I stayed in the ark car at the beginning of October. I was abit reluctant to stay here after seeing the pictures on trip advisor. But the rooms have just been redone in the new part and our room was nothing like the photos on here. It was lovely there Was plenty of room, really clean, bathroom was very modern with a built in shower. The hotel has 3 pools, 2 quieter ones and one party pool where there are party's on Wednesdays and Fridays. Perfect for young people looking for a lively holiday OR a relaxing one. The hotel had its own part on the beach where there were sun loungers for the day time and then they were turned into tables on a night so that hotel guests and anyone else could visit for a drink or food on the beach. The hotel was always busy with daytime and evening music. I will defiantly be returning to Koh Samui and i will 100% be staying in this hotel.
