Nim-ma-no-ra-dee, Koh Samet, Ao Pakarang
Absolutely the worst experience I have ever had in any hotel. The staff were not in any way helpful, and really just rude. The beachfront cottage I paid more for was actually a dirt path front cottage that overlooked steep jagged rocks then water. There is no actual sand that you can lie down on anywhere on the property. The website boasts Thai massage yet I was told it wasn t possible because their masseuse was on vacation during peak season. The actual cottage could have been perceived as charming, had they bothered to clean the disgusting bathroom or even just used clean linens. The pool is large enough for about four people, provided they weren t interested in swimming laps. Did i mention its an above ground model? Lastly, if you did happen to book here, don t plan on seeing the rest of the island, eating anywhere but the hotel(that only serves Thai beer, limited soft drinks and fruit juice), lying on the beach, or booking any sort of fishing trip without a 40 minute, 600 Baht(one-way) taxi ride on one of the worst roads I ve ever seen. I can only be happy that I only paid for two nights, the second of which we didn t bother staying. Koh Samet is an absolutely beautiful island with much to offer, don t book at Nim-ma-no-ra-dee!

The rooms were lovely, very clean and the air con was very efficient. The views were spectacular, the staff very friendly and helpful. Food was simple, but good, and there was plenty of choice.
The beach is not the best on the island - very small and quite rocky, but much better when the tide is in.
We would definitely return, as it s so peaceful.

Everything went very smoothly with no problems at all.

I ve just visited this resort and as far as thai resorts go I would say this place is disappointing. The price was more expensive than other resorts of a similar standard on Koh Samet.
The rooms are quite nice, individual modern huts with TV, fridge and air conditioning. The connecting toilets and showers are ok, they could be cleaner and there were a lot of ants.
The service was below average from the initial greeting when we arrived by boat to the waitresses in the restaurant. Maybe this is a little fussy but no offer to help carry our bags was made and the girls in the restaurant seemed more keen to sit and gossip rather than pay attention to customers waiting to make orders.
The restaurant food is average, they offer a range of thai dishes although the prices are steep, starting at about 80 baht up to about 300 baht. They are not generous with the size of the meals for the price.
This resort advertises rooms as beach front or seaview. Well the beach is non-existant and most of the rooms are rock front. The photo s on there website show the beach at high tide. The beach is extremely rocky and when we were there no attempt had been made to clean the rubbish that had been washed up onto the beach/ rocks. You cannot see the sun set in the west from the resort, you need to walk across the rocks to the most westerly point of the bay if the tide permits.
Overall I would not recommend this resort unless you like rocky beaches. It s seclusion is not a positive. The beach and resorts on Ao Wong Deuan are of better quality.

Booking is safe, quick and very easy.

A lovely secluded place at the end of the island. Wonderful service! I a great place for a week end get-away. Quiet and peaceful on a lovely cove. suggest using the speed boat to arrive and depart as it is a long way from the main pier on Koh Samet. Also far from shopping and night life if that is of interest. A perfect spot if want to get want to just kick back and enjoy a relaxing time! We would go back again

The hotel staff were very accomodating and friendly and the resort was beautiful and off the usual tourist route so relaxing and private. The food at the restaurant was excellent and my stay was excellent value for money.
