Solo trip to the garden after living in Samui for 3 months. I have to admit that with 80 baht entrance fee I'd have hoped for a better kept garden. There are buildings full of litter and doors rotting away to nothing. All the paths are completely covered in slime and a lot of the statues are too. Some of the entrance fee should be used to keep the garden well maintained and fix the broken statues and buildings. Some information about the statues would be good too. Pretty overrated in my opinion and mosquito haven!

It is one of the most important landmarks of Koh Samui Island. People visiting Koh Samui Island come to the garden as a part of their day trip or it is included in their tour package. In the garden, you can find numerous figurines in different poses – sitting down, standing, waving, dancing, and playing musical instruments. Besides the statues of gods and goddesses, you can also see animal sculptures in the park such as a bird pulling out a worm from the pond. Note: 1- that you should wear comfortable clothes and athletic shoes and be in good shape because you will need to walk great distances. 2-I advise you to book this trip with a group because most of the drivers are private, taking tourists and asking for large amounts of money. The fee fee of 80 Baht per person.

Visited on our own. So beautiful to see and experience. Playful garden, everywhere you look you see something different. Turtle sculpture along the water, dancing sculptures, mushroom like umbrella all made of stone or concrete. Not sure how long it too or what his vision was. But a must see. Took a scooter up the mountain. Bit steep at times but really doable.

That was a really interesting trip, all the statues, little houses, the small waterfall and the dzungel, it made me feel like i have travelled back in time. It was beautiful and our guide told us very interesting stories of the history of this garden. Felt like im in a adventure movie where im discovering a lost city. This place felt very mystical to me!

We got there by scooter but noticed that many were reaching this spot by pickup truck (marketed as ‘safari’). 80 BHT entrance fee per adult, kids get in free. Amazing artsy place. Take mosquito repellant. On our way back, The front breaks got too hot and stopped working! We had no water to cool off the disk break, so we waited for 10 minutes. Be extra careful with this potential issue. Must visit though.

Hard drive up some steep roads but easy to find and GPS is accurate. I'm sure farrang are charged more than Thai but the lady selling tickets would not tell us prices individually. A lovely idea built by 1 man to create a peaceful rest area. Stone statues and Buddha's line a small streamed Waterfall. Great place to get family photo's. 30 minutes was enough to see all and enjoy the calm.

It is not an easy ride to approach the place but truly worth it. This is the rainy season so the whole place looks like that a former city would sink under a huge amount of water. Of course be careful as moss is everywhere so the rocks are really slippery and use a good mosquito spray before entering ;)

Such a unique thing to visit! A must for anyone who loves exploring and seeing unusual/cultural things. The secret Buddha garden was quiet magical as I was the only person there and had the whole place to myself. It would have been nice to know abit more about it and some history and meanings of the statues, however I enjoyed the mystery around it still. The journey up there is not impossible on a scooter like lots of people state, the road itself is in good condition you just need to be a confident driver as it is steep in some places and not a quick drive up either, took about 15 minutes to get up from the main road still. The cost to visit is 80tbh, there are toilets and refreshments available

Its drive up into the mountains to the gardens so only accessible by car/scooter unless you are super hikers! We went mid afternoon and it was sooo busy so hard to get good photos and just take time to chill. The statues are great but it wasnt as grand as i imagined. I wouldnt say that its a MUST see but if you have time & want to see every tourist attraction then sure, pay a visit. Its 80baht entry fee & there is a cafe at the beginning.

A truely magical experience. Take a trip to another time and another world - beautiful scenery and well maintained grounds, statues & old school village/buildings. We drove a small car up the hillside - the roads are step and arrow in sections and can be a difficult/ sketchy drive - would recommend going with a tour or driver.
