Resort Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa  

On Koh Samet’s west coast, right on Ao Prao Beach — a family-friendly boutique beachfront resort in Rayong, Thailand, steps from Khao Laem Ya - Mu Ko Samet National Park. Address: 40/11 Moo 4 Tumbol Phe, 21160 Rayong. Note: a park admission fee of THB 200 per person is payable on arrival, and plastic bags and foam are prohibited on the island.

Clustered on a tropical green slope, the resort features individual air-conditioned cottages and rooms with private balconies or ground-floor terraces, many with sea views and some with outdoor spa tubs. The vibe is relaxed tropical‑chic — think wooden accents, simple modern comforts, minibars/fridges, rainfall showers, hairdryers and satellite LCD TVs. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings overlooking a curved bay of fine sand.

Centered around a superb infinity outdoor pool, the property also offers a children’s pool, swim-up bar, beach bar, world-class spa with massages and body treatments, a fitness center, diving centre and a range of water-sports. Concierge services and babysitting are available (surcharge).

Complimentary Wi-Fi across the property, concierge and luggage storage. Self-parking is available (charges may apply).

Beachfront O Restaurant serves Italian cuisine with ocean views; buffet breakfast is offered daily from 7:30–10:00 for a fee. Unwind at the bar/lounge, beach bar or the swim-up bar, or order room service during limited hours. Local flavors are also featured on the menu.
