At the end of a rocky path lined with clay lanterns, you'll find the secluded bungalows of Vimarn Samed. Clinging to the sides of a rocky finger of land, the graceful bungalows are designed to evoke a classic Thai style. Though they look small from the outside, the rooms are airy, with high ceilings and tall French doors that slide open onto wooden decks. Furnishings are elegant, with soft white linens, Thai silk accents, and dark wood beds and dressers. The spare but stylish restaurant is set on a pale wood deck, jutting out over the water. Some rooms face Ao Cho while others look towards Ao Wong Duen. One of the most elegant and isolated resorts on the beach. Recommended.
