Located by the southern headland of beautiful Ao Prao beach, on the west coast of peaceful Koh Samed (Samed Island), renowned for its pristine sandy beaches. Only 2.5 hours by road from Bangkok to Rayong, or one hour from the lively resort town of Pattaya, followed by a short sea crossing in our shuttle boat.
Only 28 comfortably furnished villas and cottages, all with views of lovely tropical gardens or the blue vista of the Gulf of Thailand. The roomy villas are simply yet elegantly furnished in natural teak, bamboo and Thai woven fabrics, all with balcony and many with private Jacuzzi.
About the hotel: A lovely hotel on a lovely beach.
Perfect to have a quite and soft time for relax. If you like more action its just to take a car about 10 minutes and you have it. The hotel is very nice and location can not be better. Its a bit expansive to eat and drink at the hotel and what we could see the most of the guests eat at the hotel next to Le vimarn or take the car to the village.
I love that we can have the untouched nature and if we want - the action is just a few minutes away.
Very peaceful and beautiful.
I love it
About the hotel: The hotel room was very good, the beach was fine,snorkelling was poor as the water was rather dirty(in fact it stings your skin when you are snorkelling), and the service of the personnel at the pier was downright lousy. I booked a speedboat from Buddy Tours (NOTE:don t book from them, they are tourist suckers!!!), paid a premium (even though i managed to negotiate till 45% lower than their initial offered price) but was given super POOR service. The speedboat took 15mins but i had to travel by land to the main pier(was promised to embark direct from Le Vimarn)and wait for hours in the end. Normally from Koh Samed to BKK, it will probably take 3-3.5hours in total, but that day i took 8hours!!!
Because of this, i will never set foot onto Koh Samed again, the worst experience i ever had from travelling! Will strongly suggest tourists not to go there unless you have some locals with you. Even places like Hua Hin(for nearby BKK locations), or in the Philippines (for better beaches and cleaner water) will be much more worth visiting.
About the hotel: Good hotel and we had a beautiful decorated room and a comfy bed.
Friendly and very helpful staff.
The breakfast could be a little bit better though (more choices) for such an expensive hotel.
About the hotel: If you are looking for a fantastic place
whith superb service and friendly staff
this is the place. You have three restuarants whith different food and vine so there will bee something for everyone.
We will comeback soon.

About the hotel: Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa. Beautiful location, perfect hotel in every way. Small drawback that due to location, little choice of restaurants in vicinity.
About the reservation service: Good, however, should have mentioned No info that Bkk to Rayong takes 2,5 hrs by taxi, boat service to island only 10 mins!
About the hotel: Second time in vimarn, and like it. Good value off money. Excelent staff. All service 10 points.Next year again. Spa Villas are no:1, only one thing is not well, when the evenig cleaners keep the door open the bugs came in (2 spyder big one)pleace keep doors closed.
About the reservation service: everything goes well, good service.
About the hotel: We stayed one night in one of the spa villas. The location is unbeatable, and we love coming back to this part of Koh Samet. The beach is clean and very suitable for the children, there are even some snorkling opportunities for the children at each side of the beach.
The room, however, left something to desire. As we entered the room there was a bad smell that never went away. It felt like the room was constantly damp, and maybe this is related to the smell as well. Even if the aircon was on all the time, the room always felt damp and wet.
The Italian restaurant was nice, as long as one don t get too irritated by these little details they never get right in Thailand. This time, our pre-dinner drinks arrived well after the food and wine. But after living in Thailand for a while we get used to these oddities. Still the food was good and service friendly despite the things mentioned above.
Anyway, we will come back, but will probably stay at the Ao Prao resort next time.
About the reservation service: Flawless as always.
About the hotel: We did have great time in the resort....
However it was ruined by money stolen in the Gym indise the resort!!!! Very few people were staying(low season),there were few suspects(only certain staff can go into Gym to clean), and we strongly believe that resort staff took the money. Later on we relized when we think about what happened at that time.....
It s not small amount of money, but is more the principle that matters in this situation.
We incredibly DISAPOINTED that this could happen in 5-STAR resort.
We just want to tell everybody who book this resort should be careful their money, and don t take it for granted as you never know what s gonna happen.....!!!!!!!!!
We won t go back again, even if service is good.
