The swimming pool although not huge is adequate for the size of the resort and good place to relax as there are always free sundbeds available. The only downsides are that the beach is not the best here due to the close proximity of the wave breaker which makes the water a little stagnant at times plus the WiFi would only function properly near the pool or restaurant. However a good place to stay after some agitated night at this location.

The resort is constitued of 122 individual bungalows and villas many which have their own private pools. I will hightly recommend spending that little extra 10 – 15% to have a pool villa as being able to jump in your own pool at anytime is a definite benefit and worth a bit more. There is a fabulous Infinity pool situated by the beach for guests which is a lovely addition. The only bad point is that as the resort is spread out on the hill some of the villas require more walking to get to them, but at least it will keep you fit!

Guest Friendly policy reply by the Anantara Lawana Resort & Spa: “If you are booking a room for 1 person in any of our room categories then we do not charge for the unregistered guest because our rates are based for 2 persons, but if you’re a party of 2 people then we would charge the unregistered guest an additional THB 1,750+++ tax and service charge per night as an extra person.

Location: The Samui Jasmine Resort is a well located small beachfront resort set in one of the best parts of Lamai for swimming and very close to the main strip with bars few minutes walk. The rooms that I would compare to four-star hotel are modern with clean fixtures and fittings and a Thai influence in styling. The beds was extremely comfortable, although the TV had very little English speaking channels, with a superb infinity swimming pool that overlooks the sea and set in superb green gardens this is a lovely complex.

Guest Friendly policy reply by the Samui Jasmine Resort: “Warmest greeting from Samui Jasmine Resort. We would like to inform you that for the Joiner We don’t charge for Joiner Fee, Just leave her ID card at the Reception desk. Best regards, Ms.Orasa Tae-Sakun Reservation Dept.”

The high spot of the Beach Republic has to be the outdoor bar and lounge area with its beautiful cabanas and beach chairs, along with a resident DJ mixing the best in chillout tunes. It is an excellent place to stay if you want to be at the party and you have the budget for it.

The Plunge Pool and Deluxe Jacuzzi rooms are in the main building, while the Pool Villas and Hydro Pool Suites are nestled in the beautifully manicured gardens. The rooms are spotlessly clean with everything you could need. The swimming pool is excellent, with a lovely bar area, and the food is of the highest quality. Super friendly staff and although not the newest resort in Lamai I still think this is one of the best four to five star offerings in this vacinity.
