Jungle Club

Nathalie said, "The setting is wonderful, the bungalows clean and really nice to for 600bht. The pool was fab (my daughter loved it) and the music and food was also brilliant watching over Samui. Food a little bit more expensive as you are away from anywhere else but if you are not on a budget, go it well worth it!!!!!!"

Naomi said, "Jungle Club was amazing. We had a group of friends all meeting up in Koh Samui and this was the best place to do it. The staff were entertaining and helpful, the views were gorgeous and the ride up the hill was roller coaster fun!I recommend staying here, for the experience of it!"

David said, "I would definatly reccomend the jungle club... I and this was definetly my favourite.... nice little 5 min drive up through the jungle to get to the peak but once there you have an amzing view of the chaweng beach and out towards the horizon. I had a great view to wake up to .. food was really nice and pretty reasoably priced as well.... plus it wasnt too busy either so most times we had the pool to ourselves."

John said, "Absolutely fantastic! Wonderful very friendly staff, brilliant food. Bungalow was great, with beautiful views. Could have we found it very easy to switch off and relax! Will definitely return when we next visit Thailand! Just perfect!"

Victoria said, "The Jungle Club is such a great place to stay. Its situated up in the Chaweng Valley so you are out the way of all the touristy stuff down on the main strip but can get a lift with the vehicles they have. We you get bugs!! The staff were great and really funny and helpful. Would definately come back!"

Samantha said, "The Jungle club is completely beautiful. The staff were great with alot of charisma and the penang curry is a must!!! Highly reccommened. We will be back."

annishia said, "Beautiful setting up on the hills. The staff can t do enough for you and are very friendly- made me feel at home. Next time I go to Samui I will definately be staying there again."

Joanna said, "Jungle Club was fantastic, best place we exciting ride up and down. very easy to get to Chewang beach and back. Restaurant was great, well priced and always fresh food. Thanks Jacob, Ang, Jay & Joe"

Cole said, "Good location with an awesome view. All of the staff are super friendly and helpful. You won t get everything you expect from a Western hotel unless you ask for it (more towels and toilet paper). I would go for a hut next time as I didn t find getting the house was worthwhile. It would also be nice if they made up the room everyday and the towels didn t smell a little. Overall I am satisfied but again I would have gotten just a hut."

Mr said, "The hotel is fantastic v.good service. So laid back its untrue, but that won t slow you down at all. They provide a good shuttle run into town and 24hr pick up. I was recommended this place and had high expectations. I wasn t let down, the place is gorgeous and the food etc is very good."

Eve said, "Nice clean rooms, really friendly staff, amazing views, set in beautiful grounds which is well kept. Nice refreshing pool to cool down in too. Great if you want to chill out for a few days. We will definitely be going back."

laetitia said, "It s really beautiful calm and sweetPeople are kind and you are sure to spend a very good time with a see view unbelivable"

Marc said, "Very nice hotel. Clean and with a friendly staff. I would go back if I come again. Fantastic view. The hotel was much more then i could ever have hoped for. With only 12-15 hut, it has a cozy atmosephere"

Angela said, "We enjoyed staying at the jungle club. The rooms were nice and the views spectacular. The food was also great and well priced. We went with our young family and they loved it there as they could run around on the grass play with the friendly dogs and the owners children. The owners were friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere relaxed. The kids loved the TV area which was built on a big rock and that gave us adults some time to relax! We had a great time and so did our friends who joined us to eat lunch one day."

Susan said, "Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!! What more can you say. Beautiful resort. Fantastic, friendly, fun staff. Couldn t wish for more. Will definitely return. It is so unique and in such an incredible setting. Views for miles and away from the hustle and bustle and crowds of Koh Samui.A unique experience."

Brian said, "We had an amazing stay at the Jungle Club! The staff was fun and incredibly helpful, the hospitality was amazing. We arrived to find that they had upgraded our room at no cost to us (the house was amazing)and they continually assisted in everyway possible to make our stay and experience the best available. Be prepared to pay in cash for the remainder of the lodging and any meal and drink expenses. You can run a tab for the entire stay, however they do not accept payment via credit card."

Mark said, "Great place, good price, nice staff!!!"

Pannell said, "Absoloutely fantastic! couldn t have asked for better service, the staff were outstanding. Friendly, helpful, all went out of their way to make our stay fantastic. We ."

Stephen said, "Excellent. Was fantastic to chill out for a few days, excellent food and service. I d highly recommend it to anyone heading to Koh Samui."

Kristen said, "Loved the Jungle Club! Getting up there can be a challenge if you do not get picked up, but other than that the place is a treasure on the mountain. Easy trip down to the beach, great bungalow, relaxing atmosphere, beautifully landscaped, good food and friendly people. We were there only one night, but were thrilled we found a totally unique place with superb service at a reasonable price."

Laurene said, "Absolutely Amazing!Staff were the friendliest I ve met. Gorrgeous pool and breath taking views of the beaches. Excellent food and pickup service. I will definately return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

Maj said, "We had the most amazing time at Jungle Club and we are without a doubt returning next year. The nights can be stressful due to the geckos and other animals in the bathroom, but other than that it is perfect if what you want is privacy, breathtaking view and warm and genuine staff. Next year we will opt for the more expensive bungalow with a view."

Carla said, "We originally booked two nights at Jungle Club and loved it so much we ended up staying 4 nights and are returning for another 3 nights after Xmas. The rooms were spacious, staff were friendly and helpful and the whole place is beautifully decorated. The hotel s location makes a refreshing escape from the busy beaches of Chaweng, though the free daily shuttle (plus there is always a driver on hand should those times not be convenient) makes it easy to get there if you want to go."

Markus said, "I was staying at a bungalow. Not very nice. No hot water, no a/c, between wall and roof was open, so there were a lot of moskitos around. They didn t make my room up, so I had to clean it myself. It s on hill and you can only reach it with 4wd jeep or a motorcross bike. No Taxi can drive you to the club. They have a transfer service from and to the bottom at every time with fair prices. The staff was very nice and I had a lot of fun. Great view to the busy Chaweng but without any noises. I think that s the only nice place at Samui."

Lina said, "Just amazing view! Getting there was bit bumpy and crazy but once we got to the place, it was well worth it! We booked at Jungle Hut but upgraded to the lodge! The staff was great and they made everything possible for us. We did not have hot water, although we were supposed to but they let us use another Villa for hot shower. Hanging out at the bar with the staff was so much fun, we loved them! Great music and food was great! This place is a must for those of you who are looking to relax, hang out and be ready to have some fun with the staff!!! We will definatly come back!"

Eran said, "Beautiful place, amazing swimming pool with view of half the island. Friendly stuff. Food a little bit expensive (but all kohsamui is relatively expensive) but very good. Going up and down the mountain is a bit of a hassle and rather expensive. Good place for children. I will stay there again."

SUNG said, "It was the very first time for me staying in this kind of hotels. Simple but elegant, cheap but cozy. The most impressive thing is their service with great passion. We¡¦d also like to say a few words of thanks to the driver. You are so cute and kind-hearted! And I apologize to let you pick us at airport on the wrong date. Thank all of you so much!"

Jerry said, "The hotel was great. We chose a bungalow and it was just fine. Due to an unfortunate motorbike accident, we desired a hot shower one of the nights. I asked if there was another room available to switch to, but the place was fully booked. The staff allowed us to shower in their own facilities; what a pleasant surprise! Additionally, we wanted a ride into town to get some first aid supplies but they wouldn t take us; the manager called his friend, and asked him to bring the things we needed TO SAVE US THE MONEY OF THEM TRANSPORTING US DOWN TO TOWN! With that type of service, we ll return to the JC our next trip to Thailand!!The food was excellent, and despite a post on here to the contrary, I thought very inexpensive for the amount and qualityThe only downside was getting to the place. We had some miscommunications via sawadee (not with JC staff) so there was no taxi waiting on us at the end of the driveway/road to the hotel. We hiked about .5km up the hill before a motorbike came by. It was a JC staff member; he asked us to wait, and then returned in a 4WD to pick us up.The view is breathtaking, and they ll take you down to the beach anytime you want or just to the end of the driveway/road at anytime.Overall, great value for the money if you want to relax and get away from everything."

Bill said, "Our experience at Jungle Club was mixed. The view is spectacular, the grounds are immaculate, and the infinity pool is superb. And now the bad news. The road up the hill requires a serious 4 wheel drive vehicle and the ride up and down can be terrifying for the inexperienced. They provide one free ride in the morning and one free ride back up at about 6pm making it impossible to enjoy dining or entertainment options in Chaweng without seriously expensive trips up and down. As backpackers rather than holiday tourists we opted for the jungle hut which was just fine but dark and mosquito infested. The lighting to walk towards your hut was nonexistent, and the staff was friendly but seemed uninterested in your experience unless you opted for the super expensive cocktails and meals in the restaurant. If you are a holiday tourist that just wants to get away from it all this is for you, but if you are on a serious budget don t let the cheap accomodations fool you. Once you add on the outrageous meals and trips up and down the mountain you are spending some serious cash. We cut our stay days short and found a lovely bungalow right on the beach for the same $ called Kings Garden Resort. They know how to treat their guests with free beach towels, daily cleaning, and staff that seem to care about your needs rather than just making a buck."

Karin said, "I would definitely recommend this hotel. We only have fans and cold water showers. Next time I would go for the air conditioned huts. The atmosphere was fantastic. Very relaxing. Great food and pool. An unbelievable view. It’s an amazing place to relax away from the noise and craziness of Chaweng and Lamai. The ride up to the hut is a little long and bumpy but it’s worth it if you are looking or a quiet safe place to relax. It is fairly far from a beach and Chaweng night life but the shuttle service is convenient. They will pick you up at any time for a charge. All food and shuttle charges are written on a tab for each hut and paid for at the end of your stay. It is in the jungle so bring bug spray (the bugs really only come out for a few hours in the evening) and don’t expect to have internet access. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Staying here was the highlight of our stay on Ko Samui. You can spend the day by the pool or watch DVDs and relax in the restaurant/ bar area of it happens to rain. There was really no reason to leave other than to see the beach. Skip “downtown�Chaweng and Lamai. Stay here and spend some time on Ko Tao instead."

Mark said, "A really beautiful place. We completely safe even for a 12 and 10 year old. The staff are excellent, Valerie and It make you very welcome, the food very good, the views stunning and the bar/restaurant is beautiful. A completely relaxing place to chill out, don t expect 5 star accomodation etc for example no fridges in rooms, mozzie nets, mainly cold/luke warm showers but none of this matters and frankly for the price you can t expect it. The trip up/down the hill is great fun and they provide a 24 hour service, not expensive, also 2 free shuttles to either the beach or Chaweng. The beach at the bottom of the hill is Chaweng Noi and is excellent, with 2 or 3 good beach bars. If you are really looking to be on the beach then it s still worth going if only for 2 or 3 days, we can totally recommend the JC especially for couples or families. We will be returning but probably not in December as the weather is unpredictable and if you are going to spend a lot of money flying out a family of 5 to a tropicsl island you really want guaranteed weather, which you will get in Samui from Jan-August save for the odd shower. Go to the JC with the right attitude and you will have a great time!!"

Daryl said, "We looked at a number of places via the internet, and finally chose the Jungle Club for two reasons, i.e. we liked the look of the place itself & also because all the reviews by previous guests were very positive. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Jungle Club to others; the owners & staff are very friendly & helpful, the facilities were more than adequate for us (the infinity pool is great - what a view!), and the way they have worked with the surrounds when they built the place, rather than clearing swathes of land, is a big plus.The Jungle Club is a great place to stay if you want to get away from the hustle & bustle and relax in a wonderful environment. We hope we have the chance to stay there again in the near future."

Lee said, "Good hotel and Good service!"

Peter said, "Beautifull calm place with stunning view located on the hills only a ten minute drive away from Chaweng ( you need a 4 wheel drive car or motorbike to reach the place). Very friendly and helpfull owners and stuff. Food ok - a bit expensive, but they have to bring all the stuff up there.The jungle huts are small and offer only minimum comfort (fan, moskitonet, running water).I can really recommend this peacefull place - we then moved to Menam beach ( well, the kids preferred a bit more the attractions of the beach ;-)"

Katherine said, "paradise. a perfect ending to my travels. thank you."

Emma said, "Jungle Club was a great place to stay for our first night in Koh Samui. Amazing views and a genuine taste of Thai island life. The trek up to the huts is unforgettable. Thank you.x"

Ciara said, "This was my second time to visit the Jungle Club. We view in which to enjoy your dinner and transport up and down in the jeep when you want it(even at 3 in the morning!!).I have and will continue to recommened this resort to anyone heading to Thailand."

Adreanna said, "The Jungle Club was extraordinary. It was close to very busy Chaweng, so we were never at a loss for something to do, but it was also isolated and quiet, nestled amid coconut trees on the mountain. It was the perfect place for our honeymoon. The view was breathtaking, the accomodations comfortable and affordable, and the staff exceptional. I highly recommend this place!"

Debbie said, "Just great, lovely!Magnif. view! A lovely small jungle hut with a lovely OPEN-AIR bathroom, just great.We recommand it to everybody! But don t worry about the road, even that was very amusing with the great driver! We loved it and we ll go back when we are in Samui again."

Chang said, "great view, clean, friendly service."

G&S said, "Fantastic place, high above Chaweng beach with phenomenal views - a bit of a trek to get there, but well worth the effort. Its a beautifully quiet & relaxing place, but within easy reach of the beach & the action of Central Chaweng if you want it.The staff were really friendly & helpful, and there s a great restaurant on site. We nobody ever came to pick us up...the women who book hotels at the airport didn t seem to be too surprised about this. Everyone at the hotel was really nice. A driver at the hotel will take people down the bumpy road to town/beach at 10:30am or 6pm...no charge. But any other time they charge for the service. The driver was really nice! Very relaxing!"

Julie said, "Great views, nice resort, in the middle of the jungle (1km from main road). The basic huts feature open bathroom windows so mossie spray recommended (net provided)."

Louise said, "Just spent a couple of days at the Jungle Club it was the perfect start and finish to our honeymoon, lovely bungalows set within the coconut palms over looking the bay below, the hosts make you feel very welcome it was very hard to leave! If you want to chill out away from all the crowds and experience something different the jungle place will find you well."

Mark said, "Absolutely fantastic place but keep it as secret as possible! For the money you pay you will not find a more beautiful spot in Chaweng, perfect for lazy days and close enough to Chaweng for crazy nights! Don t worry about being up the mountain as ther regular jeep service 24 hours a day is very good. It and Valerie are the perfect hosts. I for one will be returning as soon as possible!!"

Elfi said, "The Jungle Club is an adventurous, fun place to stay. Up on top of the hills this is an amazing place, where it is already worth booking for the view over Chaweng beach & the island, besides the friendly atmosphere. If you are found of living in harmony with nature & experiencing it on the spot- you are right there. If you do not like climbing up the 30 min up from the beach to the accomodation, the driver is always there to pick up & drop you.This is an accomoadtion not made for the mass tourism, experience the difference."

Jenni said, "The Jungle Club is absolutely gorgeous and especially if you want to escape from the comercialism of Chaweng. The view is amazing, especially from the pool where you can swim and overlook the bay."

Victoria said, "Lovely place, with the most amazing views on the island. Infinity pool, and great bungalows. Stunning views from restaurant and lounging areas and most bungalows. Very reasonable for the quality. If you want to get out, 10mins by free 4WD to the beach and restaurants."

Mr. said, "The owners of The Jungle Club, Valerie and It, are very friendly. The view from the pool is fantastic and the helpfullnes of all the staff was superb. The night pickups were very reasonable and convienient."
