Excellent 3 night stay in a budget friendly guest house ideal location for main beach on island very quiet

Perfect budget spot on Koh Samet. Old fashioned Thai style Guest House...like staying at your grandma’s. Great quiet location but only 5 minutes walk to stores, restaurants and bars on the village, and 12 minutes from spectacular public beach. Room basic but comfortable. Mostly quiet other than one night when a young family was in next room...but they went to sleep early! Room has typical Thai bathroom where shower is the whole room. Air Conditioning worked great. Great atmosphere.

Location : It was pretty close (about 10 mins walk) from the Nadan pier though it took a bit of finding to get there. Although it was near the beach, there is a resort in front of Miss Hong House and one had to walk down the street and do a left turn / detour to get to the beach. It wasn't that far, but it was a little cumbersome for a lazy me...!! If one walks down the street (without making a left detour to the beach), one reaches the "village", with lots of eateries, shopping, massage and services. It was pretty convenient considering there were two 7-11s right at this junction. The owner was friendly, helpful and provided with tips on the places to go etc. I was not able to make it in time for the 6.30pm check-in and gave her a tinkle. She waited till 8pm for my arrival before she could "knock off" for the day.

Basic room in quiet area, not enough electrical outlets without unplugging the TV and box, only thai channels on TV anyway. Friendly owner.

ok hostel in 5 min walk away from the beach. They are renovating and my room was still a bit retro, but couple of the rooms looked already really ok. Staff was super nice. Clean and reasonable prized place. WIFI worked really well

If you can get the room on the top floor (two double beds) I highly recommend it, because there is a great patio up there that you basically have to yourself. The rooms are basic, but clean and have the essentials you need, including a mini fridge. They have scooters to rent right at the hotel and a store that sells drinks next door. It's a bit expensive for this type of hotel in Thailand, but that's probably because it's on an Island.

Very quiet zone, but close to port and beach. The staff was really nice, helpful and always available! We could rent motorbikes directly at the reception.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Arranged a snorkelling trip for us, called a taxi when requested. Hotel was clean, bathroom shower had a small glass partition but a shower curtain or sliding door would keep the bathroom drier. No sitting area other than room. Would recommend this hotel for couples.

Place run by an old lady and her family, lovely people.

The real hotel is not as good as advertised in many aspects. The bed sheets are a bit wet.

Everything was fine. The room was so cute, clean and comfortable. Staffs were always good and friendly. 3 mins to the main beach, so it was very convenient. Next time I go there, I'll stay this house again. 【日本語】 全てがよかったです。部屋は可愛らしく、清潔で快適でした。スタッフさんたちはいつも笑顔で接してくれて温かい方たちです。メインのビーチからは3分ほどで行けます。サメット島に行くときはまたここに泊まります。
