Absolutely fabulous. Having travelled extensively, I can truly say this resort is top class. i would find it difficult to make suggestions on how to improve our stay> The guest relations manager, Dimitry, was ever present and always willing to assist and chat. Nothing was ever a problem. All of the staff are amazing. Of note Aom and Nan at Hue were extremely good. The resort has a relationship with a hospitality school in Paris and we were extremely lucky to have Viktor, Abel, CC and Nelia working on secondment there when we were in residence. They are young, bright and fantastic hospitality workers as well as being great people. We will be back of course!!

“Quality and very comfortable hotel, great staff!”

We booked Cape Fahn via Luxury Escapes for a 10 day stay, looking for relaxation following a prior short trip to Siem Reap to see Angkor Wat so it had been 4 days of long travelling and sightseeing before reaching Koh Samui. The LE package gave us a great price with inclusive 3 course dinner or lunch at Hue, one dinner at Long Dtai, daily cocktail, return airport transfers, a massage each, free mini bar (soft drinks, beer and snacks) plus more. We chose an Ocean View Pool Villa, had requested by email and were allocated to Villa 19. For us this was a perfect choice - it has complete privacy, not overlooked at all, faces east so has a great view from the bed of the sunrise each morning. The sun then rises over the top of the villa so the sunbeds can be shaded, but this suited us fine. Maybe choose a villa facing a different direction if you want maximum direct sun. We also had a few days of rain showers and quite strong winds and being high up on the island out of direct sun the wind did swirl around and could get a bit chilly. The pool was great, in water temperature, quality and size. It was cleaned by discreet visits from the pool guy. The staff at the hotel really made it a great stay, all being very friendly and attentive. We did have a problem on the first day where the staff seemed unable to grasp that our drinks were the LE daily included cocktails and not on the happy hour deal, but the reception sorted this out and from then on there were no problems at the bars or restaurants knowing the deal we and others were on. The meal at Long Dtai was OK, but we actually preferred the menu at Hue which had plenty of Thai and international choices to not be repetitive through the 10 days. We had planned to eat some evenings at Choeng Mon restaurants but as Hue was so good we took the boat/truck over a few times to have a walk and a drink and a snack (Jumpin' Bean was the best bar we found) but were happy to eat at Hue watching the sunset and the fishermen in the bay. Their Thursday free cocktail hour guest get together was a great way to meet other guests and chat to the guest relation staff, as being mainly villa based it is a quiet resort (though obviously there is the pool and beach but we were happy to sunbathe chill at the villa). The villa's are superbly kitted out. The bed is very comfortable (and that's from a couple used to a waterbed), with a pillow and duvet menu available. The bathroom and toiletries are quality and the lounge are is a great bonus. Housekeeping is very good with daily cleaning, sheet changes every other day, turndown service, free gifts each day, fresh fruit etc. The hotel app can be used e.g. if you want ice, need any housekeeping, room service etc. I'm sure I'm missing some key points to praise but overall Cape Fahn is a great choice for a relaxing and quality time on Koh Samui.

“Has set the bar very high”

We have just arrived home after a week of luxury at Cape Fahn Hotel.

We have just arrived home after a week of luxury at Cape Fahn Hotel. The whole experience has set the bar very high and I imagine that there will be very few hotels that will be able to exceed our experience over the past week. Of course the hotel and villas are beautiful and it feels like you are miles from anything, peaceful and relaxing but what really makes the Cape Fahn stand out are the staff. Each and every one of them from the house cleaning staff to the hospitality staff and management staff impressed us with their attention to detail and friendly attitude. Of course a special mention to Angie, who went above and beyond to make our holiday a unforgettable experience.
