Reviews
The Anantara Lawana was simply amazing! We stayed for 5 days, and everything from the rooms to the food was of the highest quality. The grounds are spectacular, right on the beach but with plenty of space. The staff also were completely accommodating at all times, and created a really lovely atmosphere around the hotel. Chaweng town is super accessible, about a 15 minute walk away or a 5 minute taxi. Overall, we had an incredible experience and would certainly recommend!
This was my first visit to Ko Samui, as well as my first stay at this resort, and overall it has been a remarkable experience. From the very first moment, the beauty of the place, the warm welcome, the quality of the services, and the high level of cleanliness all stand out, reflecting the resort management’s attention to the finest details. The staff are kind and professional, always welcoming guests with a smile and a friendly attitude, which makes the stay even more comfortable and enjoyable. As for the only remarks, the villa prices are relatively high, and the room size seems small compared to the value of the stay. Overall, the experience has been wonderful so far, and I would confidently recommend this resort, especially for those seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and excellent service.
We stayed in the bungalow with a pool and swing. Rooms are clean and comfortable. We enjoyed just sitting on the lounge chairs by the private pool and realaxing. The food in the restaurants was delicious and the variety is outstanding. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Location is great, can walk to stores and market. Right on the beach, so you can take a dip or kayak.
From check-in to check-out, our experience at Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort was truly exceptional. The resort design is beautiful, and the natural touches, such as the fish ponds and the presence of friendly animals, added a very special and charming atmosphere. Our room was outstanding, and we really enjoyed spending time by our private pool. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our stay. The location is also excellent, as it is close to the airport and surrounded by many restaurants and shops. A couple of areas could make the experience even better. Since we spent a lot of time outside our room by the private pool, it would be helpful to provide more mosquito repellent solutions in the outdoor area and keep them running throughout the day. Also, while the resort is located by the beach, the natural terrain makes it difficult to enjoy snorkeling directly from the property. It would be a great added value if the hotel could arrange a complimentary boat transfer to nearby snorkeling spots. Overall, it was a beautiful, relaxing, and memorable stay, and we truly enjoyed every moment.
We’ve just finished a 9-night stay at Anantara Lawana as part of our honeymoon, and we genuinely couldn’t recommend it more highly. Of course, the resort itself is beautiful. The setting, rooms, food, facilities, and attention to detail are all exactly what you would hope for from a luxury resort. However, what truly made our stay special was the people. Every member of staff we encountered was genuinely warm, friendly, and welcoming. We were always greeted with a smile and asked how our day had been or what plans we had. Before long, staff members had learned our names and would stop to chat whenever we crossed paths around the resort. From reception to the breakfast team, restaurant staff, housekeeping, turn-down service, and even the gardening staff, everyone was incredibly polite and seemed to take real pride in making guests feel welcome. It’s rare to stay somewhere where the service feels so genuine rather than scripted, but that was exactly our experience at Lawana. My wife and I could not have been happier with our stay, and it was the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. Thank you to everyone at Anantara Lawana for making it such a memorable experience.
