Our stay at Varinda Garden Resort was absolutely lovely, and what made it truly special was the incredible staff and the wonderful breakfast each morning. From the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, always ready to help with anything we needed. Their hospitality created such a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, and it felt more like staying with family than in a hotel. Breakfast was a highlight of our stay. The selection was delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared, with a great variety to suit different tastes. Sitting down to such a high-quality breakfast each morning was the perfect way to start the day. Varinda Garden Resort is a peaceful and charming place, made exceptional by the people who run it and the care they put into every detail. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming stay.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the eclectic look of the entire resort and how it is nothing like any resort/hotel we’ve ever stayed. Although its location is not “close” to restaurants, shopping, the beach, etc., they are within 10-20 minutes walking distance. The photos shown on different sites do not capture what you will experience when you are there. I would highly recommend this resort!!!

This was perfect for us.... we felt very much at home here. It's a little rough around the edges in places but we stayed in shiny resorts that were stale and pomp. Lovely friendly staff. Great to see children enjoying themselves not on screens. Impossible to see all the artwork, every day we'd see something new. We would definitely come back here.

Whimsical Getaway

This resort is absolutely magical! It felt like a whimsical garden of Eden. The staff were amazing and super nice. They helped us rent scooters, book excursions and massages, and even personally drove us to the pier on our last day. Breakfast was good, and one of the resort dogs is a sweetheart! He would come and greet me every time we returned on our scooters. The family suite has an amazing view and porch to relax on. Since it’s a rustic room I expected to see a lot of bugs and geckos but it was super clean and bug free. The only thing that could improve was the beds were pretty firm. Overall I highly recommend and I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Absolutely beautiful experience, very old school Samui. You could spend hours looking at the art all over the resort. Pool was refreshing with a view over the water. Bit of a walk to the beach or Lamai, this place is best enjoyed with a rental car or scooter. Rooms a bit rustic but it adds to vibe.

Awesome Decor and Clean

Great place with awesome decoration and art, possibly hippie inspired. Beautiful view from pool area. Each unit is a private bungalow. Tie dyed sheets were a nice touch. It is a bit of a walk down the hill to the beach and simce I injured my foot the day before I stayed only one night and got a beachfront room. Only negative is that it is not beach front.

Beautiful, unique and full of love

This was the greatest place I have ever stayed. It is family owned and you can tell the staff really care and love it. It is extraordinarily clean - the room, pool area, restaurant ... spotless. The beach and town were very easy to access down a path (maybe 10 min?). The upcycled decorations and inspirational signs around the property created a loving, positive vibe. I have not a single bad thing to say about this place. It was absolutely perfect and I highly recommend it!
