This place was awesome. The photos of the surrounding area really don't do it justice. This place has great snorkeling, a peaceful scenery, fun swings, comfortable bed and room, accommodating staff, DELICIOUS food, and all at an affordable price. The views are really nice too. Stay here and visit the surrounding beaches (Samet Ville area which is a 10 min tuk ride away) if you want to explore other areas and spend less time snorkeling and more time swimming. An all-around great spot.

Quiet Bliss”
Right at the bottom of the island last drop off on the boat. A little unsophisticated but oh so lovely. We had a delux beach front chalet band other than NO coffee or tea making facilities it was delightful. This is a real ‘get away from it all’ destination. The food was pretty good in the restaurant and reasonably priced. You can get taxis up to the main town - where you realise life is just too hectic and it’s time to go back!

Beautiful surroundings, very helpful staff”
Beautiful settings, flowers and birds all around. The rooms are simple but clean and all have a good view on the sea. Good food. Perfect for snorkeling and I think the resort do a good job to preserve the coral. Don't forget your water shoes, as it's mostly stones/corals.

Seclude place to stay”
If you want to spend your private time, this resort is quite seclude. Though, there are a few tourists visit but they do not stay here for long. The beach is as where it is located "Coral Bay" no sandy beach to stroll. But you can enjoy the snorkeling to see corals and fishes around the bay. Make sure you wear diving shoes. I like the hammocks under the trees, it is sanctuary. Though, I do not like the bed and mattress. I have to give extra points for the staffs' service mind. They all are friendly, kind and helpful. Foods here are slow. You'd better manage your time to order before the dinner time. There are some water sports equipments for renta/selll, and they are in good condition; kayak, life jacket, snorkel masks, beach balls. If you like to party, this is not your place as it is far from other party beaches and riding the motorbike at night is very dark.

Nice location, but only if you rent motorbike ”
The location is beautiful, but it is opposite side of the island, from the pier. Good for people with motorbike

Nice resort at the edge of Koh Samet”
Very friendly environment, Nice bungalows directly at the beach. Staff very friendly and went above and beyond during an accident, which happened to us. Restaurant food was good, but sometimes a bit slow. Excellent view but far from any 7-11 or other restaurants and bars. If you like a nice and quiet place, then this is the right place for you on Koh Samet

Nice atmosphere but the water on the beach full with rocks”
+ : The hotel is pretty clean and quiet well maintained. Has Private small beach so not too many people around. Many shades from the trees make it even better. The food is okay but not special. Friendly staffs. And i had an awesome 90 minutes body massage. - : The water on the beach full with rocks and corals. Good for snorkeling but not for swimming. Can’t even walk on the water. Not suitable for little kids that like to playing on the water on the beach. - Should put some sign for the name of the food on Breakfast buffet table as not all people can eat some specific food.

Just OK.”
Booked a family room with a beautiful view. Overall gets an OK and not more. No Internet as our room was too far from the nearest WiFi point t which was disappointing Other resorts on the island were better.

Ok but completely overpriced”
In fact nothing wrong with it and nice secluded location. But quite outdated and not the experience you would expect at this price tag. 60-70 eur per night would be more reasonable than the 135 euro we had to pay...

For the birds”
The breakfast buffet was raided by the local birds every morning. The birds would jump on the customer's tables and eat from their plates every time they got up to get something as the staff looked on. When I saw a bird standing on one of the serving spoons and eating from the spoon holder while another stood on the serving plates I said something to the staff and they apologized but did nothing. If you stay at this place and develop a case of salomella which comes from bird feces you will know why

Quiet yet awesome Resort”
Booked 3 Deluxe Seafront Cottages for 3 families (7 of us) at Nimmanoradee Resort, Ao Pakarang Samet Island which is located in the Southern tip of the island. It is quite far from the Samet Island jetty in the northern part of the island, about 35-40 minutes ride by Song-thaew( local pickup bus) to Ao Pakarang at the Southern tip. It cost 70 baht per pax or 600 Baht to charter the whole Song-thaew, which is able to accommodate up to 10 pax. On arriving at the Jetty, one has to pay Jetty fee of 20 baht per pax, and on entering the island an additional payment of 40 Baht per person for National forest conservation fee. You also have the option to take the hotel ferry which takes you from Ban-Phe ferry terminal in Rayong right to the Nimmanoradee Resort costing 120 Baht per pax. thereby saving time and saving jetty fee. The Octagon shape Deluxe Cottage are spacious, modern and beds and furnishings are comfortable. Surrounding are well landscape with plenty of trees, plants and flowers. Lots of birds around and salamander and small animals can be seen around the cottages. Swings and easy chairs are provided for guest use near the beach. For a small fee, the Resort provides Canoing and snorkeling activities. Buffet Breakfast is included. It is good for families and couples who wants to relax away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Located away from Sai Kaew Beaches where the main sea sports activities, bars and seafood restaurants are located. The only setback is the Resort beaches are not ideal for swimming. Lots of rocks, mud and broken corals at the beach.

A tiny and cozy resort in a peaceful location”
My family spent 4 days at Nimmanoradee in a February long week-end. Living in Bangkok, we wanted to enjoy some days at the beach and looking for an island not too far. Koh Samet was the obvious choice being Ban Phe only 2 and 1/2 hours away. We do not love place too animate or luxury resorts, also rbecause we have a less than 3 years old daughter. We found Nimmanoradee on Agoda and falled in love already on the site. The resort is placed at the very end of the island, with tiny and colourful bungalows within the small beach and the forest. We had a garden view bungalows. No lux, but everything you need (good bed, a little hard but we are used living in Thailand, a small tele with dvd that we never turned actually, a frigo, air conditioning, a spacious bath room with warm water and hair dryer) and around 20 meters from the beach. There are hammocks and swings everywhere (Valentina loved them so much), the location is clean and even if all bungalows were full, we never had the impression that there were much people. The beach is small but very clean, unusual in Thailand, water is clear and, even more important, no scooter, boats and similar in the sea. A peace of paradise where you can lie down during the day swinging with your hammock listening the sound of the waves. Amazing! Restaurant was also very good and fair on prices. From Nimmanoradee it takes long to go anywhere. You must come by boat, better private speed boat. Nonetheless, price are correct ( a bottle of Chang beer 55 bath),the food is Thai and well prepared. Fried shrimps and fried bananas excellent. The service is not super but correct, actually very Thai :) and when you are eating with the sound of the waves as music at sunset, is not the service your priority. We will definetely be back to Nimmanoradee in the future. It is now our resort in Samet!

Friendly staffs & great hideaway from city ”
We booked our speedboat at 12noon (confirmed by hotel but end up wait until 2pm). Recommended to take white shark speed boat (join speed boat cost 400 BTH per person), it takes about 30 min to reach Nimmanoradee Resort. We enjoyed ourself very much & food is great especially Thai food, we loved their steam crab (0.5kg at 300 BTH). Pros 1)great location with clear sea water 2)quiet & peaceful 3)delicious local Thai food 4)staffs are friendly 5)Hammocks under trees 6)Not crowded 7)Beach very near to rooms Cons 1)A bottle of water cost me 50 BTH 2)Food is abit expensive 3)Not many entertainment (not recommended if your looking excitement) 4)Bar closed at 11pm & restaurant closed at 9:30pm 5)Limited choices of breakfast (almost same every morning) 6)Many rocks along the beach (kinda painful when going down to beach) Overall, resort is great & we still can find a better resort with the amount $$ we paid. Visit again? (Definitely will but different resort in Koh Samed)

Beautiful hideaway on Koh Samet”
The best feature of this hotel is also (potentially at least) its biggest drawback. The resort is situated on the very southern tip of Koh Samet island and is about 40 minutes drive from the main resort town of Ha Sai Kaew. It's very beautiful and has arguably the best beach on the island. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, then I don't think you could find better. However, if you're looking for nightlife and restaurants, then you have to travel. Both myself and my wife enjoyed our stay, and would certainly go back if we were looking to unwind for a few days, but I don't think we'd stay again as long as we did. Given that the place is so isolated, I think the hotel could do a bit more with the restaurant. The food is ok, and some of the dishes ae very good, but it's not one of the stand out features and has attracted some very negative comments from some of the other reviewers. One last point is the price of taxi's on the island, the fare from the Nimanoradee to Ha Sai Kaew is 600THB, which is expensive for Thailand. So although I'd recommend the hotel, make sure you know what you're getting before you book to avoid being disappointed.

Good service ”
If u want to take a rest from ur messy life ... I recommend here!! Nimmanoradee resort. This place has a peaceful atmosphere ... mayb it far from the other island. This resort has a good service-everybody is very polite; very impressive The food are okayy especially papaya salad is so cool lol A room is clean ... Like the 8 square house ... On the other hand, the transportation has't have too much choices- u can reach this resort by boat(take a lot of time around 1.20 hr) or speed boat (mayb 30-40 mins i guess) By the way, I will come back to this resort again PS: this resort is suit for persons who want to take a rest .... U "will not " disappointed ... If u come here

Lovely Peaceful Hotel”
Our stay at Nimmanoradee Resort was lovely, we enjoyed the area although it was a little out of the way - that was actually what we liked about it because it was peaceful and relaxing and it was fun to rent an ATV to go to and from the hotel everyday to the busier part of the Island. The beach at the hotel was nice and the hotel has facilities for kayaking and snorkelling. The rooms were nice too, they were clean and good sized rooms. We both also really liked the food at the hotel restaurant and we found the staff to be nice and friendly too. My wife and I are very much looking forward to going back there again next year and would recommend the hotel to others too.
