Reviews and Ratings
Samui Orchid Resort offers a pleasant experience on the beach, perfect for kiting enthusiasts, with clean bungalows featuring private pools. However, the resort is a bit dated, lacks on-site dining options, and the beach is shallow, making it less ideal for swimming. The proximity to Mahalo Kite School is a strong plus, but some maintenance issues could use attention.
I had a nice stay at Samui Orchid Resort, right on the beach, which is perfect for kiting. The room was clean and came with daily housekeeping, but the property is showing its age and the beach isn’t great for swimming. The lack of on-site dining was a bit of a hassle, but there’s a good spot just a short walk down the beach. Overall, it’s decent for kite surfers but could use some updates.
Samui Orchid Resort is a nice spot for kiting since it's right on the beach, and the staff is responsive to issues. The accommodations are comfortable, though the property feels a bit worn down and lacks on-site dining options. Additionally, the beach isn’t great for swimming, but it's fine for wading. While there's a convenience store nearby for food, having a restaurant on-site would really enhance the experience.
The Samui Orchid Resort is a nice place if you’re into kiting, as it's conveniently located near a kite school. The beach is shallow and not great for swimming, but it works for wading. The rooms are clean and spacious, though a bit outdated, and the availability of only one pool for guests is a downside. While there’s no on-site restaurant, I discovered a great one just a short walk down the beach. Overall, it's decent but has room for improvement.

The lack of on-site dining options can be a downside, but there's a decent restaurant just a short walk away. Overall, it's a decent place if you're looking for a kite-centric getaway, though you might not find luxury amenities here.
