Sai Kaew Beach Resort
9.2 (589 reviews)

Sai Kaew Beach Resort ★★★★

📍 8/1 Moo 4 Tumbol Phe, Phe Subdistrict, Koh Samet

"The room and service were decent. Perhaps with the rising prices in Thailand, it doesn't stand out as much anymore. To get to and from the hotel from the pier on the island, you'll need to take a songthaew. It's definitely more convenient to rent a motorbike if you're staying on the island, you can even ride to some small beaches in the south to relax. The hotel's restaurant has a nice ambiance and is good for a fancy meal. I'd recommend a street food stall I found – for about 200 baht per person, including four or five beers, the food was delicious. They even sent a small cake on my birthday night."

Additional perks at this resort include complimentary Wi-Fi, gift shops/newsstands, and wedding services.

Tonsak Resort
8.8 (277 reviews)

Tonsak Resort ★★★

📍 8 HF98+27C 54, Phe, Mueang Rayong District, Koh Samet

"Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The room, location, and staff were all good, and the service was friendly. However, for a family of three, we found Tonsak to be more expensive than some of the other lovely resorts nearby. The breakfast buffet was decent, but it wasn’t particularly memorable. The menu was the same every day, so if you’re staying for more than three days, you’ll likely run out of variety and options to enjoy."

Sawasdee Coco Resort
8.9 (258 reviews)

Sawasdee Coco Resort ★★

📍 95 3, Phe, Mueang Rayong District, Koh Samet

"Rooms really clean, mood and vibes are really nice. And the breakfast are really lovely."

Samed Cabana Resort

Samed Cabana Resort ★★★

📍 13/20 Moo 4 Wongduean Beach, Phe, Muang, Rayong, Phe Subdistrict, Koh Samet

Ao Phai ke neelay-firozi pani ke samnay waqay, yeh rustic-chic resort ghaas-phoos ki chhaton walay cabanas, sahil par khane ki sahoolat, aur nightlife tak aasaan rasai faraham karta hai.

Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa
9.2 (110 reviews)

Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa ★★★★

📍 40/11, Phe, Koh Samet

"How do I even begin! I went to Koh Samet with no expectations, but Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa is supposedly the second-best resort on the island. My overall impression wasn't great, mainly due to how the resort handled the broken air conditioning in our bungalow on the first day. We took a private car from downtown Bangkok to Ao Prao Pier (the hotel's private pier, which has its own lounge). Following the resort's email instructions, we boarded the 1:30 PM boat to the resort, which took about 15 minutes. The welcome drink upon arrival was quite good. The resort isn't very large, and there weren't many guests. When we discovered the AC was broken, we immediately contacted housekeeping. From housekeeping to engineering to the front desk, and then to Ctrip, we spent an hour in the sweltering room and outside before finally being moved to another room. It seemed like Ctrip had to intervene to resolve the issue before the front desk staff led us to our new room... The whole process was incredibly frustrating due to the heat! Later, the front desk found me on the beach and offered us an upgraded room. I went to see it but declined, as it was quite dark inside, and I prefer bright, airy rooms when I'm on vacation. She told me the room would be held for us if we changed our minds. Because I didn't move, the front desk came to find me again on the beach and offered a complimentary pizza as compensation. This proactive attitude was a definite plus. We stayed at Le Vimarn for three nights. The rooms are simple, Thai-style wooden bungalows. The 1.8-meter bed was just right for a family of three. The mini-bar is chargeable. If you're visiting Koh Samet, remember to bring a filtered shower head. Breakfast was pretty much the same every day, but it tasted good. We had dinner at Buzz once, and the food was good, but with a 10% service charge and 7% tax, it ended up being a bit expensive! The resort is a 15-minute drive from the main street (where the 7-Eleven is, 200 baht one-way). The front desk can arrange a taxi. Later, we rented a scooter, which we could park on a slope about a 2-minute walk from the front desk. I scraped my foot on a coral reef while swimming, and the front desk provided basic first aid. For the last two days, we stayed at Paradee Resort, which is a sister hotel to Le Vimarn, so they offered a free transfer. However, if you're traveling with kids, I'd highly recommend Paradee Resort – the environment, facilities, and staff are all much better."

Silversand Resort ★★★
"This Silver Sand Resort on Koh Samet was truly terrible. I booked a garden room but was assigned a second-floor room with no elevator. After lugging my suitcases upstairs, I realized the room layout was incorrect, so I had to move again. The new room had sand on the bed, which they claimed was falling from the ceiling. After it was cleaned, I went back to find sand again. The restaurant staff were all surly. They messed up my order because they weren't communicating and didn't even provide cutlery. When I asked for cutlery, they still didn't bring it. It was as if the boss wasn't paying them! Truly awful."

"Friendly staff.. Room is beautiful. This is our second visit to same hotel. Last visit we can use the swimming pool at Samet Pavillion (we were told that they have the same owner) But this visit staff inform us the pool there is close for renovation which we checked, was fully functional as usual.. Not recommend this hotel if you are looking for hotel with swimming pool and also who can not walk up the hill & stairs."

Kira Baya Koh Samed ★★★★★
"The pictures are really just for reference; make sure to check the room size carefully. This is the furthest hotel from the pier on Koh Samet, and the beach isn't great – lots of rocks, making it very inconvenient to get around. Plus, the hotel might be new, as many facilities are still incomplete, and food options are extremely limited. If you want to go out for food or shopping, the round-trip transportation costs are exorbitant. My biggest complaint is their bathroom. The drainage is terrible. I complained twice, and they couldn't fix it. After one person showers, the floor is completely flooded, and the water doesn't drain. You have to wait an hour before the next person can shower."

Tonsak Resort ★★★
"Easily the best looking resort on the stretch! With just that right blend of modern without feeling cold/contemporary. The restaurant serves really good food and the fire show was also the best one on the beach. Love the location too. Just steps away from the main drag where there are restaurants, massage places and convenience stores."

"We stayed for 3 days with family in a house, and overall everything was fine. The hotel is a bit worn out, but it's not a deal-breaker. They have good umbrellas and sun loungers on the beach, though it's unclear why the staff isn't very diligent about cleaning that area. The location is excellent, with everything within walking distance, including a 7/11 about a 7-minute walk away."

Samed Cabana Resort ★★★
"This hotel has very clear pros and cons. 1. We booked a beach house, so as soon as we opened the door, we had direct access to the beach and the sea, which was super convenient for playing. 2. Although it's not a rocky beach, it's a resort cluster, so the people there are mostly staying nearby. This means it's not too crowded, offering more privacy, and there are a lot of European and American tourists. 3. The downsides are quite critical though. Our room was close to the beach and made of wood, so there were a lot of ants. Even with bug spray, it was no use, and we got bitten many times. 4. The location is also a major drawback; it's really far from the pier, and we couldn't rent a motorbike, making it very inconvenient to go out. We had to rely on the shops along the beach for anything we wanted to buy. It's not ideal if you want to explore the island."

Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa ★★★★
"We chose a bungalow on the slope. It's a bit far, but if you're active, that's not a problem. The breakfasts are delicious and very beautiful. The hotel has a private pier. First, you need to drive there. Roundtrip transfer to the island is included. Very convenient. The staff is very attentive. We relaxed both body and soul. No fuss. Just what I needed."
