Great place, value and staff! ”
I have been in Thailand for 11 years and on Samui for nearly 2 years. Samui Mermaid is right on the beach and has a quaint swimming pool. Perfect place for relaxing. The beach is not the greatest (most beautiful) beach on Samui, but excellent value for the price. The on-site restaurants have a wide array of food and beverage choices including exceptional traditional Thai food. You can easily walk to other restaurants, 7/11 and other establishments near the hotel. There's plenty of 'night-life' also....not the same as Chaweng or Lamai...but you do not have to travel far to find it. If you have transportation (a motorcycle), you can get to any part of the island easily. If not, public transportation to other island locations is not difficult. Only 5 minutes to the airport. VERY fast and easy check-in. Every staff member was friendly. Samui is beautiful. Samui Mermaid is a wonderful resort, but the staff at the resort was the most impressive. Thanks for a terrific stay.

Value, great facilities, Staff A++”
Samui Mermaid has a choice of many rooms: from beach side to garden. Bth have swimming pools, always clean. Now the garden side is close to the airport, but this is because of the runway expansion. don't be put off, the rooms are good, but Samui Mermaid you need to have better fans & up date the air con in all rooms). I cant complain for the money I paid. The 24 hour restaurant & with room service has gone up i price, but again, they are not expensive for tourist prices. Will stay again (as previous many years). Great access to airport / Seatran boat to Koh Tao, Koh Phangan & Haad Rin queen boat to Koh Phangan. Lots of different tours ie. Angthong available too :)

Transit stay on Samui”
The Samui Mermaid is located near the beach and close to the airport. Perfect when arriving later on the island after travelling and waiting to get the boat to the neighbouring islands of Koh Tao or Koh Phangan. Best to book with the hotel if you want a transfer included otherwise a charge of 300 baht for a taxi service is added. Alternatively at the air port they have bus shuttles from 100 baht from Samui airport to the resort. The Staff are extremely helpful. The restaurant offers excellent breakfasts, lunch and dinners with fast effective wifi. Great place to stay.

Incredible.”
This hotel is beyond beautiful! Im travelling thailand with a friend for the second time and this is one of the nicest hotels i have stayed in by far! On arrival their was a member of staff waiting for us, we checked in and he carried our bags to our room! The room was clean and tidy, good facilities, room service if needed. One night there was a massive storm and as we returned to our room it had flooded. Within 10 minutes 2 members of staff helped us pack our belongings and we were upgraded to a bigger room. The staff were so friendly and welcoming! Spoke really good english and always had smiles on their faces. Cant thank the hotel staff enough especially our waiter "Love" who was amazing! Thanks again samui mermaid. We will be back!

Walking distance to two ferry piers”
Samui Mermaid hotel was perfect for anyone that needs a cheap place to stay. They have many rooms to choose from and since my bf and I were on a budget, we chose the garden suite with fan. For $17 CDN, you get what you paid for..a hot room with a fan, but once you dunk yourself in the pool, you can cool down from there. The temperature at night was perfect for us. The room was cold enough that we even covered ourselves with a blanket and I know I had restful night. The staff were super friendly and honest. A day after we checked out, we realized that we left some papers behind that included cash, cheques, and other personal items. We called the hotel asap and they had it with them and saved it til we got back from Koh Phangnan and very happy to say that all the cash and items were still intact. My boyfriend and I would stay here again. :D

1 night before/afrer the airport”
We went in a standard room on the little mermaid side. It does its job for a cheap night in a bungalow before heading to the airport in the early morning or arriving late and taking the boat the next day. Staff is excellent, you have access to a pool and you can find restaurants and bars on the road. The bungalow is off the road so you don’t hear the traffic but you shouldn’t be afraid of planes flying really low. It starts at 6am, a good alarm not to miss your own flight. We choosed this place to 2 times we travelled by Koh Samui.

A reliable favourite”
I always stay at Mermaid when I travel to Koh Samui from Koh Tao because it is right next to the Seatran Pier and my place of work. Its the one place I can depend on . The room may be a bit rundown , but it is very clean, and everything works. The staff are exceptionally helpful, even organising a taxi to fetch and carry me whilst I catch up on my household shopping before heading back to Koh Tao. The garden view rooms have a patch of garden out front, with a decent sized balcony with furniture. There is a nice clean pool right out front, and a 24 hour restuarant with TV and wifi. If you are stopping over between ferries and aeroplanes... this is a very good option!

Basic rooms for a good price. ”
We stayed in a standard fan room while at the Samui mermaid. The room was basic but was a great price and perfect for what we were doing in Samui. We only were really in the room to sleep so it wasn't an issue. The 24 hr restaurant has good food for a good price. The area around the hotel is quiet but great for us because we weren't interested in staying in a super busy area like Chewang. When we did travel around Samui, we just rented a motorbike from reception for 250 baht for the day and did what we wanted. Staff is all polite and the morning reception man was particularly helpful.

Great value hotel but watch out for the planes !!”
We stayed in the lower priced bungalows which were lovely and clean, serviced daily and set in lovely grounds. We couldn't understand why the price was so low - then a plane flew overhead and we ducked for cover !! These rooms are directly under the path of planes coming into land at Koh Samui airport and they are so low due to the airport being 5 minutes away. Thankfully, there are no night flights but they do start coming in about 6.00am so be prepared to be woken up early. Lovely hotel despite this and the staff are efficient and friendly.

Pre-Songkran 2010 ”
The hotel is a bit öff the crowded beaches of Chawaeng aand Lamai but very accessible through songteaows. Car rental is cheap in Samui and we took this option. The location is perfect when you want to find a quiet place to rest. The beach front view is great and quite near the port to Koh Pangan and Ang Thong. Airplanes are somewhat noisy but we expected that. In reality, you hear planes come and go if you're staying in Bhoput or even in Chaweang Beach. Except that they are somewhat more pronounced because of the quietness of Bhoput. The day staff is really good. My fiancee and I spent 4 nights in this resort... and it provided the best value for the plans we had for Samui. I would generally recommend this for travellers especially those who will spend more time exploring Samui and the adjacent islands.

Quick, value and easy ”
I often stay for one night at the Mermaid and I love it each time. The hotel arranges free airport pick-up and the staff are accommodating, funny and very helpful. It's only a short walk (they'll drive you for 50b/pax in a golf cart if you're so inclined) to the Bangrak Pier to catch the Seatran to Phangan and Tao, which I find extremely convenient. The rooms are clean and comfortable and depending on where you are, wifi extends into the rooms. Mermaid is a quieter (and cheaper) alternative to Chaweng if you need to stay by the airport.

Nice quiet resort and very cheap”
good things : your own terrace, quiet, got place for your motobike just near your room, fan, nice tv, very private so if you want bring some friends there no problem. really like the place. i recommend it for everyone and very cheap too. hot shower. hotel is near everythings (motobike rent, 7/11, restaurant, bar.) bad things : the shower is salted water and smell kinda strange. so bring a good soap. really like this place, if i return to koh samui i prolly gonna stay there again.

Compact Room”
The resort is separated into 2 lots. Bo phut beach runs on one side which is suitable for those who like calm quiet time. Our rooms were on the other side of the street where there's a bigger pool. The rooms have compact divisions for a table, dresser and a small fridge. It's pretty basic which is all you need for a short stay. The staff are very helpful too!

Perfect stop for Airport link”
We choosed this hotel for its location near the airport (10 minutes by car), the free transfer to it (24h working!!) and the price. And we found a nice bungalow style hotel with 2 swimmingpools (the one in the garden seemed quite dirty wth greeny water, the beachfront one was great!). Room was very good, simple but practical with OK bathroon, TV and free WiFi. It has also room-transfer by golf cart after the check in, no more than 200m away, but that's cool! The staff was attentive and friendly and there's 24h restaurant with good Thai and international menu. About location, it's a perfect place if you need to take a flight early. For the rest, it's placed in the road, not not much to see or do but staying on the hotel facilities or beach, but there are plenty of restaurants, 7eleven, massage places... spread all along the road. We went, recommended by the hotel staff, to the Fisherman's Village (10-15 minutes by taxi or sorng taa ou and about 150THB one way), a kind of posh village to walk around, shoping and having a drink or dinner (probably a bit more expensive than average in Thailand). So, definitely that's a great value for money hotel for airport link and I think it would work well too as basement point for a some days stay in Samui.

Near to USM airport”
There is an eatery nearby that serves really nice and value for money thai food, but apply loads of insect repellent. It is really noisy when the plane flies by but it's not throughout the entire night, so thank goodness. Can be quite noisy and disturbing when your neighbours return late at night as the hut is not fully enclosed, for ventilation, in the fan room. You can hear people talking and laughing outside the hut. Walk across the road to the aircon rooms side to access the beach. A 8 to 10 mins walk to Bangrak Pier. Good place for a layover at Koh Samui before heading to the islands nearby.

Good hotel with very friendly and helpful staff.”
I always choose to stay at the Mermaid when in Koh Samui. The proximity with the Airport and the boat companies that run fast transfers in between the islands of the east coast is very convenient. The rooms are fairly clean, sometime a bit noisy due to the planes flying past but it never bothers me too much. The restaurant is open till late and the food is very tasty. I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Samui for a night or two either on the way to the airport or on the way to Koh Phangan or Koh Tao.

Nice clean large rooms & good friendly service”
Stayed overnight on transfer from Koh Phangan. Hotel & gardens we really nice & well maintained. Pool & Bar area was nice, the 24 hour restaurant served great food. Could hear the planes every half hour or so but only during the day, they don't fly in & out at night time so there was no problem with the noise at all as we were out of the hotel for the day. Cheap prices & nice neat tidy rooms. Would recommend & go back there again.

Ideal for what we needed.”
Didn't expect much, the hotel was so reasonable and included a free shuttle from the airport. We were coming in from our Visa run and headed back over to Koh Phangan. We were already paying for a room there so took this one because of the price, reviews and free airport shuttle. We weren't disappointed. We had a small bungalow by the pool and across from the reception on the beach. The bed was comfy, we had good wifi, a hot shower and fridge. The room was comfy and clean and they also gave us two free bottles of water. We had a fan room which we prefer. It was a bit warm but not too bad with the fan. You are right by the airport so when the planes come in it can be a bit noisy. However they don't fly in too late, so this was also not a big deal for us. It was near the pier to Thong Sala so we were able to walk. We rented a motorbike and spent the day riding around the island. Chaweng and Bo Phut are very convenient.

Garden or Beach Setting”
Samui Mermaid (garden side) has cute bungalows, well maintained & a 24 hour restaurant near to the road. Garden side has a lovely swimming pool. It IS near to the airport, but I have been visiting for a number of years, for a short hop to the airport or a s a family break. Bangrak area is easy to travel from the Piers to the neighboring islands
