Description
Pudsa Resort has clean and well-designed bungalows, including some right on the beachfront -- though they're not too private, as they get a lot of passing traffic. It's a popular spot, often getting some of the overflow when nearby Tubtim fills up. The rooms vary drastically in quality, from classic wooden bungalows, to grotty dark-green huts. As Tubtim grows to be more up scale, Pudsa offers a reasonable budget alternative. The restaurant on the beach does Thai and western standards.

Ao Pudsa is sweet - the first less crowded less noisy beach heading south, but a short walk to the night action on the first 3 beaches.
My 600b fan hillside second-row bungalow with an interrupted view of beach and sea wasn’t great, wasn’t bad - plenty of room, a big comfy bed, soap/toilet paper supplied, no towel, no sink, good water pressure, clean but starting to look a bit tatty (the adjacent bungalow was being renovated - hey, perhaps mine was next). Grounds were clean but there was a lot of scratchy looking bare earth (Samet has water shortages dry season), paths well lit at night.
Restaurant prices were average budget bungalow, food and service okay. They set up a seafood BBQ each night and had a section with those neat bar mats+candles+cushions set up on the sand.
The 800b front row rockside/sandside trad bungalows are in a great position only 20m from the water, but were all gone. Next time.

We stayed at the midrange bungalows, some in the front have a great view. The bungalow was spacious, nice veranda, but the bathroom was terrible. But for 500 Baht i couldn't complain. The beach is great and there's a nice raft in the sea you can swim to. The parties are on the beach next to this one, only a few minute walk. I had a great time on the island, but i guess you can find better places to stay. (As i will do for this weekend coming)
Alright -

Bungalows look better from the outside than they do from the inside. Some have great beach-side location though. They also rent motorbikes for 100B per hour

In business since 1981, this very popular resort is set at the southern end of Ao Tub Tim and is one of our favourite places on Ko Samet. Choose between the older wooden fan bungalows out back or newer cement and wood ones with large porches up front. The newer ones are more comfortable, but the... more
