We arrived at this tiny airport in koh samui found our transfer and got on our way, it was a lovely drive lots of lovely scenary. We arrived at the villas at around 2.45 we thought the room would be ready as check in is at 1pm but unfortunately we didn't get to our room until 4pm :( slightly annoying but anyway.....I also noticed that we had been overcharged for our transfer which I confronted the staff about and they tried to give he an excuse but in no way did it make sense! So it got refunded, we were given a wifi code for our room for free as I had join us to the centara club. We arrived to the room.....first impressions it was lovely.....
......we had this gorgeous bath tub with lovely shower over it, we were pleased :) but unfortunately we had many many problems when we arrived to many to name but in the end we had to get the manager we were so unhappy about it, we had payed a lot of money to stay here for a special occasion, and were just unhappy, the manager heave us free dinner and a massage each, but it wasn't about the free stuff it was about getting it right in the first place! Anyway it didn't spoil our holiday but it just wasn't what we expected from a 4 star hotel, one night we had no hot water at all, none in the hot tub or anything, 11 o'clock at night later they said it was a big job and did we want to change rooms! That late at night I didn't think so they had already offered us another room the first day and it was terrible! Anyway after a while we felt we just couldn't complain anymore so we just enjoyed our time there.

....,,we rode around the whole island In about 2.5 hours it was really fun, we stopped for lunch at a lovely part of the island called fishermens village and had the nicest tuna baguette :) we then continued to the rest of the island stopping to take pics, it wasn't like Phuket where there were lovely beaches everywhere there weren't many beaches that weren't privately owned By hotels but we knew we had a lovely beach waiting for us at our hotel so we weren't bothered!
