Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
We spent six nights at the Chaweng Regent. My wife and I had a Premier Room which was a very nice beach resort room with a huge bathroom. The boys had a Deluxe Room which was very 3 star. I had stayed there in 97 in what is now the Regency Wing and this still looks the better part of the resort especially with the two pools located here. the location is great on the beach and the street. The better restaurants are on the beach v s the street and definitely try Dr Frog s on the Cliff.
The service was good most of the time not that it was a great worry when it wasn t. More inexperienced than problematic. The food at the Resort was excellent except for breakfast which lacked quality and selection, plus they would run out. Very nice pool, grounds at the Resort, and the place is kept very clean ( including rooms ), even though the Resort is looking a little tired.
We had a very enjoyable stay and would recommend to stay there for a family holiday, and I suspect that the Regency Wing has nicer rooms.
Definitely go scootering around the Island on a dry day, go and see the Tiger Show, Venture out to the nicer restaurants which are still cheap but excellent food...Red Snapper, Dr Frog s, lay out by the beach and pool, eat dinner on the beach, light a wish hot air balloon and set it adrift.

Excellent service, provided me with a much better deal than the local travel agent.

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
Really nice and helpful staff. Expensive restaurant compared to others, but also special and with nice live music and large buffet. The best location right on the beach and nice view from the restaurant in the morning and at night. We had a quite room, but the balcony was no use, no sun or view. But still really nice hotel, but we expected a more luxourius room, considering the price and expected upgrade for honeymooners, but I am not sure we got it! But anyway it is a very romantic place to stay.

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
A fantastic holiday resort with staff who could not do enough for you, no overcrowding at the pools, fantistic food and excellent spa resort. Although we intially booked a superior bungalow, we changed rooms during our stay and would highly recommend the deluxe villas. An excellent holiday all round and would not hesitate in staying again.

Booking system simple and troublefree - excellent.

NOT A 4 STAR HOTEL.
IT SHOULD BE ONLY 3 STAR.

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
I would strongly recommend this hotel/resort to any of my friends or fellow travellers. The hotel was immaculately clean and the staff were some of the friendliest that I have ever encountered in Thailand. The food in the restaurants was excellent and the buffet breakfast served every morning was delicious and the various choices ensured that any appetite would be satisfied. The beach in front of the hotel was wonderful and the two swimming pools ensured sufficient space for everyone to enjoy a relaxing spot to sun tan or simply relax. I can t say enough about this hotel and I would recommend it to anyone, whether travelling as a couple or as a family.

Although, we had a problem with our first hotel on Koh Samui (Samui Orchid Resort), your staff responded immediately to my request for an alternate booking and within a couple of hours, all of the arrangements were made...including transport between the two hotels. I want to thank you very much for your help, fast response and professionalism. I will certainly be using your website when I return to Thailand with my family next year.

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
Hotel is sited on the beach with good amenities. However, cottage rooms remind you of Japanese hotels with hardly room to swing a cat. We put our luggage into our room and went out to process film. On our return 20 minutes later, the cottage was reeking of sewage smell. On our complaint, cleaning staff came to survey the situation who then called the reception to confirm the incident. We were then offered another cottage which was not as well placed. This took nearly 11/2 hours to resolve. We requested an upgrade or some compensation, i.e.Dinner for 2. Eventually the Duty Manageress came in to resolve the matter. Unfortunately, She was very cold and unhelpful and suggested the smell had gone,(the cleaning staff sprayed the cottage with strong perfume which masked the smell momentarily),the best she could do was to cancel the booking and let us look for another hotel. As we were staying for 1 night only due to non availability, we had no option but to stay at the hotel. Incidentily, when later in the evening we passed by the original cottage, the whole area smelled horribly. Drainage system in the 2nd cottage was also very poor. My view is that perhaps the hotels needs to overhaul its Drainage system.
Hotel has an excellent swiming pool and jacuzzi. Apart from the Manageress, staff were very kind and helpful.

Excellent!

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
Although the (bath)rooms are a bit outdated the Chaweng Regent Hotel is a perfect location for a relaxed vacation with very good service and very friendly personnel. It s location, right in the middle of Chaweng, gives easy access to all the shops, restaurants, bars, etc. but without the disturbance of the noise going along with that. I would certainly return to this hotel on my next trip to Samui

Booking is very user friendly and efficient, nothing to complain at all

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
A lovely hotel right on the beach,service was very good and nothing was too much trouble for the attentitive staff. The hotel has beautiful gardens and pools and the walk throughthe garens up to the main road was always a pleasure. We stayed in a deluxe room which was very comfortable and clean with a lovely housemaid who came in every day. We would recommend this hotel without hesitation.

Booking service was quick, easy and reliable. Would definately use again
