Independent, Phe hotels

"Tubtim Beach is one of the great places in the world for a reclusive holiday. It is a beautiful stretch of sand overhung by tropical rainforest trees. The newly opened Reef Lounge bar and restaurant nearby to Tubtim resort offers outstanding quality of food, drinks and service. Truly a wonderful part of Thailand on the eastern shore of Ko Samet. Not for the party crowd, this is somewhere to come and relax in nature."

"Very friendly and respectful staff- always smiling! Beachfront was amazing - white sand and warm water. Amazing breakfast buffet "

"Great location, especially if you get the top floor with balcony. On issue was the private functions with karaoke late into evenings ( the Sunday one was unexpected) "

"1. Room is nice and clean 2. Staff are really nice and helpful. 3. The resort has a private beach, event it's not really really good for swimming but it's a good place just to chill and relax. 4. It's not on the main road but very close to Sai Kaew beach(5 mins walk or less). The resort is located in a nice and quite area. We've stayed there for 4 nights, the only sad thing is we couldn't stay longer! Definitely will come here again!"

"Nice hotel. Excellent breakfast"

"Not as pictured in the photos, place is run down and in desperate need of renovations and repairs. The room was less than comfortable, with a hard bed, old blanket and worn sheets, room was described as having black out blinds but in fact had tattered rags at the windows that didn’t keep out the light. Door was barely covered the opening letting in all insects and wildlife, was sharing the room with several geckos! Walls cracked, private bathroom was barely a shack. All in all not as described...

"Across from the beach bunch of convenient stores"
