The hotel

When you arrive at the Six Senses Samui the view is at once exhilarating and strangely familiar. The sweeping vista of palm-clustered islands and shimmering seas brings to mind all the fantasies we have of the Orient's beaches. The resort is made up of a stunning collection of bamboo-clad villas looking out over the Gulf of Thailand. At Six Senses there are only villas, most with a private swimming pool with polished wooden floor interiors. Following the renovation, all villas are fully enclosed and air-conditioned so there are no "open-air spaces" as such and the bathroom and bedroom have a sliding door that separates them. The restaurants and bars are open pavilions, deriving their aesthetic from the communal longhouses of traditional river communities. The view, the architecture, the style and even the temperature intentionally immerse the guest in the location. This is back to nature – without a hint of roughing it. Six Senses Samui gives you everything, including a comprehensive spa that offers every conceivable treatment in Asia.

We recently returned to Six Senses for a 10-night stay, and once again, the experience was outstanding. The entire staff impressed us with their friendliness and impeccable service, making us feel like valued returning guests. A special thank you to Khun Tak, Khun Dada, and Khun Maya, whose amazing care and attention to detail made our stay truly memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and personal touches went above and beyond our expectations. This hotel not only offers great facilities but also a team that turns every visit into something special. During November, it’s worth noting that the weather can be windy. We recommend considering a villa on the north side of the property for a more sheltered and serene experience since we had a - very beautiful villa - facing south with strong wind during the night. While the resort is a heaven for relaxation and rejuvenation, weekends can occasionally be a bit livelier due to short-term guests. Unfortunately we had a very unpleasant experience with a group of 5 persons using the quite pool space for their intense Insta shooting activities without respecting the wishes from us and the other guests for rest. Unfortunately, the situation escalated, and I believe there is an opportunity to provide staff with additional training to better handle such scenarios in the future. Six Senses remains dedicated to creating a tranquil escape for those seeking peace and luxury. With its stunning setting and incredible staff, this is a destination we’ll keep returning to. Read less

Perfect location, excellent staff, can do anything to make our trip memorable. Rooms are serviced twice. Very polite and courteous staff, always greet with a smile. Luxurious spa and massage . Lena was our GEM and along with Maya did her utmost to make our stay as pleasurable as possible. Breakfast, dining on the Hill and the lunches by the beach are just too good. The Xmas eve banquet experience was exceptional. Got the Thai Lana massage from the master herself who was very knowledgable. The only downside is that the rooms esp the ocean front pool villa have 70+ small steps to do up and down every time you need to leave your room so certain level of fitness is needed. Do enquire if your room is access friendly. Also since the airport is nearby therefore the serene atmosphere is disrupted every now and then by the noise of the aircraft Read less

This is my first time staying at a six senses property and gosh I love it so much. Our Koh Samui holiday was one of the biggest holidays I was looking forward to with my husband and daughter post my twin delivery. We booked the ocean front pool villa for 4N , everything about this villa is so lovely especially the stunning view of the sea. Check in All though they have a 3pm check in policy, they very kind enough to give us the room by 12 noon. The entire check in process was so smooth, while we were waiting for our room to get ready .. Lena was kind enough to keep us entertained by taking us to the farm on the property and also to show us every amenity and facility here. Food & Beverage Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day here. So many options from smoothie bowls to local Thai breakfast. Their Thai tea will always be my favourite. Dining on the hills is such a calm and beautiful spot to dine at. Tak and the rest of the team took such good care of us especially my daughter. I miss their Tamarind Margaritas already. The other place that I really enjoyed was the restaurant by the beach.. another lovely spot on the property. Spa A 10/10 for their massages. So relaxing and the views are so stunning from here too, if you get a chance get a coconut body wrap done followed by a relaxing massage. I will be taking back a suitcase full of memories from here. 4N still don’t seem enough. I loved my time here and I’m so glad to be heading back home very relaxed. Read less

I spent two nights at Six Senses Samui late in November to celebrate my birthday. The resort is 5-star in every way. The villa was spacious and sparkling clean, the service was top-notch and food was delicious. I requested a villa surrounded by lots of trees and was not disappointed. The main pool offers breathtaking views and is long enough for lap swimming. My GEM Khun Aum was very helpful. I’m also glad that the resort has some villas that don’t have a pool, which allow me to avoid paying extra money for a tiny pool that I won't use anyway. Note that the hideaway pool villa that I stayed in was a complimentary upgrade. I feel sorry for the resort that a large and not so beautiful residential complex has been built to the south on the east side of the resort and somewhat ruins the sense of seclusion. A few things to note: the door to the villa won’t stay closed if it’s not locked, lighting control panel was not near the bed but hidden in the wall, the TV was rather outdated and there was some unpleasant smell at the south edge of the main pool. Overall, I find Six Senses Samui absolutely worth visiting. I also would like the thank the resort for offering affordable deals from time to time. I will be looking for those deals and visit again if possible. Read less
