How was the booking process handled?: Efficient and reliable
Other comments about the hotel: We found the bungalow charming with quality decor and a view of the sea. The service was excellent. The resort is on a pretty bay, but a little far from the main beach on the island which has a wider choice of cheaper eating options. Highly recommended all the same.

How was the booking process handled?: Booking went smoothly.
Other comments about the hotel: Wonderful location. Staff excellent and so attentive.However, although we had paid for our return crossing from the mainland at the time of booking, the resort was not paid this amount and tried to charge us again.

Other comments about the hotel: Was I in a dream?? This place was AMAZING. My boyfriend and I spent two days here after a few days of being in Bangkok and it was such a nice vacation from our vacation. The service is impeccable. The food was great. The ocean was clear as day. I mean, really it was perfect. I have ZERO bad comments. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: Ao Prao resort is one of the more expnsive beaches on Samet & it isn t justified. The room was old but reasonably clean. Breakfast was just your standard thai breakfast buffet.To do any of the water sports it was ridiculously expensive.Only good thing is thatbecause there are only the 2 resorts on the same beach, there aren t too many people around. Better off staying on sai kaew beach where the beach is better, more accom choices & there are plenty of reastaurants.

Other comments about the hotel: This Beach is beautiful, superb location, but the resort itself is overpriced and not comparable with any which I saw in Thailand for rate 5000THB/per night. If you can have it for less then 3000, you can think about it, in other case forget about it. Why? Rooms are very dark (there is no enough light inside), a lot of stairs in upper rooms, mosquitos/flies was a nightmare, you cannot seat a while on your terrace - it s useless even during the day. Pool is small and water is strange (non-transparent), looks dirty. The prices in the resort are not doubled, as you can expect in isolated beach, but 4 times higher then in the main village.Generally comment about Koh Samed, island is a little bid dirty in comparison with other islands in Thailand, Ao Prao beach is cleaned by the stuff daily, but this help only for a while, after some time rubbish come again from the sea. I never saw such dirty place in Thailand, it s sad :-( [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: The rooms were even nicer than shown online. Basic, yet very clean. Fairly private. Nice and quiet location. Nice beach area. Service was slow though and the food was average. We thought the pricing was a bit high. Overall a pleasant stay. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: The hotel was great!! Good room. good views, good restaurant, very pleasant staff. But be aware that you are in a luxury enclave - the rest of the island is drowning in garbage, overcrowded an in case of a short but heavy rain shower a huge mudhole. Even authorities have become aware of that problem! No need to hire a scooter for driving around - you will be disappointed! [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: The Ao Prao resort is really overpriced. The service from the staff, breakfast, rooms (especially the bathroom which smells),and housekeeping are not on a level what you can expect for what you pay. That really is a shame because the location is perfect.

Other comments about the hotel: The hotel is made of several little houses that have a wonderfull view on the sea, which is only 20 meters from your porch. The prices for food and drinks are above what you are used to in Thailand, but there are enough other places you can go to that are cheaper.Service is very good and flexible; by mistake we booked the wrong dates but when we arrived one week early they made no big deal of it and offered us the same accomodation.

Other comments about the hotel: We changed instantly to La Vimarn Hotel because there is no mobile connection in the rooms of Ao Prao Resort.Beach is very nice and clean, also the sea. Restaurants are overpriced (everything on Ao Prao Beach is from same owner), no really chance to go out. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: The service is great. I immediately get my reservation after the phone call.
Other comments about the hotel: The room is not as luxury as I thought it would be but it is not that terrible. The bathroom could need remodeling. I enjoy the location of the beach because it is not as crowded and scenery is great. The draw back to this is that there are only few restaurants around and the price for the meal is little more expensive.

How was the booking process handled?: The booking service worked well.
Other comments about the hotel: Don t stay here!!!! We did not have a very good stay at this hotel. The location is excellent but the service was very bad. Our original room was good but there was an animal in the roof (lizards or rat) which stopped us sleeping at night. I informed reception and they said they would check it out, but they did nothing. Later that day the animal was still making noise and I called reception again. Eventually somebody came and reluctantly agreed to move us to another room. This room was appalling. It was dark and dingy and the bed was broken. Again I complained to reception and eventually they agreed to move us to another room which was an upgrade for one night. This had been available all the time but they did not want to give it to us as it was a higher grade than the room we had originally booked. For the remaining two nights we got a room that was similar to the original one we had minus the animals in the roof. When we tried the shower in this it did not work. Again we called reception and they sent a maintenance person to fix it - which took about an hour. Overall, this resort is overpriced and focussed on getting as much money as possible from its clients rather than providing a good service. this is a pity as it is in a good location, but they seem to have lost track on what is important in a hotel - treating the guests well.
