World Resort, Bophut Beach
We stayed in the family bungalow which was very pleasent although also very basic - not much decor to speak of; definitely function over form. Would be nice if the bathroom were a bit better maintained and if there were more art but neither were siginicant issues. The entire bungalow was VERY clean and the beds were comfortable. The family bungalow was is in a very quiet spot inspite of being near the pool - a pleasent surprise.
The resort itself was terrific. Nice pool and good beach with lots of beach chairs. The highlight is the restaurant which served the best food we had on the island at GREAT prices and terrific atmosphere - lovely beach views and sea breezes. The many meals we had there were a highlight of the trip.
The staff and service were great and reponded to every request. We all felt we we re treated like family.
I all I recommend World Resort highly as a cost effective full service resort. If your expecting 5 star room decor and atmosphere you ll be disappointed but that s not what your paying for. If you are looking for a clean, reasonably priced resort with a freindly family atmosphere, you ll be very happy here. We hope to come back soon.

Booking service was easy and every thing went smoothly. Seems very reliable. Communication was clear and very freindly and informative.

Overall comfy and cozy... excellent mature garden... beach was a disappointment as it was nearly covered by high tide during my stays...was made to pay extra THB350 for a ceramic shampoo bottle which was poorly placed and easily entangled with the shower hose...water pressure for the shower was also poor...otherwise, the room was excellent for our family...

easy and fast..

World Resort, Bophut Beach
We stayed in a Beach view Bungalow for 5 nights. The resort picked us up and dropped us back to the airport at no extra cost. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast buffet fine. Dinner menu not great and restaurant closed during our stay. Two dogs in resort not good, but waitresses realized I didn t like dogs and kept them away from me. Too far from Fishermans Village to walk. Bungalow really nice and close to beach. Complimentary thai massage brilliant.
Overall nice resort, if weather had been better could have enjoyed the beach and the walk to Fisherman s Village would have been ok.
Way too many dogs in Koh Samui for my liking!

No hassle. Brilliant. Would have been nice to have the facility to contact hotel once booking made if we wanted to ask any questions or request something.

We arrived early and had no problems checking in earlier than we were suppose to. The staff were very friendly and nice and did everything they could to make sure we had a pleasent stay. We were upgraded to a bungalow which was very clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend The World Resort to others when staying in Bophut. Fantastic.

very easy with no problems.

World Resort, Bophut Beach
The bungalows are nice, had an interconnecting room. Good shower and clean. Nice quiet garden. The beach was ok, but the water is bad, not the kind you want on your vacation. There are better beaches elsewhere. Our children prefered to swim in the pool. Staff is great, friendly and smiling. Buffet breakfast is good. There aren t many shops and restaurant in the area, everything is expensive, so is fishermans village. The best we found was Mr. Poo s barbeque buffe 99B. Aroi, Aroi!!.
All in all, The resort is great for a nice , quiet vacation with family.
Eventough i prefer stay elsewhere.

World Resort, Bophut Beach
Lovely quiet resort, well suited for families and couples. Service is very good and friendly and the staff speak good English. There aren t alot of shops or bars near the Resort, but this is arguably a good thing rather than a bad thing. On the beach, has a nice swimming pool, bar and free english buffet breakfast and there are travel agents close by to organise day trips etc.
Convenient and insular. After a week it felt very much like a home away from home.
Watch out for a couple of mossies in the bungalows though.

World Resort, Bophut Beach
We ( wife and two children ages 5 and 3yrs) had the pleasure of staying at world resort for one week. The children had the time of their life, they were spoilt by the resort staff, and nothing was a problem, the pool area was great and the resort food was wonderful, we ate out a few times,the local fisherman s village, which is close by and had some good resturants and some little shops to look at. The beach area (if you are Australian)is not that spectacular,but it has no waves for little one s to swim safely in.The accommodation a little old, it is very clean and is a traditional Thai resort, the grounds are beautiful and the service is unbeatable, I would stay again.

It was great, no problems, quick and safe.

World Resort, Bophut Beach
This is exactly the kind of place we were looking for - natural environment, quaint bungalows, completely unpretentious. Also had all the services of a big resort such as massage, spa, swimming pool, room service, cable tv etc., but without the sterile atmosphere of the big/corporate resorts. We went with our 5 year old and he had a blast. There were also couples there too who seemed to be enjoying themselves. The beach is nice and quiet, but close enough to both Boput Fisherman s Village and Maenam town for short outings. I was worried about previous comments of the pool tiles cutting some kids feet, but the pool area looks to have been recently renovated. Great value for the money. Will definitely visit again - the sooner, the better.

Great. Really efficient at answering my hundreds of questions. Will recommend to friends.
