Secret Garden is a is located on the White sandy beach of Big Buddha. Secret Garden is a sure bet if you are seeking the perfect getaway from the hectic and stressful lives from which we all strive to escape. With coconut palms to the waters edge and a relaxed, casual atmosphere there is no pressure to do anything except relax and enjoy.
Secret Garden is a small, family-run resort with English management. Although it only has 9 rooms, they all have their own different character. The first thing that you will notice is the freshness of the interiors; everything is light, clean and airy with varnished teak floors, wooden furniture and white bed linen. They all have their own private terrace with tables and chairs and a sea view and none are more than 30 seconds stroll from the beach.

Accommodation and facilities:
We were expecting a more subdued area on Big Buddha Beach. The street our resort was on was hectic, but the beach front room we had was like being a world away. For the money, it was very good value. The restaurant made the best coffee we have ever tasted, and the owners, John and Rebecca were quite helpful.

Accommodation and facilities:
My wife and I enjoyed a very pleasant stay. Accommodation was good, staff were friendly and helpful and John and his wife, the owners, were excellent hosts.
Reservation service:
Reservation service very efficient.
The transfer to and from the airport was fine, there was a little confusion at the airport with the transfer when we arrived, due apparently to a previous passenger changing flights, but a quick phone call to the taxi company and we were picked up a few minutes later, transfer back was fine and prompt.

Accommodation and facilities:
We enjoyed every minute of our stay in Secret Garden, and will probably go back soon. Magnificent coffee, high quality of food, great atmosphere. Lots of restaurants nearby and calm atmosphere inside the secret garden. The restaurant is on the beach front, so a perfect place to bring children and chill out while they play on the beach. The owner John helped us a lot bookinfg ferry to Koh Phagnan, finding maps, recommending restaurants, what to se and do in Samui etc.
Reservation service:
We got an sms every time we had to check something on the email, there were no porblems at all about the booking.

Accommodation and facilities:
If you are thinking about booking at this resort, the beach front bungalow is the only way to go !!! The beach side are nice enough, but darker and smaller. we LOVED THE beach front kept the sliding doors open to the sea view.
Reservation service:
ok, but not sure why you don t pay for all the stay before you go. If we hadn t liked the resort, I like that we can cancel, but there was a 1 day penalty. So better to pay for all before you go as the resort charged 3% for credit card useage. Didn t like that.

Accommodation and facilities:
fabulous place to stay, very clean, well equipped with home comforts, comfy and really well located. Feels like it is a private beach as it is so quiet, and it really is on the beach!! But the minute you step on to the road there is plenty to do, or it is easy to get a cab into Chaweng (300baht). Big Buddha is only about a 15 min walk away, most of which you can do on the beach and the ferry to Ko Phan yang is literally on the doorstep! Rebecca and John are both very friendly and lovely to be around. It was like a home away from home, I couldn t recommend it more.
Reservation service:
really easy! perfect!

ACCOMMODATION

We are a small, casual beach bungalow property and if you want to laze and do nothing, just enjoy the peace and quiet on the beach, we will leave you alone. If you need any help or advice, we are always on hand and will gladly help you
organize tours, hire a car/motorbike, visit a spa or book ferries for you on request.
