Help & FAQ

Website prices and advertising credit are in THB. Stripe shows the available payment currency at checkout. Contact and enquiry-form openings share a maximum of one charge per visitor and venue in 24 hours; submitting the enquiry does not add another charge. Views and directions are free. Purchased and promotional credit are shown separately.

Premium eligibility uses the category Premium bid and available delivery capacity. The threshold is locked for 30 days. Your confirmation states the social, newsletter and homepage quotas for that period. Renewal is reviewed with notice; category ranking is separate from these manual benefits.

No. We save the enquiry and show delivery status separately for the venue and your confirmation. Replies go directly between you and the venue. Samui Beach Club does not manage the booking or take commission. Marketing follow-up requires separate consent.

We're an independent guide to Koh Samui's beach clubs, resort day-pass places, and beachfront restaurants. Our goal is to help visitors find the right spot for their style and budget, with honest information and local insight.

Head to the Beaches section and select your beach. Each beach page lists nearby places, along with conditions information and what to expect from that stretch of coastline.

The Meta Rating is our aggregated score combining reviews from Google, Facebook, and TripAdvisor. It gives you a broader picture than any single platform alone.

We pull ratings from major review platforms, weight them by review volume and recency, and calculate a combined score. The methodology favours places with consistent ratings across platforms rather than those with a high score on just one.

We verify place details regularly, but things change. Opening hours, prices, and contact details can shift without notice. If something looks wrong, please let us know via the Contact page.

Not yet. We're working on booking features, but for now you can contact places directly using the details on each place page.

The Weather page shows current and seasonal information for beaches around the island. Each beach page also includes weather information specific to that location.

Our tide charts display predicted high and low tides, helping you plan activities like swimming, kayaking, or simply ensuring there's beach to sit on when you arrive.

The dry season runs roughly December to April, with February and March typically the calmest. The Gulf of Thailand side means Samui's seasons differ from Phuket and the Andaman coast. Our conditions pages break this down by beach.

Sunset times are calculated for Koh Samui's coordinates and are accurate to within a few minutes. West-facing beaches like Lipa Noi and Taling Ngam offer the best sunset views.

We include places we've visited or thoroughly researched. Selection is editorial, not paid. We look for places worth knowing about, whether they're well-known beach clubs or quieter spots that deserve attention.

We'd like to hear from you. Visit the Contact page and select "Partnership Opportunity". Listings are free and we maintain editorial independence over how places are presented.

Please use the Contact page and select "Report an Error". Include the place name and what needs correcting. We appreciate the help keeping things accurate.

No. Listings are free and editorial decisions are ours. We don't accept payment for inclusion, placement, or reviews. This keeps our recommendations honest.
