Nora Beach Resort and Spa - Ko Samui

We had a awesome experience at Nora Beach Resort. They treated us very well and I would love to go back to when I'm on my next trip to Koh Samui. To top the service they offered we also got a free upgrade which was sort of icing on the cake :)

we stayed here from 31st dec 2011 to the 5th jan 2012 the resort its self is beautiful and the grounds are so well kept...we had room 8136 which had a private balcony and sea views...if u have a villa...u dont actually get the view....the pool is huge and the spa treatments were lovely..cheweng is so busy in high season that this was great as its 2/3 […] minutes up the road... the beach is litrally feet away from the pool... the only thing that we didnt like about this resort was that the buffet breakfast...although there is a huge choice...the hot food was actually cold. other than that it was a great place to stay and we will be coming back....make sure you get the hotel right though because there are 5 noras in samui..dont go for nori buri because its beside a dirty lake...

Our stay of 3days was very good and comfortable. Hotel team was very very good and helpful in every need. Prompt service and very friendly. Even food at restaurant and breakfast was lovely.

We just returned from a two week visit to Asia, and we stayed in 3 different resorts during our time in Thailand. The Nora Beach resort would have to rank quite high among them. The resort is just around the corner from the beautiful open-air Samui airport and they make it quite simple to get to and from the airport (about 5 minutes) and Chaweng (about […] 2 minutes by car) with their own shuttle service. Making it quick and easy to get in and out of the island and around town. Despite this, there is NO airport noise. We didn't see or hear a plane the entire time. Upon arrival, you receive a refreshing cold towel and delicious welcome drink while checking in. As you look around, you realize what a slice of paradise the resort is. While it's just down the street from Chaweng, it is well-designed, avoiding all road noise and feels very quiet and secluded. We booked an ocean villa and I think we really lucked out, getting the one with the best view. We were a little concerned while booking the villa with how close the villa was to the pool (their website provides a map of the property), but never once was there excessive noise from the pool or anywhere else. Also, some people commented that they weren't private enough... while they are along the walkway to the pool and restaurant, we didn't notice any noise issues or problems with people walking by. The path is there, and people do move around, but never once did we feel like it was an issue. We were VERY pleased. It seems pretty standard to close the pool quite early in the evening. All the resorts we visited did this. Nora closed at 7 pm. This certainly prevented noise issues, but even during hours when the pool was open and the bar was open, we never heard a peep in our villa. As several people commented, the beach and ocean isn't that glassy, crystal clear water that you see around the area, but for us, this was no problem. We had booked a few snorkeling tours and didn't spend much time in the ocean at the resort Skaityti daugiau

The ocean pool villa is definitely the pick of the rooms. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The villa layout was brilliant. Not perfect in any regard, but pretty good.

We have stayed in total in 4 hotels in Koh Samui this December. The Nora was by far the worst. Old, quite unclean, terrible furnituring, totally unconvenient location, simply the Charme of an old highway Motel.

all aspects of our stay were excellent nothing was too much trouble the breakfasts were amazing not smack in the centre of town but for 200 baht or using the free hotel bus service it was fantastic

Sometimes it is hard to explain why one hotel is better than another but Nora looks much better than most hotels in Chaweng area , maybe it is the nice people who works in the hotel and maybe it is the pool bar it is hard to tell. But staying at Nora Beach was fun it has a free relaxed atmosphere, the atmosphere that you want to have in Koh Samui. One […] thing that is disturbing is the old TVs they have in the rooms. I think it is time to move to LCD... Skaityti daugiau

The hotel is a real relaxing places to go the staff are more then help fall. We had some washing done and left some money in one of the pockets. On are return to the room we found are cloths all ironed and a envelope with the money in. Can't wait to go back, And the pool bar is great and so are the cocktails !!.

It was the second stay at this hotel and we would come back anytime! Most of all we liked: - style of the hotel: nature all around the apartments and bungalows, so it is secluded from outside views - familiarity and coziness compared to surrounding 5* hotels (referring to the architectural atmosphere) - the beach: very clean compared to adjacent parts - […] the location: far enough away from the buzzling center of chaweng beach and yet close enough if willing to go there We hope that they will continue to keep this place in shape as it really stands out.

We stayed in the ocean pool villa for our honeymoon and it was awesome. Great room, pool, and private beach. The room service was good food and value. The only negative was the smell. The bay had a strange odor that was bearable but a bit of a nuisance. Other than that, perfect location, 5 minute taxi to the airport and the main nightlife but far enough […] away to have a private beach and resort. Skaityti daugiau

Really nice Ocean pool villa, big and comfortable with great service. Included breakfast was very good with a chef for omelets and special requests. Perfect location to be in a private area but close to Chawang and the airport (5 min taxi to both). Our only negative was the bay had an unpleasant smell when close to the water and in town but it was bearable. […] I don't think it smells like that year-round. Skaityti daugiau

- Great beach - Good 4* standard - Reasonable (not typical hotel-like) prices at pool bar and restaurants

3歳の子供を連れて家族でバカンスに訪れました。 子供を連れで違和感なし 空港から近い（10分ぐらい）　 近くの町までの利便性あり 眺めのよいヴィラ　　 適度のホテルの広さ プールと海との近さ 割安感 という点ではこちらのホテルはまさに、理想どうりでした。子供を連れてバカンスに3度ほど南の島に訪れていますが、ここが今までで一番過ごしやすかったです。

Wir waren im November 2011 für 4 Tage im Nora Beach Resort & Spa. Dies war das dritte 4-Sterne-Hotel auf Koh Samui, das wir kennengelernt haben, und es war von allen dasjenige, das uns am wenigsten überzeugt hat. Das Hotel ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen und das Zimmer war ok, aber wirklich nichts Besonderes. Die Anlage ist ganz schön, vor allem […] auch der Pool. Das Restaurant liegt direkt am Meer; das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, aber das Abendessen war weniger gut. Vor allem war die Karte zuwenig abwechslungsreich. Dass wir einmal 15 Minuten warten mussten, um einen freien Platz beim Frühstück zu bekommen, fanden wir eines 4-Sterne-Hotels nicht würdig. Die 2er Band, die jeden Abend spielte, war höchstens mittelmässig und eher nervig. Leider konnten wir nie im Meer baden, da es an dieser Stelle immer sehr stürmisch war. Ausserhalb des Hotels gibt es ein paar wenige Shops und Restaurants, aber eigentlich ist man immer auf ein Transportmittel angewiesen. Es gibt einen Shuttle-Bus, der dreimal täglich gratis nach Chaweng fährt und abends stündlich für 50 Bhat pro Person. WLAN gibt es nur in der Hotellobby (gratis), vom WLAN im Zimmer (kostenpflichtig) wurde mir vom Personal abgeraten, da das Signal sehr schwach sei. Insgesamt fanden wir das Nora Beach ok, aber wirklich nicht überwältigend. Für diesen Preis gibt es bessere Hotels auf Koh Samui. Skaityti daugiau

Flott Hotell med god Spa og flott basseng. Fin og rolig beliggenhet og enkelt å komme seg inn til Chaweng.

This resort is perfect place to stay for vacation 1. little away from downtown, but approachable. 2. Kind and slient 3. In front of beach 4. Close to airport

Vi hadde booket 3 netter på Nora beach som starten på vår Thailand ferie. Vi var veldig godt fornøyd. Hyggelig pool område m utsikt over strand og sjø. Selvom stranden v hotellet ikke er super gjorde det fint lite. Hotellet hadde gratis hotell buss inn til Chaweng stranden(som forresten var nydelig å bade på) Deilig å ikke bo i selve Chaweng, aly for […] mye av alt, men alikevel enkelt og greit og ta en tur inn til "byen". Alt i alt et flott opphold,og vi valgte og avslutte vår 3 uker lange ferie m 2 netter på Nora Beach. Skaityti daugiau

Hotellet er i den dyre ende og man forventer derfor en vis standard. Beliggenheden er smuk og det er rart at det ligger i udkanten af Chaweng by hvor der er mere roligt. Stranden er fredelig og ikke så overrendt af sælgere. Vi synes dog ikke at standarden på Superior Room var god nok til prisen. Hotellets service var heller ikke overvældende god. Personalet […] er flinke men virker lidt dovne og uerfarne. Det er også et problem at der spilles høj dance music ved poolen hele dagen. Nogen gange spilles der samtidig musik fra restauranten og så kan det være lidt generende. Efter vores vurdering passer det ikke helt med det rolige og afslappende image som hotellet gerne vil give indtryk af. Vi var også lidt overraskede over at den bus service som hotellet tilbyder ind til byen om aftenen koster noget. Det bør være gratis på et hotel som dette. Alt i alt et ok ophold men nok lidt under det vi havde forventet til prisen. Skaityti daugiau
