Koen van Wielink 2008-05-01 until 2008-05-04	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na Although a nice resort, it is not worth the money spent. It is a nice quiet area, but the 4 to 5K baht that they charge is just too expensive. The resort itself closes at 10pm (didn t mention this when we dropped off our keys, so came home at 10.30 to a closed reception without our room keys...), there are no tv s in the rooms, no bathtub, just the private outdoor shower (not always convenient when it rains) and generally there is just not much to do at or around the resort. The food at the restaurant, although not bad, is too expensive for what you get, and better food can be had much cheaper at other parts of the island. Has to be said that the service of the staff is generally good and friendly. The resort is far away from the main bar/restaurant area at Had Sai Kiew/Ao Phai, and with a taxi between 200 and 300 baht 1 way, it s inconveniently located if you don t want to spend the whole day at the resort and not spend a big chunk of your budget on taxi fares. All in all just not worth the expenses. Would consider going again if they would lower their prices with 2/3rd.	Booking with Sawadee.com was quick and efficient as always.
Chad W Bramble 2008-03-31 until 2008-04-03	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na Rooms were nice, clean and quiet. The staff was nice. The food was good (fairly expensive on the island). The beach was only OK--no real waves--and it is a long walk to a better beach. I would recommend this hotel.	No problems
Markus Kammerer 2008-02-27 until 2008-02-29	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na I canNOT recommend this hotel. While the hotel is very nice, individual bungalows at the beach and all such, there are several drawbacks: 1. Sandflies ! I got over a hundred bites still itching after a week (and doctor visit to get steroid cream and anti-histamin) 2. High season price, but I was the only guest !!! 3. Although est. 20 people working there very slow service during dinner (esp. drinks) 4. Overall some more maintenance necessary, especially the wood terraces and such did not see paint or nuturing oil for years 5. Sea view bungalow means that you can view the sea by looking at photos when you are in your room. Only beachview bungalows are really nice. 6. The rooms are way too small for the high price. Not even TV or radio.	smooth as always
Syryi 2007-11-16 until 2007-11-28	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na Very small hotel with small and old rooms, towels are not good, a lot of mosquitos and insects at the beach. But stuff is very friendly and restaurant is good.	good
Claudia Wohlgenannt 2006-10-30 until 2006-11-04	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na very charming and nice resort- we had a great time there! i would recommand it for couples who want to spend a quiet and romantic time together! transportation was no problem - you can rent a scooter to go to diamond beach or you take a taxi! lima coco and ao phrao resort are also nice but the beach is quite small there!
Peter Tee 2005-10-29 until 2005-11-04	Mooban Talay Resort, Koh Samet, Ao Noi Na The resort was pretty ok. I would recommend taking the deluxe bungalow which is next to beach. The resort is located in the end of the beach in the northern side of Koh Samet. The beach is good and very quiet. Swimming pool area was good, however, the disadvantage was that the sun goes behind the trees quite early in the afternoon, like 3:30 PM. Overall the location of hotel is not the greatest. It is about 20-30 minutes walk from the nearest village Na Dan. It was very difficult to get transportation from the resort to the village. Also when coming back the taxis were asking ridiculous high prices for returning (like 200 bath for 5 minutes drive). The restaurant was good. Only thing we missed was nice barbeque on the beach. The biggest problem during our stay were the insects and mosquitos. Most of the guests were bitten quite badly. It is likely it is common problem all around Koh Samet island. However, it would be good to have mosquito nets around the bed. Last but not least - open-air shower was great experience!	Worked well. No problems at all.
