Awesome”
We stayed 6 nights in this resort. Staff was great and very helpful. Two swimmingpools where you can enjoy your day. There is no childrens swimmingpool. There is motorbike rental for 300/400bahts per day. One little beach is near and minimarket just around The corner. Resort has its own restaurant with good food but there is not many restaurants near by. If you want to find most beautiful beaches on The island and restaurants you need a motorbike or taxi. We really enjoyed our time at this resort and would gladly come again.

Clean and comfortable ”
The resort is very comfortable however we did receive room service maybe it was because it was over new years weekend. However the staff and owner was extremely helpful and informative. The food was excellent and the atmosphere were very relaxing. I highly recommend this place.

Great Find”
This was a really pleasant stay. I almost want to leave a bad review, just so it doesn't get too popular, but that would be unfair. ok its hidden away and you HAVE to rent a bike to get any where, but fantastic pool, friendly staff and decent rooms for the price I paid.

Returning visit.”
Great hotel, we were there last years and this visited were 2nd time by Agoda.com however, we used to booked by another channels in this property too. It was great hotel with two swimming pool at property which made us more relaxing away from crown as per number of accommodations. We are planning to visit there again not for the party mostly Beach & Food & Pool at Pandora were meet my expectations a lot. Keep up your flexible request sometime from local like us. However, we understand.

Has potential but not recommended”
Pros - 2 nice pools - large rooms Cons - bad location (200m to nearest beach 3km to nice beach - transportation issues, see below) - uncomfortable beds and woken every time someone used the stairwell (1/3 of rooms are near noisy stairwell) - overpriced (for the price we payed we could have got something much better) We did our research and the biggest issue was clearly the location. Without a bike you are at the mercy of the private taxis and can’t explore the islands beaches which is the main point of visiting Samed. There are not enough bikes on the island so everyone advises to ask your hotel in advance to book a bike. We did this, calling and emailing the hotel and both times were told we could book a bike when we arrive and we wouldn’t have an issue - unlike other hotels they wouldn’t let us book in advance. We took their word for it, turn up midday to check in and asked to rent a bike .. sorry no bikes available on the island.. sigh

Ao noina beach is a nice beach with not many tourists, peaceful and relaxing. There is plenty of motorcycles for rent on the island, there is more motorcycles for rent 100 meters from Pandora Resort
Good Place, but no breakfast for the money they charge.Expensive food ”
decent place for stay, beautiful location with both beach and hill view. Staff asking for service charge just for delivering food to room. Hardly 50 steps for them. and its mandatory. (100 THB was the service charge). expensive drinks and food. better to eat outside, better options and cheap food
See room deals
There is service change if you want food delivered to your room but if you wait at the bar area and bring your food yourself its free
A delightful stay in the national park ”
A perfect getaway !!! Having stayed many times on Koh Samet we decided to try somewhere different away from the crowds having found a special opening price on Agodad. Pandora is located on the quieter side of the island... A brand new resort cut into the hillside overlooking a beautiful swimming pool...trees and the ocean in the distance about a 4 minute walk away to a lovely white sand beach. The room had its own bed room and separate lounge room and small veranda huge glass doors overlooking a panoramic view. Cooking facilities were available but we did not have time to use.Air Con an added bonus especially for a good nights sleep.The staff were all so pleasant unlike other resorts on Samet we have stayed ... Nothing was a problem, always willing to assist you and with a smile.A scooter is probably recommended if you want to go exploring and there are 3 7/11 shops on the island for almost everything you need with a couple of ATM machines for cash if required.Pandora in my opinion is a perfect get away only interrupted by a little noise of surrounding building which is everywhere if you are familiar with Thailand. The bar next to the pool a good reason not to leave the water as there are seats built in the water.From what I could see there are 3 stages to the Pandora project this being the first and if this is anything to go by it will be PARADISE for all whom visit.Samet is about 3 1/2 hours from BKK my favourite place in Thailand . I can't wait for the next opportunity to return to Koh Samet's tropical paradise and stay at this great new multicultural resort.

Best hotel I've stayed in on Koh Samet”
We spent just under a week at Pandora and we can't speak highly enough about it. Normally I'm not one for writing reviews but this is a fairly new resort and I thought I should do my bit to spread the word about this place. We have been to Samet a few times before and generally stay in places that are priced in a similar bracket and I've got to say this is by far the best standard of room I've ever stayed in at that price. The rooms are incredibly spacious with good AC, that actually stays on when you leave the room unlike most places, and the bathroom had a great shower and was spotless. The living room had another sofa bed although we just used as a sofa, a great flat screen TV, local sattilite TV and a DVD player for those nights you just want to curl up after a long day at the beach. I wouldn't normally review the minibar but it needs a mention, I say minibar it's a full size fridge stocked full of everything you could want and we compared the prices some of the stuff in there was cheaper than the local 7/11. The resort itself has a fantastic pool, you have to have your picture done in the little windows, and a well stocked bar. The bar staff are really friendly and the food served is to a very high standard, they do a great fry up to cue the hangovers and the Thai food is just as good. The closest beach is a few minutes walk away and we almost had the beach to ourselves, it's as picturesque as the main beaches but without the hundreds of speedboats and jet skiers flying past. It was the perfect place to relax for a few days. There is a bit if building work going on but I've got to say it didn't once disturb us, most of the work we saw was being done by hand so the isn't really an excessive noise, this resort is going to be one of the best on the island and we will certainly be visiting again.

Great new hotel with pool and nature.”
Just stayed in the brand new resort 'Pandora' on Samet island. This place has just opened and is doing a great promotional offer right now. My wife and I booked a one-bedroom suite overlooking a great pool. The one bedroom also has a separate living room with kitchenette and sofa bed so for those with children or wanting more space than a usual hotel, this is a great choice. It's a little off the beach - about 250 metres - but actually I think this adds to the place as you get a very natural experience, surrounded by trees and with views of the sea and it's very easy to stroll down to the nearest beach or go to the busier Sai Kaew beach. Not many places on Samet have a pool and this one is really good especially bearing in mind the price we paid. Although there is some building going on nearby, it doesn't intrude on your stay. Also, because it's very new and only about 20 rooms at the moment, it is peaceful and friendly and has a very good vide to it. Great place at a good price and highly recommended".

Nice and fresh resort with a fantyastic pool”
The Pandora resort was a surprise, so nice place and very friendly staff. As allways Koh Samet is the paradise on earth and then when spending the time at the new built Pandora it made it even better. I never stay at this side of the Island before but can highly recomend others to do so as this a quiet area where You can relax but also not far away from the nearest beach(approx 250 meter)I will for sure return to Pandora again

Lovely staff, clean and modern.”
Pandora is a lovely Resort with very friendly staff. We booked for 2 nights originally and then decided to staff for another 5 nights. The owner is English and seems to have got things very right. The food was lovely and a reasonable price. The rooms are very spacious and modern, every room has a pool view. There are two pools both equally nice and inviting. The location is a bit far out from the main busy areas, you can get a taxi which cost 200 baht. To walk would take around 30 minutes. There is a beach within 5 minutes walk however the nicer beach (white sands) is again around 30 minutes walk. There are many places to hire a motor bike on the island including Pandora and the island is very safe to drive around, there are many speed bumps keeping everyone driving pretty slow.

Great hotel, best on island for the price, ”
Great accommodation on Koh samet, though you do need a scooter ( like most Thai places) to explore and get about. The rooms are like condos, kitchen area and sofa large bathroom with very hot water and then a bedroom with very comfy bed. The 2 pools and pool area are great too. Hardly saw any hotels with pools on the island especially for the price. If you need some where to eat a place around 2km called banana bar is actually amazing, one of the best curries we both tasted. Would definitely recommend if we went back to Koh samet. Only negative the island isn't as impressive as some other thai islands we have stayed on, we left after just 2 days.

Friendly, relaxing and clean”
I stayed here for a week and for a 3 star hotel I was very impressed. The room was spacious and clean with a well stocked mini bar. The staff were great, very helpful and friendly and after getting to know them a little I learned the kitchens were at a European level of hygiene which is hard to find especially on one of Thailands smaller islands and this showed in the quality and delicious meals I had there. With 2 swimming pools there's plenty of room to relax and for kids to play. Travelling alone i depend on good WiFi and Internet speeds for my entertainment so I was very happy to get a solid 25mbps here which was more than enough for Netflix or the likes. Koh samet is a tropical island and does suffer from power outages in heavy rain so I did loose power for a short time but that's not limited to this hotel, it was an entire section of the island and happens on most smaller Thai islands. To sum up, for a 3 star hotel on an island at this price you can't go wrong! English traveller

Thanks Steven, glad you enjoyed your time at Pandora Resort
Great place would definetly go back”
This hotel is the newest in Koh Samet, If you are looking for a bit of luxury then is the place to go, the staff are great really friendly and take good care of their guests. Internet is really good in the rooms and the mini bar is the best i have ever seen. One thing about this hotel is that there is construction going on next to the hotel but this never bothered us atol, they dont start making noise until afternoon and by that time you are away to the beach ect. I have been to koh Samet many times and i will be going back to this hotel for sure.

superb”
excellent hotel, Staff are great, the road leading to the hotel needs to be fixed but apart from that no complaints, the best hotel in Koh Samet and i have been going there for many years, this is a new hotel which is very comfortable. If your not wanting the usual Koh Samet standard of room then stay here. A little bit of Luxury. I cant wait to get back and see the Staff again. English owned hotel. I met the owner who is very approachable and friendly.
