Situated in the heart of Chaweng, Chaweng Regent Beach Resort is heralded for its prime location, offering a tranquil and romantic atmosphere amidst lush landscapes, despite occasional night-time rowdiness. Guests commend the resort's cleanliness and well-kept facilities, while the rooms are generally liked for their size and design, though some inconsistency in housekeeping has been mentioned.
Service is largely applauded for its professionalism, though not without a few hiccups in consistency. While the amenities, including gardens, pools, and beach access, are widely praised, concerns about value and additional costs are noted by some guests.

I stayed at Chaweng Regent for 4 nights with my fiancé in their Deluxe Room with 1 King Bed, we are in our 30’s.
This is an amazing and beautiful resort with great amenities, in the perfect location!
Private access to the beach with guests-only beach chairs available right on the beach.
2 swimming pools, one has a small kiddie pool and the other has a pool bar. Lots of chairs available around both pools.
The resort is located on the main road so as soon as you walk out from the lobby, you get infinite options for dining and shopping.
There’s lots of mosquitos, bring bug spray!!
My fiancé really enjoyed the pond full of fish where he got to feed the fishes.
Breakfast buffet was just alright with limited options. But their restaurant has ocean view so I can’t complain!
Clean room with a large bed. Rainfall shower head was incredible!!
I appreciate how eco-friendly the hotel is... no plastic bottles of shampoo and body wash/lotion. Q-tips and cotton rounds were packaged in cardboard boxes. And laundry bags were canvas. Refillable glass water bottles were provided each day. I love how they’re doing their part to reduce plastic in and around the room!

There are very few absolute beachfront Villas on the Chewang Beach strip, but this is one of them. We decided at the last minute to revisit Koh Samui for New Years and managed to find the perfect room at this awesome resort We previously stayed in the Presidential Pool Villa at the Sareeraya Villas & Suites which is also beachfront but maybe 800m further away from Chewang Beach. I prefer this area as it's right in the middle of all the action with plenty of restaurants, shops and a large market directly across the road. There are 6 Royal Villas in total, however only 2 of them are absolute beachfont (Villas 303 and 304) We stayed in 303 which I think is the pick of all the villas at this resort. You also get a great ocean breeze that makes life comfortable as it's noticeably hotter without the breeze once you start walking back towards the Villa behind. Your own private gazebo right on the water is a great for spot for chilling out and relaxing . Although you don't get a private pool, the beach is right in front of you and the main resort pool is literally 10 steps away. There's a massage place on the beach 10 steps in the other direction that give great massages cheap as chips - 400 Baht /hr. (less than AUD $20) All of us had at least 1 every day. Breakfast at the seaside restaurant was great and the free mini bar was a nice touch If you want luxury absolute beachfront at Chewang Beach, you can't go past Villa 303 at this resort

Firstly, I must say that I did like the hotel itself. The pool area and beach are good, and the rooms are spotlessly clean (if a little dated). In addition, the staff were really friendly with my daughter and the playroom was great if you could get in there when it wasn't too busy and wild.
Our experience was soured on checkout when we were presented with our bill. The total was presented for our bar tab and as my husband put in his credit card, I did some quick maths and told him to stop as there was no way the total was correct (we'd only been having a fresh coconut here and there and mainly used cash at the bar). I asked them to add up the receipts in front of me, and within about 30 seconds they presented a new total that was somewhat cheaper. It was as if they had a backup invoice ready to go, as there's no way they added it up that quickly. The new invoice had additional bar charges on that didn't tally with the individual receipts. I queried this again and they looked shifty and continued to collude in Thai. Third time lucky, the invoice was finally correct and I tapped my credit card. I was prompted to put my pin in, so I asked to see the total on the hand held machine the receptionist was hiding under her desk. When I did this, she cancelled the transaction and said "I'll just put it in again," which makes me think they were still trying to overcharge us. They'd also tried to charge my mother in law for a taxi ride she hadn't taken so I'd advise all guests to check their invoive thoroughly when they check out.
Something else that had irked me throughout the holiday was when we had paid cash around the pool, bearing in mind that there is a service charge on the total, many of the staff would say "shall I bring the change?" even if the change was as much as the total cost, (such as giving 100 baht for a 40baht bottle of water). I always tip good service but I just thought this was awkward and unprofessional, so would advise the management to train their staff regarding transaction etiquette.
I don't think we would return to the hotel, based on our checkout experience, which is a shame as it was an otherwise pleasant stay.

Dear RachelD133, Thank you for choosing our resort as your holiday destination and for sharing your detailed experience. Firstly, we appreciate your positive words about our cleanliness and friendly staff. However, I am shocked to hear about your experience at check out and the discomfort it caused you. I would like to apologize about this. I appreciate you bringing this issue to my attention, and I can assure you steps will be taken to investigate this further and to better train our staff. Both behaviors that you reported are incongruent with our high service standards, and we hope you can give us another chance to show you our improvement.

This hotel is in a good location in Charweng easy access to everything, but the room we booked was not the room we got, check the fine print of your booking they can do it. We came to veg out and were able to do even if the venue is a little dated. The New Years banquet and entertainment was great a smorgasbord layout easy to get to from seafood to meats vegetables and salads, but the highlight was the deserts Room. Overall fine.

This Ressort has seriously been hit by Thai beach erosion. Approximately 1m sand height is missing, which makes the beach practically inexistent.
In consequence sun beds at the two pools are overcommitted and there’s a daily race to pre-occupy most of them. At the main pool, with the lack of distance between sun beds, you get quite in touch (physically spoken) with other guests, wanted or not.
Looking at the original facilities (some in beetween taken out of service) the targeted category may have been upper class with a good touch of wellness (there even were saunas at the beginning).
Probably due to the vicious circle of disappearing beach and the consequent “people concentration” the Ressort seems to have changed the targeted customer base towards more economy and partying oriented categories. Chaweng Road in front is a quite populated Party strip. Some of the customers even show manners you’d never think possible. The leftovers on some tables at the breakfast buffet tell sad stories. Maybe this is a reason why we had to make a high deposit (first time ever) for possible consumption on a totally prepaid trip.
The facilities and rooms needing a high level of upkeep (and cleaning which sometimes is a little bit neglected) are probably difficult to maintain with the number of staff present. Also, the staff does not actually enforce the hotel’s house rules which sometimes leads to very noisy or agitated situations.
The staff itself is very kind and as helpful as possible, but mostly overcommitted too.
I’ve put some pictures from the actual beachfront situation (mid tide) to document the beach erosion situation. Check them against the official ones from the homepage.

Dear 719georgb, As the General Manager of the resort I am disappointed to read in your review that you and your family did not had an enjoyable stay at our resort. Your feedback is extremely important to us and I can assure you that we will review all your comments to ensure that the situations you mentioned do not occur in the future to other guests staying with us. If ever you are back in Samui, we would be delighted to welcome you again to Chaweng Regent Beach Resort Resort, all our team would ensure to change your perception and I am confident we could provide a memorable stay with us. In regards to the "beach erosion", it is a yearly recurring phenomenon that for a couple of months the sand washes away, after which it will be re-deposited automatically. I remain at your entire disposal. Best regards, Simon Hoekstra General Manager Chaweng Regent Beach Resort

This resort deserves WELL over 5 stars!! My husband and I came here for our honeymoon, and Chaweng Regent Beach Resort delivered an amazing and romantic experience. Tucked away in an ideal location, you are close enough to the hustle and bustle, food, nightlife and shopping that you can take a short walk, yet once you walk through the entrance the location is peaceful and feels like a remote, romantic get away.
The resort itself is peaceful, absolutely gorgeous, and incredibly romantic. And for the adventurous, there are tucked away treasures and private spots scattered throughout. The lanscaping is luscious and tropical, and the bungalows are luxurious and private. Ours had a private entrance and small fenced in yard, with a semi-outdoors hotub.
The beach right in front of the property is so gorgeous and pristine it did not even feel real, nor did pictures do it justice! We walked up and down the beach, and the section in front of this hotel had the cleanest crystal clear waters and sand. Further down sometimes there was more seaweed and grasses, but this area was perfect.
The staff and service were incredible! Staff were kind, and surprised us wih a few extra niceties for our honeymoon (if you go for your honeymoon, mention it in the notes when you book your stay and when you arrive!). We were a little hesistant to honeymoon at a property that was not adults-only, but it was never problem! It seems there are more kid friendly areas and that is typically where they stayed.
We are not lounge-by-the-pool vacationers, so I can not speak on that much, except to say that there are two big pools. One is located right off of restaurant and seemed to be where families congragated and people liked to sunbathe and hangout more. The other seemed a little bit more private and was more of an adult friendly area. The view from the central pool is of the prisitine beach.
The prices are very reasonable, the food is great, and I believe you get great value and access to beautiful amentities for the price. Extras like the beachfront candlelit dinner, massage packages, and meals were all of great quality, were priced very well- not too high or too low- and were well worth what we paid.
We did walk around and look at some of the other hotels we had considered, and were SO glad that we went with this one. Staying further down the street would have also meant being right behind all the clubs and bars. Chaweng Beach is a geat area if you want variety, but if you are looking for quiet in the evenings, you want to be further down. This property let us be within walking distance when we wanted to go out, and then have peace and tranquility away from it all when we didn't.
The room was comfortable and romantic with relaxing Thai design elements and lot's of natural light, and the location is both tranquil and convenient. The staff is amazing and kind, and Aui in particular showed us the most amazing hospitality. Just ask, and they will give you ALL the tips, help you get a cab or other tansporation, give you recommendations, etc. I recommend them to EVERYONE traveling to Koh Samui. Our stay here could not have been more perfect, I would give 10 stars if I could!

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort is one of the best on Chaweng Beach. It was our fifth stay in approximately 10 years. Best location on the whole Chaweng to find many restaurants and shops outside on the road behind the resort. The beach is clean and behind a natural breakwaters. Staff very friendly as usual in Thailand. Only the Garden Pool is sometimes crowded with drunken and very loud undisciplined “guests “ without education.

Hotel is both on the main strip(the front entrance) & also on the beach. The rooms are a mixture of refurbished & not refurbished, they are all spacious & spotlessly clean.Most rooms accept UK 3 pin plugs without adapters. There is a safe, hairdryer, drawers, wardrobes & plenty of towels, including beach towels available by the main pool. Beds are huge & comfortable, we had a massive walk in shower as well as a huge round spa bath. The beach is maintained by the hotel who rake it evey morning .The people of Thailand are the friendliest I have ever met, this includes the hotel staff who cannot do enough for you. We were here for a wedding which was both organised & executed flawlessly, nothing was too much trouble. I would like to call out Air & Jet for their excellent service, along with Lin from the bar & restaurant who helped us learn a different Thai word each day. The food in both the hotel & Thailand in general is very good. The mosquitoes are not an issue like some people make out. I would highly recommend this as place to stay. Thoroughly enjoyable stay

The hotel is beautiful. The grounds are tropical with lots of beautiful corners and places to sit and enjoy. Very close to chaweng beach and lots of restaurants and a 7/11 across the street. The beach is not too nice but we walked five minutes to chawang garden and had our massage and coconuts while enjoying their beach chairs all day.

My husband and brother in law are big fitness enthusiasts, who said they would train everyday but only went once as we were having too much fun to go to gym! But they said the gym was great. The aircon is very effective, we were there when the heat felt like 45 degrees with the humidity levels at times.
Thailand is very safe, the Thai nationals are some of the gentlest and most respectful characters I’ve come across around the globe. Koh samui as an island is extremely safe, we basically strolled the streets in a bikini top and shorts as it was so hot in May - as a woman coming from South Africa, I’ve never felt safer.
The newly renovated is Grand Royal Suite Beachfront. For all inclusive package, could you please advise your email then we will send the package detail to your email directly.
