Villa with amazing views
Left on Aug 6, 2019 for a stay in Aug 2019 Published in Trip Advisor
Beautiful house with amazing views. Very attentive staff and good comms from owner Comfy beds Well stocked kitchen Drive to property was very steep, my husband loved it! More toilets than you can use You can’t really walk to restaurants as the climb is so steep coming back but plenty just on the main road 5 mins away in a car.

The most amazing house, with everything the heart could ask for, found EVERYTHING in the house, fantastic pool area where all our time was spent, we were 10 people away and there was plenty of room. The staff that were associated were absolutely amazing and there was nothing they couldn't help with, cleaning, shopping, washing clothes and much more. Great views and not far to the beach and town. Can really be recommended.

Derrick’s place was amazing! From the incredible staff, to the amazing views it was so much better than we expected. Ohr helped us navigate through the storm & was always there when needed. We were so grateful for the endless hospitality. The house is stocked with menus and when needed they offer to pick it up for us and they got groceries for us when we were trapped in during storm Pabuk. If you’re in Koh Samui with a group, this is the place to stay!!

If I could give this villa 6 stars, I would - it was even better than the photos! Such an amazing place on paradise island. Wonderful restaurants close by. A bit of a trek to get to Chaweng due to the traffic, but the villa and its amenities more than makes up for the distance. Recommend this villa without hesitation !!

“ STUNNING! the unbeatable sunset view, the unique taste of house decoration, the home away from home style assistant servicers, the detail of the arrangement and consideration from the guest point of view, the quietness of villa, also incredible convenient to the Nathon pier by only 5 minutes drive. By just look at the pictures of the villa, we have already full of expectation, but upon our arrival, its way better beyond our imagination. Even it situated on top of a hill , even with bit steep, but a happy 10min S-shaped walk down to the main road was fun for every one of us . Amazingly every room was equipped with a private bathroom( both tub and shower),large and bright, also with ocean view! The pool is the highlight of the villa with beautiful view overlooking Choeng Mon bay ,which makes it great for those days we just want to hanging around at the villa and enjoyed our candle dinners, chanting under the sunset! Back home, kids already start missing the memorable nights by drinking fresh coconuts juice, watching the starry sky! The villa is perfect for groups of friends or family! as each one of us may find a private corner in the villa, enjoy no disturbing reading, game playing , napping, swimming, deep meditation! Derrick and his staff were so helpful and responsive to our needs and make our trip the best experience ever. The two assistants at the villa were amazing. They were professional and diligent, cleaned our rooms and every corner of the villa daily. Strongly recommended the Thai food they cooked, unbelievable original tasty! Much better than those dishes we tried at downtown! Overall, this villa is a great value! we would definitely stay here again and recommended to our friends whoever will enjoy their holidays in lovely Koh Samui! ”

“Five Stars Sunset Pavilions” 5 stars
Our second stay at Samui Sunset Pavilions, having been three years back, and the second time coming was just as good as the first. A very impressive villa with fabulous views, a great pool and plenty of space for the family to relax, looking as good today as it did on our first visit and at a very attractive price
We had new staff this time, they were very friendly and helpful, ensuring everywhere was spotless every day and with the minimum of fuss. The bathrooms, all en-suite, have spacious walk in showers and the villa boasts a total of 8 wc’s, just in case! Each bedroom is impressively large and all come with air conditioning and fans.
The cooking facilities are very flexible with gas and electric hobs, an oven/grill, toaster, microwave, rice cooker, mixer etc. and the kitchen is spacious, which is handy when everyone wants something different for a home meal.
Everything worked perfectly and the manager Aoi and the owner Derrick were invaluable with their friendly assistance, and if anything did go wrong –the DVD malfunctioned- they were on to it in a flash, once we let them know. This is a small tropical island and it being Samui we know that occasional power outages are going to happen, but it did not happen this time!
To conclude, a great holiday in a fabulous location and excellent value for money.
If anyone can stay here and complain, I really would have to question their motives.

“500 words (the limit for this review) are not nearly enough to adequately describe the majesty of Samui Sunset Pavilions. Everything is exactly as pictured in the description, except in real life it's much more luxurious and impressive. Derrick is a really fantastic host, easy going and easy to book with. He along with Aoi, Jaa, and the rest of the SSP staff made our 8 night stay nothing short of spectacular. They went out of their way at every turn to make sure everyone in my group of 10 was comfortable and happy. They are all interesting and caring people. I got to know Derrick over an enjoyable poolside beer. When I fell ill toward the end of the trip, Aoi insisted on taking me to the doctor herself. The views from SSP allow for some of the most unbelievable and ever changing sunsets I've ever experienced. Couple the view with the comfort of SSP, and you'll never want to leave. I'm currently in Vietnam traveling as I write this review looking back, and over the last couple weeks upon meeting a few different couples and geoups headed to Koh Samui, I've found myself compelled to tell them about Sunset Pavilions and how much they'll enjoy a stay there. I cannot more highly recommend Sunset Pavilions to anyone going to Koh Samui. If it's even a little bit in your budget, make it happen!”

“A real paradise” 5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 6, 2015
I booked this villa because my sister had been there with her friends 3 years ago and recommended it, but I never expected it to be THAT AMAZING ! it was beyond all expectations !
The view is out of this world (the villa really has the right name, as the sunsets from there are breathtaking ! ) !! We made sure to be back at the villa everyday at 18h00 exactly not to miss the sunset ! ...
The villa itself is beautiful, with amazing rooms, that are both great and charming, with windows all around them so you can wake up with the view. bathroom/showers are also really nice and so well decorated.
The pool and outside area are WOW, and theres beautiful flowers wherever you look or turn.
Finally, the staff is wonderful, friendly and discrete.
I recommend it to everyone: all ages, family, friends, couple, honeymooners…
You will LOVE IT .

Review #12040423 “best place to be on samui”
We spent almost 4 weeks in this beautiful house. Every day you get up you absolutely enoy being there. Not only the always changing view you have from the different rooms and the outside places also the interior inside even in the bathrooms... is on the top in style. The huge pool is a dream it really seems to be endless and its an indescribable happening during the sunset and every day different.
We also had a good time with our housekeepers and also the management and Derrick the owner were very, very friendly and helpful in everything we need them.
Many many thanks to all of them ! We can recommend this place for a 100%.
We will come back !

Sorry I haven't had any internet since leaving. I will write a review when I get home. I met some Aussies from Noosa not far from me at home when I went to Bo Phut markets. I showed them photos I had taken of Sunset Pavilions, they have taken my ph no and email address, they are keen to rent it when they go over next, they are going to contact me when I get home. I also showed a few people where I stayed at the Elephant & Rain forest Camps. They couldn't believe it, gave them your website address. There were people from all over the world, one was a travel agent from London, he was really impressed. Will keep on showing people and singing it's praises, hope you get some bookings out of it and hope I get to return one day. Once again thanks, the house was amazing and Jar and Bung ( the resident staff) were so lovely.
