    I recently stayed at this hotel and had an amazing experience! One of the highlights was the pool, which I could access directly from my room. It was such a treat to step out onto my private terrace and slip straight into the water whenever I wanted. The pool area was clean, beautifully maintained, and never too crowded. Having that direct access made my stay feel extra luxurious and relaxing.

    Never had such an outstanding expérience in a hotel. Rooms are clean, modern and confortable with a direct access to a shared pool. What a pleasure to wake up and swim directly from your Room. Location is amazing, close to a beautiful and quiet Beach ! You will have some amazing sunsets ♥️ And what about the entire Staff ? Lovely, nice and dedicated to your pure confort. It's definetely the Best Hotel I ever went in my life. Thanks for all. Ema & Daniel

    Absolutely nothing

    An amazing hotel in Koh Samui. I wish I had a few more days to stay there. I truly loved it. Very high standard, well designed. The staff were exceptionally kind and friendly – unlike any other hotel I’ve experienced in Thailand. The food at the restaurant was excellent. Everything was just perfect. Will definitely come back 🩷.

    There are few shelves in the closets and it is difficult to store clothes, and the sun loungers are made of sponges lying on the ground, which slip (they are not fixed) and may be difficult for older people to sit on/get up.

    Quiet, peaceful atmosphere, friendly staff, cleanliness, generous breakfast and swimming pool.

    The rooms are packed in, not very spacious yet you have quite a bit of privacy.

    The sunset views from the infinity pool were delightful. I also loved how it was in a quiet area as I know lots of the Samui coastline is quite built up. The service was outstanding and the staff went above and beyond to make our anniversary celebration special. The room is lush.

    Not much around it, in a very quiet area and had to get a taxi in the evenings for dinner. Service for drinks and food was very slow. The standard room is good but you really face the opposite room, so chilling on the deckchairs can be intense.

    Stunning rooms, great staff, quiet beach, lovely pool and chilling area. Good happy hour. We loved our stay!!

    We like to spend some time on the beach and a few Sunbeds with parassol's would have been nice wealso missed having Mango & Papaya for breakfast.

    Tin and his colleagues were super friendly and very helpful. We would definitely use the Flow again. Really liked the personal outdoor pool that we could access from our room terrace at any time.

    Our stay was sensational. The Flow is a chilled resort with a touch of low key luxury.
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Deluxe Pool Access
    • Stayed 10 nights

    Just a few minor points for improvement / to note. One, our shower did not clear / drain water very well. Not sure why, but there seemed to be plug in the drain - perhaps to filter it, but it prevented the water from clearing efficiently. Second, a few more hooks or towel stand in the room would be helpful to hang wet towels. Finally - while the location on the beach is great, it is about a 15 minute walk to the main road and shops via an unsealed road. Having a bike or car is handy to access the towns but Grab Cars / Taxis work well also.

    The facilities of the resort are great - Bar / Restuarant setting with the Coconut trees overlooking the beach, Infinity Pool with plenty of sun chairs and two large massage areas, and the second pool which is right outside (two steps) the room's back door decking. The main infinity pool area also has good, clean toilet and shower facilitates. The beach is a short flight of stairs away. The place manages to create a very chilled vibe. The rooms are plenty big enough for a couple / two people, and is kept very clean. Pool / Beach towels are also provided and changed regularly. The bed is big and comfortable. All the staff are sensational, from reception to the Restuarant / Bar and the housekeeping crew, all friendly and helpful. - Special mention to Ti, Aon and Tia - only because we can't remember all the other names. The included breakfast, and the Restaurant / Bar service throughout the day to dinner, is also very good in terms of quality. Price wise it is comparable to the restaurants / cafes in the towns (Chaweng, Lamai, Fisherman's Village). There are also a host of other eatery options in walking distance nearby - most are on the beachfront. Overall a great place to relax and enjoy Koh Samui. We will definitely be back.

    The only downside is location, you’ll need a scooter to move around but that’s a general condition for the whole island. Gran and Volt are expensive here.

    The room, the pool, breakfast and all the staff were amazing. It’s the best place we’ve stayed in Thailand out of 7 different hotels.

    WiFi was a bit spotty and quite often froze. Breakfast options were a little limited. Quite a distance from main road along dark street so need transport.

    Gorgeous resort. Room was beautiful, spacious and comfortable. Lots of very thoughtful touches like eye masks, bath bomb for bath and evening snacks. Staff were lovely. And main pool is lit up at night with magical lights which is just beautiful!

    Breakfast could be improved. The pool between room is kind of nice but creates a big vis-à-vis. Lacking a bit of privacy. Also it requires maintenance, meaning the staff is working in front of your window.

    Loved that there is not too many rooms. It’s calm and intimate. The room are stylish, clean and confortable.

    Should get little Better with room cleaning. They don’t clean the toilet with detergent and the floor was sometimes dusty and wasn’t clean properly.

    The view and the room are stunning. Such a relaxing atmosphere of serenity. The most beautiful shore at Koh samui!

    We generally liked everything but this was the most expensive place we stayed so we had high exlectations... Suggestions for improvements... 1. Rooms need towel racks or rails; 2. Sun loungers elevated above the ground would ensure lounger mats dried faster (so dont smell); 3. The quality of the resort sofas are inconsistent with the general standard of the resort (suggest upgrade); and 4. Give consideration to providing guests with more than two bottles of water per day.

    The person(s) behind the building of this resort and the architect deserve a big thumbs up because its a very clever little resort. The Flow is small but perfectly formed. The pools are amazing, 2 of 3 are infinity pools above the beach. The public areas are nicely styled, largely neutral colours and calming. The walkways are edged in hedges and small gardens. Just enough green to ensure the resort feels tropical while limiting green maintenance costs ensuring the focus is on the views, pools and rooms. MaeNom is a swimable beach, 5km long, with deep golden sand mostly (small areas of small rocks). We walked its length. Approximately one third of the beach front remains undeveloped. There was some rubbish on the beach but in the scheme of things it wasnt too bad. For what its worth looking in on the other beach front resorts i think The Flow rates at the top of all the options if you want a small intimate elegant resort. The resort is down a short road from the main round island road, which, in that area, seems to be lined mostly with light industrial local places and the odd restaurant. The distance from the road means the the resort is quiet. We stayed in an ocean front room with direct access to the infinity pool above the beach which runs across and is for the sole use of the 5 or 6 ocean front rooms. The room felt secure and was largely private. Each of the toilet and shower were in a separate small room and there was a huge tub to the rear of the bed. The room decor is neutral and soothing. The entire resort is clean and well maintained. We ate breakfast two days and the options were extensive and generally good (more fruit choices please). We ate dinner in house one night and the food was good, albeit portion size was on the small side.

    The hotel is perfect for a romantic holiday so maybe not the best choice for families but being there with a child was no problem at all! If you’re looking for kids entertainment and such this might not be the place to look at.

    Amazing hotel directly at the clean public beach, big and spacious room with own access to pool, delicious breakfast with a good variety of asian and western food, in room towels, beach towels and bathrobe with slippers are provided as was water and small candy in the evening. Very attentive and friendly staff who tries to accomodate all wishes. Cooperation with a scooter-rental nearby which delievers the scooter directly to the hotel. Close to a grocery store and some massage/nail salons; fisherman village is a 7minutes ride with the scooter. We had the most wonderful stay at The Flow and will for sure come back!
