The Briza Beach Resort, Samui - SHA Plus

Great room with private pool and hotel had brilliant location on beach, lovely part of the island

We stayed st Briza for two weeks in Sep 24 in a Deluxe room with a Plunge Pool. The rooms were spacious and very clean and the bed was so comfortable. The only addition I would request is a hand towel by the sink. Our fridge also leaked a bit of water but while annoying didn’t bother us. The gym is small but I used it every other day and it was fine. We also didn’t come to use a gym, we came to swim, hike, explore, dive and snorkel. We also used the pool a few times and the swim up bar as the cocktails are good and the prices are excellent. Ken and his staff are fantastic and the breakfasts were excellent, I have read a few other reviews that said their could have been a larger range of cereals and fruit and add smoothies, but for the brice of this hotel the breakfast is excellent value, with an egg cooking station, fresh pancakes and waffles, danishes as well as more authentic Thai options. We couldn’t fault the staff and compared to US, UK and Australia these countries honestly could learn a little more about hospitality from the Thai service industry. It is about 800m from Chaweng which allowed it to be a little quieter and you can choose to walk on the road or on the beach. There is a 7/11 two minutes away for any convenience needs. Rather than haggling for a scooter we opted to hire through the hotel and we had none of the other issues that many others faced with using rentals in Chaweng. The hotel is about 15 mins ride from Fishermans Village/ Bophut and 20 minutes to Silver Beach and 25 mins to Lamai. Our flight was at 6pm and Ken organized for us to remain in the room till we wanted with no extra charge (we stayed till after 4pm and yes we left a tip) and he also organized a taxi to pick us up and take us to the airport. Overall we cannot fault this hotel. To note it’s a little older but very well maintained and also built on the side of the hill which suited us but if you have mobility issues you may wish to add this as a consideration.

Beautiful resort - really great for a family.Super clean - the beds are a little firm but that’s to be expected and we had no issues with it. Great location - it’s at the quieter end but is a 2 minute taxi to busy end of Chaweng beach and Central Saumi. Pool was good for kids as it not too deep and our duplex was right next to it so that was great Amazing staff - we especially loved joining in on the Songkran festivities out the front of the resort Breakfast and lunch were both good There is 7/11 , Tops Daily and an excellent coffee shop within walking distance as well as the massage place directly across the road was lovely and my kids loved it !

Nice views, wonderful facilities and beautiful rooms. The staff are super friendly and professional at their duties.

The location of the place was good the plunge pool room was cool to have pool on balcony, room service was decent and not expensive.
