Ko Kut Ao Phrao Beach Resort

The lay-out was surprising to me, the restaurant is all the way in the beginning of the resort so you do not really get to see the ocean, which is the main reason people are there. However there are nice beds close to the ocean, just make sure you are not right under a palm tree.. those coconuts can do a lot of harm coming down. Breakfast was very limited In terms of freshness of fruit and no yoghurt... in general there was limited access to fruit, which off course they have great access to. Every day it was pinnacle or papaya even though the staff was eating all kinds of exotic fruits.. simple change would be needed here. Staff was very friendly, however only 1 or 2 spoke any English but it got the job done. Massage area is very nice but exposed so you are not in a private setting when they ask you to take off your clothes and bathing suit... can easily be remedied. I love the bay and the island but for next time I would not want a room and decor that makes me feel I am in the 70ies

They really need to renovate. It's not dirty but everything is old. It's not worthy for that much money. Maybe 30 dollars would be reasonable for one night I think. There were 2 good things. hot shower and so helpful staffs. That's it

The resort was very nice and despite being a bit out of the way we enjoyed our stay up until the end when the hotel gave us the bill, they added on lots of additional charges and cost much more then original price we were given when we placed the booking Very annoyed, paid much more then what was agreed when we placed the original booking on Agoda. When I asked why the price had gone up so much they just stayed quite and did not respond. When we left we spoke to another couple who had also been overcharged. I will never stay here again Be careful if you stay here and keep a copy of the amount on your booking sheet so they can't overcharge you

Hi all, really good Resort on the beautiful beach, just could be motorbike hire price a bit more reasonable.. 350 B per day is a bit too much.. 🙁

in the evening often noisy from the barzone. Beach okay, food okay but not really overwelming.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would recommend this resort to others. The beaches a hundred meters from the resort are the biggest draw. There's a long stretch of beautiful beach. The free kayaks with life jackets also make the stay a good experience. Rooms are basic with mattress on floor, but comfortable. However, one drawback was that management allowed karaoke singing at loud volume until after 10 pm. Electricity cut out and went on/off frequently starting at 6:00 am on one of the mornings of our stay making it hard to sleep after that. Finally, management charged high price (800 Baht) for truck back to main port and didn't make it clear in advance so it came as a surprise since the cost from the main port was 500 Baht after catching a ride with a bus. The distance from the main port is a drawback, if traveling by land from the main port it takes an hour. Ao Prao should have more speedboats as an option.

can rent motor bike and travel easily. very nice reception and I love the private beach.

Pros: 1.) Peaceful and beautiful beach with facilities provided. 2.) Staffs are friendly and helpful. 3.) Good environment and not so busy even though the resort are fully booked. 4.) The room was quite clean. Cons: 1.) As typical Thai family, we are not very impressed with the food. Not spicy enough and too salty for some dish. Few choices for breakfast. They have free kayaks and paddle boards for rent (thb150/hr). Also the taxi service and motorbike for rent if you wish to travel around the island. Around 1 hr away from the ferry pier.

Great resort on a superb island. The resort is very well maintained but still keeps the relaxed vibe that you want to feel during your holiday. The staff is helpful and very attentive to all the little things that need to be done (like cleaning, maintenance, service). The food in the restaurant is also good, some of the dishes even outstanding. There's lots of space and the grounds are well maintained. The beach is also perfect, quite big but not busy with too many people. Well done to the management and the staff for the high standards and the chill out atmosphere. I'll gladly return.

Kho Kood is the most beautiful island in Thailand, far away from parties and mass tourism. Ao Phrao beach is beautiful with crystal clear water, few people and a clean sandy beach. The resort is great with friendly staff, good food, clean bungalows and a natural and neat garden. We will definately come back!

The location is 45 mins by car but really worth it. The beach and crystal clear sea are very impressive. All staff are very helpful and high service minded. My garden villa is clean and 3-star standard. Will come back for sure.

We stayed there for one week, and were not very happy. Why not? Room: clean, but quite small, old and little furniture (e.g. no chair to sit inside) some furniture broken, old tube TV with really bad quality of picture (a lot of „snow“), not often internet, bathroom outside with no roof, things from trees falling into shower. No roof over the little place you can sit outside in front of the house, you sit in the sun and the rain. Garden: very big and beautiful, staff put a lot of energy to take care. But no swimming pool (would be good when you cannot go to swim into the sea because to big waves over a longer time). Beach: small but nice, clean, slowly going down. Nice chairs. Because there was the whole week a lot of wind with big waves I cannot tell if there is good for snorkling, but I don´t think so. No sunset because not orientation to west. Surrounding: at the end of the island, no shops, no other restaurants or bars around. So very quiet, what is good for people looking for this. But no fun around. Staff: big staff, very friendly and helpful. They do all they can. All in all it is a resort coming old with small rooms and old equipment, for me too expensive for the value you get. We don´t go anymore.

i enjoyed the stay in the hotel so much so that i didn't step out of it during the whole week i was there. the facilities and service have provided all you needed for a vacation. Both me and the kids were so happy and comfortable during the week stay there. Soft remind, don't forget to bring mosquito-proof lotion since there must be many mosquitoes and bugs in a places surrounded by trees and water, but it is not 100% hit rate, we total have 4 tripped there, only me got bad hurt from mosquitoes

It was a shame they didn’t have a selection of food, it was the same menu every day.

Very good place for ralaxing and recharging your energy. Beautiful long beach, I will difinitely return to.

ความหลากหลายของอาหารเช้าน้อยไปหน่อย คลื่นแรงทำให้ไม่สามารถพายเรือคายัคได้

À shame ! This hôtel provide no food After 8 PM. now WE are are starving... the staff at night do not speak english. they only laugh when we asked for food. it is a A shame to starve guest. WE plan to stat a while. but i think we will leave as soon as possible because this resort is far away from everything and you can't find any restaurant around. I really do not recomand this place instead you belong to a russian tour operator. this ressort prefer to sold alcool than food.

We accidentally ended up here by our guesthouse that was overbooked during Christmastime. We enjoyed the space and bungalow. The beach is very close, really nice and a great sunset. What more do you need? Only the food was a little disappointing.

For dinner the larger part of the restaurant is reserved for the Russian guests. Four tables were left for other guest (read no package tour guests). Reception area consists of tables put together and also serves as shop (icecream, drinks,wine etc.). Receptionists vary in friendlyness and service. The beach is nice but all the beds were occupied early in the morning.  There is no pool. Food is ok. Rooms look like trailer camp caravans from the outside and basic on the inside.  Bed is quite good and they have open air showers but nothing fancy. We could hear our neighbours snoring and talking. There were other better looking rooms (at least from the outside) but they were not available.  As you walk from the entrance to the reception you will first pass the kitchen and the personnel quarters. It is not possible to get to the hotel by boat. You will need to take a taxi from the pier. I would not return here because now I know there are better options around for less money.

Not a great start, we were left by the boat at a nearby resort for 2 hours while the staff arranged to pick us up! Greeted at Ao Phrao by friendly and apologetic staff, the resort and gardens are very pretty with a beautiful beach, the bungalows looked very nice from the outside but were very dated inside. Hot shower didn't work and one of the toilet basins was cracked so every time it was flushed the contents ran out. ( luckily there was a second toilet) .. A double was requested but for some reason there were 5 single beds crammed in each bungalow? The food was good in the restaurant and we enjoyed our stay. It was a welcome break after travelling so much until the weekly visit by 3 boats full of Russians on a day and night excursion from Pattaya turned up. The peace was shattered and we were kept awake until 4.30am. We left after three days a little disappointed and feeling our stay was not value for money.
