Bandara Spa Resort & Pool Villas, Samui - Koh Samui

Overview

Other facilities

You’ll have no trouble easing into slow, sun-soaked days here, with four outdoor pools spread across the grounds. The main garden pool gives you plenty of space to stretch out – lined with sun canopies, loungers and umbrellas, while the children’s pool sits just beside it with a gentle depth that keeps little ones happy. Closer to the shoreline, the two beachfront pools offer wide, uninterrupted sea views and a laid-back atmosphere that feels made for long, lazy afternoons. Whether you’re after peace and quiet or a more social setting, you’ll find a spot that matches your mood.

When you’re ready to slow things down, Shine Spa brings you into a calm world of warm tones, traditional Thai decor and soothing fragrances. Skilled therapists guide you through a menu of massages, body rituals and therapies that draw on age-old techniques and natural Thai herbs. Treatment rooms feel cocooning and serene, and you can tailor your spa time with everything from gentle aromatherapy to more immersive wellness journeys. If you prefer to keep active, the fitness room gives you a straightforward space to work out at your own pace, equipped with the essentials you need for a morning cardio session or a quick stretch before heading to the beach.

Families are well taken care of at Monkey’s Club, a bright, playful space designed around a Samui Island theme – complete with soft tunnels, themed activity areas and plenty of toys to keep children aged 5 to 12 entertained. Little ones can crawl, climb and create in the colourful play zones, while older kids can join daily activities ranging from painting and cooking to junior boxing and craft sessions. With trained staff on hand, you can take some time for yourself knowing everyone’s happily occupied. Please note that children under five must be accompanied by a parent.

When you want to explore beyond the resort, you’ll have access to a full programme of daily activities – from yoga and Thai boxing to kayaking, beach volleyball and cultural classes.

Dining information

You’ll have plenty of choice when it comes to dining at the resort, starting with Chom Dao Beach Club – the resort’s main all-day dining spot. Set right beside the shoreline, it gives you a relaxed, open-air setting where you can ease into the day with an international breakfast buffet, complete with fresh local fruit, hot dishes and bakery staples. At lunch and dinner, you can switch between flavourful Thai classics and familiar Western comfort food, all served in a space designed to feel bright, breezy and connected to its surroundings. The natural decor, coastal-inspired wall art and creative use of local materials add a sense of place, while the openable roof lets you dine under clear skies during the day and starlight in the evening.

For drinks with a laid-back beachfront vibe, the Seaside Beach Bar sits just steps from the sand, giving you uninterrupted sea views. Its tropical-chic style – natural wood, relaxed seating and soft ambient music – makes it ideal for an afternoon cocktail, a chilled beer, or a fresh juice after a walk along the beach. As the day goes on, it’s also one of the best places at the resort to watch the colours shift across the water. Over by the main pool, the Pool Bar keeps things easy with a menu of refreshing drinks you can enjoy without leaving your lounger. The setting is calm and open, with the lap pool stretching out beside you, making it perfect for dipping in and out of the water between sips or settling in for a quiet hour in the sun.

If you’re celebrating something special or simply want a more intimate meal, you can arrange a Romantic Dinner on the resort’s jetty, where a private candlelit gazebo overlooks the wide expanse of Ao Thai. It’s a peaceful, scenic location that feels set apart from the rest of the resort, ideal for slow, lingering courses and uninterrupted views. When you’d prefer to stay tucked away in your villa, room service means you can enjoy your favourite dishes in complete privacy, whether it's a relaxed lunch indoors or a late-evening meal on your terrace.
