We had a wonderful week away from Bangkok. Swam lengths in the pool everyday and even in the sea on one occasion. This is a beautiful resort with breath taking views. The Samui Yachting regatta (an annual event) took place before our eyes every day. Perfect weather with the only rain happening deep in the night. We are looking forward to our next visit already to your pocket of paradise. Thank you for your warm hospitality.

What a wonderful villa. When you book something over the internet you never really know what you’ll end up with, but this was definitely more than expected. Great rooms, comfy beds and wonderful views, friendly staff and management. Perfect location between the noisy areas but close enough for a night out. And don’t be afraid of the hill, going down is OK, coming up is a killer on the legs, but you have to do it at least once, it does get easier.

What a fantastic find. After spending hours looking at hotels and villas to stay in, my friends and I finally decided on Samui Mountain Villas. Definately not disappointed with the choice. When booking online you never know what you ll get, but these Villa s were everything as described and more. Don t let the fact that it s on a hill put you off. the view from up high is amazing, the sea breezes cool, the location is perfect, just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Chaweng and Lamai, but close enough to get what you need. The staff and management are friendly and very helpfull, couldn t ask for any more than that. And if you do stay there, don t let the extremely steep hill put you off walking - it s a tough walk up, but you just have to do it at least once (does wonders for the calf muscles). We would defiantely go back.

Second time to SMV (first in 2007). Wonderful place, with fabulous view on the sea from your terrace (we are in Palm Villa n°6) and from the pool of course (see the picture)! The team of SMV is friendship and very welcoming : more than an hotel, you feel like at friend s home. The spacious villa is full equipped and very comfortable. We spend 14 days and all was perfect (we will never forget breakfast on the terrace in every morning). As we notice on this forum last year, SMV is not for the people who needs activities or noise (prefer for it the hotels directly on Chaweng beach). But if you like peaceful and romantisme , it is for you! And rent a car (ask by e mail : it will arranged for you). We are impatient to return there in 2009!

We stayed here for a week at the end of our extended traveling honeymoon, and it was a perfect place to relax. The staff were so helpful and willing to take us places. They even gave us the use of their mobile phone to call if we didn t feel like climbing up the hill. The views are amazing and the facilities perfect with private deck overlooking the bay, king bed, cable tv with heaps of dvds, and a small kitchen which means you don t have to leave the resort if you wish. It really was an amazing place and the perfect escape.

What a view, what a place, what a steep hill! Samui has changed so much since we were here in 1999 to the point we were slightly disappointed, however Samui Mountain Village restored our faith in peace and tranquility. We were made to feel extremely welcome and nothing was to much trouble the management or happy smiling staff. Keep the place as it is. Thanks for making our stay special.

Stayed in Villa No. 4, beautiful wooden interiors, which we hope are not changed to the more modern/stark décor. The open deck is very private, offers spectacular views and is fairy like during the full moon periods. Very helpful personnel managing the resort.

After traveling around Australia and New Zealand for three months, Samui Mountain Village will be remembered as our “holiday time”! We had planned on staying for 10 days, but actually we stayed 17 (visiting Koh Phangan and Koh Tao in between) This says it all really, we loved it so much we just had to come back! Thank you to all the management and staff, we were made to feel very welcome. We would recommend Samui Seafood in Chaweng and Charming Restaurant. Also, Thai Lady Boxing in Lamai is definitely worth a visit! I’m sure we’ll be back again soon.

We met very nice people and had a really good time. Big thank you to the management and staff who took good care of us. We hope that there will be no big changes in Samui Mountain Village because we love this place just like it is. Thanks a lot, we’ll come back soon.

What a magical place to get away and relax! Melissa and I were that impressed by our first visit to Samui Mountain Village in May07 that we snuck another visit back to SMV in December. We stayed in Villa 6 and we love the personal touch that the all the villas offer. They’re very comfortable, self-contained and just a short car/bike trip to some of the islands best places to eat. SMV offers great privacy, priceless views (especially from the pool and Villa balconies) and also has a management and support team that are friendly and there to look after you, right from the moment you land at Samui International. They’re very knowledgeable on things local to the island. Just ask…. Everyone looks for something unique they enjoy or seek when on holidays. For Mel and I, it’s a place to relax, but also knowing that adventure and nightlife is just around the corner. If this is your choice of holiday also, then SMV is a great place to stay. We’ll definitely be back in 08 for our honeymoon. What can we say…it only took us 7 months to come back cause we just can’t get enough of it here. Thank you all once again for everything you have helped us out with. We love everything about it, our villa, views, management and staff. Can’t wait to come back…I’ll be counting down the days. See you on our honeymoon.

These two weeks at our villa have held moments of the most surpassing beauty. Gjeme proposed here on Koh Samui- on the darkened beach, the nearly full moon bathing the ring and the moment in pale, unearthly light. With a night like this, how could our memories of Samui Mountain Village be less than spectacular? It was not only this moment, but
countless others that have made our time here unforgettable. Jut a few…being picked up at the Samui Airport with a beer, water and cold towels (after a 32 hour journey, this is a lifesaver!)…The villa – our window displaying palm tree covered mountains, shimmering in the afternoon sun, the other offering a panorama of sun-splashed ocean, horizon melting into water as dusk falls…Butterfly garden, the peace and frantic fluttering of flowers in-flight, an undiscovered wonder of the island..Tamarind Springs, herbal steam in a pre-historic boulder, Thai massage in the sala, pure isolation, pure relaxation – this is Thailand. Simba accompanying us on a hike in the jungle. Thai boxing – the thrill, the strangeness of it! Cacophony of the crowd pole dancers, bald headed footballers, Thai fashionistas , tourists and athletes, trainers and barflys – it was a night to remember. Clang-wang, of the music dividing the fights and rounds, the thrill of women, sweat pouring, fists flying – fighting like men, this was Thailand! One thing to note for the guestbook – memories made possible by the support, insight and kindness of Bill. He went above and beyond our expectations from beginning to the end of our stay. From assisting with a jeep rental to recommending restaurants, hats off for being an excellent host, but hopefully a great friend for the future. Our best wishes to all incoming guests, all the staff made our time here so magnificent. An extra thank to the ladies for making our Loy Krathong flowers for us, it was the most beautiful night of all and we will never forget it.

Samui Mountain Village…wow…one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed! Fantastic views, friendly and very helpful staff and nothing is better than not having to share a pool! So quiet, relaxing and tranquil yet jump on your scooter (very fun) and so close to Chaweng and Lamai. Loved our stay here; hope we get to come stay again soon and very recommended!

From Nov. 15 2006 until end of March 2007 we spend 4 ½ months here at Samui Mountain Village. It is the best place for staying ‘long time’ between Chaweng and Lamai Beach. It is offering more comfort than some so called 4 and 5 stars hotels down at the beaches. The owners, all the staff, will take care of you. Any problems will be handled immediately and solved as good as they can do. Due to the height of the property (120 Meters above sea level), you always have a good climate, round about 4 degrees less than down at the Beach. It is really comfortable. And very important, come as a stranger and leave as a friend.
