I just had a fabulous holiday at the Grand Centara on Chaweng Beach in Koh Samui. The entertainment team, especially Dino, Ana, Asha, and Dalma, made the experience unforgettable with their engaging activities. The hotel facilities were excellent, and the service from Ploy at the Coast bar was top-notch. However, the rooms felt small and could use some updates, and the housekeeping service was sometimes slow. Overall, it was still a wonderful getaway and I would highly recommend it.

Our stay at Centara Reserve Samui was truly delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views and the grandeur of the property. The room was spacious and clean, with a magnificent balcony that offered breathtaking views of the garden and sea. The dining options were varied and delicious, although I would have loved to see more options for breakfast. The only downside was that the beach conditions were a bit rough during our visit, but the pools were lovely. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we would gladly return.

I had a pretty good stay at this hotel, with a great location that's handy for everything in Chaweng. The pool area was fantastic, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. However, I was surprised by the deposit required at check-in, which felt a bit high considering we had already paid for our room. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with a few areas for improvement.
