imgLaem Set, established in 1982, was one of the first hotels on the island. At that time there were only a dozen or so, and while this number has mushroomed to 200+, if one counts both small bungalows and big hotels, Laem Set is the only establishment maintaining the original style of Samui, but placing it in a context of fine service and world-renowned cuisine. We still have thatched seafront bungalows, and our suites are all old teak houses, dismantled and reassembled here, with interior redesign to a most comfortable and elegant standard.

Laem Set, with only 25 rooms, is completely isolated from the commercial developments on the big tourist beaches and is an ideal choice for those seeking a romantic and intimate atmosphere.

-: Accommodation :-

 

img The Koh - Tan Suite:-

Based on an old rosewood house found on the nearby island of Koh-Tan then dismantled and reassembled here, this magnificent craftsman's residence has been internally redesigned and is an experience in elegance. A breathtaking entrance atrium leads onto a beautifully furnished lounge with full-length balcony offering stunning views over the Southern Isles to the mainland 30 miles away. Two bedrooms, (ensuite naturally), and extra beds in the lounge if required make it ideal for two couples or the height of luxury for a family. A private swimming pool built into an elevated promontory directly in front of the suite, its isolation from all other rooms and our quality room service make this fine house particularly suitable for persons requiring absolute privacy.

img The Hua - Thanon Suite :-

This house was taken from the local village of "Hua Thanon" and rebuilt here in the direct centre of and right on the beach. Two ensuite bedrooms, both with beautiful ensuite bathrooms, and a further "bunk room" to the rear with two sets of bunk beds, (four children, room accessed from both main bedrooms), make this lovely house equally suited to a single family, (bring the in-laws), two couples or even two families of good friends. It has a small entrance lounge, big covered balcony and each main bedroom leads out onto its own private balcony via sliding glass doors. The view is right out along the beach to the dramatic sculptural rock formation on the point.

img The Ma-Ret Suite :-

This lovely old house was moved from a nearby village and re-sited on its own sandy cove just ten meters from the beach. It has two ensuite bedrooms and a huge attic lounge which can, alternatively, double as a big bedroom for up to eight children. Below, bordered by rocks in a cool, almost cave-like atmosphere, is a day-lounge with beach furniture and showers. With a choice of air-conditioning or fan-cooling in all rooms and a private swimming pool directly in front, this unique house and setting is ideal for a large family or a small group of friends.

img The Honeymoon Suite :-

is in the studio suite style but it is the most remotely located house on the premises and is the only one not to have a separate children's room. The entire interior is open-plan and flows onto balconies in front and to the sunset-side where there is a little tub to cool oneself while sipping a cocktail. This suite is very popular and often books months in advance. It has just received a renovation which includes a hugely expanded balcony to take full advantage of the panoramic views.

img The Studio Suites :-

Each studio is an old Southern Thai house faithfully rebuilt here with interior redesign to a most comfortable and elegant standard. Although broadly similar in size and specification, each is different and is named after the village from which it was removed. They are of open-plan design with the bedroom, living area and balcony flowing into each other and all have a separate bedroom with a set of bunk beds for children. They all have air-conditioning and are also fully screened with fans, giving one the choice of either style of cooling. These stylish and romantic little houses are ideal for either couples or small families.

img Standard room :-

228-234 (The Lotus pond house) These are our most modern standard rooms, beautifully designed, elegant and comfortable each has individual characteristics and its own style.

#228 has a double bed in the main room and set of full-size bunk beds in a  separate area with folding, ventilated wooden screens giving parents privacy from children. There is a children's play-house in the garden.

#229 has two floors. A double bed and the bathroom upstairs and two single beds downstairs.

#230 has a double bed in the main room and set of full-size bunk beds in a  separate area. It interconnects both via a retracting balcony wall and via an internal door with #231 which has just two single beds. These two rooms are often booked as a pair. See special rate and conditions for occupancy by one family on page

#232 has two single beds and #233 has a double bed and set of bunk beds. These two interconnect in the same manner as

#230 & 231 above and. likewise  are often booked as a pair. 

#234 is similar to #228, i.e. double bed and set of bunk beds in separate area but no children's house in garden.

img Seafront standard rooms :-   212-215.

These were our first standard rooms. They are right on the seafront. Some may like this position while others may prefer to retreat to the more private location of some of the other standard rooms in the heart of the resort and away from passers-by on the beach. All these have a double bed and a pair of full-size bunk-beds in the same room.

img Standard rooms :-

224-227.
The pair shown are #224 & 225. These have a retractable balcony-dividing wall which joins the two balconies into  one large gathering space. This pair do not connect internally. The pair to the right, (#226 & 227 -- not shown in this photo), are the same except that they DO connect by an internal door as well as via the balcony.

Each has a double bed and a set of bunk beds in the same room and a bathroom with shower and small tub. These are clean, compact rooms with all facilities and represent good value for couples or families who like to be outdoors a lot and just need a nice, comfortable room to base themselves from. Their proximity to the restaurant and pool, and the fact that they have tiled floors instead of polished wood, makes them a good choice for children, but if parents require privacy from their children at night then they must choose either two adjoining/interconnecting rooms, a studio suite or, perhaps, one of the standard rooms

img The Original Bungalow Village:-

Although small the Thatched cottages, with woven bamboo walls have room service telephones and solar hot water. They are designed with couples in mind and have one double bed with a further single bed in a tiny attic room. We have adjoining bungalows for families. They are fan-cooled and are not screened. One sleeps under a mosquito net. With these rooms we try to realize the tropical island fantasy of a thatched cottage on the beach, beneath the stars. The construction is so open that give the feeling of almost camping-out. This is their charm for some, but for others they may not be suitable. An integral part of the philosophy of Laem Set is to create an interesting gathering of people from all walks of life, not excluding younger persons and not becoming an elitist establishment. These bungalows enable us to offer the experience of Laem Set to persons who appreciate style and quality, but who might find the other styles inaccessible.

img Bungalow Suite:-

These were originally two adjoining bungalows which have been converted to a thatched "suite" with air-conditioning, (they are also screened and have ceiling fans -- the choice is yours). The two bungalows, now joined together into one have a main bedroom with ensuite bathroom, a lounge with another bathroom leading off from it and capability to sleep an extra couple.

There are a further two small attic rooms capable of accommodating two children aged 5 - 7 or one older child each. The recommended occupancy is thus two adults and up to four children with the option of adding a maid/nanny or in-law. Two families  who are really good friends, each with two children, can squeeze in together but at that point you might like to look at one of the larger suites.
