Quaint old Thai village feel resort, great location on beach between jet ski lanes. Good breakfast choices. Lovely staff.

Sun lounges on beach too crammed in together, would be better spaced across the entire frontage. Disliked other guests smoking in beach lounge area, I thought this was illegal to smoke on beaches in Thailand? Bed not very comfortable, pillows especially bad.

If you're looking for a lush tropical paradise in the heart of Chaweng, look no further than Buri Rasa. This boutique resort is bang on the best strip of the best beach in Koh Samui — soft white sand, turquoise waters, and postcard-perfect sunsets. With just 33 rooms, Buri Rasa is a tranquil oasis, impeccably maintained and exuding charm at every corner. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated, and come with all the modern comforts you could ask for. What truly sets this resort apart is the warmth and professionalism of the staff. General Manager Mr. Manfred and his dedicated team go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels valued and pampered. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality make all the difference. The location is simply unbeatable — right in the heart of Chaweng, yet tucked away from the noisy nightlife. You're steps away from great restaurants, cafes, and shops, but once inside the resort, you're enveloped in peace and serenity. I cannot recommend Buri Rasa enough. This place is a true gem. Book it with your eyes closed — you won't regret it!

Buri Rasa was an incredible hotel with wonderful people! Like everywhere in Thailand, the people are extremely kind and sweet! The hotel is very clean, carefully maintained in every detail, and the staff is super attentive! C2, Keiley, Sima, Derrik, Nan, Arm, Cheva, Prem, Boom, the gardeners – everyone was perfect! Amazing breakfast, delicious lunch options, great drinks, a stunning beach. Chaweng Beach has a lot of shops, restaurants, massage places, and a shopping area, all within walking distance. We already miss it and are planning our next visit to Samui and, of course, to Buri Rasa! Best hotel on the island! 10 out of 10! Thank you all for so much love during the days we stayed with you!

Absolutely nothing! Everything was more than perfect!

This hotel is a quiet sanctuary nestled right in the mix of Chaweng. Prior to arrival, our concierge was responsive and helpful in insuring we had everything we needed for our arrival. Being that we were traveling here from halfway around the world, this already made me feel confident in our decision to book our stay here. The staff is incredibly diligent about providing the best experience possible! The meals we had here were delicious- provided in a serene setting surrounded by greenery and looking out onto the ocean. We came to Koh Samui looking for a relaxing and restorative visit, and our stay and Buri Rasa provided that perfectly! The beach immediately in front of the property was pristine, as were the rest of the grounds (as well as the rooms). More impressive than everything, however, is the impeccable service provided by the staff. They were welcoming, kind, and truly went above and beyond. We will definitely be booking another stay here!

There isn't anything I can think of.

I loved everything about Buri Rasa. The resort is located on Chaweng Beach, with a beautiful beachfront and within walking distance to nearby places. It's also very close to Haven, the community area and superstore. The atmosphere of the resort is amazing, quiet and peaceful. The resort's design is unique and includes all the necessary facilities. The room type we booked featured a traditional Thai water jar, giving you a chance to experience how Thai people used to bathe in the past. They also provide sarongs for both men and women in the bathroom. Every night, we received coconut sugar taffy as part of the turndown service, we definitely saved it for a morning treat! Each evening, the resort also hosts activities such as a martini party or a fire show. If you're looking for beach activities, you can find some on the beach near Buri Rasa. The staff and the general manager are extremely friendly and helpful. They provided excellent service with big smiles and joyful energy every time we saw them. Buri Rasa is definitely perfect for those seeking a private and relaxing vacation.

The AC in our room is pretty loud.

We liked everything. We were welcomed very warm, the atmosphere everywhere in the hotel was very nice and calm, the people were so kind and ready to support with everything. The surroundings were beautiful, a lot of trees, palms, flowers, running water... ! The room which we had was having a garden with small pool, sundecks , nice sofa and flowers. The beach in front was beautiful, with nice sand and clean. The breakfast was nice, and served in a beautiful surroundings. The lady with the massages returned my back to life - she was amazing!

There was a smell of mold in the room which was the only thing that annoyed me.

We had a wonderful stay at Buri Rasa Samui. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and very comfortable. The staff went above and beyond, everyone was super kind, welcoming, and helpful with anything we needed. The location is great: it's on a quieter stretch of Chaweng Beach, but still walking distance from restaurants, shops, and everything else. The beach itself is lovely, with lots of sunbeds and umbrellas. Breakfast was nice – fresh and tasty, though the variety could be better. One thing to note: the hotel isn’t very stroller-friendly, with a lot of steps and uneven paths.

A small boutique and beautifully traditional property, with great and friendly service. Breakfast was outstanding and the massages and treatments were well priced. I recommend the fire show (on twice weekly) at the resort.

Only downside was certain guests placing towels on sun beds very early (despite signs indicating this was not allowed). Also, not a criticism, but for awareness, the hotel is located very centrally, which means rooms facing away from the beach can often get noisier with music from the nightlife. If this is an issue, ask for a room at the front of the property facing the sea.

Delicious breakfast every morning with heaps of variety which changed daily. The resort is a in a prime spot with the beach straight out the front. Great pool! Loungers were excellent with plenty of natural shade for those that wanted it. The road was bustling but it was very quiet in the resort. Loved it. We had a pool villa which we loved. Just a small thing. Our room had a ceiling fan which we prefer over running air con at night which we loved.

Nothing we didn't love. Staff were excellent

A very lovely experience as soon as we arrived at the hotel. The paths and gardens leading to the beach were beautiful and impeccably maintained. The rooms were tastefully decorated and calming, including the terrace and bathroom. Breakfast was great and the staff extremely helpful. This is a small relaxed and quiet hotel, but if you want action it's on the doorstep.

I would have liked a bed side table on both sides of the bed to put a drink, phone etc. This is compromised by the sofa. The bed was great, super comfortable though so small criticism.
