    Can’t fault it.

    Best beach hotel we’ve ever stayed at - understated, so comfortable, clean, great food, lovely staff and perfectly situated.

    There are nicer beaches on the island. This one isn't bad, but it's proximity to the harbor means that it's not as clean and boats can be noisy. But most people would rent a scooter anyway and beach-hop, so this isn't a problem.

    The hotel and the rooms are very new, super nice, and very comfortable. Specifically the rooms tucked away in the jungle are great! Walking distance to the village.

    The Baan Ploy Sea is a stunning hotel set right on the beach in Ko Samet. The room itself was spacious and beautifully presented , and the hotel facilities like pool and breakfast are lovely.

    There is a strange set up in the restaurant with the seats being sunk into the floor and the tables at ground level . This would be very difficult for anyone with mobility issues and also, for the poor staff who had to serve and clear from floor level.

    The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The location was idyllic: peaceful and beautiful, but within walking distance of the busier resort where there were more activities and bars, if desired. The cafe opposite set in the jungle was also stunning and gave wonderful views; there was an option to stay in a jungle lodge there. It was also very easy to book transport to the West side of the island to see the stunning sunset. The wifi connection was very good and sufficient for my brother to complete some necessary work at his laptop while we were there. The transfer from the ferry was particularly smooth and included in the price for the day of arrival and departure- we were greeted on the mainland at the resort's own ferry terminal where our luggage was taken care of and transported to the hotel by tuk-tuk at the other end. It was an exceptional service which made travel to Baan Ploy so much easier. Breakfast is included in the price with plenty of choice: my brother and I had a hearty breakfast and then didn't need to eat until evening. For those who do not want to have their evening meal in the hotel, there is the option of Millie's beach bar, serving a wide range of tasty Thai dishes just 5 minutes walk away where it was lovely to eat beside the sea.

    There wasn’t much so close to the property, after a short walk we got to Saikew beach, which we didn’t enjoy so much.

    The hotel was stylish, and comfortable. I loved the sunbathing area at the front of the hotel, with the sea just a few feet away, a great spot to chill. Food was excellent and the staff were very attentive.

    It’s a little too close to the main pier from our liking. Water however was clean, and the small beach was nice.

    Hotel stood out exactly like in the photos. Restaurant was good. There’s a free ferry service available which arrives 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Extremely convenient.

    Nothing really. I mean yes, there's mosquitos and all but Koh Samet is a national park that's covered in rain forest. Bring an insect repellent spray and you'll be fine.

    The clean beach, the quiet ambience and the cozy facilities are the highlights of my stay. Yes It's pricey, but as they say: you get what you pay for. I was happy staying at this place. Ps: Brown Cabin, omg!!!! THE best chocolate drinks in the world. 😉😉😉

    I think the restaurant is a bit expensive plus you have to apply tax at the end, maybe that’s why not many people eat there at night. Anyway there are plenty of restaurants around

    Perfect location. Bed is so confortable. The beach is clean. Breakfast fantastic. Swimming pool so beautiful Highly recommended

    Baan ploy was a delightful, relaxing place to stay! Staff were warm and friendly. The rooms were clean, tidy and spacious! The breakfast and food at the attached restaurant was delicious! And, there was a very cool little chocolate shop across the road and a short 15min stroll into the town centre making it a fab location! We loved our stay there!!

    Maybe just the bathroom that gives a little humidity smell because it’s completely made out of wood. But this does not impact my 10/10 mark.

    Property is out of the crowded area of the island but still quite close so it’s really relaxing there.

    We stayed at Baan Ploy Sea for two nights, in a jungle view room. The room was spacious and very clean, and very quiet through the night. Probably a better choice than the sea view rooms, which are right next to the little pool where kids start to play early in the morning. The restaurant is great, clearly one of the best on the island, and breakfast was delicious. Staff is very helpful. The beachfront is clean, and that part of the bay isn't too busy with boats. You can rent a paddle board or kayaks. An extra bonus is the incredibly smooth logistics from mainland to the island and back. If I ever return to Koh Samed, I know where to stay.

    You couldn’t swim in the ocean because of crown of thorn urchins. The tables at the restaurant were difficult to use. They would have been a real problem for older people. Low tables with a recess under them to put your legs and feet.

    Large room, very comfortable, nice food. Quiet location. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
