Hi Bros,
Loknar and I are travelling to LOS again in June and were hoping that you all could help us find a decent guest friendly beach bungalow on Chaweng. Being on the beach would be killer. You guys have been right on the money in the past and we certainly appreciate any tips you can give us. 
Chaweng Resort looked interesting as well as a couple of others but not certain about joiners. Let me know if you guys get a chance, cheers.

I liked Poppies when I was there many years ago. Really nice bungalows, bar right smack on the beach, bit pricey then..abt 2600B.

Not sure about the Chaweng Resort, but I've stayed at Chaweng Gardens the last three years in July. Not luxurious, but not bad for 1,000 baht or less. Great location-on the beach and the driveway is directly across from Soi Green Mango and bars. About girl-friendliness: many times I've come back late at night with a TG and the "security" guard in the booth has barely managed to look up.
Have fun.

Is this the same Poppies Samui Resort Hotel??
If so, the price are a little higher then what you paid. Planetholiday has them listed at: staring US$167 to US$218.
If you thought 2600 baht was pricy, then you're gonna sh_t when you see the new prices!! ha ha ha!!
Assuming we are talkin' about the same place.
Hotel Address: P.O. Box 1, Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui 84320, Thailand
Location: Samui - Chaweng

Kinda reminder me of when I stayed at the Tongsai Bay Cottages. Company picked up the bill so I did not sweat it. Now I realize that my room was hella' expensive! Should've enjoyed it when I was there!! ha ha ha!!

I stayed at First Bungalow Beach Resort on Chaweng. It's girl friendly, they have beach bungalows (but I got stuck with the pool view). They had an excellent pool, very good breakfast buffet, but I was somewhat disappointed with the quality of the housing, not nearly as new and sparkling as presented on the web. In fact, I believe it is one of the older properties on the beach, and the location is quite far from Soi Green Mango. It seemed to me there should be better value options for about 1600, so I don't think I can recommend it.

Thanks guys your help is really appreciated. We will post our FRs after we've come back.
By the way when we were on Phuket we found that it was a flip of the coin as with guest friendly or not. Some places were adamant and some were totally cool.
The place we ended up staying was the Tropica Bungalows on Patong and they were great. The girls at the desk told us that the owner was German with a Thai wife and that at one point they had begun charging a joiner (a year before we got there) but their business basically fell through the floor as a result and they stopped. Anyway Phuket was great and now we're looking forward to BKK and Koh Samui. 
Again you know everyone on this forum has been hands down great. Eveything we were told was useful and helpful. If there's any other advice or anything you want to tell us about the scene on Koh Samui please feel freee to let us know your opnion is truly valued.
Take care bros!

Stayed at Chaweng Resort for a week in April and totally guest friendly. South end of the beach but easy and cheap to get uptown. The place was clean and most have been renovated. Take a walk through different ones before you pick. There is also a safe in every room. You can get beachfront bungalows.
Enjoy Samui.

JHJ,
Poppies Bt2600/night - more like 7 years ago. Rates now are more like Bt7000/night up which is crazy. When Poppies first opened it charged about Bt1800/night.
http://www.gothailand.com/hotels/samui/frameme.php?page=/poppies-samui/
I recommend top end Muang Kulaypan. Boutique hotel, GF but you have to sign her in (no charge).
Mid end - The Island has bungalows from Bt800/night. They have 3 or 4 bungalows with TV and the works located right on the beach 10m from the water. Also has a great bar.
