Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms. Air conditioning is fitted in several of them, and the bungalow and the two rooms with garden or city views come with open-air bath privileges.

Lamai is a long sandy bay on Koh Samui, where beach bars, street food stalls and the night market gather close to the sand. Marina Beach Resort is in the Lamai area, a lively part of the island for guests who want the beach and the evening atmosphere close at hand.

Hin Ta and Hin Yai, the rock formations known as Grandma and Grandpa Rocks, are 1.2 km away on the coast, and the Lamai Night Market is 900 m from the resort. Na Muang Waterfall, 6 km away, makes a good trip for an afternoon, and Wat Lamai, a Buddhist temple, is close by. The bay also has a diving centre and a watersports operator nearby, so the sea is easy to reach from the resort. Marina Beach Resort has its own private beach, so the sand and the water are part of the stay itself.

A day out can start with the rock formations and the beach, then continue to the waterfall before returning to the resort in the evening. The Big Buddha, one of Koh Samui's best-known landmarks, is 12.2 km away, and Samui Airport is 9.8 km from the property, so the main sights and the airport are both within the island's reach.
