Perfect spot on Koh Samet!”

We are really glad we chose Vimarn. The reviews we read were not great, yet it is obvious management listened to those reviews. The resort has been renovated and our room was not 'dated' or full of cockroaches (in fact we never saw a single roach the whole week we were there anywhere). The room came with everything you could ask for including towels for all 4 of us and the free breakfast was also for all 4 of us! The room was perfect for a family, although I would not recommend the family room for young children. The second bed is up ladder stairs which are VERY steep and our 2 year old fell down them (he's okay, but it could've been really bad). Breakfast was geared towards the Chinese market. While the scrambled eggs were delicious, there wasn't much choice between eggs, fruit and sausage each morning. It's fine for a couple mornings in a row though! With Koh Samet being full of mosquitoes, literally there must be a billion mozzies there, Vimarn is situated perfectly with the breeze keeping the mosquitoes away. You also get incredible views from here of 2 beaches and the sea and there are so many seating options to enjoy the views, from the swings, to the swinging benches, to the poolside deck chairs. The pool was just perfect and has a kiddy pool section. We would definitely recommend staying here. They are continuing to improve the resort and even built a new deck while we were there. We hope to be back in the future! Vongdeuan beach is also the nicest beach on the east side. It's a short walk to the next beaches too. We hope you enjoy your stay!

Perfect for hanging around at the beach and not in the room. ”

If you want to make vacations at Koh Samet then don't look at the hotel. You'll be at the beach most of the time. The Vikar Samet Resort is at the corner of the beach, so if you don't want to make a lot of party until the end of the night, it's the perfect place. If they had a place to wash your feet after walking on the sand, everything would be perfect. Yes, the bathroom could be better, but what do you expect for this price? Everything worked and we had a beautiful time at Koh Samet. Thanks Vimarn Samet Resort!

Good location and nice rooms for the price.”

We have stayed on Ko Samet at least 12 times and at the Vimarn Samed Resort about 5 times (we live just an hour away). The location is good, situated on a rocky outcrop between two beaches, so it's just 30 seconds walk to Ao Vongduan or 2 minutes walk to the quieter Ao Tawan. The Thai food at Vimarn is pretty good except the (included) breakfast, which is grim - but that is a fairly common complaint at most Ko Samet resorts. I usually have a lie in or go for a swim until breakfast is over then go and order from the main menu. Some of the older rooms would benefit from a refurb, especially the bathrooms but everything is clean and, taken as a whole, you would be lucky to find another place this good at these prices.

best location on WD”

3rd time in Vimarn Samet.a bit different from what i saw 3 years ago,however its still one of the best resort on that beach.cliff location gives a great view and wind during the day and evenings.decent non-expensive food at their restaurant.

Calm and peace”

Ao Wongduan is the most beautiful point in Samed. There are light white sand, blue-green water and good facilities. Vimarn Samed Resort is the most popular in this bay. There are fabulous scenery and peaceful pages. The meal also clean and tasty. Therefore the impression are all-day calm and excited night life.

unforgetable memory”

I booked the superior bungalow seaview room for two nights. We had a wonderful experience staying at Vimarn Samed Resort. Staff are very nice and always smile.We like the outside restaurant just on the rock.

Very good”

very nice place we went in speed boat but they drop you on beach and we had to ask someone on beach were the hotel was it was a fair walk along the beach with our cases some one did come from hotel to help us after some phone them we were here . very layed back hotel could do with revamp A1A2A3 are very nice facing the sea ko samet vey relaxing holiday no cars buses or trains enjoyed our stay at vimarn. there are no activities .but a lush pool.

nice hotel and quiet location”

It was a pleasant trip. I and my 3 friends spent 2 nights at a 2-storey family seaview Bangalow. The rooms are cosy, worth of the price. We quite like the location of the resort. There is quiet and nice beach, private, no noisy crwods or pubs. We prefer Ao Wong Duan than Ao Sai Keaw. It's good for a family with kids to have a realx stay.

Nice location on a rock between two beaches”

This is one of the better options on Koh Samet Island, which often doesn't offer good value for money due to the proximity to Bangkok. The hotel is on beautiful Au Wongduean Beach which is quite a nice beach and has much better characters than the party beaches further up north on Koh Samet. The rooms are comfortable and come with cosy bed, free wifi and big bathroom. There are also bungalows available that could be good value during the weekdays when Koh Samet is getting quiet as Bangkok people are working. The breakfast doesn't offer brewed coffee and the food was cold.

Very nice bungalow nearby the sea”

We did love this hotel. The bungalow nearby the sea is so lovely and the room is small but very confortable. Don't need anything else. Not have a sand beach, but you just have to walk 50 meters to find the great sans beach of Wongduan bay. Breakfast could be better but I totally recommand this hotel :)

Christmas trip to Samet island”

I booked the suite it came with two king Beds and seating area. Large covered patio over looking Ao Cho but my hotel actually located in Ao Wong Duean. It is perfect location between two beaches. Breakfast is very basic and they young girl cooking the eggs does not seems happy and not understand what you ask for. The older one is better. Water in Ao Wong Duean is super clean and calm but I think next Beach Ao Cho may be little better. nightly fire show start at 7pm is not to miss

Good resort on a very nice beach but small rooms”

We stayed in this resort for three nights. The room was quite small yet very comfortable. The location is quite good. It is located at the end of the beach, so it is very quiet. We could walk from the hotel to another beach in a minute, therefore, we could enjoy two beaches at the same time. Breakfast was provided, it was not bad yet there were not many choices. Overall, I think it's a good resort.

Romantic room”

This hotel locate in the Samed Island that is one of the best place to visit in Thailand. Nice beach and sea-vew with you can enjoy swimming and sea activity. You can enjoy fresh seafood. Very large room, big bed and comfortable. At night time, there is a big party on the beach that you can enjoy drinking, dancing and chilling with a lot of travellers especially foreigner. Good choice.

Lovely hotel with friendly and helpfull staf. ”

We enjoyed our stay at this resort. Staff is friendly and helpfull. My friend who had bad eyesight was very well taken care of by the staff; they helped him every time to get to his bungalow. The matras was a bit too hard to my taste. The Thai menu in the restaurant is good. When you want to come to this hotel get on the Malibu boat which takes you directly to Ao Wong Duan for Baht 80. It saves you a bouncy trip on a pick up truck.

Very good”

I think koh samet hotels have bit checkin problems when you travel in low season specially when its raining..... Location was great coz its a real hideaway..... Coz you will find hard to find the hotel...... Which makes your stay perfect hideaway

Great location”

Great value for money. This hotel was clean and tidy, rooms are basic but fine. The hotel is at the end of the beach so away from any bar noise. Only few minutes walk to the beach and restaurants etc. Breakfast was ok, nothing flash but great hotel for your stay on Koh Samet.

Beautiful bungalow hotel in Wong Duen”

We arrived on the main ferry at the north of Ko Samet and took a truck down to Wong Duen. From that direction, the hotel is a bit of an effort to reach since it is all the way out on the rocky shore. Once we got to the hotel though, we were pleasantly surprised by the traditional private cottage and a garden view that was actually a partial view of the water. The restaurant was a bit overpriced, but the breakfast was a full and impressive spread with Thai and western options. This hotel was lovely and I would return without reservation or hesitation.

Good location & nice views.”

Nice small resort, good breakfast. It is the "sunniest" place on the beach :) Pool area is very nice, have many different places for relax - hammocks, loungers , chairs.... We stayed at a Garden view cottage - it is nice but too small, & there is no place to put Your things to... Only one closet,no rack, no shelf, not even hook or nail in the wall. The same in the bathroom - no place to put a towel & clothes to. It is not a big problem if You stay a night or 2 , but will be uncomfortable, if You stay longer. But despite this I liked the place, as I liked Samed,

A great option for Koh Samet”

This resort does the job, it is cost effective, has a great location with all necessities in close proximity (restaurants and a convenient store), views and pool facilities. The restaurant has good food and is located so that you can watch the sunset over the bay whilst eating dinner. This is a great place to stay if you simply want a relaxing beach vacation. All the staff were friendly and attentive. My only constructive criticism: the mattresses needed replacing as they sagged in and the bathroom shower needed to be bleached down to remove the black mold. The overall resort needs a little bit of fixing up, but all minor details. It's still a lovely resort nonetheless.

Nice and Comfortable”

When we check in at resort they can't found record but later upgrade room to us from Superior to be Villa cottage sea view.it was impression nice and wide rooms outside balcony we can sit and see around sea views very beautiful. i was forgot keychain card room at Seahorse2 Restaurant when return to ask them They can't help us to find that terrible action to do that anyway other guest of restaurant saw that someone at waiter of restaurant took key and keep it but told us not found cause this restaurant bad service and bad taste of food with high cost too much We advise to all didn't go to this restaurant strictly for us next time not go to this restaurant sure. At resort can help give us new key card for reopen our rooms but when check out They said must to charge for that, anyway We 're lost key bymyself I will pay them for cost of new key. Once thing breakfast at this normal and not too much for various foods but I can accept that.
