Back at Malibu, Samet.
Pros:

Nice clean room right on the beach, food was good, and the staff were fantastic. Just a bit odd this cost us more per night off season than when we were here 4 months ago?! Still a great resort though.... That's why we're back.

Excellent staff
Pros:

We had an excellent stay in this resort, in no small part because the attentiveness, friendliness and hospitality of the staff.

The room we stayed at was OK, was dark enough to have a restful sleep (this is an important thing in Thailand that many tourists underestimate), and there is a restaurant, a bar, live music at evenings and actually an excellent beach to enjoy.

But as mentioned, the staff was the best part. They were kind and hospitable all throughout our stay, but at one particular evening, when we wanted to watch football, they set up everything just for us to do so, even going as far as subscribing for a broadcasting service on spot (which ofc we paid for at the end).

100% recommend

Au bord de l'eau dans la nature
Pros:

L'hôtel a du vécu, mais c'est agréable de séjourner dans un cadre arboré avec le chant des oiseaux. Son emplacement au bord de l'eau dans une baie charmante et peu profonde est un plus, comme la piscine et l'espace jeux pour les enfants. Le réceptionniste était accueillant et souriant, merci pour l'accueil.

Simple resort for a simple stay
Pros:

The resort is located at one of the most beautiful beaches of Koh Samet. The bungalows were spacious and clean, embedded between beautiful trees and green lush garden. Beds were very comfortable.
Breakfast was a bit poor, so don't expect too much. The staff was young and very friendly.
Just be mindful and check your bill carefully when eating and drinking at the hotel bar/restaurant at the beach. We had quite a big discussion about incorrect billing. The staff at the restarant was quite unexperience. We were served by 3 or 4 different waiters/waitresses, all of whom billed and played diffrently. The food was OK, but not outstanding. Better walk a few metres and meet the nice couple who selles fresh papaya salad and hot grilled chicken at the beach. If you walk a few metres towards the Jetskis, you will find a wondeful restaurant, cheaper and more delicious, right underneath a big tree. There the massages are also cheaper than at the Malibu.
Overall, the location was great and for that reason, we would book the resort again.
The beach offers all you need, from mini marts to delicious food and cocktails, just take your time and have a walk along the bars and restaurants to compare the prices.

Avkoppling i dess bästa form!
Pros:

Trevlig enkel bungalow resort på fin strand. Bar och restaurang med trevlig personal, allt tar dock lite längre tid i Thailand. Flera hotel, restauranger och även några små butiker i direkt anslutning var positivt. Vill du ta det lugnt, sola och bada är detta underbart!

Unterdurchschnittliche Anlage mit viel Lärm nachts
Pros:

Wir waren entäuscht von ersten Zimmer, es ist einfach nur dunkel. Man hat nichts vom Strand gesehen. Um 3 Uhr morgens krähen gefühlt 10 Gackel. Dusche und WC viel zu klein.
Beim zweiten Zimmer (da unzufrieden) gab es kein Warmes wasser zum duschen. Mussten mehrmals den Service aufbieten.
Das Restaurant am Strand ist aber Ok.
Auch sind die Leute net aber von Gastro wenig erfahrung.
Das Frühstück Buffet ist unterdurchschnittlich.
Sauberkeit lässt zu Wünschen übrig

Great enviroment, but not good accomodation and staff
Pros:

The enviroment is beautiful and I loved swimming in the sea. The houses look nice.

But also some negative points which base the 2 stars:
Swimmingpool was full of ants. So everyone avoided being there from our group.
Stuff like drinks, food, restaurants and renting stuff (jetski, sup, surfboard) were quite expensive, even for thai-standards.
A lot of nuisance from Chinese tourists at 6 am in the morning. They were very invasive and even took pictures of us multiple times. Reporting to resort staff didn't matter.
Toilets got clogged up almost daily w/o even using toilet paper.
Resort staff doesnt understand english and some were rude.
I also notice the whole island being filled with garbage by the locals. We as tourists have to pay ticket to enter Koh Samet (and because they claim its a national park), while the locals dump their garbage everywhere on this island. Especially at the back of the resort and on the beaches of Koh Samet.

Pros:

Just an average hotel, nothing to write home about. Arrived around noon, a girl at the reception didn't check me in but she got a lot of rooms available , you can see that by the keys next to her and it’s a low season. Nothing around hotel you need a transportation. Breakfast is very poor.

By. Review for Foreigners by a foreigner.
Pros:

DO NOT stay here if you are a foreigner. The staff calls you a “Farang” and will not serve you. The sheets come dirty. The all you can drink pass is from 6:30 to 9:30 although you won’t see a bartender after 8:45. Bugs all over the rooms. Poorly working AC. They do not clean towels claiming “environment awareness” but like most of Thailand the people use more plastic than a Chinese factory. The accommodations are not worth the stay. They also charge more for foreigners than Thai residents by more than 5x. Food and drink costs 8x what I’ve seen in most of the country.

Pros: great environment, most of the country is stunning. The Food is a solid 7.

A lot of negative review... but that's not the case for us. The Thai People work hard to make your stay here worthwhile! 🙏🏼
Pros:

Plenty choice for the menu, Thai or western food. Airco is good. Surely there is always something that might be better...but overal good experience. The employees work hard to make it a good memory!
After a busy roundtrip this is the place to chillout before going back to work!

Only the location is good!
Pros:

Ok let’s start with Pros:
1. Location: it’s in a small quaint bay. Which makes the beach great for swimming!
The beach is beautiful.
The resort is right at the beach.
2. Some of the staff wants to help

Cons:
1. The room is in tatters. Whatever you touch just falls out. I’m not joking. I touched the grill of the door, it fell.
I tried to get shampoo out of the attached box in the washroom, it fell down.
2. The mattress. Omg. It’s spring mattress, and after the Thai massage sleeping on it takes away all the good things.
3. Breakfast, is at best average. Nothing including coffee is hot.
