Panviman Resort

A Great Stay with Stunning Views and Spacious Rooms!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a hotel that left me thoroughly impressed with its beautiful views and spacious rooms. While there were a few areas that could use some improvement, overall, my experience was fantastic.

The views were breathtaking and the rooms at this hotel were incredibly spacious, offering ample room to move around and relax, ensuring a comfortable stay.

However, it's worth mentioning that the gym facilities appeared a bit tired. While the equipment was functional, it could benefit from some refurbishment and modernization. Despite this minor setback, I appreciated the effort put into maintaining cleanliness and providing a space for guests to work out.

The breakfast area was an absolute delight. The gorgeous setting created a pleasant and inviting environment. The variety of options available catered to different tastes and dietary preferences.The attentive staff added an extra touch of warmth and hospitality, making the breakfast experience even more enjoyable.

Overall, my stay at this hotel was great. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat with beautiful surroundings and great hospitality from all the staff at the hotel.

Amazing resort! Located on a hill watching to thong Nai pan beautiful beach.
The hotel rooms are surrounded by beautiful trees.
The staff was super friendly, they upgraded our room to suite with amazing room which part of the room are carved in a natural stone it was really impressive.
We had gorgeous infinity pool in the room, as well as the main pool of the hotel very beautiful.The only downside of the hits is that you have to take took took every time, but it not that bad if you prepared for it, we never had to wait more than few minutes.

Love this place.
Most villas have private pools overlooking the beautiful island.
Beach bar is gorgeous. Main pool is lovely. Breakfast (included for all) is generous and in the Pan Sea restaurant with a fabulous view.
We are here on a package that includes additional meals, drink, massage etc.
Plenty of resorts, bars, restaurants, loungers etc along the beach either side of the resort.
Very hilly, and plenty of golf carts if you want them.
Speed boat transfer is great. Car collects from airport and boat delivers to resort. Dep 10&2 from resort, and 11&3 from koh samui. Seems to change a bit though.
In addition, there are general ferries departing from the other side of the island.

Never been to a hotel like this before, literally in the middle of the jungle, AMAZING. The hotel is stunning, you are collected by buggy as it is quite steep but how lovely to drive up to reception listening to all the birds singing away. We upgraded to a villa with a pool, amazing. The breakfast was so fantastic, so much to choose from and to be able to sit outside just looking at the Thai sea on a hillside in the jungle, things dreams are made of. Not good for wheelchair users, only downfall. Very very highly recommended

Firstly the staff were fantastic. Friendly and helpful, led by the lovely manager Thanvalai. The room itself was much better than the photos. Large and split level, with an awesome view. It was private, luxurious and peaceful. The Jacuzzis was fun. We went for our anniversary and had such a great time. Cocktails by the pool, and a fabulous meal in the evening of lobster and steak!! The resort is on a headland in the middle of the bay with all around stunning views. The buildings are tastefully integrated into nature, with well maintained plants and trees. Can't wait to come back!!

I really like this hotel!
The pool villa was amazing, we enjoyed the pool very much.
The location is wonderful right next to a small village, where you can find everything- restaurants, bars, laundry, massage..

I appreciated the fair prices of the hotel menu, we used the room service a lot and it was excellent.

The view from breakfast is absolutely stunning and the hotel generally is so quiet clam place to stay in.

I want to send a special thank you to the hotel staff and specially Golf, they were so kind and welcoming!
Thank you!

Our stay at Panviman was magnificent. We were there for 4 nights and from start to finish the entire staff made us feel welcome and taken care of. the breakfast was delicious and some elements like cheese type varied each day. the pools are gorgeous. so many little waterfalls connecting all of the tinier pools down the mountain. they couldn’t have gardened it as beautifully. the view from each restaurant was so beautiful and the service was excellent. that was infact what made our trip as spectacular as it was, was the service we received. nick in the restaurant works incredibly hard. he’s constantly checking up on you and attending to each need. mato at the front desk, greeted us at the start and each interaction left us happy and satisfied as he helped with every issue we had. aungko the bartender was attentive and adamant about making sure you have a good experience. and lastly golf in the restaurant was always kind and helpful each time he saw us. altogether they made us feel welcome and greeted us as though we were friends from the beginning. will definitely return.

Unfortunately we were unable to stay at the Panviman due to the passing of a family member. This review is to highlight the exceptional service we received from Panviman when going through the process of cancelling our booking. We were very pleased that the staff treated our request with empathy and compassion and put our needs first. They acted quickly so we could ensure we got home for the funeral.
We will definitely ensure we book the Panviman for our next trip to Thailand based upon the service we received. 5 stars from us, we are so grateful 🥹

An amazing resort to stay in. A large resort where you get ferried from one area to another on little golf carts. You generally only ever had to wait 5 minutes for one.

The dinner area is set right on the beach, and they have another bar that gives you a great view of the bay that it sits on.

Staff were lovely and always happy to help out. Rooms were amazing, very much what you'd imagine a paradise island would look like. The food and drink was great and not too expensive.

The one downside is that it is rather isolated where it sits. So if you fancy staying put and relaxing by the pool or beach, it's amazing. If you want to do a bit of exploring, there's a little village just outside the gate where friendly locals will offer taxi services for around 800-1000 Baht. For example, Bottle Beach cost us 900 baht to get to.

Overall, it was a lovely place to stay.

The most beautiful hotel in Koh Phangan. Pure luxury and an unforgettable stay. Can’t recommend enough. If possible, get the deluxe room as the view is next level.

GO TO KO PHANGAN!!
My partner & I have just had the most relaxing week at the Panviman Resort, 7 days of absolute bliss in a pool villa overlooking the sea. It was so beautiful and peaceful, just what we needed.
Our villa had a very large infinity pool & spa 6m x 3m.
We have traveled to many places throughout Asia and the Panviman is undoubtedly the most enjoyable, relaxing & friendly resort we've ever stayed at. All of the staff were amazing, we enjoyed many laughs & good times with them all🤗 Big thanks & love to Golf, Nick & Kai.
Dont worry about getting around the resort, there are buggys on call and they are very prompt.
There are many great eating spots in the village, only minutes from the resort.
This holiday goes to the top of our list of good times🥰🏖🍹
Thankyou to everyone at the Panviman

The best place I’ve ever stayed. My friend and I were treated like royalty. The staff are lovely and can’t do enough for you. The resort is on a mountain side and so they have golf carts to take you around which works really well (we never had to wait longer than a couple of minutes for one to pick us up from our room).

We stayed in a jacuzzi villa which was huge and had an amazing view. The pool area is really nice and well maintained with stunning views. The beach is also beautiful with crystal clear water and there are canoes and paddle boards you can use for free which was a nice touch.

The hotel is situated next to a small village that has various bars and restaurants. To get anywhere else you’d need some form of transport, either a moped or a taxi, the hotel also offers a shuttle bus service to the main pier. This was perfect for us as we wanted somewhere quiet to relax but still be able to access the more lively parts.

Overall we just loved loved our time here and we were really sad to leave. Highly recommend the Panviman!

Couldn't have been a better stay. Staff were fantastic and incredibly helpful. The resort facilities and rooms sublime. Very well priced. We were even given a complimentary room upgrade which was icing on the cake. There's a great street food selection right outside the resort which had great food for exceptionally low prices. Highly recommend :)

My wife and I went to Panviman for a week in 2023. We really enjoyed our time at the resort. The Pool Villa Grande was stunning, with views of the bay and a wonderful private pool. The room was spacious and tasteful. The dining at both restaurants was great and all meals are well prepared. We also enjoyed the breakfast buffets very much. A little Thai will go a long way if you happen to pick some up, but overall the language barrier will not be an issue with most staff (for English speakers). On the topic of the staff, we found everyone we met warm and friendly and tried hard to make us happy at all times. For anyone looking for a getaway it's a really amazing option that you can't go wrong with.

The rooms are situated around a steep hill, so it's a bit of a workout walking from the room to wherever you want to go, fortunately they provide a free taxi service! The hotel is located near a beach and has a really nice view. The service is immaculate, they provide you with everything you want, the restaurants serve really good food and provide surprises with the dishes. The spa is amazing with different choices of scrubs and therapies. The "downside" of this hotel is that is on the other side of the island, so it's quiet and relaxing but it's costly to go back to Thong Sala (where most of the restaurants and things happen). But still it's a fantastic choice if you want to relax and enjoy life!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Panviman Resort on my honeymoon, and it was a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the beauty of the hotel and its well-kept grounds. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after throughout our stay.

The only negative point was that the rooms were a bit dated, but this didn't really impact our overall enjoyment of the resort. The facilities were top-notch, with a range of activities and amenities to keep us entertained. We particularly enjoyed the pool, which was beautifully maintained and offered stunning views of the surrounding area.

Overall, we had an absolutely fantastic time at Panviman Resort and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing getaway. The staff were truly the highlight of our stay, and we can't thank them enough for all of their hard work and dedication. We can't wait to visit again in the future!

This was what we were looking for as the tropical getaway in Thailand. Our room was spacious and clean with a comfort bed. Breakfast with a Very good eggstation and enough choice. The beach bar in the evening with live music was sometimes a bit tacky. The only thing disappointing was the tuna sandwich in the pool side bar. Would come again if I’m ever in the neighbourhood.

We had the most wonderful stay at the Panviman Resort! Every single member of the staff treated us like royalty and was so kind and accommodating. This is the best service I have ever received, especially big thanks to the ladies from reception: Mild and Tata and all the tuck til drivers; Thank you so much! I fully believe that anytime I find myself in Thailand, the Panviman resort will be my home. Also, our villa with Jacuzzi was so breathtaking. The balcony was a great place to hang out day and night, and it was also amazing to open all of the sliding glass window doors and have panoramic views of the sea while feeling the beautiful nature come through. I also loved the beach, and everyone there was so nice and accommodating. We are already dreaming of and beginning to plan our next stay. Thank you all for everything!!

We had a lovely 5 nights at Paviman. The location is perfect with a nice local village and beach. The beach just to the south was also lovely and chill and easily walkable if you have good mobility. Ours was a pretty standard room but felt well equipped with a massive bed ! Which my wife seemed to like to keep away from me and a nice sea and pool view. Breakfast was good with excellent views on the outside seating. Transfers were also perfectly timed and now feel like a luxury having travelled on to koh Tao on standard ferries.

Only minor negative was the spa seemed very expensive compared to other hotel spas which was a shame as the location was tranquil and we would have likely used daily if a little cheaper.

Either way we came away wishing we had stayed a few more days so thumbs up from us.

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for 12 days. The rooms are very nice, the view is breathtaking, the food delicious and the staff very kind. In particular, I noticed Mr. Bas, the tuk-tuk driver with his extremly friendly manner, as well as the waiter, Mr. Aung. Therefore, I can absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone!
