khman Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Hello, Do you know which hotels in Samui accept without problem outside guests to use their pool, if we take some drinks or food? If possible nice hotel with nice pool on the sea. Thank you for your help! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khman Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 Sorry, I explained it bad. My english is so so... I mean, we do not stay in the hotel, we just would like to come into the hotel pool area, have some drinks and food, and enjoy the pool. Some hotels refuse you use their pool even if you take some drinks, and food. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. ser your English is fine. any native speaker with half a brain understands exactly what you're asking. sorry but I'm not on Samui so can't help you with your search. but you could always try just turning up and pretending you're a guest, that works sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame them, their "luxury" real guests pay a lot of money for the nice facilities and being invaded by a group non-paying guests buying a beer and a sandwich, for example, just to justify the use of the pool, beds, showers, toilets, etc., would p_iss off most people!

Lap pools are scarce in Thailand. During covid times there were packages to use the hotel facilities like pools but I'm not sure if these are available now. Some were including drinks in the price, I remember Anantara in Koh Phangan offering this in Feb 2021. The prices are not cheap and if they charge you for kids too it would be thousands. Call Anantara in Samui (there are 2 of them) and see if they offer something. I vaguely remember Anantara in Chaweng had something at 1500 baht pp, but may be wrong about the price.

Lucky Bones Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I thought the beach was pretty much designed to do this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 If you are in Chaweng - sorry. No idea. Try beach clubs. There are a few there. In Bangrak quite a few used to allow outside guests. Tembo, Chi, Prana, Secret Garden etc. But now, in high season, again no idea. How about renting a room for a day - lower rates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunPer Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Not to my knowledge, but I know a luxury hotel charging non-hotel-guest 1,500 for using one of their sunbeds on the beach, I dare not to think of the fee for both sunbed and pool...

MrJ2U Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Dressed fairly nice and order a drink by the pool. You won't have a problem. You'll even be able to use There big pool towels. They'll be happy to have some business. Some hotels offer day rates. Nice if you have small children or need to take a deuce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently in Europe but around a month ago Lubd in Chaweng had advertisements for "free pool" placed on the beach. However music blasts there all the time and also from the next to it "The Elephant", it doesn't appear to me as a kids playground place. The beach in front of it is very shallow and safe, so it could be the parents in the pool and the kids in the sea ???? Cocktails on promo at sunset. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicalevo Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 The U Samui in Bangrak offers a deal by the pool. It is a minimum spend. I could not read the details on the board advertising it but a quick phone call to them would tell you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk6060 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Hotels do this just as outsiders can use some hotel gyms for a small fee. I would go to the best 5 star on the island and give it a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slabejmarek Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 To put it simply yes. You can. So far i wasnt turned down from any hotel/resort been to ritz, hyat, anantara, Intercontinental and many many more. Either i go alone or with a friend they dont care as long as you buy some drink at least at the pool and if you feel like being polite you can also ask if its ok to use the pool. if they ask you at the reception if you are staying there just tell them you are going to the bar and restaurant and they smile and tell you to enjoy. and to be polite i always order some food and drinks there while i use the pool. Most places are ok they wont even ask you anything. Just smile be polite and order something. One place i know is charging for using the pool is the Library, they have a fancy red pool that tourists like to take picures in. Also Jungle club dont allow outside guests to use their swimming pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
