AKWA Guesthouse is perfectly located at the beginning of the center in Chaweng on Samui. Impressively decorated in funky pop art, style, all rooms features different decoration. No matter if you decide to stay in a Standard Room or if you go for the exclusive Penthouse, you will always be amazed of the unique décor. Even we consider ourselves a guesthouse, we offer all services and facilities of an up market hotel.
Just across the road from the beach and a few steps from busy shopping and nightlife center is on the ground floor Akwa’s restaurant it is one of the most well-known places to be seen. Watch a funny movie on our huge TVs, enjoy our all-day-long breakfast or choose a shake and other delicious culinary options.
Accommodation and facilities:
This was a true nightmare, worst location, the pool was un usable to say the least and the room..... There was dripping water above a window, mould on the ceiling, the room smells of damp, it was dirty and grimy, and when we complained to the receptionist they were very un helpfull and said there was nothing they could do. The minimum stay is 7 nights, this is how they trap you because no-one would ever stay this long otherwise, we lost our money and found another hotel in a better location.
Reservation service:
It was easy to book but the pictures were truly misleading, it was more like a hostel than a hotel, also the description was misleading.

Accommodation and facilities:
Чисто,в номере есть питьевая вода (помимо мини-бара),кофе,чай,чайник - отлично,ненавязчивый персонал.Единственное но - излишне сексуальная направленность во всей отделке номера и нет собственного пляжа - надо проходить через чужой ресорт.Чтобы избежать любопытных глаз из отеля напротив(или с улицы)необходимо задергивать шторы даже днем.А в целом очень подходит на(пару дней)для тех,кто не смог сразу подобрать отель,либо для приехаших за приключениями.
Reservation service:
Заказали бронь на намер за пару часов до выезда,нам все подтвердили,по приезду не было никаких проблем.Все очень просто.
