Rattana is a well kept budget hotel a short walk to beach and main street fir food and shopping although rattana provides excellent meals.

I spent 6 nights at Rattana Guesthouse in June 2026. It was very peaceful and restful, As I had been just previously 2 weeks on holiday on another continent on a hectic schedule, I found Rattana the perfect place to relax and enjoy the no-rush half of my holiday. The staff were very polite and friendly and the main host (I've forgotten her name!) was very helpful and has a good to excellent level of English that made the experience easier for me as I've only learned a few simple words of Thai. My ground floor room, near the pool, was a standard and was clean with a comfortable bed. I used the pool 4 or 5 times. As it was low season, there were not many guests to compete for the lounge chairs around the pool edge. This suited me. I used the guesthouse restaurant several times for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The service was good and the food was tasty. While Chaweng is generally busy and noisy, the position of this place means you don't get the street noise, so it's generally quiet. As construction appears to have started on the large block of land on the reception / restaurant side of the guest house I am happy it was only slow pile driving I heard occasionally during business hours and didn't disturb the overall tranquil vibe. I would have no hesitation booking a stay at Rattana l should I visit Koh Samui again.

This place was exactly what we wanted, a room with the pool outside it but less than a 2 min walk to the beach. A one minute walk to the main road. The room had excellent AC, I asked for a bed topper and it was so comfortable! The mother daughter owners were excellent. They had food onsite which was delicious and a little store in case you needed anything ! We were so happy we stayed here as a mother/ daughter from Canada.

Hi this hotel was shocking we checked in and checked out was infested with bugs ants and over things the superior room was not even as good as a cheap hostel full complained and got no refund shocking experience

Staff were amazing. So helpful and friendly & bent over backwards to ensure you had the best stay possoble

The owners and staff are amazing. The room was spotless. The pool and area is fabulous. The food is wonderful and excellent value. Great location. Close to the beach and town but very peaceful.

Missing this place already, lovely welcome. Fab food. Aloe massage on the white sandy beach 2 mins away after my morning swim. All the busyness of Chaweng at the other end of the lane, include Pride bar or Alpha gay resort a ten minute walk. In the room I couldn’t hear a thing other than the occasional plane. Even liked the retro decor. At £15 a night with an Expedia discount, this was incredible value for money given the location.

Room was basic but clean.

Very accommodating they let me slide until my check came into pay for my extended visit.

Room was clean. A bit musty. Ac was pretty loud. Convenient location, nice pool. Friendly staff.
