After all, the beaches are the best. I am happy to swim in such a beautiful sea. The food is also good. I would have been happier if they had bottled beer.

We had a wonderful time in Au Prao. The setting was lovely, the sea was great for swimming, and we loved Teddy singing in the evenings.

10/10

Was the perfect spot to unwind after a crazy few days in Bangkok. Beautiful quiet beach. You don’t even have to leave the resort as there is a few restaurants on the strip to choose from. But if you did want to you can easily take a taxi into the township where there is so much to explore. Note Ao Prao also has its own private speed boat & pier to arrive on.

Full of charm in a peaceful tropical setting with such lovely warm staff. Room spacious and had all you need. Great views and fab Thai food. Would definitely return and recommend. I thought it was good value for money. One warning - be sure to go to the Ao Prao Pier (specifically for guests of Samed Resorts) when you are on your way, as if the taxi driver doesn’t know this, he might take you to the wrong (super busy) general pier where you get hustled into buying probably the wrong boat transfer!

The beach makes you feel like you're in paradise - very clean and beautiful. Our room was very spacious and clean. You can exchange money directly in the hotel which was very helpful. We really liked the breakfast buffet with the soup station. They varied the warm dishes also from day to day. What we missed was a station to fill up water during the day. You only receive 2 bottles of water per person per day which isn't enough on hot days. For the price we payed they could offer unlimited free water during the stay. We stayed in smaller not so exclusive hotels before and they all had unlimited water for the guests. The prices for food and drinks in the resort are too high so that we only ate there 2 from 6 nights. The other nights we had dinner outside and also snacks for lunch because it's nearly double the price then outside. Walking in the centre takes about 20 minutes.

It suited us the most because we’ve much needed peace & quite. The location is not for party animals, however it’s not far from all the action areas where you need a taxi & front desk would be happy to help. All staffs were willing to help. There were 2 individuals stood out the most were Izzy & note. The weather was so good without any rain. The resort is on the west side of the island and you can enjoy beautiful sunsets almost everyday. This is the driest part of Thailand even on raining season. We are already planning to go back next year.

We stayed here for the 2nd time after some years. The speedboat brings you fast to hotel at certain times with a price of 600 THB p.p incl. return. Good things are that the place is at the beach and it is quiet with clear water and beautiful sand. Rooms are ok with basic needs and wifi works. Downside is that food and drinks are very expensive compared to the prices on the other side of the island and also compared to other destinations in Thailand. The quality of the food was not above average. Also the services are totally rediciously priced - a normal 1 hr oil massage is 1200 THB++. No wonder that the massage place was totally empty every day. There is also no gym which should be at this level of room prices. With this pricing we will most probably not any more come for the 3rd time as the quality/price -ratio is not good any more. We do enjoy very much of travelling and are Platinum Members of One World so enjoy the luxury quite often and have a very good sense what is market priced and what not.

Vi fick uppleva några fina solnedgångar vid Ao Prao. Stranden är fin men rätt så smal vid högvatten. OK pooler som alternativ. Det finns ett par restauranger i Ao Prao fast utbudet är rätt begränsat. Bra ställe om man söker lugn och ro.
