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.

Nothing. Beach is slightly nicer on the east coast but would rather stay here for the quiet and comfort

Amazing secluded spot. Great food. Pool setting perfect. Really the best area to be in for a quiet stay. Free bikes were a dream

I prefer western breakfast but it was OK

Nice private beach resort Staff really nice August and September are excellent as this sea is calm due to winds come from west this season Quiet area far from l others and close to the pier Easy to rent scooter and go around the island

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.

Very lovely hotel! If there was a gym it would be 5*

If you go there with kids do not hesitate to take some water shoes to avoid injuries to the feet due to shape stones or sharpe dead corals.

Really super great place. Very quiet place. Super good location. Two types of rooms: those exposed to the sea and those on the garden. The second ones are so big, peaceful. The hotel has a café hidden in the jungle with a very modern design. Once again the place is wonderful for grabbing a coffee while looking on its emails or just reading. And what about the restaurant of the hotel? Just one of the most excellent of the island. Really. breakfast is good. We really enjoyed the place.

Reception staff need more training. When there was a lady from the Samet resorts there it was ok but if just the Baan Ploy staff they really struggled with basic questions. We also asked if they accepted American Express and they said yes. We then asked 'are you sure' and they said yes. When we handed over the card they then said 'no American Express' kind of comedic but also frustrating. Breakfast was average at best. No fresh juices, awful coffee and service was chaotic. We cancelled the order on second day and left as they forgot to process it. Unfortunately some whiff of sewage from the beach too but not sure the hotel can be blamed for that.

New rooms, very clean, easy access and very good restaurant food for lunch and dinner.

The coffee machine at the breakfast could be improved. There was only one chair on the balcony.

You have to make one order for the main dish in their menu for your breakfast. I only wish that we could order one more on the menu to let us have more varieties of food to try.

All the facilities in the hotel are exceptional. Enormous and comfortable bed. Great sea view and location (11 mins walk from the place you get off the boat). Caring and helpful staff.

I know its a seafood restaurant, but some veggie options would be great

On arrival Ying kindly showed us rooms and helped with our choice a lovely Seaview room. All the restaurant, cleaning staff and reception went out of their way to be helpful.

Buffet breakfast was good but the first time I got the standard breakfast at 11 am. That was pretty basic.

We got the room at the seafront with a great terrace.

The price of the food was a little bit too expensive.

Private beach The food was so good Bed was comfy Good staff

Not really a dislike. Just, there are a lot of steps for someone with poor mobility.

The position on (almost over) the beach is perfect. Better than, for example, the four star hotels on Ao Phrao. We stayed over Christmas and were delighted there was not any bogus Christmas bonhommie.

Noise from the pool and common corridor could be heard. Somewhat repeated breakfast items.

Very friendly staff
