We loved to train here. The athmosphere is so welcoming, no matter if you are beginner or advanced, no matter if you are an adult or a child. The trainers are very kind, open hearted and professional and they design every training with a systematic approach and combination out of endurance, strength, technique, sparring, stretching. We enjoyed each day and will definitly come back.

🥊 Training at Lamai Muay Thai in Koh Samui was a powerful experience.Real work, real discipline, and real Muay Thai spirit.The trainers are tough, knowledgeable, and fully committed to pushing you beyond your limits.Every session was intense, challenging, and absolutely worth it.I left stronger, more focused, and with even more respect for this sport.Thank you for everything — I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience real Muay Thai in Thailand! 🙏Lucas Caius - Timisoara-Romania 🇹🇩

The best people you’ll ever meet. Seriously, the vibe is amazing — super friendly, welcoming, and full of positive energy. You’re guaranteed to have a great time while actually learning something, thanks to the experienced and dedicated coaches.

Absolutely loved training here! We did 3 group classes and 4 private sessions, and I have to say the private sessions were my favorite. The group classes can get quite busy, but there are so many coaches that you still get plenty of attention. They actively watch you and correct your technique, and you’re definitely guaranteed a great workout.The real highlight for me was the PTs and all the coaches. You honestly can’t go wrong with any of them, they’re all incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and super motivating.I set myself a goal to try a private session with every coach, but unfortunately got injured halfway through and couldn’t complete it. I trained with Nut, Lit, Joe, and Dome, and they were all amazing. Each of them taught me something different, which is exactly what I was hoping for by trying different coaches and I enjoyed every session.100% recommend this gym, whether you’re a complete beginner or more advanced!

Group sessions are quite crowded. 30+ people. Still, >7 coaches. You will get useful Feedback. However, it’s not differentiated in skill Levels and not checked wether a beginner sparrs with a pro. Would not recommend for Complete beginners

I went to 4 different Muay Thai gyms during my trip and this was by so far the best one, so much technical knowledge and technique was learned in every session. Even just the booking set up for private sessions and the shop. Seriously by far the best training I did in my time in Thailand

I’ve trained at a lot of gyms in Thailand but this would have to be one of the best experiences.The front desk staff and coaches are all super welcoming and the class I did was structured and organised. Ideal for beginners, I do wish there was a group class for slightly higher levels too. You can tell the coaches are passionate and genuinely are there to help you.Sessions were easy to book and pay for through the app and was ideal having the option to not pay cash.I did a PT with Kru Ching and he was just wonderful. So technical, kind and I walked away feeling more skilled and learned some new techniques. All the coaches were super friendly and caring.Facility is really clean and well equipped. Will definitely be back if I’m in Koh Samui again 😊

The atmosphere is welcoming, supportive and full of positive energy.I learned so much in a short time and felt challenged in the best way. You can really feel their passion for Muay Thai. I would 100% recommend this gym to anyone visiting Koh Samui, whether you’re a beginner or experienced fighter.Thank you for such a great experience! I will definitely come back ❤️

What truly defines this gym is the way the coaches position and interact with one another — almost architectural in their presence — while keeping a sharp, experienced eye on each trainee.It feels like a living organism — every coach so different, yet all sharing the same soul and identity. An organism driven by drilled discipline, yet grounded in joyful play.Together, they create a truly holistic dynamic. What one sees, another hears — perception flowing seamlessly from eye to ear and vice versa. Through this constant exchange, the gym responds intelligently and efficiently to the needs of every fighter.This is more than just a gym — it’s a system that works.Thank you for this wonderful experience, Lamai. My heart is full.

I stayed for a month at Lamai Muaythai in October last year and it was an amazing experience. All staff and trainers were friendly and professional. Training everyday certainly upped my Muay Thai skills. The location and accommodation also made experiencing the island and culture easy and enjoyable. I will definitely be coming back to train again.

Cudowne miejsce na rozpoczęcie swojej przygody z Muay Thai. Już od pierwszego dnia czuć świetną atmosferę — począwszy od osób na recepcji, które zawsze witają Cię z uśmiechem i chętnie pomagają w każdej sprawie, aż po najważniejszą osobę, czyli trenera.Moim trenerem był Mikael — cudowny człowiek z wielkim sercem do sportu i ogromną pasją do przekazywania wiedzy. Treningi prowadzone były z zaangażowaniem, starannością i indywidualnie dopasowane do osoby, która jeszcze nic nie umie. Serdecznie polecam każdemu to miejsce 🙂

The gym is great, full of real professionals, and a lot of very good fighters train here and compete in different promotions around Koh Samui. You can feel the vibe from the moment you walk in.If you really want to improve your Muay Thai, train with Kru AE. I have over 20 years of sports experience and he’s honestly the best trainer I’ve ever had. He always focused on my weak points instead of my strong ones, and that made a huge difference.Amazing technique, great attitude, and a real pleasure to train with. Ask for Kru AE at the reception, whatever your level.

I booked a 2 week package, stayed in their new accommodation with a mix of group and 1 to 1 sessions, and I can’t speak highly enough of the entire experience. Everyone is great, trainers know their stuff, room was lovely with an AMAZING view off the balcony, and all the other staff are super friendly and helpful. There’s also a very good cafe/restaurant over the road, and a professional massage place next door…I hardly needed to move all trip!If you want an authentic, challenging and high quality experience…this is the place to be!

Gutes Muay Thai Gym, was 2 stündige Classes anbietet. Dadurch bleibt viel Zeit um in Technik-Drills zu investieren, sich von den zahlreichen Trainern auf der Matte korrigieren zu lassen und lockeres Sparring Runden zu absolvieren. Am Ende werden für ein paar weitere Runden Pratzen gehalten und wertvolle Tipps zur Ausführung geben, bzw. Schwachstellen aufgedeckt. Stupide an den Sandsack wird hier niemand abgestellt!

Referred to by my young son’s Muay Thai trainer from Australia . We were fortunate to have Jack train him. Jack was extremely courteous and helpful and took a wonderfully patient approach to my 10y old son while remaining strict. He personally took his time and dropped us off to our accommodation after a fight night which was well beyond any expectation. The gym itself had the most wonderful atmosphere and everyone was happy and approachable. A very welcoming place. Everyone that I spoke too could not say enough about the place including the fact that they won’t sugarcoat your weaknesses. These were from active fighters. This very positive experience has really cemented the love of MT for my young son. Very grateful and can’t wait to be back.

This is a great and very professional place. You download the app, you book a class, you pay online. Easy. If it’s a private class, you get the trainer assigned and can see a photo in the app so you don’t miss.If you’re a noob or just semi skilled and you just wanna bang pads, this might be the wrong place for you. Be prepared to slow down and start with the basics. The trainers are highly professional and might show you what you’re lacking and work on the basics. For some it might feel like a setback, but zooming in, this is highly valuable work.I think the more time you have and the more often you come, the better you will feel at the end.I can’t say anything about the group classes. Hopefully next time I will have time to attend.Thanks Kru Vorn for the great sessions. Will be back.
