Hotels in Ao Noi Nha, Koh Samet

I stayed at a quiet mini resort, which was great for peace and quiet. The best part was the chocolate cabin in the woods behind it. The infinity pool was mostly quiet and the rooms were cleaned well, which was important to me as someone with OCD. Despite being on the ground level with a sea view, I didn't encounter any bugs or ants inside. The staff was decent, but not overly welcoming or friendly. Jik, who worked at the reception, was helpful and booked reservations for us at restaurants and other Samed group resorts. However, the resort was a bit far (15-minute drive) from everything else, making it quite a ride by motorbike or taxi. The distance felt longer when traveling around the island. My least favourite thing was the breakfast restaurant. The Japanese style seating, while great for lunches or dinners, became annoying after a day or two, especially during breakfast when I needed to get up several times and bruised myself getting up. The restaurant also had an ant problem, which made me feel very uneasy and ruined my enjoyment of breakfast. I wished we hadn't included breakfast at the hotel. I felt that the same hygiene methods used for the rooms should be applied to the restaurant to prevent the ant issue.

Nice little place right on the beach. Perfect for sunrise and clear water for swimming. It's the quiet end of the island but still plenty of places to eat and drink. Rooms are simple but comfortable. Good shower. Nice pool. Good breakfast. Attentive staff.

The hotel is located in a remote area, but the scenery is not bad. The room is clean, but there are many ants and geckos. The shower is small and the water temperature is not good. I stayed in the top room, and the recliner was very old and had a sense of age. The chairs in the rooms below have been replaced, except for the last row, which is very tiring to climb the stairs, and has better privacy. After all, it is on the island, so the requirements cannot be too high. Breakfast is from 7:30 to 9:30. There are not many varieties. There are fewer Chinese people, but more foreigners. You must borrow a motorcycle here, otherwise it is very inconvenient.

The location is great, right next to the pier, literally 3 minutes walk. A bit far from the action, but we took a bike and had no problems with it. But we slept in silence. The hotel is located on the rocks right on the shore, houses for 2 owners with one porch. Panoramic doors, the view from the room is awesome. For this price, it's a more than decent option. We would come back here again.

The room has a nice view but is not soundproof. The bed is quite hard. The WiFi in the room by the sea is not accessible. It is right on the beach. I want to sleep quietly but the room next door is noisy. I can hear everything. The kayak for guests staying is only for those who are directly with the hotel. If you book through an agent, you have to pay extra. There is no discount for guests staying.

Great location on Vongduan beach. Very spacious , clean bungalows; nice staff; amenitiesare basic but in line with other similar hotels in koh Samet. A reading light would be nice. They explain at check in that room cleaning has to be requested by hanging the sign, you might have to draw the cleaners attention then they will clean the room. Breakfast is ok, mostly Thai options ; a couple of sweets and more choice of fruit would be nice. The only real minus is the rock hard bed, same as sleeping on the floor. They should not allow boats to land at the beach among swimmers, there is a jetty few meters away... better arrange a porter service for those who don't want to carry their bags.

Newly renovated rooms; comfortable & cleaned. Beautiful private peaceful beach. All the hotel staff that we had contacted did excellent jobs. Enjoyed live music & a fire show in the evening. We gave 200 THB to the fire show men. Frankly speaking, their fire show skills are much better than Hawaii. (Except, no hip dance) It would be nice if the other hotel guests would have given them some tips, too. Everything was good, except the music at the restaurant by the beach was a bit too loud. I will return to stay at this hotel again if I go to Samed next time.

First about the location: the beach is excellent. White fine sand, gentle entry into the water, no jet skis, boats, etc., the beach is cleaned. On the beach there is only this hotel and several restaurants and bars. One of the bars is run by an Italian who enjoys chatting with visitors, I recommend stopping by. You can easily go to the neighboring, larger beach, which seemed worse in quality: stronger waves, more coral debris. The location is a definite plus. The hotel restaurant also deserves a very high rating. Really tasty, excellent presentation of dishes, reasonable prices. The only negative is the staff who do not speak (except Thai, and even then, I'm not sure they understood Thai). At the slightest thing - they call the bartender for help and because of this there are difficulties with communication when ordering. About the room: the curtains do not completely close, you can see in the photo. Completely broken plumbing in the shower (guys, what are you doing, are you serious?), clogged sink by the time we checked in. Thresholds in the house that you trip over at night. No insect repellent (!) - buy your own or spray it on the bar counter (are you serious, in the jungle not to have cheap mosquito repellent in your room?). My seaview villa was the last one and I do not recommend it - there is a garbage dump behind it and next to it a Thai house where chickens and roosters live, starting to scream at 4 am right next to you. It is better to take not the last house, but the previous one. The glass on the veranda and in the house itself, it seems, has never been washed or has stopped doing it a long time ago. You sit and look at the sea, and the level of the dirty glass fence is higher than the chair. This is a definite minus, they do not clean at all, although they gladly took the tips. Also, on the territory of the hotel there is a smell of either sewage or stagnant water. The wireless Wi-Fi network is slow. I do not want the review to sound like a devastating one. Despite all the shortcomings, I liked it here, I just expected a higher level of service from a pretty good resort. I hope the guys will improve the quality.

If little things don't spoil your mood, pass by)) I'm writing this review for people like me. The air conditioner blows on the bed In the morning you wake up from the sound of someone sweeping under the window, it's very audible. And since this is a house, you can't open the curtain because the sweeper will see you. The smell of rotten water and it doesn't drain well after a shower. If you're alone, it's okay, but if there are two of you, I think it's unpleasant. My bike was constantly being moved, pushed close to the house. No one explained or asked me to place it in a specific way. But every day it stood differently. They don't speak English WiFi doesn't work properly, we connected it to different networks twice, it was useless. There are sewer butterflies in the bathroom. Yes, yes, I didn't know what that was. Otherwise, everything is fine, the owners are a family. They don't care about you at all, they sent me to the most expensive service on the island to get my bike. cleaning on request. Bed linen is clean. There is a refrigerator in the room

The hotel is located a bit far from the business service area, but the beach area near the hotel feels a bit serene because there are not many people staying and it is away from the business area. The facilities in the hotel are average. There is only one stool in the room. You can only sit on the bed when you turn the room. There is no space between the washroom and the shower room. There is only a towel rack inside and no place to hang a change of clothes.
