I really enjoyed my stay here. I stayed with my wife. It’s worth paying the extra money when booking to get the breakfast. If you know you’ll spend a good bit of money here, get one of the cards that they offer. We got the gold card and it was worth it. We really enjoyed the food at The View restaurant. We were able to meet the chef and he seemed like a good guy. Something that I didn’t enjoy about the restaurant is that for the staff says that it’s 750 per person but the front reception desk staff will say it’s 500. I’m not sure if the restaurant is owned by a different company than the resort. If not, it’s weird that it’s different prices. The views in the morning over looking the sea are nice. Since there were many hours of travel, we did appreciate that everything we needed was in a centralized location. We did one of the shorter tours. The massage at the end was intense. We decided the day before that we wanted to get married on the resort. The event manager, Air, was able to get us a ceremony pulled together and everything was beautiful. We got married on the beach and the staff was a part of the wedding. Also, the staff member, Fon, was a part of the wedding and took great care of us anytime we were in the restaurant. We appreciated how accommodating and welcoming everyone was, the food, and the views. We will definitely be back.

Rooms were spacious, clean and well maintained with good amenities provided. Staff were attentive and helpful, treats left in room each evening.
Breakfast was 10 out of 10 for variety and quality so good with the sea view location.
Recommend resort for a quiet relaxing g get away. Easy to taxi to any where on island.

Absolutely wonderful hotel, the staff go above and beyond, just loved everything from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. If I can think of just one improvement, it would be to have a bar open after dinner in the evening as after dinner everyone seems to just disappear either out to Fisherman’s village or to bed, so would be nice to have a bar just to sit and enjoy a cocktail

We had an amazing stay at the Melati! It’s slightly tucked away but close to night life and markets etc which was perfect for us. It’s situated on a lovely small bay with one other bar/restaurant so away from the crowds of some of the other beaches. Staff were amazing at the Melati, friendly and welcoming the whole time, breakfast was also too good!!!! We would definitely come again if we returned to Koh Samui.

This is a nice hotel. The main draw is the sizeable pool and the beach and the staff are very helpful. We didn’t have any problem with Mosquitos, at all. The comments in previous reviews about the breakfast…really? Coffee, fruit, juices, eggs however you like. It’s really good, even multiple
Gluten free options. The location is quiet but easy short drive to Fisherman’s Village, where we ate most nights. It is an older property but this doesn’t detract at all due to the polite helpful nature of staff. We would stay again if we were lucky enough to come to Koh Samui.

Excellent hotel in such a quiet and relaxing location. Rooms are wonderful, restaurants are great, inc a great buttet.

For the most part the service was lovely, but at times it seemed like such an effort to get them to help (for example, booking kids club for the following day I was told I would have to do it in person at 8am the next morning, rather than reception helping)- especially for the higher price tag you pay to stay here! However Atish and Sushi (trainees) were spectacular.

The downside of the privacy and remoteness is the lack of ANYTHiNG is surrounding area - 400baht min to go anywhere. So regular shuttle bus would be very welcomed. But, still worth it to be quite secluded from the hustle and bustle of Chaweng. But positively, Fishermen’s Market is only 15min ride and a really lovely, clean and safe, SE Asian street market

Great family resort too - plenty of families for the kids to get to know others, and the kids club for out 8/11yo’s was perfect.

Also one of the best equipped hotel gyms I’ve used!

Overall though, a fantastic stay and will definitely return.

We stayed in Presedential suite 702/704. The rooms were great, spacious and had everything we needed. The aircon in 704 didn't seem to be cooling very well. The staff did check quickly but said all was ok. This room was always warmer than the others. 702, the master suite, was right next to a service. This meant we heard vehicles, doors banging and staff conversations until as late as midnight/1am and again from 5/6am in the morning. The first night, there was a wedding. This was totally fine but all the usual restaurant furniture had been stored in front of our room. The noise of the staff putting the restaurant back together had us awake past 1am.

Lovely very quite resort

Lovely very quite resort, no loud music around pool and comfortable loungers. The website says they do things like aqua aerobics and beach volleyball but none of these were on offer when we went in January. This is away from other resorts and hotels so taxi required to get anywhere else but easy to obtain. There is also a more basic restaurant next door which has delicious food. the hotel restaurants are ok but you obviously pay more. The beach is small and in a bay so no long walks on beach possible. The area in front of hotel is well maintained but the beach outside villas next door has alot of rubbish washed up. This would be too quiet for families with anything other than very small children I would suggest, although they do have paddle boards and jetskis, weather permitting. Lovely staff who all very friendly. The gardens are amazing and the rooms feel private and are very spacious. We had a grand deluxe with balcony which was lovely with large frangipani trees outside where birds and butterflies visited. Would definitely recommend for those who want a totally relaxing holiday.

One who knows

We came to celebrate our honeymoon, the location of the hotel is in an area far from the center of Samui, but quiet and magical with a beach and an amazing view. The room was relatively large with very maximum equipment, in my opinion a good hotel and justifies the high score it received, there was one case of dirt on the bedding but the case was not substantial. Really enjoyed!! In conclusion: For those looking for a calm and peaceful place to spend their next vacation, the hotel definitely meets the needs

Property was beautiful. The grounds and rooms are pristine and calming. The amenities are very limited. A pool table that is oversized and a table tennis table that is falling apart. The main pool closes at 7pm which is an inconvenient when you want to relax after day excursions. The drinks are overpriced and very weak (I could not tell the difference between a virgin and non). As much as we loved the property and rooms, I would say the experience is lacking for the price point.

An amazing hotel! We stayed here for three nights and can honestly say it was paradise.
The hotel contacted us prior to staying to inform us of activites and transfers at the hotel. We were able to pre-arrange for the hotel to collect us from the pier, and also reserve spaces at the spa and for activities if we wanted too. We wanted to do a boat trip/snorkling which the hotel didn't directly offer but were able to arrange this with a third party on our behalf.
From arriving we had a lovely welcome and were given a lift to our room. Some of the reviews state it is a long walk around the hotel but it's very spacious and means that you have privacy which we appreciated. The rooms themselves were stunning. We had one of the most basic rooms that the hotel offers but it had everything and more than we needed. The bathroom was huge, with walk in shower and then a bath outside. The tv channels were good and lots of choice in the room bar/snacks. The rooms were very clean and cleaned in the morning but also the option for them to prepare your room for the night in the evening also.
Staff here were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided was fantastic and lots of choice of food to choose from in buffet form, aswell as items on a menu. We had dinner at the view restaurant, and the view over the sea was stunning. We enjoyed the food there also, thai food as well as burgers, pizza salad etc. Cost of the food was what you would expect for a 5 star hotel on the beach.

Pool is nice

We travelled to the resort as a family of 4. The pool is very nice and clean with lots of kids playing in it. There is also an adults only pool nested in the middle of the resort. The beach front is however very small due to the location on the island. Because the resort is stretched inland, rather than along the beach ask for a room close to the beach front if this is where you intend to spend most of your time.

Horrible hotel experience!! The front desk staff was the rudest I’ve ever dealt with. They added ridiculous extra charges to my final bill and ended up charging my card TRIPLE the amount. There are fruit flies and ants in all of the rooms, the restaurant does not serve fresh food, you can obviously tell it’s all frozen and reheated. This is NOT a five star hotel.

A gem of a resort on a secluded beach.

Our family of four was immediately upgraded to a pool Villa upon arrival. The grounds are tranquil, well space, so you have no feeling of being in a large resort. The staff is courteous and friendly to a fault, and the restaurants on property survey good, if someone expensive range of food that will fill every pallet. The beach is small, but there’s only two other properties facing the ocean. As a result, you have a very intimate feeling rather than a big resort vibe. The property is part of a chain of two on the island, and benefits from not having a “corporate feel” about it. For us, for a short sprint of a vacation away from the traffic at Bangkok, it was ideal.

Overall, it was a great holiday and a nice place to stay. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the facilities were of a good standard. Having the family pool, bar/restaurant, and beach in close proximity provided a fun, convenient, and tranquil vibe. The food, on the whole, was good and was offered at a reasonable cost. The villa we stayed in was quite spacious, however, it didn't contain a full-length mirror which slightly irritated my wife. This is a minor thing, I realise, so I only mentioned it because it would very easy to rectify.

MUST VISIT

Absolutely amazing. From the moment we got out of the shuttle bus and arrived in the reception area we could not have asked for anything better. All staff were awesome, very friendly, kind and bent over backwards for us. We arrived for our honeymoon and it didnt disappoint. Check in was painless and quick, with everthing explained to us. We were walked to our Villa where we were greeted by a bottle of bubbles on ice and rose petals in the shape of a heat on the bed. The room was huge, very clean with a garden pool and outdoor area for meals / relaxing. The main pool was an oasis, looking out across the ocean with a view of Koh Pha-ngan. The lads around the pool, Baw & Tak were two of the funniest & cheeky guys we met, they made our stay a memorable one. We booked in for the traditional Thai banquet which included Thai dancing and a Thai Boxing exhibition. Great night along with beautiful food. The hotel offers a half day tour that we took advantage of and our guide, Paech was extremely knowledgable and informative as he took us around to the the big Buddha, Fisherman Market and local temples. Breakfast had a great variety and the fire show in the evening was a must to see. The head Chef holds a cooking class which we went along to where we had the opportunity to cook four (4) dishes and be guided by the talented Chef Ken. I would highly recommend doing this to all guests for the culinery experience. The Melati is a must for all visitors travelling to Koh Samui, easily 10/10

Highly recommend

Beautiful hotel, great staff, just perfect.
The hotel is very isolated which Was ideal for a relaxing break and we loved everything about it. It was very cheap to hire a moped and get around Samui which suited us, we had the luxury of the hotel but could go out exploring.
Would definitely recommend and hope to go back soon.

Fantastic all in one hotel

Great place to stay and relax, prime position on the beach with very friendly staff. The rooms are really well maintained very clean with well operating fixtures. They provide activities throughout the day so if you wanted a little more to occupy yourself with you have the option. Breakfast is fantastic in the morning and if you get the opportunity the BBQ dinner night is an unbeatable experience. We had some other beach dinners on our stay at Koh Samui but nothing could compare.

Gorgeous place to stay to unwind and relax

This was our second visit to Melati beach. We recommend it to everybody as it is such a wonderful place to stay. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. The chef makes the best poached eggs we have ever had and remembered how we ate them after our first order. They were ready everyday as we arrived for breakfast! Amazing! The spa is gorgeous- very well trained staff and a perfect environment. Definitely looking to return again!

Great for families, just watch the weather

Great service, nice beautiful private beach.

Kids club wasn't great but does its job. Free kayak is great.

Location a bit secluded, could be good depending on what you prefer.

Perfect

Wonderful resort, set in a tropical botanical garden. Great food, happy hour drinks,very friendly helpful staff. The only problem, if you could call it that, is if you want to for a walk away from the resort, it's not really practical, you have to get a taxi just about anywhere that you'd like to go.They do offer a bus service to their sister resort at Chaweng, but really thats the last place on the island that you would want to go. A wonderful five star resort, that I'd highly recommend.

Stayed 8 days at Melati resort. The resort is peaceful and relaxing. Staff was good and helpful. Food at the resort was very average especially breakfast buffet was extremely disappointing. Very little choice. Overall rating 7/10

A Hidden Gem

We fell in love with this place and can’t wait to go back someday. The staff were incredibly attentive and welcoming. The pool and restaurant are located right beside a beautiful beach that faces the island of Koh Phangan—stunning sunset views! Our room was very luxurious. The resort is simply beautiful and a highlight of our vacation time in Thailand.

Wonderful Hotel, Breathtaking Room, 5 Star Service

WOW! This hotel is absolutely stunning...tropical thai feel, 5 star amenities and service, this hotel cannot be beat! I loved every minute of my stay, felt so relaxed, had so many activities to do and the food was top notch. The hotel even helped plan my transportation as well as touring the islands nearby. I definitely recommend any and all to stay at this hotel as it was one of the best experiences I have had in my life.

Disappointing: overcharged for excursions

Main attraction of the hotel is the beach which is beautiful. I booked an excursion through the hotel to the marine park for 4600 BHT for 2 people. On our boat there were 19 other couples that had booked the identical trip at different hotels for only 3000 BHT per couple. On returning I asked the hotel manager why they charged 50% more for exactly the same trip but he had no good answer and wouldn't refund the difference. It's disappointing the hotel was willing to irritate its guests by so obviously overcharging guests for excursions organised by 3rd parties and then when caught out refusing to make it right.

Beautiful hotel but mix up from Expedia

After arriving at this stunning hotel , we were informed that our room we booked 3 months earlier was not available. Because we booked though expieda they didn’t have our email address to inform us earlier. We were very disappointed , but were compensated with free dinner every night of our stay . And upgraded to a family pool villa on our last night which was AMAZING.. thank you Leo for your amazing service & we hope to come back soon.
