• I didn't stay

  Checked out the rooms here so many now it reminded me of Butlins holiday camp.(if you don't know Wiki it). Clean airy rooms but the staff were so obviously unhappy/unfriendly to show us the budget ones 600-1000B which were also right next to the building work. We decided to check out Pudsa bungalows next door see my comments.

• An excellent choice

  After one night in a grimy Haad Sai Kaew resort that shall remain unnamed, Tubtim Resort was a wonderful improvement. An air con room was no cheaper than the Haad Sai Kaew rooms, but it was roomy and clean. The bathroom had flush toilets and a spacious shower. The bed was comfortable and there were no signs of insects or mosquitoes inside. The AC was quite cold. Ao Tubtim is only a short walk along the beach from the busy area, but it is a longer drive that few seem to make. There were only a handful of people on the sand or in the water at a given time. There is a store with basic items and a restaurant/bar that serves up decent drinks and great food at excellent prices. Would be very likely to return. Highly recommended.

• Good beach, good food

  The bungalows are fine, food is good and the beach is nice. Some snorkelling right offshore. Staff a bit crabby but otherwise nice place to relax. Seems to attract half a gay crowd from Pattaya -- that's Thailand.

• Great little spot

  Busy enough to be interesting without being crowded or noisy. Nicely distinct from the other beaches, with its own character. Lovely staff, somewhat eccentric at times. Rooms value for money. Originally intended to stay three nights but ended up staying for five and could have stayed longer.

• Enjoyable

  The first night I stayed at a dirty and dark bungalow but discovered Tubtim the next day and happily moved over. My bungalow here was clean and held for me as promised. I only stayed for one night but it was pleasant

• Not bad

  We didn't make any reservation at Tub Tim, but stopped there and they had one room available. The room wasn't bad, but there were ants that we didn't know about and the next morning my friend's stuff was full of ants. That sucked, but other then that not bad. Not my preferred choice out of places on Ko Samet, but it seemed popular -- and a bit crowded. Still not bad.

• Lovely spot!

  We had a lovely time at Tubtim. The beach there is totally gorgeous, and the huts are lovely, surrounded by all kinds of forest. We phoned to book with no problems, and our bungalow (800 baht) was very well crafted with timber and white washed walls, a great bathroom, and excellent flyscreening. The food was of excellent quality! The only thing is the noise from white sands resort on the next beach really travels, but other than that, it was just perfect.

• Our favourite place too

  It's amazing what different opinions people have. We've been to Samet twice now and think it's lovely. The travelfish reviewer for the island says ''The beaches, though completely overdeveloped... Despite its national park status, the island has been well and truly trashed by developers...'' which I find amazing. Samui yes, but not Samet (and we spent a couple of days on motorbikes and so saw most of the island). As the speed boat goes past the beaches all you can see are green hills and bungalows nestled amongst the trees. As for Tubtim resort we turned up, had a front row bungalow by the beach for 900 baht and thought the staff were very friendly. We'll certainly be returning.

• Friendly beach

  We were worried as we hadn't booked but it was problem free. The restaurant is excellent-food, location,service, price. The sea was warm and pleasant. The huts were basic but adequate. Our friends found it a bit noisy and moved to the next bay which was very quiet.

• Great value

  The newly renovated bungalows at Tub Tim are great value, 600B and they're really clean with nice verandas. You can't beat Tub Tim beach either - lots of shade and a good atmosphere.
