The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Breakfast Experience

During my stay at Ark Bar Beach Resort, I was pleasantly surprised by the breakfast options. I could select five items from the menu, and everything was freshly cooked. I found this breakfast to be much better than the standard pre-cooked buffet at other resorts. It was a great cost saver for the resort as well.

Comfortable Sleep Guaranteed

The Premiere Deluxe room was an absolute dream! The bed was incredibly comfortable, and with the air conditioning keeping the humidity at bay, I had no mosquito bites to worry about. The pillows were slightly stiff initially, but upon request, they provided me with flatter ones. Overall, I rated the bedding a perfect 10/10.

Beach Party Atmosphere

I loved the vibrant atmosphere created by the beach parties at Ark Bar. The DJ played fantastic music from the afternoon until 2 a.m., and they often featured live performances which added to the excitement. This made my days relaxing and my nights thrilling, a perfect balance!

Great Pool Amenities

The resort boasts three fantastic swimming pools, all with towel service which made for a truly enjoyable experience. I spent hours lounging by the poolside sipping drinks from the pool bar. It was a perfect blend of relaxation and fun, making my stay even more nice.

The resort is a lively spot, perfectly located near the beach, and offers a vibrant party atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and clean, but the noise levels can be a major downside for anyone seeking peace and quiet. The staff are generally accommodating, though some interactions may not feel hospitable. Overall, it's a great value if you're looking for a festive experience, but families or those wanting a more relaxed stay might find it challenging.

This hotel offers a vibrant experience, perfect for those seeking action and fun right by the beach. The atmosphere is lively, especially with daily beach parties that keep the energy high. While the rooms are comfortable enough, they could use some updates. The staff is welcoming and efficient, and the dining options are surprisingly good value.

This hotel offers a lively atmosphere, right on the beach with great party vibes, making it an ideal spot for those looking to enjoy Koh Samui's nightlife. However, the rooms can suffer from noise disturbances, and the staff's response to issues needs improvement. While the breakfast is quite satisfactory, the attention to customer care leaves something to be desired.

7.0/10

This resort is all about the party vibe, with amazing pools and a vibrant atmosphere right on Chaweng Beach. While the staff were genuinely nice, the drinks were noticeably overpriced, and the noise levels made it tough to get a good night's sleep. The breakfast offered great value, but swimming directly at the beach was not possible due to the rocky conditions.

Rooms
