We stayed at Crystal Bay Yacht Club twice during our month trip as we loved the location right on the beautiful crystal beach 🏝️ First time we had a standard bungalow near the pool and the second time we stayed in a hillside bungalow- both were comfortable and modern with a large tv and good standard bathroom. The resort restaurant is right on the beach and offers a large menu with vegan and gluten free options and the staff were helpful altering meals for me! Pretty tasty food and was a great option for chilled dinner at the room when we had a chilled night 👌 There are 5 cabanes for customer use along the beach front which were a great addition and we used a lot! Would recommend visiting the Lamai night market ( we went Fridays but I think it’s on most nights) which has amazing food stalls (including a vegan Thai street food stand!), shops and live music. Would stay again! Thank you 🙏

Location of the beachfront villa to the beach. The size of the villa was great, the included breakfast options were good.

Beach very Crowded during the day and beach goers helping themselves to utilising the washing facilities at our villa to rinse sand from themselves and belongings. Lack of self awareness of these beach goers also when changing into and out of swimwear right in front of our villa, we saw far more than what was necessary too often.

Lovely resort on a small beach sure by huge boulders. It was lovely first thing in the morning and last thing in the evening when the day trippers went home. The fire show was pretty cool.

The beach had a lot of day trippers and was very crowded for the size of the beach. We had a beachfront cabin and we hated that beach goers and their families came on to our terrace to change and wash their children/ feet/masks. It felt quite invasive- maybe a small barrier might be nice.

The location and resort is amazing. The beachfront location is beautiful. Rooms are a bit dated, however our villa was huge and great value for money for my 2 teenage daughters and myself for the 5 nights we stayed. The resort is quiet and the pool area and restaurant are very relaxing. The resort is set back from the main road, so noise is not an issue, however very easy to catch transport at the end of the driveway to take you out for the day. Staff were very accommodating and friendly.

The shower heads in our room were not positioned correctly, so you had to hold the shower head to wash yourself correctly. No air-conditioning in front room of villa, so would get very warm in that room when you first walk in. Air conditioners in bedroom worked well.

The location is great! The beach is a little crowded but it is one of the most beautiful beaches on Koh Samui. The pool is insane with a view of the beach and the jungle. The food at the pool is also good but quite expensive. 2 times a week there is a fire show which is nice. I recommend renting a scooter. It is very easy to go around the island with a scooter and it takes 15 minutes to go to Koh Samui mall and 5 minutes to Lamai beach and Chaweng beach. For restaurants i recommend going to Silver Spoon for a cheap pasta and Big Bear Steak for a very cheap thai meal (only 100-200 baht per person for a lot of food). Nahm restaurant is a bit more expensive but very good!

It is a busy place so if you don’t like that then i wouldn’t recommend this place, but it also depends on the season you go. We visited in april. It took us some time to figure out the AC but it did work very well when we left it on the highest fan. There were some bugs in the bathroom but we put a cup over the draining and never saw any again. You are in nature so it is common to see bugs.

Loved the gardens with cats, fish and resident monitor lizard, the quiet atmosphere, the big pool, sea/beach on our doorstep, fire show, and our big room which was nice and clean. There's not a lot to do in the immediate vicinity but some of the local restaurants on the main road are nice (and cheap! - like Silver Spoon - fantastic)... though food at the resort was okay. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

Some nights there were loud neighbours drinking, singing and laughing until 1am (even after I'd politely asked them to stop around midnight). Perhaps the property's security could check on things like this? The beach wasn't always clean... we had strong winds so a lot of rubbish and weed coming onto shore (hotel occasionally cleaned it up). Breakfasts (a la carte) were good but not much variety.

The hotel is on the best beach in Samui, we've been to this hotel before and enjoyed our stay. Staff is helpful and friendly. Rooms are a good size, adequately furnished, although it is difficult to get 2 single beds. There is a pool and a sandy beach, although my advice is to get rubber shoes to go into water, there are stones in the sea. Massage parlour in the open air gives good massage, not too expensive.

The food at the moment is being improved, they have a new chef. Umbrellas are needed around all beds, as some of them are under trees, others are in a blazing sun.

Lovely and quiet. Great staff. The atmosphere of a smaller resort in a small cove with mainly resort guests on the beach or visitors from neighboring resorts. Children had plenty of space to play away from adults without children. Good cocktails. Absolute value for money for the price. I would stay again in a beach villa. We stayed in the very top villa in the hill. Great view but the 55 steps were a killer in the day time!

We were in the top villa on the hill. I booked knowing lots of steps. The quality of the steps however were a bit precarious as although cement and ridges were quite slippery after rain. Tried several types of shoes and only rock/water shoes did the trick. We also had issues with hot water in our shower but was fine in the basin. Not that you needed hot showers so it didn’t hinder our stay. We just assumed gravity and bring the end of the line. Maybe turning the bed around to face out to the view and so the air con doesn’t blow across the head of the bed would also be helpful.

The beach is my favourite in koh Samui. Like a postcard view everytime we stepped outside. We had the private pool villa. Definitely the nicest one out of the lot. Massage tables below us were enjoyed by us every day. Great food and drinks. The thai breakfast option with the rice soup... thats a winner. After a week the staff saw us coming down and had the extra hot cappuccinos ready for us as soon as we sat down..nice !!! And if you want a quick snack after a swim..I recommend the fried spring rolls and raw prawns off of the entre menu.

Was a little dated. Not much to offer. Would have been nice if it had a coffee machine and a stocked bar fridge especially if flying in late. Alternative was stumbling to the local 7 11 at 11pm to find something to eat. The maids were lazy. Never replenished the tea bags. Only managed to change the sheets once. Yeah i know its a bit of a whinge but even a 2 star accomodation in Vietnam has a nespresso machine with pods, fresh toiletries supplied daily, a full bar fridge and the room made up while we were having breakfast.. for a 10th of the price... Hmmm. And The toilet kept getting blocked. Oh well.. Still wont stop me from coming back to the Pool Villa.

Position wonderful

Swimming pool could be cleaner
