We stayed for 5 nights as a family of four, booking two rooms. The resort has a beautiful location, clean rooms, friendly staff and a good breakfast. The included resort transfer to and from Koh Samet is also a great service and makes the journey very convenient. Unfortunately, there were several issues that significantly affected our stay. The most disappointing was a strong sewage smell from the shower drain in one of our two rooms. We reported it, but the only solution offered was to cover the drain with a silicone lid. This reduced the smell but did not really solve the underlying problem. We eventually stopped complaining as we didn't want to spend our holiday dealing with maintenance issues. The pool also had several damaged tiles with sharp edges, and our son cut his toe on one on the first day. We also noticed poorly protected pool-light wiring secured partly with tape. The food was good, but not outstanding considering the relatively high prices. Overall, we felt the resort was expensive for the level of maintenance we experienced. great location and friendly staff, but too many maintenance issues for this price level.

Was the perfect spot to unwind after a crazy few days in Bangkok. Beautiful quiet beach. You don’t even have to leave the resort as there is a few restaurants on the strip to choose from. But if you did want to you can easily take a taxi into the township where there is so much to explore. Note Ao Prao also has its own private speed boat & pier to arrive on.

Full of charm in a peaceful tropical setting with such lovely warm staff. Room spacious and had all you need. Great views and fab Thai food. Would definitely return and recommend. I thought it was good value for money. One warning - be sure to go to the Ao Prao Pier (specifically for guests of Samed Resorts) when you are on your way, as if the taxi driver doesn’t know this, he might take you to the wrong (super busy) general pier where you get hustled into buying probably the wrong boat transfer!

Most Needed Peace & Quiet

It suited us the most because we’ve much needed peace & quite. The location is not for party animals, however it’s not far from all the action areas where you need a taxi & front desk would be happy to help. All staffs were willing to help. There were 2 individuals stood out the most were Izzy & note. The weather was so good without any rain. The resort is on the west side of the island and you can enjoy beautiful sunsets almost everyday. This is the driest part of Thailand even on raining season. We are already planning to go back next year.

The beach makes you feel like you're in paradise - very clean and beautiful. Our room was very spacious and clean. You can exchange money directly in the hotel which was very helpful. We really liked the breakfast buffet with the soup station. They varied the warm dishes also from day to day. What we missed was a station to fill up water during the day. You only receive 2 bottles of water per person per day which isn't enough on hot days. For the price we payed they could offer unlimited free water during the stay. We stayed in smaller not so exclusive hotels before and they all had unlimited water for the guests. The prices for food and drinks in the resort are too high so that we only ate there 2 from 6 nights. The other nights we had dinner outside and also snacks for lunch because it's nearly double the price then outside. Walking in the centre takes about 20 minutes.

Best breakfast. It had everything that u wanted and really good. Right placed on the beach in the end of the road so it is really comfortable and quiet. Sunset was the best and the beach was perfect. Didn’t leave this place during the whole stay because of how good it was. The personal was excellent as well, kind and meeting every demand. The room was so good as well, clean and well equipped. I had the room on the hillside over the bay. Was lovely to hear the break of the ocean to fall asleep to.

This was a spontaneous trip to Koh Samet and found this gem on Expedia. I originally booked for one night but upon arrival I realized this was paradise so decided to stay for 2 nights The manager Knot was extremely helpful, polite and professional. He took great care of us and the entire stay was enjoyable. From the breakfast to the clean rooms to the views and more, this place should be on your bucket list. I will be back. Thank you to the entire staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful
