    Nigel C, Hong Kong, 21-Jun-2025 - 27-Jun-2025
    What a beautiful place and the most special and delightful privilege to be invited here. Once-in-a-lifetime memories, with great friends—old and new. Hearing Peter sing was one of many highlights. Also, small people floating in pools—"I just walking around, looking at different things." Thank you to the magnificent Khun Aan and the wonderful team here—impeccable and such a pleasure! Capybara Capybara! What an amazingly beautiful place! I arrived here ready to rest and recover, and I leave feeling rejuvenated. Great to be able to connect with the family and enjoy time with friends. Thanks to all for the hospitality.
    Nuria M, Switzerland, 19-Apr-2025 - 26-Apr-2025

    Thank you, Joy and Tong, for the awesome service and hospitality! I truly appreciate you going the extra mile to send and pick me up from the nearest Muay Thai gym. I enjoyed every aspect of my stay here, especially the little details that made the room look and smell amazing every day! Can’t wait to be back next time!
    Andrew S, United Kingdom, 22-Dec-2024 - 02-Jan-2025
    Thank you for a truly amazing stay at Villa Waimarie. This has been our first visit to Koh Samui, and we have loved every second of our holiday. The food, the iced coffees, and the service have all been superb—we truly wanted for nothing. The tennis court was an added bonus, and all the rooms and bathrooms were perfect for our needs. It really is a beautiful villa, and everything was excellently managed. We’ve had a fabulous time. Thank you once again!
    Wookie C, Hong Kong, 13-Nov-2024 - 17-Nov-2024
    Thank you for a magical stay at Villa Waimarie. For some of us, it felt like returning to a home away from home, while for others, it was our first introduction to this magical paradise. It’s safe to say we’ll be back very soon. A heartfelt thanks to the Chef for preparing the most delicious food we’ve ever had — it was hard to stop eating at every meal! To all the staff at the villa, thank you for making our stay so comfortable, and special thanks to the most artistic housekeeping team. We loved returning to our rooms and being delighted by the beautiful surprises on our bed. We wish you all the best and look forward to returning in 2025!
    Hana P, Philippines, 06-Nov-2024 - 08-Nov-2024

    Tim M, Hong Kong, 24-Oct-2024 - 28-Oct-2024
    What a paradise this place is! Perfect for us getting away from the hustle and bustle of life in Hong Kong! Thank you to Khun Tong and his team for doing a great job entertaining our requests for food and drinks! We were lucky enough to be invited to our friend's 60th birthday, and it was the perfect place to celebrate his special occasion with good friends! What a lovely time we had here! Your villa is beautiful! Thank you very much to our hosts, Vangie and Tim, for including us in this special event.
    Kenji A, China, 05-Sep-2024 - 08-Sep-2024

    Tong-San is the greatest host. Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality. I totally enjoyed my stay; it was really, really relaxing and amazing! All the villa staff are lovely and so kind. I will always remember this stay and everybody's sweet smile. Thank you so much! Thank you so much for your world-class hospitality that made our stay relaxing and special. Your heartfelt service and attention to our curiosity and interest in your culture, including food, organic cosmetics, drinks, clothing, and so on, were deeply appreciated.

    Kevin H, United Kingdom, 29-Jul-2024 - 06-Aug-2024
    A big thank you to Tong, Nat the amazing chef, and the Villa Waimarie staff for making our family reunion so special. We are a family of nine, coming from the United States, the United Kingdom, and Malaysia, and this is the best venue for our annual family holiday. The villa is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of space to gather and play games. But the thing that made our stay perfect was the villa staff, led by villa manager Tong.
    Panit L, United States, 17-Jun-2024 - 24-Jun-2024
    This is our final full day at Villa Waimarie, capping off a fabulous week-long stay. It's not easy to find accommodations that can handle three families—my wife, Panit, and I; our two daughters, their husbands, and these grandchildren. The villas were simply perfect. The pool was an instant hit, and after a day of splashing and swimming, the young ones slept soundly. The welcoming shores of the gulf made for fine swimming, paddling, and shell collecting. Khun Tong was the most amazing host, providing early morning coffees and answering our questions (as well as requests). The staff was also superb, keeping the grounds pristine, servicing the rooms, and assisting with the meals. We could write volumes about the superb and delicious meals created by Chef Manus! We enjoyed our cooking class and the wide variety of meals, including special treats like Hat Yai fried chicken, Moo Ping, and a memorable dinner as we celebrated our 48th wedding anniversary!
    Simon John C, Hong Kong, 27-Apr-2024 - 04-May-2024
    Another fabulous week at Waimarie! Thank you to the entire staff for always being so helpful and kind. Particular thanks to Tong for accommodating all of our requests with a smile, whether for all the special vegetables, drunken noodles, arranging the massages, and transport... we felt so well taken care of! And of course, huge thanks to the chef for all the delicious food and "surprise" dinner—we are leaving incredibly well-fed and satisfied! Thank you again and can't wait to do it all over again next year.
    Natalie M, Australia, 17-Apr-2024 - 22-Apr-2024
    Tong and the entire Waimarie team are so lovely and thoughtful! We had a wonderful time this week and can't wait to make plans to go back soon.This has been one of our best and most relaxing vacations. From the food to the pool to the thoughtfulness in our room...every detail was taken care of. What a magical place!
    Friederika S, Germany, 04-Mar-2024 - 18-Mar-2024
    We had a wonderful time at Waimarie. The place is stunning, and the ultimate beachfront is amazing. However, the heart and soul of this place is Tong and his team. Tong is delivering 5 stars plus service in the private setting of your own villa. He goes above and beyond to create the perfect holidays for the entire family. This place is great with children, and the food is absolutely amazing. Thank you to the wonderful team for our amazing stay with you.
    Lily C, Canada, 27-Feb-2024 - 03-Mar-2024
    It was truly a wonderful stay from service to food to the complex and especially your happy faces. We all had a great time relaxing and enjoying the beautiful weather. (It made David and I, Rose Chan) wonder why we didn't return sooner (last time was 2016 May) like the rest of our group of seven. Thank you.
    John N, United Kingdom, 24-Dec-2023 - 06-Jan-2024
    We have had the most wonderful two weeks spent in utter bliss of wonderful hospitality. Chef cooking amazing food menus. Eleven very happy adults and five grandchildren—12, 6, 4, 2, and 5 months!

    To Joy, Tong and the entire staff at Waimarie. We had the most amazing time here. Everything from the moment we stepped feet in Waimarie has been out standing.

    The review is from a 7 years old kid: I have a amazing vacation here, we feed elephants (elephants smells not stinky), the restaurant owner has 5 dogs, they are fat and cute, I love them. Grandpa played the swing with me under the tree, I was flying and so happy. Dad and me swimming in the villa pool. After that we took a boat to go fishing, the captain caught lots of fishes, hope we can be good like him next time. We have a nice time here. I will study harder and get back to here again. Thanks all. LI ZI
