“Lamai's split verdict”
On Lamai Beach, The Lamai Samui inspires both amazing-experience verdicts — a luxury-treatment Ocean Pool Villa, friendly helpful staff, beautiful architecture, comfortable rooms, a great breakfast and a sky-view shower — and serious dissents: one guest flagged ongoing construction that's very loud and a badly-located position with a pricey restaurant, while another called the hotel quite outdated and over the odds, citing smelly bedding and stinky pillows while trading on its former Le Méridien status.
