Koh Samet Sai Kaew Beach Resort
Starting more than 1.5 months ago when I booked Sai Kaew Beach resort as a get away trip with my fiance, I checked through different websites/comments saying that it is lovely. Then, I booked "Sai Kaew Beach Relaxation" package - it included two night accommodation in DELUXE COTTAGE, transfer from/to Rayong to the resort, national park fee, 1 set dinner
This was our fourth visit and while Sai Kaew Beach Resort still has the same friendly cheerful and helpful staff, the management needs to catch up with what's going on around them. They're halfway through a development, and it's not clear how that's going to work out.
prices used to be reasonable but it has gone up way too high. yes the style is nice and cool, we like that, but there are many other places to stay now. also they have acquired a few adjacent places so where you used to be able to get a place fairly close to the beach,
Although the hotel is is a lovely position on a great beach, we would probably not choose to stay here again as we thought it was expensive for what it was. It is becoming a little dated although they are building a new wing which looks very nice.
We visited Sai Kaew Beach Resort over Christmas 2008 and had a VERY nice time. THere were four of us: me, wife and six-year-old twins. The resort It's big, huge in fact, and with a variety of accommodation at different prices. We were staying in 2-bedroom bungalow, kind of top-range for the resort.
we had spent , two nights , and i think it was enough . Regardings the rate ( superior for 95 $ ) , room was very simply and impersonnal , we expected to discover something better, and we felt very dissapionted , because we living in thailand , and usually for this price you can found a good place
The end of our two week holiday with Explore was three days at Ko Samet, which rounded off an amazingly varied and at times quite demanding trip. The resort is reasonably well equipped (though the pool is hardly worth visiting, especially given the very close proximity of a warm ocean) and the chalets are clean and adequately furnished. The air-con
This is one of the best resorts on the island..so keep it between us! When booking be clear on where you room will be. The resort has a restaurant and its older rooms (called superior i think) on the beach front and the newer (and excellent ) cottages are off the beach.
I stayed at here with friends for 2 nights in September 08. We booked as a group, and on arrival at the resort had our fair share of problems checking in. At first the reception staff didn't appear to be very helpful but eventually they sorted us out and everyone was happy.
I have been here twice with my girlfriend and i think its a wonderful place, staff were very friendly, the bungalows were really nice, breakfast was good and a beautiful beach, the sea was nice and warm, the weather was fabulous,for us it was quiet peaceful and romantic and i will be going again next year
