It’s a beautiful hotel with great helpful staff. Restaurant is good with delicious food. Pool is nice and rooms are lovely. The one disappointment is the beach that it’s on - sea wasn’t very inviting and there was quite a lot of ugly concrete fronting on to the beach.

We could not find fault with this Boutique Hotel. We were staying 14 nights for our 40th Wedding Anniversary. The hotel was beautiful peaceful but in easy reach of restaurants in the main town if you needed. We chose the breakfast only option and views in the morning were stunning. Staff were outstanding throughout and were able to deal any requests. We would recommend this hotel for any quiet retreat.

Renovation work being completed around the pool every day so loud noise and paint fumes. Room nice but a dangerous high step down from bed. Noisy air conditioning unit. Service slow.

A Spectacular and Fantastic Stay at Zazen!

Our stay at Zazen in Bophut was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were met with exceptional service that made us feel truly welcome. The surroundings were absolutely stunning, with lush gardens and a peaceful atmosphere that added to the charm of the hotel. The food was delicious, with a great selection of high-quality dishes that impressed us every time. On top of that, the entire place was beautifully designed, with an aesthetic that made the experience even more special. We truly felt that we got great value for money and would highly recommend Zazen to anyone looking for a luxurious and unforgettable stay on Koh Samui. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful settings, nice pool, very good pool beds, excellent service, delicious food. The only downside was the availability of pool beds. The hotel allows guests to reserve beds early in the morning by placing towels on them, even if they leave and return hours later. This practice left other guests without a place to relax by the pool.

I booked for 10 nights but only stayed for 5 due to an incident and the hotel was good enough to organise a refund for the balance of the nights not stayed which was appreciated. I highly recommend staying beachfront in villa 1 as the sunrise over the ocean is incredible.

We had an amazing four-day stay at Zazen Boutique Resort in Koh Samui. The cabins were spacious and beautifully designed, featuring a cozy sofa area where we enjoyed Netflix in the evenings. The food was exceptional, especially the Thai dishes—we loved the Massaman curry, morning glory, tamarind prawns, and Panang curry. The buffet breakfast offered a great selection as well. The pool area was stunning, with comfortable day beds perfect for relaxing. We also had a wonderful experience at the spa, where we enjoyed our first Thai massage of the trip. In the evenings, we often played pool and explored Fisherman’s Village for food and massages. Renting a bike is the best way to explore the island. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. With its beachfront location and excellent service, Zazen was the perfect getaway—we’ll definitely be back!

We chose to stay here as we have been to the restaurant many times before it was renovated and the food was always superb. However, I’m afraid that is not the case anymore. The food was mediocre and nothing to rave about. The bar guys didn’t know how to make cocktails even though they were on the menu. I asked for a Bloody Mary and after 5 minutes of faffing around and trying to work out to make it, I cancelled it and ordered a coke. The floor the the restaurant is filthy and we had 6 breakfasts here and the same food was still on the floor and dirt marks for all of the 6 days. Room was beautiful and very clean and very happy with the room. Doubt I will return. Also in their brochure it says the hotel is aimed at influencers and I don’t want to be surrounded by people keep taking photos and only buying an orange juice.

Süßes kleines Hotel, sauber, freundliches Personal, tolles Frühstück. Der Strand ist bedingt gut zum Baden geeignet. Da gibt es auf der Insel schönere Strände. Essen und Trinken ist im Hotel sehr teuer. Alle Preise sind als Nettopreise ausgewiesen. Zu den überhöhten Preisen kommen zusätzlich 7% Steuern und 10% Servicepauschale hinzu. Alles sehr intransparent. Preise für Spreisen und Getränke in mindestens gleicher Qualität außerhalb des Hotels sind 50-75 % günstiger. Daher ist das Hotelrestaurant i.d.R. auch recht leer, obwohl man dort schön sitzt.
