The service at the Lodge is beyond outstanding. Each time we have asked for anything it has been graciously given. First, prior to our arrival, I requested a room with an unobstructed balcony view. We were thrilled that our request was granted. The rooms are all oceanfront with no obstructed view, but I believe our room was hand-picked for us. Secondly, our balcony had hard back chairs so we asked the manager if we could buy them and leave them on the balcony. Immediately, he took us to their storage found chairs that were great for us. He even put similar chairs on the beach to add to the lounge chairs that were already there. He also noticed we woke up early and offered an electric kettle so we can make coffee before the restaurant opens. The breakfast, a huge western breakfast, is superb. The first morning, the bacon was not as cooked as we liked, and although we didn't say anything, when the manager came to greet us at breakfast he saw that we had not eaten our bacon. He asked if it was to our liking and we said we liked it crispy. Each morning since that time, the bacon has been perfect! For those who have read that the Bophut beach is not as desirable as others on Koh Samui, please trust us. The water and beach were extremely clean and very swimmable. My husband and I were in the sea several times a day and loved the warm water. Although it was not crowded, there were many, many people swimming everyday and night! The hostel itself is great. The bathroom is not as modern as we are used to, but it is clean and certainly functional. The room is small, but when you lie down in bed, you look straight out to the French doors to the Sea of Thailand. The floors are beautiful, hardwoods polished to a perfect shine. On the other side of the room is the door going out to the renowned Fisherman's Village and just steps from a plethora of restaurants from 5-star to take-out. We will definitely stay here again! We felt like we took a chance and our experience has been nothing but 5-star.
