Absolutely sensational resort The only negative is the lack of beach chairs which is a problem only if you dont have a each front villa. The resteraunt is sensational for breakfast but give dinner a miss. The local village rocks with great food , luna and JIP shop is up there with some of the 5 star resteraunts I've eaten... More

My husband and I stayed at Rasananda as part of our honeymoon trip to Thailand and it was undoubtedly the highlight of our trip. After 3 nights in busy Bangkok, we were met at Koh Samui airport by Rasananda staff and transported in a lovely air conditioned vehicle (provided with cold towels and water) the short distance to the pier...

We stayed here in April 2011 for the first part of our honeymoon on the recommendation of a good friend. It's my perfect hotel. To put it in context we booked last minute and could only stay 7 nights. The hotel we moved on to was the 6 Senses on Koh Samui...this is one of the best hotels in the... More

I live since 6 years in Thailand and saw a lot of beaches during that time but I have to say at the Anantara Rasananda you can find Paradise. I’m working for the same industry which makes me even to a more difficult guest but I just loved it. Great room product especially the Pool Villas in front of the... More

Am currently staying at this amazing resort with my partner and we were feeling a little trepidation about coming here after reading some recent reviews with some negative comments. Our stay however, has been amazing. Staying in a lagoon pool villa which in our view is better than beachfront one as we are still just steps away from the beach... More

I only booked at the last minute to go across from Koh Samui and we had missed the last ferry so the hotel arranged a private speed boat for us. From the moment we arrived at the pier to catch the boat to our arrival at the beach the staff and reception we received was first class. The walk to... More

If you are looking for an island paradise, this is the real thing. Imagine a villa with a private pool on one of the most gorgeous beaches in Thailand. And just behind the hotel is a little village where you can get delicious Thai food, drinks, massages, etc at a fraction of the cost of the hotel. This allows you... More

The remoteness of this resort meant a STUNNING and private beach, and the overall small size made the feeling intimate and relaxing. This also meant we didn't have lots of options for food other than on-site dining or the small town nearby (walking distance.) The tiny shops had DELICIOUS and cheap, homemade Thai food which we thoroughly enjoyed: we stayed... More
