It is the client's hotel; our role is the building work. We cleared the land in July 2025, then dug and poured the foundations. Through the autumn we built the concrete frame floor by floor, and in November 2025 we began the inner and outer walls. By April 2026 the facade was taking shape outside and tiles were going in inside. In June 2026 we reported the hotel as nearing completion. We have shared each stage on our Instagram, from the cleared plot to the first interior fit-out. Chaweng is one of the nine areas of Koh Samui where we have built. This project shows the kind of building work we take on for clients, alongside South Beach Inn, the hotel we run ourselves in Thong Krut. ## Key facts - **Type:** Hotel - **Rooms:** 14 - **Our role:** Builder in charge, for a client - **Work started:** July 2025 - **Stage:** Nearing completion (June 2026) ## How the build has run We started by clearing the plot and digging out the footings. Steel and concrete went in next, and the frame rose one floor at a time, with steel formwork set up for each new slab. Once the frame was up, we built the inner and outer walls, starting from the ground floor. Then came the facade outside and the tiling inside. ## Building a hotel for someone else A hotel has to work for guests and staff from the first night. We build with that in mind, because we also run a hotel of our own, South Beach Inn in Thong Krut. Our guide to [building for operations on Koh Samui](/articles/building-for-operations-koh-samui) explains what that means in practice. For the wider picture, read [commercial construction on Koh Samui](/articles/commercial-construction-koh-samui). If you are weighing up who should build your project, [how to choose a builder on Koh Samui](/articles/how-to-choose-a-builder-koh-samui) covers the questions to ask. ## Name check This is the hotel we are building in Chaweng. It is a separate project from the 14-unit apartment building in Bophut that also appears on our Instagram. ## Related - [South Beach Resort and Beach Club](/developments/south-beach-resort-and-beach-club), our own new resort build in Thong Krut - [South Beach Inn](/developments/south-beach-inn), the boutique hotel we run in Thong Krut - [A villa in Maenam](/developments/maenam-villa), another home we are building for a client ## Milestones ### Land cleared July 2025 We cleared the land for the client's 14-unit hotel, ready for building to begin. ### Footings dug August 2025 We dug out the footings for the foundations, ready for steel and concrete. ### Ground floor poured September 2025 The ground-floor concrete was poured and the first-floor columns began. ### Second floor October 2025 The frame moved up to the second floor. ### Third-floor slab November 2025 We set up steel formwork for the third-floor slab pour. ### Walls begun November 2025 We started the inner and outer walls from the ground floor. ### Facade and tiling April 2026 The facade was taking shape outside, and tiles were going in inside. ### Nearing completion June 2026 We reported the hotel as nearing completion. ![Aerial view of the hotel building and pool under construction, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-d34cecbe0f19b1a7397064786b28f2f6-m025-chaweng-hotel-gallery-1.webp?prefix=recovery%2Fb6c48333-0385-4fe0-8c49-8d2c224a319b&2026-10-10T06%3A08%3A45.552Z) ![Hotel facade with scaffolding, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-e32fa508d26cf4970216f563e9a3ab7b-m026-chaweng-hotel-gallery-2.webp?prefix=recovery%2F50cb6d2d-fece-4b65-bc42-cd2074d5c474&2026-10-10T06%3A09%3A03.142Z) ![Guest room with balcony doors and herringbone floor during fit-out, hotel project, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-d457bc8d3c3ed3f57a361b6cf8c758c8-m027-chaweng-hotel-gallery-3.webp?prefix=recovery%2F4f3745ef-aac0-4bf8-a088-b80a14e830a1&2026-10-10T06%3A09%3A20.042Z) ![Bathroom with walk-in shower at the hotel project, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-2e58a42eae60d1a4b174947b18bfe7a6-m028-chaweng-hotel-gallery-4.webp?prefix=recovery%2Fac6aeb78-3b0b-4fd6-b1e8-97eff611eb97&2026-10-10T06%3A09%3A36.799Z) ![Staircase with lit treads at the hotel project, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-cfc461fd0883d586a379e0246026e15d-m029-chaweng-hotel-gallery-5.webp?prefix=recovery%2Fd745a9ca-e043-40ce-9dc2-fbcd523c5d21&2026-10-10T06%3A09%3A54.520Z) ![Interior corridor at the hotel project, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-21a94d855e6a107d5f7fc0fda1b3f535-m030-chaweng-hotel-gallery-6.webp?prefix=recovery%2F866eec30-89cd-40ea-869e-b20b3723bf9a&2026-10-10T06%3A10%3A15.395Z) ![Bedroom with sliding balcony doors during fit-out, hotel project, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-7f1f5644b5104311c479c11f1e8aeb40-m031-chaweng-hotel-gallery-7.webp?prefix=recovery%2F1e43b1f8-552d-433e-b8a6-1497ab13a15d&2026-10-10T06%3A10%3A33.689Z) ![Rear corner view of the hotel and pool, Chaweng, Koh Samui](/api/media/file/mcp-5517f30da277c76293f9f46ad7f49994-m032-chaweng-hotel-gallery-8.webp?prefix=recovery%2Fa136b597-1776-4c30-a65e-b464a06050fd&2026-10-10T06%3A10%3A52.260Z) ## Our role We are building this 14-unit hotel in Chaweng for a client, from land clearing and foundations to the frame, walls, facade and tiling.
