Poppies Samui
Thailand, South East Asia
Chaweng
This Thai-style hotel is very nicely located on a secluded side of the south end of Chaweng beach. This beach resort offers its guests the best sandy beach of the Gulf of Siam. The town centre is approximately a 5-minute walk from the premises, where a variety of bars, restaurants and night clubs can be found. Koh Samui Airport is 7 km away.
Poppies is the very first hotel on Samui to be going green in terms of Plastic Bottles. We will provide each guest with a water bottle made from stainless steel and logo with Poppies and Samui. This water bottle may be filled up at Poppies resort and more than a dozen other cafes and shops on Samui for no charge. There is a one time charge for the bottle of 220 baht. The bottle may be taken home by the guest as a souvenir.

A slice of heaven in chaotic Chaweng
We had struggled to find somewhere that looked perfect and had initially ruled out Chaweng as being too busy but read that the Anavana end of the beach was quiet. The area outside the hotel is what you would expect from a small Thai town, laundry, massage etc. I had a good pedicure in the place directly opposite.
It’s about 10 mins into chaotic central Chaweng and fisherman’s village.
The hotel itself is beautiful. Once you enter the reception area the staff are warm, friendly and efficient. The grounds are spectacular, constantly being maintained with a little stream running through with HUGE koi in several pool areas.
We had bungalow 103, near pool and restaurant but set back enough to feel really private. The bungalows are a good size with nice terrace area and chairs. Bed comfortable and generous bathroom with covered outside opening into bathroom which was quirky.
It right on the beach so having breakfast and lunch is a pleasure. Breakfast staff lovely, Lek remembered our drinks order after just one day. Happy hour 5-7pm
Good value. Loved our bar man but didn’t get his name - he makes the best white wine coolers. Beach access, there are plenty of sunbeds, towels provided and iced water regularly topped up. Beautiful beach and sea warm. Food in restaurant was good with guest discount.
We also had a spa massage which was also lovely and the staff super friendly.
We couldn’t have a late checkout but a shower room and towels were provided. The hotel also provides complimentary airport pick up and drop off.
We had been travelling for 2 weeks prior to arriving in Koh Samui so this was the perfect chilled end to our trip.
Not connected to hotel at all but we did see iguanas being used as photography props in fisherman’s village. Please be aware that tourists should not support this exploitation of animals.

Fantastic stay
Fantastic location and place. Best on the beach. Calm and quiet. Good service. Nice rooms. Good staff.
Absolutely fabulous
I have never experienced such a wonderful resort as Anavana Samui. I couldn’t really believe all the excellent reviews we read before going but they are all true. The whole place is so relaxing with the gardens with plants and streams running throughout and a superb beach with the shallow and warm sea. The rooms were perfect for the 3 of us and my 6ft teenage son found the 3rd bed good. The mosquito nets on the door worked well. All the food we ate was really good. The location is great as it is at the end of the busy resort but a £5 taxi ride or 20minute walk into the centre with lots of restaurants, shops, bars etc. we mainly ate at the ones close to the hotel and the food was excellent. We used grab taxi to get around and it was really cheap. If (when) we next go to koi samui we would not stay anywhere else. If it wasn’t for the long journey from the Uk I would go every year.

A Little Piece of Paradise at Anavana!
A Little Piece of Paradise at Anavana!
For the third time this year, my family and I have stayed at the wonderful Anavana Hotel!
From the very first minute, we feel like we've arrived in paradise. Every inch of the property is like a beautiful tropical garden, filled with birdsong and the wonderful fragrance of lush greenery and colorful flowers.
The staff are incredibly caring and always ready to help with a smile, no matter what you need.
The atmosphere at Anavana is unlike any other hotel. It feels like stepping into another world—peaceful, cozy, delicious, and wonderfully warm in every sense of the word.
For us, Anavana is our second home, and we are already looking forward to coming back again next year!
