We enjoyed a lovely dining experience at Kirati Beach resort this week. Dinner on the beach & a fire show. There was a musician singing & playing guitar, all the tables were occupied. It was good to see the restaurant so busy. The menu at Kirati is extensive. Pages & pages of dishes! We ordered corn cakes & I had the Tofu Pad Thai & my partner had prawns & asparagus in oyster sauce. The food was delicious, there was so much of it we couldn’t finish all the corn cakes. Service was good - it was a busy Thursday night & we were in no rush. The fire show on the beach was great - having lived on Samui for 6 months, this was the first one I’d seen. Well worth a look. All in all it was a lovely dining experience & it was so reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

The hotel is right on the beach and the sea comes right up against the restaurant however that will vary through the year. During our stay we had to walk one minute either side of the hotel through the ankle deep sea to get to the beautiful beaches. The sea went out around 4pm until 11pm for a nice wide beach which the hotel puts tables on for evening diners. The beach to the right has sun beds you can pay to use (300 baht)/day. There’s a restaurant also for food and drinks. The beach to the left is extensive with loads of options for food, drink and water activities including jet ski, banana boat or kayak hire. The hotel itself is nice and the staff are very helpful with any request, however it requires a general tidy up and update. Our family room was comfortable but could of done with new mattresses. The shower wasn’t the warmest at any time of the day it was used. The pool is 32ft (info from hotel staff) and unusable due to it not being maintained. With the sea being so calm on the north coast of Koh Samui it’s not so much of an issue, however if they advertise to having it as a facility it should be maintained for guests to use. There is an option to pay to use the pool in the hotel next door. Unsure of the cost. The restaurant overlooks the beach and sea on slightly uneven decking area which is absolutely fine for most but perhaps a little tricky for some. The food isn’t the cheapest however its portions are generous and good quality tasting food. There’s nightly entertainment which is popular with tourists in the area which means its often busy. Just note that the staff aren’t great at multi tasking so things can take time to arrive. There’s about a 400 meter walk back to the through road which has multiple restaurants, massage parlours, a pharmacy etc. cant remember the name but the restaurant we had diner at was around 800 baht for a family of three. This hotel is worth using as a base for a relaxing stay, great beach, calm sea and to tour the north of Koh Samui or the nearby islands (Koh Phangan etc).
