HOTEL REVIEW: Vana Belle, Koh Samui

on
July 5, 2022

Vana Belle, a Luxury Collection Resort, was my first stay during my first visit to the stunning tropical island of Koh Samui, Thailand. The lovely airport on the island is about 15-20 minutes away from Vana Belle, which is situated on the east coast of the island and appears to be the most populous. The Marriott hotel group is made up of several brands, and Luxury Collection is one of them. It is at the top of the heap alongside other luxury brands. I’ve been to and covered many of these places over the years, and each time I did so, it was a wonderful experience. I, therefore, had rather higher hopes for Vana Belle before even coming!


Arrival

To reach Vana Belle, I had made direct arrangements for a transfer with the hotel. The pickup was really efficient and expertly done. It took me only around 20 minutes to get there. When I got there, the personnel checked me in smoothly and swiftly. The area in the foyer where guests checked in really had a stunning sea view. It rapidly gets visitors in the festive spirit and really set the tone for what was to follow. I was soon led to my accommodation, which was on the top level of the resort’s initial building.


The Space

My enthusiasm peaked when I entered the stunning room and took in the breathtaking view. The space was enormous, with two areas dividing the various regions. A king-size bed, sitting area, minibar, desk, coffee/tea station, lounge space, private infinity pool, and other amenities were available in the opulent accommodation.

The highlight of this magnificent lodging was the lovely private pool and the breathtaking outlook. The master bath was a magnificent work of art. It had a bathtub stall, a shower stall, an outdoor shower, a toilet stall, soft towels, and high-quality amenities.

The Hotel Vana Belle, a Luxury Collection Resort, is located on the island of Koh Samui and is incorporated into the side of a sizable hill that leads to a stunning beach. Along the beach, there are numerous pools, incredible seating areas with both shaded and un-shaded options, a pool bar, and a ton of helpful, friendly staff members. It’s a genuine tropical haven! Throughout my stay, I noticed that most visitors hung around the beachfront swimming pool, and with good cause.


The Hotel Grounds

Breakfast is served at Kiree the Bistro, which is located roughly halfway from the top of the slope to the beach. Like other elements of the resort, the breakfast is exceedingly lavish and delicious. Only the finest food was available, whether it was from the buffet or the a la carte menu. Throughout my stay, the buffet had a variety of hot meals that changed every day. I gave a few of them a try and have to admit that they were delicious. The combination of all this fantastic cuisine, attentive service, and such a breathtaking sea view is a surefire prescription for success.

I was also really delighted by the Panali Thai restaurant, which is located near the beach. I had the opportunity to taste a wide range of dishes from their Thai and Western cuisines throughout the course of my stay at the hotel. Due to my extended absence from the nation, I initially concentrated only on Thai dishes that I have truly enjoyed but I also tried some of the international dishes that were delicious and well presented.


Final Impressions

I had a wonderful time at Vana Belle, a Luxury Collection Resort, on Koh Samui. Overall, everything went really well and was pleasurable from start to finish. The employees performed an excellent job, and everything was flawless.

Vana Belle is a terrific choice if you wish to unwind in a tropical paradise and enjoy ultimate luxury. True to their name, their goal is to unwind. I had a wonderful time at this hotel and would highly suggest it to all of you!
