Most beautiful beach on Koh Samed”
Our 4 day stay at Ao Cho Grand View was one of the best holidays we have ever had. Sadly, in the times of COVID, we had the hotel mostly to ourselves. Friendly staff who arranged special breakfast for us in our villa. Very clean, good food, excellent cocktails, it's truly the most beautiful beach with crystal clear waters. Staff were helpful in pointing us to the motorbike rental with great advice on where to go on the island. We'll definitely come back again soon. Special thanks to Khun Jenny, who take care of us very nicely.

All is good, room was nice, food delicious but too many mosquitoes ”
Great hotel with nice rooms and foods, we were happy and even extended stay. Disappointed only with heavy amount of mosquitoes in the area and next to our bungalow (in the water tank for feet washing at he entrance), staff also did nothing when I asked to give spray or set any device. Believe me it was really terrible and me and my son back covered with bites (all happened during day time despite on my constant control and repellents use. We also use mosquitoes net over the bed while sleeping. My 3 yrs old got almost 30 bites and myself a bit less; we leave in Thailand for many years and this is really my first experience of such thing). The other thing as it was rainy season we had to back to the room every time during rain as there is no roof in the beach dining area. That would be nice having a drink or meal during rain while sitting outdoor; hotel also would make more money if provide such comfort. Currently only reception ares has room but it’s very tiny. I will be back but not in rain season and with tons of repellents next time

One of my favorites”
I've been going to Samet for many years and stayed at various hotels on the island. Ao Co Greandview Hideaway is one of my favorite places to stay on the island. This time there was a hiccup with my booking but the manager handled it very well. Kudos. Since I was there midweek and there were very few guests, dinner was only served until 7pm. Not a great arrangement. Breakfast was limited but it changed to a full-on buffet on my last day (Friday). Beautiful beach.

One of the best on Samed”
This is definitely my favorite hotel on the island. We've been there at least 10 times already. And they are still the best. The only thing that can be improved is hot water in bath in ocean suite in 103(it runs extremely slow, it took an hour to get the hot bath) , and shower stand need to be fixed. Everything else is just perfect. We gonna be back soon:)

Great Location Hotel”
The hotel is located on Ao Cho beach which is great to relax or enjoy the very, VERY chill bars of the beach at night. The hotel is quiet and welcoming to guests, Bungalows are made out of concrete and not all facing the beach but quality is there and they don't feel cheap. Breakfast is nice but the staff might quickly be overwhelmed on normal to high frequentation mornings. Some boat trips are offered through the hotel but come as a relatively high price when compared to what is available in the rest of the island. Perhaps the value is also higher... Motorbikes are available to rent near the hotel. You might want to buy additional drinking water if you spend some time near your room, as two small bottles per day is not enough. Overall very good experience, would recommend!

I would give Ao Cho 6 Stars if I could. Highlight is friendliness and helpfulness of Staff. ”
Pros are Staff ( friendly and helpful), great location on private easy going beach( not overfilled), clean and well maintained rooms, Breakfast (fruits, eggs, bread as well as Asian). Cons.... If anything a pool would make it perfect, but I‘m not even sure we would have used it.

Place to relax”
The Resort is absolutely to recommend. The choice of the Breakfast changed every day and it's very delicious. The Staff is very friendly and always effort to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The Beach is not crowded and the best choice when you are travelling with kids. The Rooms are very clean and with a good WiFi.

Ian from Australia”
3rd visit to Koh Samet and this is the hidden gem on the island. Quiet private beach, easily accessible to most things but if want to get to min area of town will need a taxi or moped. I hired one for the 10 days spent here. 300 baht day and used it everyday to do things like utilise local services outside of the resort - minimart for cheaper drinks, snacks and laundry services and gave the ability to go into town to try one of the hundreds of restaurants. Best food is Buddies on the main beach - it's the first restaurant you come across on the main beach. Don't tell everyone as don't ant this place to be overcrowded for my next visit.

Best location ”
Really appreciated the beauty of this spot on the island. The beach has gorgeous soft sand and the water is clear turquoise blue. We had two garden villas which turned out to be close to the sandy beach and had lovely views of the ocean. Rooms were clean and modern; linen fresh and beds very comfortable. The beach towels are probably due for upgrading. The breakfast buffet was very nice in a lovely setting overlooking the water. We ate most meals at the onsite ocean front restaurant - feet in the sand and under fairy lights - and really loved the massaman curry and Penang curry. We tried some other venues on the island but decided this was the tastiest and cleanest. The staff were very nice. We would recommend this hotel which is easily reached from Bangkok. The trip from BKK airport took 2 hours each way by private taxi plus 15 minutes on the private hotel speedboat.

We really liked the resort and our bay”
The 3* resort has a good standard and the staff tries its best. English is spoken by most of the staff (basic or communicative). They are nice people. Rooms are clean, room service fine. Towels are not white any more but washed. European breakfast selection is rather poor but better than in other places we visited in Malaysia and Thailand this summer. You have on top some variety of hot Asian dishes and a possibility of freshly made omelette or eggs. There is a charge for staying in the nation park collected on arrival, but you don’t see any effort to improve the situation with the rubbish. You see them everywhere outside resorts, in the common areas of beach, in between resorts, in the forest. It is very sad! Too much plastic and plastic bottles used daily, tons of drinking straws... No recycling for anything.

Dear Olimpia, Many thanks for the valued feedback. We were very pleased to learn that our staff service has met your expectation. at the same time, you had found out that our resort's amenities also were living up to the resort's standard. We have noted on your observation about the breakfast variety. Kindly be informed that the breakfast variety has been increased more items to provide a proper service and standard to our lovely guests like yours. With regards to the rubbish. As we've seen that the national park either government officer relates to the safety and cleanliness, they've been trying hard to work out on this, so far should you were here there will be slightly changing of improvement accordingly - We look forward to welcoming you to stay with us once again and more many time in the future.

great hideaway”
secluded and set apart...quiet and just a relaxing place to be. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was great with it's own balcony looking out to the sea. It wasn't right on the beach, but it had a good view of the sea. The bungalows on the beach look very nice bu I had reserved one off the beach...I did request a good ocean view and I think I had one of the best, so they were very accommodating. The breakfast was very good with a lot to offer. I did not eat at the restaurant, but the restaurant opposite the cove was very good. Happy hour on some cocktails and the drinks were okay. Overall good experience and I would recommend as well as stay again if I wanted a quiet, tranquil stay. If you are looking for more of a party atmosphere, this is not the place to be, although it can be found just a short motorbike or taxi ride away about 10 to 15 minutes. One negative is that you NEED a motorbike or taxi to get around as walking is far. Nice hikes, but going out is a trek.

Peaceful and kid friendly ”
Stayed 5 days in the Superior family room #3. Very comfortable room for family of 4 with 2 king beds. The property is small which makes it feel very safe and intimate. Private beach was so relaxing and awesome for swimming. Water is shallow, warm, and calm. We would spend the day there playing, relaxing, and swimming after breakfast. Staff were very attentive and kind and did a great job taking care of us. We will definitely stay here again.

Great beach shoreline and facilities”
The resort is clean and staff were friendly. We enjoyed water sports with the free use of canoes, Life jackets, snorkels, etc We had loads of fun. Considered a pretty good hotel w Pte beach on the island. The beach shoreline was also safe for my elderly parents to play in. No sudden drop. PS: resort would have scored 5 for staff had they been more active in replying emails regarding ‘Getting There’
