I’ve stayed several times... it’s an amazing location made even better by moving the swimming pool to the end of the peninsula for amazing views in every direction. Repainting the bungalows has halved. Breakfast isn’t great, but an improvement from last year. This is a special place... in some ways a bit rustic, but really... the pool is in a privileged location. You are between 2 beaches. Restaurant location great.... looking back across the beach. Another great thing is the rare snorkeling just near the point. Rare for snorkelers on this island. Worth it!

Geographically, the best place to experience on Koh Samet. Best pool location imaginable. It sits out on a narrow peninsula, with bungalows facing out towards two opposite views. On some days, south facing bungalows receive the prevailing winds. Surprisingly good snorkeling off the rocks on calm days in the right tides. I’ve stayed here before, several times. Restaurant sits in spectacular position at the end of the beach, looking back across the beach. Awe inspiring really. Bed was the worst we slept in on our trip, but not so bad as to not recommend this unique group of bungalows with gorgeous Thai architecture! If you enjoy photos and selfies, THIS IS THE #1 spot on the island!!! The bungalows have recently been painted and repaired (last time here, there were leaks and more things needed attention. Breakfast used to be the worst on the island, but they’re improving that too. Breakfast still can’t compare to other resorts, but the new, incredible pool location makes up for any imperfections. It’s quiet, alone on its peninsula... but 2 minutes walk from the busy beach activities of the other side-by-side bungalows on the main beach. Downsides are the awkward walk to access. And poor bed, and improving food and no low budget menu items... but still.... EVERYONE should try this place once!!! If they make a few changes, it will be THE place to stay on Samet!!!

it was o.k.

Hotel is in a lovely location on a headland, beach is gorgeous as is the island. Lots of low key beach bars and dining very close. We have stayed at this hotel a number of times and while it could be very stylish, it has got more in need of some tlc each year- balconies need attention; doors need sealing and it all needs a coat of paint and a bit of care. The staff are indifferent and the breakfast is truly grim- come on Vimarn, you can do better than this with a bit of effort!

It’s near the beach, inaccessible to road. If you get 1 near the road, it won’t be near the beach else it will be expensive. With this price, sea view , it’s worth! Saw people snorkelling in front of the hotel, bring your own gears if you have. Breakfast is ok, simple. Having breakfast with magnificent sea view is relaxing! Recommend to rent bike from the pier, 300-400baht so you could ride in about 15min and back when going home. Else taxi is about 200-250baht to get to this hotel plus 3 min walk in or cut through Tom Pizza and walk through the beach. What disappoints me is that I have to TOP up extra for late check out.

The only good thing I can say about this hotel is it has a beautiful view. The rooms is over priced and its limited to resources and comfort. The staff think they do you a favour when ask for assistance or even a drink at the limited bar. If I knew what I knew now I would spend extra and go live at the resort next door. Disappointing but so we learn. And can some one just go clean up around the hotel its a beautiful island lool after it!!

Poor service and disgracful facilities. We were very upset choosing this hotel. We were not satisfied.
