The Fair House Beach Resort & Hotel

This hotel complex seems old and a bit tired- but aren’t we all. My room wasn’t as clean as I’d like, with hairs from previous guests still being visible around the bath and on one of the towels. I had a very comfortable stay here nonetheless- the beds are big, the water is hot, and the setting is well thought out and beautiful. The staff at the front desk were lovely, very friendly and informative.

The resort was nice enough if you’re on a budget. The hotel itself is quite long vertically so our family villa was far from the beach and there was a bit of a trek down stairs to get down to the beach but they do have a little shuttle you can call if you don’t want to go down a bunch of stairs. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating to our requests. The breakfast buffet was ok. They had a great fire show Saturday night on the beach and we reserved a table for that at the hotel restaurant by the beach. The beach in front of the hotel was a bit coarse on the feet so best to wear water shoes. The sand was yellow hence why it’s called Yellow Beach. This is Chaweng Noi so a bit different than Chaweng. Just be aware but if you don’t care about the quality of the sand, I think anyone would be happy with this hotel.

Good location, very nice beach view , hotel staff nice and helpful 😃

We had a nice bungalow on the beach. Spent just over a week at Fair House and we had a great experience! One or two of the beachfront rooms are a little noisy and crowded due to proximity to big massage areas and/or pool, but luckily we ended up in one of the rooms just down the beach a few steps. The location of the resort is awesome. Chaweng Noi is the nicest beach we've been to on Samui during our couple trips to the island. It's not that active, but is very beautiful and peaceful, plus there are a couple of dining options. I would recommend the Sheraton's Blue Monkey beach bar/restaurant probably over Fair House restaurant, to be honest. The prices were certainly higher there, but the quality was substantially higher as well. With that being said, Fair House's service and breakfast were both plenty nice! The service staff were all pretty great, even if they had been there all day. In addition, if you want to get out of the resort area, there are a lot of options within a 20ish minute walk from the rooms, and even more options if you are okay walking a bit more, hopping on the resort shuttle, or calling a car (within 10 minutes drive or so). Overall, a lovely trip!

Our deluxe bungalow was about the size of a hotel room. I was expecting a bigger room. Breakfast was very good. We had a late check-in despite arriving early and the hotel refused our request for a late check-out.

Where can I start… the worst experience ever!!!! They gave me a three-bed family room even though I asked them to change rooms as it was just me, but “we are fully booked.” I am not sure if I paid for a cheap room on trip.com that they couldn’t offer a decent room; even if that meant paying extra, I would have done it. I’m on holiday and want and need comfort, but again, “we’re fully booked,” and people were still checking in after me. The bathroom was like a dungeon, with no ventilation whatsoever, and the room smelled like mold. The gym was old but functional-ish. At some point, they ran out of towels, and I called the reception to ask for clean towels as people were working out, but no ONE CAME. I booked five nights and never slept in that room, not even once. On the last day, I GOT FOOD POISONING from eating their buffet breakfast, and when I tried to nap in that ugly room, there was an awful smell like sewage, and I ended up THROWING UP!!!. Last but not least, I tried to shower once, and there were two blackouts. I was stuck in the dark in that bathroom dungeon, and that was it for me. I checked out one day before. I am not coming back, and I would not recommend it. Pros: beach access.
