"Samet Ville was a wonderful surprise for us as first-time visitors. It is a rustic setting with a private beach and a wonderfully warm bay inlet. The sand is soft and clean, and the villas range from rustic to modern. The staff was terrific, and the food options were plentiful. This setting is far down the island at Ao Wai, requiring a taxi or motorbikes to move about the island.
Be advised—a similarly named property, Samed Villa, is located on Ao TubTim, a more active part of the island with...
"My second time here and has everything, great staff, incredible location, nice food, rooms with sea views - best is there are no cars, no road just straight onto the beach - great few days for beach life!!"
"Excellent resort located right on the main beach, the place was super clean, the team were super friendly and very accomodating. We stayed in the cottages, the older part of the resort, close to the private beach, the rooms there were in good condition and very comfortable. "
"The noodle bar there is great, rooms are new and modern, nice beds and linen. We enjoyed there restaurant there overall, good menu and good food. Lots of ocean view seating options."
"This place is clean enough but not great. Functional basic rooms that look good in photos but scruffy irl. There's no fun or enjoyment here. It's just a basic room."

Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"What a wonderful hotel!
We have just returned from a 10 day stay at Le Vimarn and had the most fantastically chilled & relaxed time. The resort is located in a beautiful, quiet bay, and the facilities are excellent. The food at ‘O’, Breeze and Buzz was all of a high standard.
The staff at Le Vimarn are what make the biggest difference, though. They just couldn’t do enough for us, and everybody from the waiters & waitresses, beach, spa, and reception staff were just so helpful and courteous, it made our stay even more memorable.
We hope we are lucky enough to visit Le Vimarn again in the future!"
"Very comfortable bed and spacious rooms. The resort faces directly onto a private beach. Each evening there were also fire shows on the beach. There is music that plays until late at night at some nearby bars, but they didn’t bother us too much. There are a lot of mosquitoes though, so make sure to bring insect repellent"

"We had a great time at Paradee despite it was rainy all week during our time there. Staff really went out of their way to ensure a memorable stay for us. Exclusive, great value, and relaxing. "
"We came two years ago. The stay was good overall. The only critisism is that the standard of food in the restaurant was not on par with the last stay. The breakfast was very good."

"This was great option on Koh Samet. There are several room types. We stayed in a deluxe room. There were no chairs or bench in the room only a bed
There was benches outside on the patio bpir something in the room would be better. Breakfast was very good. Deinks
..well the forgot to put the rum in out pina coladas and the bar would not bill everything at the bar to our room. We asked reception and they said we could have . I would prefer a few more tables with regular chairs on the beach. Getting up and down from a bean bag on the beach if you are older. One party used all the chairs both evenings ao non was available for our party. I would stay there again bit make some adjustments"
