Esther Welch 2009-06-13	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach The bungalows were fairly basic but with thai charm. Very clean and staff were both efficient and friendly. Any requests were dealt with immediately and staff could not have been more helpful.There were buggies available at all times to take guests to the restaurant from their bungalows. The swimming pool was very close to the bungalows and was kept very clean. The restaurant only served thai food...no western food at all but there were always BBQs further up the beach.The air conditioned cafe on site was lovely and served coffees and cakes etc but was fairly pricey. The internet was very expensive 300 bahts an hour and was much cheaper outside the resort.I would recommend using a speedboat to get to and from the island rather than the ferry boat which was difficult to board.The beach was beautiful, white sand and clear water. We enjoyed our stay in June 2009.	Booking service was very prompt and efficient
Dr. Vergel Jay Bautista 2009-05-07	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach This is our second time at Sai Kaew Beach Resort and no doubt that we will stay again in this resort for our next visits to Koh Samed. We stayed at a deluxe room/villa which has a very stylish design. The rooms are very clean, complete with amenities and staff are very efficient and helpful (they pick you up or bring you on request from/to your villa). Perfect for a pampering vacation! Breakfast selection was also great. Will try the superior deluxe rooms next time.	Very efficient. Thanks to K. Koi for the utmost assitance to us especially on our extension request.
Sirirat Artawekul 2009-05-03	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach (1) Staffs were too busy -At check-in and check-out were hectic, stuffs were too busy to tell anything. It was the long holidays anyway, we must admit this? (2) Decoration -(#935-936) Over the bed, decorated with local Thai fishing appliances i.e. lorb, sai etc. These stuffs made from bamboo, caused dusty white powder from the insects inside. (2) F&B - There are 2 breakfast venues - The resort had no restriction and guest can eat at either of it. Thanks for this. - Service skill at the main restaurant by the sea (breakfast, lunch & dinner)was under expected. Don t get me wrong, they are nice but still need some training or more staffs. At breakfast, it is better to get your own coffee than wait for it. - If you have to eat here, I would recommend European food, not their recommended Thai dishes. (4)Kitchen or Housekeeping staffs While walking pass Kitchen or H/K staffs show more respect to guests than front line staff (green polo T-shirts). They stopped and waited until we walked pass.	1) No images on your site. View hotel images from your website or brand website, we have one expectation. But the room that I was brought to was the 4-month newly renovated wing stylish and feel like staying in Bangkok! (#935-936). (2) Sawadee Service via 3 channels (2.1) Via email (2.2) Via mobile phone (2.3) One2Book Chidlom Yes, I was really happy with your service and follow ups. Except, I got the map of Paradee at One2Book, not Sai Kaew. I realized this next morning, then contact via email and was told that oh, it is close to each other . It may be, but it is not mention there. At the end, the correct map was sent via email.
Jackie V. 2009-05-03	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach I stayed in Superior-Deluxe Area (The one around the pool). The room was very nice and clean. However, there were so many flies and termites. When I woke up and opened my curtain in the morning, I found tons of termites sticking to my windows and a lot of them lying on my balcony (scary). The breakfast area was full of flies. I did not take any bread because there were at least five flies flying around the bread and sticking on it. When eating, I also need to wave my hand to drive the flies away. I m not staying here for a second time.	I wanted Superior-Deluxe with Double bed. However, the option in SAWADEE has only Single and Twin. So, I called SAWADEE staff. she said if I want to book for two persons, I need to choose Twin and write down that I want Double bed in the request box. I did as she said. However, when I arrived at the hotel, the hotel staff claimed that I chose Twin on the website and Sawadee request the hotel to book for Twin bed. So, I cannot get double bed because they were full!! Anyway, on the second night, the hotel staff changed my room from Twin to Double bed. Two thumb up for the hotel staff! But Sawadee, you need to improve!

Terry & Jeannie USA 2009-04-15	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach This was our third trip to Thailand. We have stayed in Puket, Chang Mai and Koh Chang. In Bangkok we have stayed at the Davis which is awesome. All of our stays were booked on Sawadee.com. Saikaew Beach Resort was the most expensive of all the places we have stayed in Thailand. We did not feel it was a good value for the $. We were on the more expensive side of the resort and our room air conditioner leaked all over the floor and clothes the first night. There were termits in the wood floor, so we had to keep a towel over that spot. Most of the staff were not as friendly as in other places we have stayed. We had one dinner at the resort, and it was poor enough that we didn t eat there again. The breakfast each day was good, however! There were two beaches...the one near our cabins (we had 2...our kids and grandkids were with us) was rocky and smelled like dead fish. The other beach we had to pack up and take a fairly long walk with 2 babies every day. It was a beautiful beach with white sand. Lots of restaurants up and down the beach. We would not go back to this resort....we felt it was entirely too expensive for what you received.	As always, booking with sawadee.com is easy and hassle free!
Leslie JC Wong 2009-04-02	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach Both of our rooms was clean. However, in room 202, the tape water kept running and we could not turned off the tape for the entire stays. Also, one of the bed got bed flees and I got bitten all over my body. The staff were friendly. After arrived on the island, we found out and compared the hotel rate, it s quite expensive compared to other hotel in similar category. From Sydney, Australia.	Prompt and quick turnaround. In general, I am quite happy with Sawadee.com.
Wan Wai Leung Alain 2009-03-14	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach It s a nice hotel and appreicate their amenities such as shower gel & shampoo after change a new packing.Besides, I make a reservation as 3 person, however they just arrange a double bed for us.	Good efficiency.
Liza Maker 2009-03-08	Saikaew Beach Resort, Koh Samet, Saikaew Beach We stayed 3 nights on the Deluxe side (the more quite side) of the resort and it was really great. The Deluxe area is very peaceful and quite and yet you can walk just 5 minutes over to the other side and have access to all the restaurants on the beach. Last time I was at Samet I stayed at Jep s which was great while backpacking. 4 years later with some more cash in the pocket - it was definately worth the extra money to stay at this resort.	Couldn t guarantee us a separate bungalow instead of a room, even though they were very service minded - but the resort took care of that at the arrival and we got very good bungalows.
