4-Star Hotels in Rayong City

The room was decent, quite spacious. Breakfast was a mix of à la carte and buffet, which was pretty good, though the breakfast area didn't have air conditioning. However, the island's temperature was fine, not too hot. The location is to the right of the pier, very quiet with few people around. The fire show at the restaurant in the evening was fantastic. Remember to bring some cash for tips, as they work really hard!

We stayed for a week in April, in standard room A32. Everything was great. We came for a relaxing vacation, and that's exactly what we got. The hotel's beach was fantastic for me. A morning dip in the sea, then breakfast, and then just chilling on a sun lounger all day. The breakfasts were decent, with soups and a coffee machine offering bean coffee. We ate at the hotel restaurant twice in 5 days; it was pretty good and reasonably priced. You can also walk to 7/11. Vendors walk along the beach selling fruit – we discovered pomelo, which was delicious! Overall, I 100% recommend this place.

If you're coming to Koh Samet, this is the place to stay! Right outside the hotel is a great snorkeling spot. If you have fins and swim a bit further out, you'll see even more fish. Even if you don't snorkel, just tossing bread crumbs by the shore attracts a whole bunch of little fish, so it's fun for all ages. Plus, the fact that it's not crowded is a huge bonus.

Stayed two nights. The room was clean. The blankets/sheets aren't changed daily. There's a coin-operated washer and dryer available. There's a Lawson convenience store right across the street, which is great for quick meals. Breakfast is decent (you have to ask staff for cocoa, no Ovaltine).

This resort is located in Ao Noi Na, which is very quiet and perfect for a relaxing getaway. We booked a beachfront pool villa, and it was fantastic! You can walk straight from your room into the ocean. The breakfast wasn't very diverse. The staff provided good service, especially the front desk personnel who were very welcoming and helpful. However, other staff members were foreigners and couldn't communicate in either Thai or English, which caused a bit of a communication problem. Overall, it's pretty good for the price of accommodation on the island.

This hotel boasts an excellent location on Ao Phrao Beach, with its own private beach. There are only three hotels in this bay, and Ao Phrao Resort shares ownership with Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa. The middle hotel is independent, which means fewer people and a more secluded atmosphere. This area is much quieter compared to Diamond Beach. While Diamond Beach is lively with music, here you'll find more people quietly reading. The rooms are mostly individual bungalows, which is great. They're spacious and cool. You can borrow towels from the front desk for the beach chairs. The hotel restaurant offers stunning sunset views, but you'll need to book a table in advance to get a good spot. It's clean and hygienic, the rooms are cool, there's plenty of hot water, and it's very quiet – though you can't do much about the AC noise. Overall, it's fantastic. The only downside is the average food at the hotel restaurant, but you can't have everything.

The hotel is in a good location, clean and tidy, and the waiters are very friendly. The hotel has a rich breakfast. The facilities are complete, including a swimming pool, gym, table tennis table, sauna and steam bath. Very comfortable. Recommended!

Beautiful resort. Very quiet ( unfortunately). Perfect location for a wedding. We had a small (6 people) ceremony, pictures and a dinner. We had the resort pretty much to ourselves and have pictures and memories to last a lifetime. My only downside was not enough wine selection. Could be due to lack of guests.

We stayed at this hotel in January 2026. We liked the hotel; it's centrally located with markets and Lotus nearby. The hotel has a good gym with a sauna and a hammam, a small pool, and excellent breakfasts. Housekeeping is daily, and slippers, a bathrobe, shampoo, and shower gel are provided. However, there's no toothpaste or toothbrushes, despite it being listed as available. There's a safe in the room, and Wi-Fi works throughout the hotel. There's no free shuttle to the beach, even though it was stated as an amenity on our trip booking. We chose this hotel partly because of that specific feature. Ultimately, you can get to the beach by taxi for about 100 baht, or walk about 5 km. We walked a couple of times through the mangrove forest, but it is quite a distance. Otherwise, we enjoyed the hotel. We thank the hotel staff for their hospitality.

The front desk was unstaffed at night, requiring a phone call to get assistance, which was inconvenient as we didn't have a local SIM card. Breakfast was quite mediocre, and the hotel's appearance didn't quite live up to the polished photos. Our room had only a small window, making it a bit dim with no view. The location was decent though, very close to the beach. The family room was fairly spacious, and we could push the beds together, which was enough for our group of three adults and two children. We booked primarily for the pool, but it turned out to be quite small, only suitable for kids to splash around in. Housekeeping staff were friendly; they'd fold towels into animal shapes if tipped. The shower pressure and overhead shower were much better than in other hotels we've stayed at. What's more, our 10-year-old wasn't charged for breakfast, whereas other hotels charged for the child in a 2-adult, 1-child booking.
