2nd Closest Hotel: MM House
MM House near Samui Airport- Distance by road to Samui Airport: 1.3 km
- Star Rating: 2 star
- Price: from 700 THB per night
The MM House is a basic 14 room hotel offering air-conditioned private rooms. The hotel is too far from the airport to walk there, but still close enough for a very quick and inexpensive journey to the airport in a local taxi. The hotel provides limited room service for basic Thai food. The hotel is about 20 minutes walk away from any bars and restaurants which may be inconvenient for some visitors, particularly those with young children, although there plenty of local taxis which you can use. Overall one of the cheapest of the options for a overnight stay near Samui Airport.
3rd Closest Hotel: Sasitara Residence
Pool villas at the Sasitara Residence- Distance by road to Samui Airport: 1.5 km
- Star Rating: 3 star
- Price: from 553 THB per night
Bungalow resort with a communal pool and some more expensive rooms with private pools. This hotel is near the coast but a good 20 minutes walk to the north of busy Chaweng town where you will find lots of bars, restaurants and shops. The location is the reason why this otherwise good resort is cheaper than comparable, but better located hotels, on the island. A taxi to the airport booked through the hotel will cost 300 THB.
4th Closest Hotel: Bhundhari Resort and Spa
Bhundhari Resort and Spa on Chaweng Beach- Distance by road to Samui Airport: 1.5 km
- Star Rating: 4 star
- Price: from 1,804 THB per night
The Bundhari Resort and Spa has some good points and some bad points and receives a lot of good reviews as well as a lot of complaints. The resort is split done the middle by road, with most of the facilities on the beach side, and the cheaper accommodation some distance away on the hillside. The location is good, near the beach and the town, although the accommodation on the hillside is a little inconvenient to reach, although the resort will drive you there in a buggy which will normally come to reception on request within a couple of minutes. This resort is long overdue modernisation and renovation which is why it is relatively cheap for a 4 star property.
5th Closest Hotel: Samui Backpacker Hotel
Pool area at Samui Backpacker Hotel- Distance by road to Samui Airport: 3.2 km
- Star Rating: 3 star
- Price: from 600 THB per night
This large hotel has a mix of private rooms and dormitory rooms will best suit younger travellers. The rooms are cheap and good.

There are restaurants and bars not far away, and the hotel is close enough to walk to the ferry pier for boats to Haad Rin on Koh Phangan, which is the town where the Full Moon Party takes place. The hotel will organise a shuttle to the airport for 250 THB per person.
