beautiful property, the room and view were beautiful and super comfortable especially the bed! very very friendly staff (big shout out and huge thank you to chris and cherry) food and drinks were good. close to thong sala

we were given a room near the breezeway from the restaurant down on the 2nd floor, and there was so much banging and moving things around in the early morning which woke us up grumpy. in a peaceful location like this you want to wake up to birds chirping not plates and chairs banging. also, a major downside was the amount of sunbeds at the pool, we were never able to get one because there were only 8. we sat on the floor which was very uncomfortable as we were coming for a relaxing stay. there is alot of space to add many extra sunbeds and i hope this is taken into consideration because the view from the pool and roof top is breathtaking and paying customers should be able to sit and relax on sunbeds.

The highlight of this hotel was the exceptional service—the staff was incredibly caring, attentive, and always ready to help. The hotel is modern and beautifully designed, with a stunning rooftop pool and restaurant offering amazing views. The breakfast was great, and the coffee served at the table was the best we had in Thailand!

The breakfast could offer more variety, as a significant portion of the buffet was dedicated to salad ingredients. The Junior Suite was nicely decorated but felt a bit small, with no comfortable place to sit on the balcony and weak water pressure in the shower. But overall, the fantastic service far outweighed these minor issues, making it a truly enjoyable stay.

The hotel is in an excellent location, though not directly on the beach. If you plan to rent a motorbike, it’s very convenient to reach many central spots within a few minutes. The staff was friendly, the rooms were modern and beautifully designed, with a lovely green view from the window. The pool was stunning, and the price reflects good value overall.

The pool had no shaded areas, and with the hotel fully booked, there weren’t enough seating options. Breakfast was okay but not exceptional.

We had an amazing stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, even giving us a room upgrade, which made the experience even better. The hotel is perfect for couples, offering a peaceful and romantic atmosphere. The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking—stunning scenery that made the whole stay feel like a dream. Overall, this hotel is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a relaxing, intimate getaway with great service and unforgettable views. We highly recommend it!

The only downside was some bird noises at night, but honestly, it's to be expected when you're staying in the middle of the jungle. It didn't bother us too much.

Hidden gem in the middle of Phangan jungle. Varivana is an absolute sanctuary: crazy views, infinity pool, beautiful rooftop and super super staff always willing to help (Special thanks to Chan, Bryan and Chris!) Super good breakfast in the rooftop, beautiful views and lobby. Location is not convenient, but you know it as you have stunning views and a super chill atmosphere. Don’t expect to go anywhere by walk and rent a motorbike for your whole stay (I would suggest renting it in other place if you stay more than 2 days, as hotel prices are a bit expensive). Rooms are super super big and spacious, we only missed a sofa or something to put or things on. Bed is great!

Only bad thing was that rooms are not soundproofed so could hear everything happening on the outside, plus there is like a space in the door so insects can come inside the room. We were in the lowest floor and we could hear a lot of noise from the crickets. Either way, it was amazing and we would go back for sure when in Phangan. Thank you Varivana!!! ❤️

We were at this Hotel for about 12 days. The location is perfect. Not too far away from beach and main city on the island. You need a scooter tho cause theres no restaurant or shop near the hotel. But then again its very calm and you hear the jungle sound in the morning. :) And the hotel staff was amazing! Especially BamBam! He was treating customers with empathy and going the extra mile to meet all our needs! If its tips about events, locations or anything, he is your guy! Thanks again for that amazing stay!

The Hotel could install some sheets or sun cover on the roof to have more shade to be able to eat also at noon on the roof, else its too hot. Same at the pool area.

our stay at the resort was special. We were able to enjoy the best view in a long time and had the beautiful infinity pool to ourselves in the evening hours. But above all we liked the service of the resort! Jewelery is a diamond in the truest sense. She translated for us and stood up for a lost cell phone. She was a huge help to us and you could always ask her for advice. The rest of the service, especially in the restaurant, was also excellent. The rooms are nice and clean.

Only a little more space for suitcases and cosmetics would be beneficial.

The hotel is really nicely designed and the views are amazing. The breakfast was faboulus, they even had vegetarian and vegan options! The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly. We loved the location, it was close to everything yet a bit removed so it was very peaceful. We were really pleased that the staff picked us up at the pier and then we rented the motorcycle there, so all the logistics were very straightforward. I would definitely recommend staying here :)

Everything looks very nice on pictures and is very modern, but the value for money is not that great compared to other hotels in similar price range in Koh Phangan/Samui area. The hotel needs a bit of better up-keeping, walls could use a new layer or paint for example. We didn’t use the pool at all, because the water was so smelly.

Amazing property, for all people complaining about the stairs and size of the room or the breakfast. This is absolutely not true. The stairs are ok, there is an elevator, there is enough shade in the rooftop, the breakfast is amazingly broad and diversified, the rooms are super clean and spatious enough. For the people that say it’s far away from everything, your in Thailand. Rent a scooter. If you want everything from walking distance go to a all in hotel in bodrum, this location is absolutely perfect. Thanks again for the amazing days. The team was also amazing and willing to help with everything. People that complain about this place are nuts. 1 thing I agree upon is that drinks and foods is pricy, but there are enough alternatives to go to. It’s a boutique hotel what do you expect? I will be back!

Great.

The hotel's staff was very professional and pleasent, especially the resturant's staff. The breakfast was delicious and provided fresh cooked eggs and coffee. The rooms and the facilities were clean and the pool was nice with a good view.

The lighting in the room wasn't very good. you could open the drapes but the room would be very hot as it's facing the sunlight. There weren't many seating areas near the pool, and even though it was a no smoking area a lot of people were smoking near the pool which wasn't very pleasent. There weren't any staff members in the pool area at all.
