    At a quiet part of the island, Viking is near a sunset viewpoint, three restaurants and a few swimming and snorkeling spots. Staff are super friendly and they provide greatly assistance from motorbike renting to bus and taxi information.

    It has a private beach with all different equipments like snorkelling mask which is really convenient. The staff are super friendly and go out of the way to help you. They even went through the trouble of finding us an island hopping package that included snorkelling and everything as we requested per our need. The food as well is super delicious (specially the padthai). Lots of activities available to do at the resort itself so you are always occupied with stuffs to do.

    Beautiful area with a clean beach. I think it's perfect for a short stay if you don't drive a bike and aren't going to explore the island. Breakfast was included. Also, the staff was very helpful and friendly. There are some restaurants around where you can have a dinner.

    While the property is undergoing some renovations this did not impact on our stay but might put other people off.

    I wish the restaurant did not close so early. And the light setup is cold low energy lights so not so cosy at night as it could have been.

    This is probably one of the most relaxed and tranquil place on Koh Samet. It's not by any means a 5 star resort, but its absolutely 5 stars for your soul! The personal is amazing and adorable. I love this place!

    The breakfast was average, some days were better than others but overall not awful. Our rooms was only made up once in 4 nights which was a shame as it got very sandy.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful, they couldn’t do enough for us! They helped with taxi hire, bike rental, we bored snorkels etc The resort is quiet and peaceful, there is a lot of space outside to relax and play games.

    It was perfect for me, but the rooms are bare bones, and I could imagine it might be loud if you had a neighbor in the adjoining room. The beds were a little firmer than I like, but again, for the price, you really can't beat the price and location.

    The location was terrific. It was Quiet and beautiful. Tucked away next to the beach, it avoided the loud bars and drunk tourists downtown. The staff were beyond friendly. When I left, I felt like I was leaving a family friend's house.

    It was a little bit confusing to find a reception when you arrive, it's located down near the sea so it would be nice to see a sign, pointing where to go :) Also there is a house construction now, right in the middle of the hotel's area, which bothered my view a little, but hope it will be over soon :)

    It's a very cozy hotel, with nice area around and great restaurant. There's also an own small beach for swimming and a common area, filled with hammocks, swings, sunbeds etc. The room is beautiful and has all what you need. I stayed only one night, but I wish I could make my vacation there much longer!

    Construction is ongoing although it did not affect us, there was no noise at all. The rooms were super clean but also pretty basic. We loved it all the same

    Great beach access. Quiet location and basically secluded part of the island. Really great for a relaxing stay

    There are lots of mosquitoes, which is expected in the location - the team did put out mosquito repellents out each night & morning.

    The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room was simple but very clean and comfortable. It was right on the beach with a few great places to eat only a short walk away. We made great use of the dartboard.

    There was no baby bed available while this resort was in the list of hotels with arrangements for kids. Maybe a bug in the criterias on the app because when we checked it later it is clearly stated in the description that they don't have baby bed. They still provided us with a solution for the baby and she slept well, but it was not ideal. The resort was also under construction so we had issues for the baby to have a nap during the day (noisy). But the service and the team largely compensated these inconveniences.

    The team is exceptional, they are very helpful and super friendly, especially with kids.The resort had other rooms available (bigger and more recent) so they gave us the choice for the rooms when we arrived, very nice gesture. The location is good and the chill spaces in front of the sea are beautiful. Everything we ate was excellent and not expensive.
