We stayed with friends at Saboey for 11 nights mid January. First impressions were great, small personal boutique hotel, staff tripping over themselves to assist you. We had the two beachfront villas and were impressed with the privacy provided. Nice little bit of beach with a great day bed and own own sunbeds. One of my reasons for booking here... more

We stayed at the hotel over New Year on a 3 week tour of Thailand this was going to be our 'splash our hotel' but we where disappointed. We had organised a pick up from the hotel - it is literally 5 mins away in a car. We arrived around 9 am and after check in we had time to... more

English couple, living in Turkey. We stayed at Saboey over Christmas (from 18 Dec to 31 Dec 07). Initial impression - lovely location, nice gardens, small hotel with a friendly atmosphere, which is what we wanted. Sadly, the hotel had changed hands just after we booked (3 weeks earlier) and it showed from Day 1. The friendly Nicki (former owner)... more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, NOR YOUR TIME THERE 1. PLANES GOING BY WILL KEEP YOU AWAKE before booking, we have rang to make some enquiries about the proximity of the airport with this hotel.

My wife and I stayed at Saboey Resort for 5 nights in April of 2007 and enjoyed a nice stay. The bungalows were clean, well kept and air conditioned. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful in arranging transfers, taxis, car rental and spa reservations throughout our stay. We stayed in two bungalows during our time there, one facing... more

My wife and I stayed at the Saboey for 5 days in September 2007 as part of our honeymoon. The hotel gives to the beach, which is its main asset; we also appreciated the free DVDs that were readily available. On the other hand, our watch, credit card and mobile phone got stolen from our room during our stay and... more

My boyfriend and I decided to splurge and stay in a beach villa at the Saboey Resort for $250/night. The initial welcome was lukewarm, and we were disappointed with the lackluster service (with the exception of Ken, who was always smiling and friendly and spoke the best English of all the staff we encountered). The room itself was nice, but... more

The staff in the hotel make you really feel welcome. Everybody is friendly and helpful and recognizes you where ever you go. The hotel is small but has everything you need for fantastic vacation. All rooms are nicely maintained and pool and bar are located under a lot of palm trees. Although the hotel is right on the beach it's... more

My friends and I actually stayed in a villa next door i.e. Villa Tanamera. Lucky for us Saboey and Villa Tanamera are under the same management, so we were welcome to use the facilities (i.e. the pool and lounge chairs) at Saboey provided we ordered drinks etc and THAT was what we did on our last day in Samui. It... more
