Central Samui Beach Resort Review

This spacious resort has larger grounds and more amenities than any other resort on Chawaeng Beach. The main building, which has the rooms, is set back behind a large field separating it from the beach. Badminton, basketball (hung from a coconut tree), and Ping-Pong cover one side of the field; a sunbathing area, which runs from the grass to the pool, occupies the other. Multiple happy hours run at different hours at the indoor, pool, and beach bars. There's an excellent Japanese restaurant, as well as two others serving Thai and Chinese dishes. The beach has a large cordoned-off swimming area to protect swimmers from Jet Skis. Rooms have hardwood floors and bathtubs with doors that open into the main body of the room.
