Breakfast was fine,location was excellent as someone with mobility issues a lovely scenic walk around the lake to a wonderful shopping centre with some fantastic restaurants then a stroll back the other side of the lake, where you can sit and watch Young Thia family’s teach there little ones to roller blade or try join in with the aerobics by the main square,then walk thro the lively bars on the Main Street straight back to Nids

Nothing, great staff beautiful surroundings Nids has some amazing flowers growing all over and cooks the best Panang curry I’ve had on the island,and husband Allan knows the area very well as for someone who doesn’t really do google map thing ,,became very hand

I liked the area inside the complex. A bit scary walking to the hotel at night because it's a bit rural with a few dogs barking behind you but just walk on and ignore the dogs and no problem. Safe once you're in the actaual hotel area. Friendly animals like cats, dogs, ducks and chickens walking around. Quirky chickens in a tree, laying eggs in the tree. Nice pool with a lot of shade from the hot sun. Breakfast was suberb for only 150 baht. Friendly staff treat you like family We were on first name terms from day one

The road leading up to the hotel is very dark at night with a few dogs barking. Ignore dogs and keep walking , you'll be fine. Best to get a taxi back at night. The rooster could go on a bit in the morning but so can my wife...

We loved it here , we also got a free upgrade to the best room. Was unsure to stay here as read reviews about a rude owner however this was not the case. Was pleasant, polite and sorted anything we needed such as extra hangers in wardrobe. Yes it was a little noisy in the morning some days from the animals but who doesn’t love animals and when you hear the stories that the lady nid rescues these animals and cares for them, it’s so lovely they are given a home and care ! The noise is not bad, some reviews make it sound worse than it is. Wasn’t a far walk to the beach or 7/11 and was situated on a lovely lake . We enjoyed our stay here and found the room comfortable and staff lovely !

Pool had quite a few bugs in

Amazing accommodation in a great location. Both Alan and Nid were very helpful and always willing to give advice and top tips. The bungalows are cleaned daily with fresh linen and towels. Overall, we loved our stay, slept very well and would definitely return.

sometimes taxis and other transport my refuse to drive directly to property due to road conditions. owner advised there are some taxis that will. only a short walk from where you are dropped to properties so no issue.

The property was close to everything but tucked away in a private location. The room was extremely clean and cleaned everyday I was there.....always fresh towels and my bed was made, floor was cleaned daily too. Nid and Alan were incredibly friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make sure I had an enjoyable stay. Nid's cooked breakfast was delicious and I looked forward to it every morning.... I could book, any day tours, the boat to Koh Phangan and anything else I needed was taken care of by Nid and Alan. There is a laundry service too and my clothes came back perfect. I was able to hire a scooter as well, which was very convenient. I loved the pool and it was so nice to swim in during the evening too.... I highly recommend Nids Bungalows.

Great location & on site facilities like a pool, laundry services, and great value breakfast which we had a few times! Lovely staff & owners too. Great place to stay on Koh Samui & close to lots of bars, restaurants etc. also some dogs, cats, chickens & ducks which we loved!

Room was basic but we got a budget room so can’t complain for the price! A cockroach crawled up my leg once when I was in the shower too but there’s bugs everywhere in Thailand so can’t always prevent that either

We a had a lovely warm welcome from Alan and Nid - even the dogs were nice. The pool table was perfect for me and my mate and the rooms were cleaned and we were given fresh towels each day. The motorbike hire and laundry facilities on site were very useful too.

nothing

The host was amazing and he is super Caring. He makes you feel at home. He tries to meet your demands as much as he can and he is a jolly person to be around. Property is beautiful and the pool is amazing. It is one of the best properties at great price in koh samui.

There was water problem in our room and lizards

As we thoroughly vetted the property description and reviews, we were aware of some of the gripes that others had, namely the dirt road entry point and the animals on the property. Happy to report that both were not a very big deal. We enjoyed the animals and the dirt road could be easily traversed with a car/scooter. Furthermore, it was a comfortable 5 min walk (at most). We found Nid, Alan and their staff to be friendly, accommodating and helpful. We stayed in the three rooms near reception (not in the actual bungalows) and they were large, clean, comfortable and had reliable aircon, wifi and TV. We also enjoyed the breakfast special which we found to be good value for money (although my family has requested that I suggest adding bacon to it). As it is close to bars/clubs you could hear loud music at night, although it was muffled once in the room with the doors closed. I should mention we also stayed over new years and our sleep was only disturbed by fireworks at midnight on 1 January. The 'noise'of the animals did not bother us one bit. Special shout out to the staff for very gently removing a rain spider which had made its way into the room.

The pool was a bit dirty, though it seemed that a sincere attempt was made to remedy this when we spoke to Allan about it. Allan, clearly very knowledgeable on the subject, did explain the trouble & expenses involved in keeping a large pool perfectly clear in a tropical climate. That being said, we swam in the pool every day of our stay. The location of the entry point of the accommodation is a bit out of the way (off the beaten track) which could be a problem for some.

I’ve traveled arguably many cities and attractions in Thailand and this place is so far one of my best picks. Located near lovely Chaweng lake, this place is a bit far from hustle and bustle of party scenes, but it embraces local atmosphere, and main attractions like Chaweng beach, restaurants and shops are still easily accessible. All facilities work well, and beds are pretty comfy. Lots of cats and dogs are greeting you so if you’re an animal lover, that’s a great bonus. Swimming pool is also great to chill out. Each bungalow has an outdoor table so good to smoke or drink(lots of mosquitoes though). Hosts Alan and Nid are amazingly friendly and try to help you as much as they can if you have any trouble during your stay. Such nice people. I will definitely stay there again if I visit Samui one day.

Everything was tremendous but WIfi network was quite weak during my stay. And if you’re looking for some party stuff, this place is a bit far from bars and clubs.
