Ao Prao Resort
Central Thailand
Ao Prao Resort
Ao Prao Resort is one of the most relaxing places to stay on Koh Samet. Set on the quiet shores of Ao Prao Beach, the resort enjoys a lovely location with soft white sand, clear turquoise water and a peaceful atmosphere that feels far removed from the busy city, despite being only a few hours from Bangkok.
The rooms are spread between the beachfront and the lush hillside, giving guests the choice of staying close to the sea or surrounded by tropical greenery. We particularly like the resort’s laid-back feel, two beachfront swimming pools and the opportunity to enjoy a traditional Thai massage while listening to the sound of the waves.
Dining at Breeze Restaurant is another highlight, with a good selection of Thai favourites, fresh seafood and international dishes served right by the beach. Overall, we feel Ao Prao Resort is a great option for couples and families looking for a comfortable and easy-going beach escape in Thailand.
