Tok's Little Hut
Very friendly - great spot
Ao Hin Khok, Ko Samet
Rayong Province
Tel: (038) 644 072-3
Description
Tok's has smallish wooden huts climbing up the hillside behind the reception -- watch out as the climb can be treacherous, and the wooden steps up to some of the huts are falling apart. Some of the huts higher on the hill have a reasonable view and despite being recently renovated, some are showing their age -- a sign of just how popular this place is. The simple blue huts are charming from the outside, though most are a bit worn on the inside, and some of the bathrooms are a bit dark and grotty -- the water from the taps is often dirty and brown. The rooms have large beds with clean bedding, and some of the rooms have French doors with glass panels opening onto the balcony. The staff are friendly and a decent beachfront bar is home to lots of Thai gigolos preening for holidaying girls, though the restaurant is awful. Drinks specials and fire shows nightly. Given the prices and location, this is one of the best no-frills budget spots on the island. This place is strictly for walk-in business -- no reservations accepted. Recommended.

If you want a nice beach, you needn't go down to the south of Thailand, the southern beaches don't beat Koh Samet's! Tok's was great value (we paid 200B a night), the beds are enormous, could fit three or four! As we were in the cheaper ones up the hill, we sometimes had a problem with water pressure, but managed to wash our hair everyday (cold water). There's a lot of mosquitoes up the hill (same for the other two guesthouses on this beach), so take the usual precautions.
The beach has a great atmosphere, and good late bars. Restaurants are good (there's a lot of mosquitoes in Tok's restaurant at night so we went here in the day and Jep's in the evening). There's dogs on the beach like everywhere in Thailand but these are quite friendly and rabies free which is reassuring.
All the staff are extremely friendly here and at the other places on the beach. This place is the perfect beach holiday. Only negatives, the ubiquitous mosquito, and the hill is steep and dark at night so not suitable for people with impaired mobility and bring a torch!

Ao Hin Khok, Ko Samet
Hidden away above and behind the post office, which also acts as the reception, Naga Bungalows is a long-running backpacker favourite with a host of very basic huts stacked up the hill. As management puts it, there's no corporate rubbish available at Naga. The same can't be said about the hotel... more
