Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is so much better than Chaweng beach. It is much quieter, it is very clean (it was when we were here but I did read a review from someone else who experienced it differently) and the sea has, in my opinion, a gentle slope so you have to go 30 yards before it is up to your waistline. We were at the Seaview restaurant. It was excellent food and good Vue for money. The staff are amazing. We got to use their sun loungers on the beach after lunch but we also bought drinks all afternoon as to not abuse the hospitality too much.

Peaceful stretch of beach along the north coast of Samui. The waters are calm yet very nice in colour on a good day with really great view of the neighbouring Koh Phangan. Quite pleasant to take some light stroll along the beach leading up to some of the island's large resorts, albeit the sand is a little rough compared to the likes of Chaweng or Lamai. Overall, nice breezy spot for some peaceful stroll; although I'm sure it is like that for most places with social distancing / breaks enforced. Definitely great spot for photos with scenic island views.

I really like this place because of Koh Samui. Considered to be the second largest island in Thailand that is still full of charm. Spending time in Bophut is a great way to experience the local culture. The village's beachfront restaurants and pubs are the perfect place to watch the sunset.

Beautiful sandy beach with hotels and little bars to stop at. Not crowded and great for swimming and walking with your family. Highly recommend staying here if you want an uncrowded beach but still want to dine out or have a drink at a beach bar.

I walked almost the whole distance from one end of the beach to the other, making several stops for a swim.
Beautiful and clean beach, not busy at all. Very relaxing and with possibilities to find a shadow under a coconut tree.

The beach is already mega. You have to say that. Palm trees, soft sand, warm sea. That's fantastic.
Maenam, however, is very, very, very quiet. There are few choices at restaurants, supermarkets and exchange offices. Without scooters I find a bit difficult. You have to take a taxi.

Maenam Beach is my favorite place in Koh Samui. If you dont know where to stay, you should definitely try this place. The village is local and lively . We stayed at Khwan Beach resort and we really enjoyed our stay

Clean , beautiful. One of the best beaches in Koh Samui imo. Sun rise is especially beautiful. Definitely a must visit when on the island. Private access if you stay at Santiburi resort.

Clean sandy Beach, many resorts and restaurants. The beach is long enough for a run or a walk. Pets can easily roam. Reallt great sunsets every night. Water is safe to swim in, no rough waves. Usually a nice constant breeze.

I clearly do not understand those that say that this beach is beautiful. The only thing that I found nice was that it was quiet.
Apart from this it was a deserted beach, left at its own luck, full of garbages, plastic bottles, many dry and cutted trees and the sea completely foggy and dirty.
A total dissapointment for the area although I understood that everything should be good long time agao but now not.
