 Rocky's Boutique Resort 

Discover a hidden world

Perfect for a romantic escape, this atmospheric hideaway offers a quiet setting and delicious cuisine.

Set over three small beaches that overlook the tranquil Gulf of Thailand, it’s clear that this beautiful hotel has been designed with privacy and indulgence in mind. Its boutique size makes it feel like an intimate haven that’s far away from the everyday world, complemented by the contemporary Thai décor and authentic atmosphere.

Why we love Rocky's Boutique Resort

  • It’s in a secluded cove right on the beach – or three beaches, to be exact – but only minutes from the shops and bars of Lamai

  • You’ll be struck by the contemporary Thai design from the moment you arrive at its impressive curved wood entranceway

  • There are fish-filled coral reefs on the doorstep for snorkelling discoveries and kayaks for adventures out at sea

  • Foodies will love the quirky espresso bar, the beachside fine-dining restaurant and the Thai cooking classes on offer

We couldn‘t imagine a better honeymoon. We stayed in the new Lofty with Pool Access. It was such a lovely room. The Resort is so clean and very well Build. There are lots of trees and flowers. Every single staff member was exceptionally friendly, warm, and always helpful - this made our stay truly special. Each day, we were delighted by culinary masterpieces. You get beautiful plates and not a buffet as you know it from big Hotels. I can also recommend the Thai & Oil Massage :) We look forward to returning one day!

From the moment we arrived we were made very welcome. The resort has a beautiful location on right on the beach. There are a number of beautiful pools to choose from, if you don’t fancy the beach that day. The restaurant serves up excellent food options from an early breakfast to a late dinner. A few times a week there are special events/ meals. I particularly enjoyed the fire show beach barbecue. I found the drinks a lot pricier than other options nearby, that said the service was better too.

We’ve been to Thailand several times, but Rocky’s Boutique Resort on Koh Samui was by far the best hotel we’ve stayed at. The location is absolutely beautiful – quiet, right by the sea, and with stunning views. The whole place is really well taken care of, and the rooms were super clean and nicely decorated. What really stood out for us was the amazing staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, always there when you needed something but never too much. You can tell they truly care about the guests. We also loved the breakfast – a great mix of à la carte and buffet, with lots of delicious options. There were so many thoughtful extras too, like little afternoon treats, a welcome drink, and sweet surprises in the room. It just made the whole experience feel really special. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxed – perfect for unwinding. For us, this place was something truly special and we’d absolutely come back. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a quiet, beautiful escape with top-notch service.
