Not quite sure what it is about this place but it seems to lack something, maybe it's a bar where guests gather at sunset and night-cap time??? The location is beautiful, gardens tended daily and most of the staff are very pleasant, the lady on reception (Fon, I believe) is a star but still there is nothing to draw us... More

We stayed for 3 nights on our third visit back to Le Vimarn. If anything I was even more impressed by the staff and service this time. And having recently stayed at large Sofitel and Le Meridien resorts in Thailand (which were also very good), I think for a couple at least this hotel is easily as good - and... More

Firstly, if you are travelling from Bangkok to Le Vimarn (Ao Prao Beach), please note that it takes 3-4hrs to get to the pier, by taxi or bus. From the pier, the last "complimentary" ferry to the hotel leaves at 4pm, not 5pm as we were told on the internet. If you miss the ferry you will be ripped off... More

very very relaxing, very friendly people, you really get the feeling of being on holiday....very clean beach....food is very good and dining on the beach is amaizing...very good for kids too, very safe for them. Service is unbelivable, manager ther, mr Payab Iamjuy is the best...i would definetly go back, sent friends over there already and had same feelings

Overall I am pleased to stay here...with all the facilities and of course the main purpose which is to swim and relax on the beach. Compare to Hua Hin, koh samet sand and sea is far above average with its white sands and clear blue water. The hotel got "the" location which I give them full score for that. The... More

This was my second stay at Le Vimarn and I must say it was a good choice again. The beach is splendid and the staff is quite helpful. Being on this resort allows you to really relax and enjoy the lovely beach and surroundings. And only 15 mins away by ca to the main action packed beach. The food is... More

very nice and comfortable bungalows (ask for for one of the new ones). very location (best beach in Samed island) and quiet. Service needs a big improvement as the staff is most of the time disappeared on the beach area. Overall, is a great place for a 2 day getaway from bangkok, but if you have more time I would... More

Trip Advisor reviewers tend to list what went wrong, rather than what went right (see many past reviews of this place). I can happily say that we had not a single issue here during 5 days at Le Vimarn that is worth mentioning to other holiday makers. Ultimately, this place is well worth the room rate and we had a...

My husband and I are from the USA, but currently live just outside of Pattaya. My mother is here visiting and, at the last minute, we decided to book a trip to Koh Samet. I searched the internet and found Le Vimarn Cottages and Spa. We booked the family villa (as we have a 1 year-old) and loved everything about... More
