King's Garden Resort
Compare prices
King's Garden Resort sits directly on the beach along Chaweng Beach Road in Koh Samui, offering guests a quieter, garden-focused alternative to the island's more commercial resort options. The property consists of detached bungalows set among lush tropical gardens, with direct beach access that guests consistently highlight as one of its strongest features. A beach bar and on-site massage services add to the laid-back coastal experience without straying far from the sand.
Visitors can expect comfortable, well-maintained bungalows that vary in size depending on the category booked, with bright and practical furnishings throughout. The breakfast buffet draws repeated praise from guests, and the surrounding gardens create a calm atmosphere that sets the resort apart from the busier stretches of Chaweng. Staff are noted as friendly and accommodating, with at least one account crediting the team with rescuing a last-minute holiday booking entirely.

Thank you for saving our vacation!!! After we made a very poor research and choice with our initial holiday booked, we were super lucky to get a last minute cancellation availability here! Beautiful property with amazing staff and great breakfast. Very cosy family atmosphere with a lot of repeat and long stay clients. A well run - animal friendly- resort with the owner staying on property to ensure smooth operations. If you don't need a pool for your vacation, this is the best choice in Chaweng!!!
I highly recommend this resort. The bungalows are lovely, breakfast amazing. Has one of the best beach access here in Samui. Beach bar and massages right on the beach. If we ever return to Ko Samui, we would definetely choose the King’s garden resort ! Thank you we had our best time here on the island 🌴.
The detached bungalows are built of solid concrete and are in good condition. Depending on the category, the rooms are adequately sized to very spacious. The furnishings are bright, practical, and functional. The mattresses provide good sleeping comfort. If you have a bungalow near the road, your sleep may be disturbed by traffic noise and music from the bars. The reception staff are friendly and helpful. The gardeners maintain the lush tropical garden almost silently. The experience in the restaurant is very disappointing. The staff, with the exception of the diligent senior waiter, are unfriendly, do not greet guests, and appear indifferent, almost dismissive. This makes breakfast unpleasant every morning. You feel unwelcome during what should be an enjoyable part of your stay. The location is great.
