The Briza Beach Resort, Samui

The view and our room was great. However the two complaints we have were that the hotel was very accommodating when we arrived early and there are not beach chairs, all the chairs facing the ocean were basically shaded by trees. Would stay again but was disappointed by those two things.

We had an ocean front room with a private pool which was absolutely gorgeous. We both loved it. I am not sure would have liked the other rooms as much so if you want to stay here pay extra for the ocean front rooms - you won't regret it! Only negative point was that buffet breakfast wasn't great especially for British style breakfast - 'muesli' was just oats; bacon was always empty and had to be asked for every day; baked beans were always virtually empty and cold; juice was overconcentrated and far too sweet; fruit was warm. Room service food was good and cocktails were lovely. My husband tells me that the beer in the minibar was cheaper than in the supermarket! Overall a great stay apart from breakfast (but that didn't really bother us anyway)

location was great,the pool was in a funny place, the resorts drink prices were expensive

This hotel should definitely not be a 4 star. The look of the room is pleasing and the design of the hotel fantastic but there is no luxury to classify the resort as 4 star Rooms are only serviced in the late afternoon and the food made us all sick, so we stopped even having breakfast in the hotel. All bad reviews have a response from the hotel saying that they are going to improve.

From the moment we arrived the staff did everything they could to make our stay as easy and enjoyable as possible. The resort itself is beautiful and has direct access to the beach. We stayed in a 2 bedroom with our own private pool which was fantastic and also cleaned daily. This was our second visit to the Briza and we will definitely be back again.

the staff is so awesome at this resort. Who ever is in charge of hiring and training is doing an excellent job. Michelle and Net (not sure of the spelling) at the front desk are outstanding. Net gave me a ride to my destination after she got off work one afternoon. The staff at the food area was so friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome, Ruth and Toto are performers who know more songs than you realize. So nice and very open to requests. We will stay again if we go back to Samui.

Very clean. Good breakfast but could be better with bacon. Staff was friendly & helpful.

Fabulous private pool beachside villa! The resorts decor is a little outdated, the bed was extremely firm, the food was a little bland, andthere were a ton of mosquitoes, but the staff was fabulous, the villa itself was exquisite, and overall we enjoyed our stay immensely. Thank you, Briza!

We had a great 2 week stay here. The staff at the Briza are exceptional - friendly, helpful and always smiling! Jenny and the wait staff were lovely - they were always efficient, helpful, and great to have a conversation with and a fantastic sense of humour.Our suite was great with a plunge pool, the bed was Ginormous, the shower roomy, the suite cleaned daily. Breakfast was included. But without a doubt, the staff are its bighest asset - THANKS TO YOU ALL

The size of the rooms are incredible. 2 story private villas with 2 separate bathrooms and lovely balcony. The swim up bar was brilliant and the bar staff working were so friendly. Highly recommend this hotel. Stunning and right on the beach too.
