Celes Samui Hotel in Bophut

Celes Samui is a great hotel in a lovely, quiet, and relaxing spot — just a 10-minute walk from Fisherman’s Village. The rooms were nice, clean, and comfortable, and the location is fantastic. The restaurant food was delicious and breakfasts were very good.

The beds are quite firm, which may not suit everyone, though the bedding itself was very good.

The staff experience was mixed. Some were absolutely wonderful — especially the girl with the short dark hair at reception, who was friendly and helpful every day, along with the restaurant staff and the guys on the front gate. However, others weren’t as friendly, and at times even came across as aggressive. Check-in and check-out weren’t overly welcoming, and one housekeeper was very abrupt when I asked for extra towels and refused to leave until I gave her two towels which I didn’t actually have!

The beach is beautiful to look at, but after about a metre in, the bottom is slimy, which made swimming less enjoyable. Because of this, we left for a few days to enjoy Lamai, which has a much more breathtaking beach. It’s a short cab ride away.

All in all, I would still recommend Celes Samui — it’s a beautiful and peaceful place to stay with clean rooms and excellent food. But I didn’t find the staff friendliness as consistent as other reviewers have described, which was a bit disappointing.

Perfect location and nice pools. The breakfast buffet is unbeatable

Excellent place all over. Pools were very clean, great housekeeping, friendly. Honestly I'll be going back. Great access to the beach and the food on site was delicious albeit not the cheapest. Not far from fisherman's market, there's some convenience stores very close. A gym onsite which offers fresh towels and good equipment. fantastic overall. 10/10

Celes Samui is absolute perfection! The location is idyllic, with a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. The pristine beach is immaculately clean, and access is a breeze. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly neat. The service is top-notch - impeccable attention to detail and a team that's always eager to please. We had an unforgettable stay and can't wait to return!

Good service and breakfast is amazing.

good quality room for the price and location

Celes Samui is close to Fisherman’s village in Bophut. The property in itself is really big and well maintained. Friendly staff and a great view of the sea from their restaurant. However there are not a lot of good food options nearby and we really struggled to get “tuktuk” for commuting around from that location. It felt kind of isolated.
However, for a peaceful stay it’s the perfect option.

I recently stayed at Celes Samui and had a truly lovely experience. As a solo traveler, I found it to be the perfect spot for a peaceful and relaxing getaway. The hotel is situated in a quieter part of the island, but it’s just a 15-20 minute walk from Fisherman’s Village, with a convenient shuttle service provided twice a day for guests.

The hotel itself is beautifully equipped, featuring three pools, a spa, gym, and on-site restaurants, along with direct access to a tranquil beach. My room was spotless, and the facilities were well-maintained. The staff were incredibly personable and professional, always accommodating my requests with ease.

If you’re looking for somewhere quiet to unwind, I highly recommend Celes Samui. It’s also practical, with a 7/11 nearby for essentials, and Chaweng’s lively nightlife is just a 15-minute drive away. I would definitely stay here again!
