Overview
Rattana is a guesthouse-and-bungalow set-up on Chaweng Beach Road, with an outdoor pool tucked into a tropical garden. It's on the main strip, yet the garden gives it a quieter feel than its address suggests, and there's even a reading corner.
You can choose between fan rooms and air-conditioned ones, which is useful if you'd rather keep costs down or simply prefer a fan at night. Rooms have a TV and a fridge. The front desk can book tours and rent you a car or motorbike, and there's an airport shuttle.
Highlights
- Outdoor pool surrounded by garden
- Two-minute walk to Chaweng Beach
- Fan or air-conditioned rooms

- Car and motorbike rental, plus a tour desk

Location
The address is 132 Chaweng Beach Road, in the main stretch of Chaweng on the east coast. Restaurants, bars and shops line the road in both directions, and the sand is a couple of minutes away.
Hin Ta and Hin Yai, the famous rock formations at Lamai, are about ten minutes' drive south, and the Big Buddha temple around 20 minutes north. The property estimates the airport at 20 minutes by car, though traffic on the beach road can make it quicker or slower.
Address 132 Chaweng Beach Rd, Tambon Bo Put, Ko Samui District, Surat Thani 84320, Thailand
