On the pricier side but worth it

Great Italian food using local products. It was incredibly delicious. We had the bruschetta, the pumpkin pasta and the parmigiana. The desserts are beautiful as well.

The view is worth the price you pay!! And you can also use the pool

The best and the only vegan fine dining in Samui

The food is exceptional, it's an asian-italian fusion, you don't want to miss it, it's an amazing experience!

Pros: Exceptional taste, Fresh and healthy ingredients , Excellent service

Cons: It's the most expensive vegan dinner in Samui, It's far away from the center

Just WOW

We had the best Christmas dinner here! It felt so special! This is my first Christmas away from my family in the UK and I had been feeling a bit homesick but our evening at Halapua had made my day! Everything was perfect! The decor, the staff, the food even down to the relaxing versions of class Christmas songs playing in the background! It had such a great atmosphere!
The food was absolutely delicious! They used ingredients that I wouldn't normally be my favourite at home like cauliflower and eggplant but made it so delicious that it's 100% converted to me! My favourite was definitely the vegan duck! I feel like I want a cooking class from the chef because everything that came out was incredible! They came out and explained each course which made it that bit more special. The staff were so friendly and accommodating you could tell it was a family run business with so much love and care put into every part of it!
I'm so gutted we found it after we booked our accommodation because I definitely would have stayed there too and will definitely be back In the future!
I've been away for 2 months in Thailand and this was the best food I've had on my trip by far!
Thank you for making my first Christmas away so special! We will definitely be back!

Pros: Homemade food , Staff, Decor

Outstanding location

A great place to have lunch and chill around the pool. We shared a few dishes and the Kapuhala Parmigiana, which consists of aubergines layered with tomato sauce and vegan cheese, was the highlight of all of them – everything was really good though.

Amazing place! 🤩

Our visit to Kapuhala Koh Samui Wellness Resort was magical. Tucked away in the hills of Chaweng Noi, this eco-conscious paradise offered us a slice of heaven.

Over lunch, we had the most delicious plant-based dishes that is presented beautifully 🌸 while with breathtaking views. Kapuhala is more than a resort it’s a journey toward well-being that left us feeling calm and connected to nature’s beauty. Don’t miss the chance to experience this enchanting retreat 🤩✨ They also have a super nice 25 meter pool and offer training sessions.

The owners has put in a lot of love for this special place, it’s a must visit ✨

Pros: Amazing food , Amazing views , Amazing pool

Amazing food and stunning views

We enjoyed a vegan dinner with exquisite food and stunning views. The staff is very friendly and the communication in advance was very good. We used the pick up service from the foot of the mountain as the drive can be challenging.
Highly recommended 👍🏻

Pros: exquisite vegan cuisine , very friendly staff , great view

delicious food & luxurious vibe

Worth it for the experience! Come early to swim and enjoy the view, stay for the yummy food. The meal was good but felt really basic / simple for the price. (Maybe the chef was off? Not sure.) Overall everything was tasty and we would come back for the experience but not for the fine dining experience we had expected.

The menu was fully Italian inspired when we came but we would have preferred some Thai influence too. Lovely and kind service. We felt well cared for and the experience being there felt luxurious. (The pool and setting is gorgeous.) Wine was okay at best — red wine was chilled. Coffee after the meal was tasty. If we’re back in the area we would consider returning but would hope for a more unique food experience.

Maybe a day off for the chef?

Reserved ahead for their 4(?) course set Sicilian menu. Our taxi had a hard time finding Halapua and it's quite a climb for a regular car. But the view of the Jungle and coast is worth it.
We were early and invited to take a dip in the beautiful infinity pool adjoining the different tables. We were given a selection of three dishes and choose focaccia with spreads and eggplant Parmigiano.
After the dip we sat and were offered wine. Ither options were local beer and fresh coconut
First course were slices of French bread with panelle - a Sicilian chickpeas patty. Tasty.
The mains arrived with my partners 4 squares of thick foccacia with decorative but simple toppings.
My eggplant Parmigiano was very good.
Dessert had a Christmas theme and consisted of a jelled berries on a nut based crust and a gingerman biscuit. I loved it. My partner wasn't keen.

All very nicely presented and served but heavy on bread and didn't match the hype and expectations
We stopped on the way home for coconut ice and three hours later had fantastic thai style vegan buffet for a pittance.

5* for ambience, service and presentation, taste
4* for originality
3* for food and cost

Come for the concept and ambience but if you're really hungry, on a budget or want local cuisine - there are much better options.

Different menu, still amazing!

Finally back in Samui and so happy to see that Halapua survived the pandemic. Truly fantastic vegan food that goes beyond the typical salads, wraps and bowls. The atmosphere, the view, location are all fantastic and definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a chill spot on the island.

Summer Nights Dream

This is the best vegan restaurant i have ever been at. The place is super amazing and decorated with good style. You also have an amazing view. But let’s talk about the food. There are not enough words to describe the deliciousness of every dish. The dishes are very sophisticated in taste and presentation. Everything they cook and serve comes from the own little farm of the resort or shipped from Italy like the saffron! We had an amazing experience. If you’re lucky, you’ll find Stefano -the owner of the restaurant, who will take time and explain every dish with a lot of passion. I can’t wait to come back !!!!!

Pros: fine dining , Many vegan options , Organic and tasty

Cons: Absolute no cons !
