Hotels near Ao Phrao in Koh Samet

A wonderful Place to stay . This Resort is awesome . Eines der besten kleinen Resorts die wir je hatten . Personal ist außergewöhnlich Freundlich und versuchen jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen . Die Anlage ist super schön und liebevoll gepflegt . Kleiner , aber wirklich nur kleiner Nachteil ist die äußere Umgebung . Vorm Resort ist eine Baustelle die aber zu keiner Zeit störend war . Zimmer sind top modern und super sauber . Zum Haupt Strand sind es etwa 1 Minute zu Fuß . Zudem hat das Resort noch einen kleinen Privat Strand . Zwar etwas steinig aber dennoch sehr schön . Wir würden jeder Zeit nochmal buchen . Einfach klasse !

First, I chose Koh Samet because I asked a local Thailand friend which island has not been overdeveloped since my early days coming to Thailand in the 1990s. His response was ”head to Koh Samet”. I looked for a value hotel on one of the more southern, less developed beaches which led me to Wong Duean Bay and the Vongdeuan Resort. The pool was a big draw. With the low tide being pretty extreme, it is really nice to have the salt water pool to cool off in and swim laps. The food seemed pretty authentic to me. With mainly Thai visitors coming in on the weekends it figures the food would be good at the Vongdeuan Resort. :) The staff were wonderful and always so fun to share a story or two with. The beach area all along the bay was extremely clean with no plastic on the beach or garbage in the water. This is a big plus when going to the shore in SE Asian countries. There are several beach restaurants but none of them had loud music, at least during the weekdays when I was there. It is definitely a sleepy and peaceful place to enjoy the water at high tide as well as the white sand beach for walks.

We stayed for 4 nights here. The location was pretty good and we were right on a beach, which made it nice for swimming. They do have a great pool too. It wasn't overly busy when we were there. But there were large groups coming and going, but they weren't that noisy. The breakfast is basic, but you do get to sit out and have a fantastic view looking out over the bay. The only problem I really had with our stay was the tap water, there was a slight discoloration. I didn't drink from the tap anyways and also had bottled water. It is relatively private too. Our room was spacious enough and we could sit outside on the balcony. For me it was relaxing and in a good location. The staff were very friendly and happy to help.

First if all, The WiFi did not work after several tries from us ,we ended up using our mobile data which is just a disappointment. No proper signage going to the hotel as they altered the entrances and exits due to covid. But please a proper assistance to your guests will go along way in terms of customer service. We had to walk and keep on asking where the hotel is. Thirdly, poor housekeeping and restaurant service. Both departments are unorganized.whenever you order something,it takes a long time for the food or drinks to be served. Next, they always made up our room last and super late till 5.30pm. Even when we requested as early as 9.30 am to please clean the room, they just give us excuses. Yes,your hotel is very under staffed but please come up with a better strategy in cleaning rooms especially we are your first timers guests,and we ended to just tidying our room during or stay. Not recommended for foreigners, only 3 people can speak or greet you in English, the rest does not even smile to the guests. Won't be recommending this hotel even if the location is lovely.

Stayed at Avatara Resort Hotel from 8 to 10 December 2021. We booked a Triple Room, which was very spacious, clean and comfortable beds. Layout of the bathroom was awesome with full view of the jungle. Location is not bad just a walking distance to the Sai Kaew beach which was lively and vibrant at night, with many restaurants nearby. Unfortunately this multistory building has no lift or escalators and a long walk from the lobby and beach. Our room was on the 5th floor and climbing up those many stairs is a big problem especially for those with disabilities or older age. Path and corridors along the building are poorly lit. Breakfast by the beach is very popular with guests but service is poor. On our second day, my son found out that the fresh cold milk he had with cornflakes has gone bad. Brought to the attention of the staff who was quite reluctant and no apologies, Restaurant staff should have pay more attention to the quality of food served. Poor and unfriendly staff; no smile, no greetings and treated guests as if we are a liability to them. The staff was busy playing with their mobile phones and chatting with their colleagues rather than paying attention to the hotel guests. We need to approach them every time we needed to order and foods service are poor. Serviette and tissue paper are not provided with the food, have to asked for them.

Hello everyone During this time, the weather is very unstable. Sometimes it's hot, then it's raining. But travel lovers like us are not afraid. Suddenly I want to go to the beach, so we arrange a trip together in a very hot way. Looking for accommodation in many places but the rooms are all full Until the trip is ruined, so I try to fight and find another round, finally!!! I have a place to stay. @tongtaphaview samed resort Koh Samet, Rayong Province, near Bangkok. I will tell you from the way to get there. We drive to Rayong, Ban Phe Sub-district, from Bangkok-Rayong, about 3-4 hours. Leave a car at the pier for 60 ฿ per day. Go for a boat ride at Nuanthip Pier. Normal boat round trip 140/person (30-40 minutes). , Speed ​​Boat round-trip 300/person (10-20 minutes). Upon arrival, there will be an entrance fee of 40 ฿ per person for the national park (just started collecting during the COVID period) and a minibus ride to the accommodation for another 50 ฿ per person. Although there are tricycle drivers to help lift things We walked a little bit to the accommodation. Upon arriving at the accommodation, the staff brought the welcome drink to serve (I'm very impressed here. The service is very good) The atmosphere of the accommodation is very good. Next to the sea Resort activities Clap your hands, the signature fish of this place. Just clap your hands, the fish come to see us in groups Surfboards, canoes, floating nets, beanbags, beach hammocks, sand scoops, badminton, balls, frisbee, board games, fishing rods / squid fishing, food available. Free breakfast every meal The resort has food for sale, priced at 80 - 500 (very delicious, many menus). As for the accommodation price, the room that Ping stays at is 3000/night including breakfast. n (Secretly regretting not booking the sea view room in time because the room is full) The service staff is very good, 10/10 overall is 10/10.

Friendly, cute, quiet, clean, suitable for children, family and friends. Good variety of breakfast, delicious in the evening. Sit and enjoy the sea breeze Good service staff Willing to provide information Pool area room, beautiful atmosphere The pool is a bit small, the area is shady, beautiful. Can find a photo corner, quiet, not busy, modern rooms, clean but a little small, reasonable price, room styles are available.

We booked for 3 nights and ended up staying 5. We had a Deluxe Sea View corner room on the 4th floor which was lovely. Staff are friendly, breakfast is a little limited but good. Pool and gardens are great. Just wish there was somewhere on site to get some drink and snacks during the day. There were a couple of bars which were in need of repair which they seemed to be working on so maybe they will re open these at some stage. There are however several beach bars along the beach which we enjoyed. This is always a complaint of mine in Thailand, particularly along this coastline. CLEAN YOUR BEACH ! The view is lovely, but spoiled by the amount of garbage washed up on the shore. Its horrible. I know you cannot control what washes up but 100% you can control what you do with it. The beach is your biggest asset, that's why we go and not some inland resort. If you just clean it once a day it will make a massive difference and hopefully the resort next door follows your lead and in time the whole beach is as it should be. You have a lovely resort but spoil it by not taking care of the one thing we go for, THE BEACH

Sai Kaew Hotel has been staying for many times. Every time I come, I have never closed the palace. Whether it's service, the staff are polite and well-mannered. The room is spacious, clean, and the facilities in the room are also provided. Unfortunately, it's convenient to travel anywhere, whether going to 7/11 or going to a restaurant, very convenient, especially the hotel on the beach, so walking down from the room and reaching the beach front this time, bring the kids, the kids like it very much. Samet will stay at this hotel again. room price as well

Very close to the seaside, the location of the room is relatively secluded, the room is comfortable~ The toilet is very high, people who are not tall may not be able to step on the floor 😂 There are attached towels, bath products, and a hair dryer. Water can be filled at the check in place.
