Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na
I can see this resort as being a very romantic spot with better weather than the rainy season offers travellers at this time of the year. Accommodations were spaceous and comfortable and memorable in terms of the unique touches in the luxury bungalows, situated a stone s throw away from the beach. Had a nice peaceful time here. Staff were very friendly and service oriented. I liked the local ferryboat that took us visitors back to the mainland. Very convenient. |
the booking service system indicated that the first choice I had made for a hotel on Koh Samed was not available, so I took this as a working option. |

Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na
Although a nice resort, it is not worth the money spent. It is a nice quiet area, but the 4 to 5K baht that they charge is just too expensive. The resort itself closes at 10pm (didn t mention this when we dropped off our keys, so came home at 10.30 to a closed reception without our room keys...), there are no tv s in the rooms, no bathtub, just the private outdoor shower (not always convenient when it rains) and generally there is just not much to do at or around the resort.
The food at the restaurant, although not bad, is too expensive for what you get, and better food can be had much cheaper at other parts of the island. Has to be said that the service of the staff is generally good and friendly.
The resort is far away from the main bar/restaurant area at Had Sai Kiew/Ao Phai, and with a taxi between 200 and 300 baht 1 way, it s inconveniently located if you don t want to spend the whole day at the resort and not spend a big chunk of your budget on taxi fares.
All in all just not worth the expenses. Would consider going again if they would lower their prices with 2/3rd. |
Booking with Sawadee.com was quick and efficient as always. |

Rooms were nice, clean and quiet. The staff was nice. The food was good (fairly expensive on the island). The beach was only OK--no real waves--and it is a long walk to a better beach. I would recommend this hotel. |

I canNOT recommend this hotel.
While the hotel is very nice, individual bungalows at the beach and all such, there are several drawbacks:
1. Sandflies ! I got over a hundred bites still itching after a week (and doctor visit to get steroid cream and anti-histamin)
2. High season price, but I was the only guest !!!
3. Although est. 20 people working there very |
