We had a wonderful stay at Grand Manita 💛 Everything was very clean and well maintained, and the whole place has such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. What really stood out to us, though, were the people. incredibly kind, warm, and always helpful with anything we needed. You truly feel taken care of here, not just as a guest, but as a person. Thank you for your hospitality! 🙏

Very safe, quiet and comfortable. Lots of options for dining near by and honestly the very best swimming beach on Ko Samui.

A very quiet secluded resort, right on the beach. Rooms are clean and nicely furnished, no TV, just kick back and relax. Pool situated over looking the beach. The beach is shallow, at low tide you'll see it's not great for swimming, but the pool is spot on. No reception at the moment, assuming due to the quiet season, but staff were ready enough to get a hold of when required. Mattresses are normal for the region. Quite firm. I enjoyed my stay, the staff were great, local dining very nice, massage at Lilly's towards Silver beash worth a visit. Shade Coffee is great, Renu and Tips Tacos are great too, Kawins Kitchen too.

Very quiet and peaceful, very good value for money

Very quiet and peaceful and great value for your money.

From the moment I made the booking, Wen was in touch and confirmed airport pick up and transfer. Very smooth and executed well: the taxi was at the airport with a printed out name sheet (ie not hand written!). The accommodation itself is ideal: the room is large with lots of space to manoevre. Aircon unit and fridge a god-send. Electric shower with hot water - you might not always want hot water at 30 degrees but it's good to have for early in the morning when cold water isn't that welcome. Two bottles of still water in the room every day is a bonus. The pool and beach front are extremely pleasan and very quiet: an ideal way to spend a relaxing chill out holiday. Deng who manages the massage concession by the pool is brilliant. A very good massage therapist who understands manipulation well, unlike some places where I've had massage and the therapist goes through set moves like an automaton without taking any cognissace of the person they are manipulating! Not Deng, she was extremely sensitive to areas of concern and worked away at them diligently and gently. I've been to Samui a lot over the last 20 years and I'm only kicking myself that I didn't find Grand Manita sooner. It is now my number one destination when in Samui. I wouldn't stay anywhere else! Thank you all for making my visit so trouble-free.

Overall I was very pleased with the Grand Manita. It is located directly on the beach and is a 20 minute walk along the shore to all of the tourist activities. The walk is easier at low tide, at high tide you have to wade a bit. Also, the sand is softer at this end of the beach. The hotel staff were very friendly and accomodating. The only drawback was the restaurant. Two times I ordered two different traditional Thai dishes, and recieved the same generic noodle dish. It was quite yummy but not what I had pointed at on the menu! The room was excellent value given the price. A/C worked well, linens were clean and nice, lovely sitting area on the balcony. It was a wonderful stay.

Amazing

A few of us friends stayed at the Grand Manita because friends of ours were getting married right next door, at a place way over our budget. I stayed in one of the small rooms (as opposed to a whole bungalow) but it was by no means small. Bed might be hard for some. The TV was a trendy CRT, but hey you're at the beach... nonetheless it does have all the cable channels incl.BBC, bloomberg etc. The breakfast might look simple (not buffet), but it's tasty and the coffee was surprisingly decent. It was walking distance to food and massage, and we also rented scooters from the hotel so easily went everywhere on those. The airport car service was good too, definitely recommend it for the sake of convenience. Staff were lovely and made us feel at home. The pool is nice, though it's hard to decide whether to swim in the sea or there. Beach sand is not exactly fine, but we weren't going for that kind of luxury holiday so it worked perfectly for us. My one complaint is that there is no mosquito prevention in the rooms, so I was going to bed knowing I was about to become victim to the (at least) three mozzies I failed to catch. I did speak to the front desk lady about it, who said they'll look into it. Bed net is needed, and preferably also screen doors, hopefully they will sort it out soon.
