I love this place, even in the rainy season, which it definitely was.
We got a fantastic rate because it s the off-season and the hotel
s pool was closed for construction (who cares when you ve got the
whole ocean to swim in?) The only downer was that there was noticeably
more trash on beach after the tides. We saw none of this two years
ago (though the sea was perfectly calm then). I really love the little
island and I hate to see become polluted. |

The Hotel was OK but I decided to upgrade to the more up market resort
just at the end of the beach Le Vimarn. This was expensive, but in
my mind still value. I will go back, but have to say the dissappointment
was not the hotels but the quality of the sea water. 3 years ago it
was crystal clear, now it is cloudy and going exactly the same way
as I have seen the main lagoon in Koh Samui. When will Thailand learn
that a sustainable future is in policing developments and maintaining
the environment, not poluting pristine environments with get rich
quick developments and then looking for the next place to destroy.

This is our second time here! And I m sure we ll come again! From
the moment one arrives to the pier everything goes smoothly, well
taken care of! The quality of the restaurant needs to improve, especially
considering the prices! Don t hesitate on eating elsewhere! |

Tropical paridise. Had a garden cottage with view of water. Very basic
but extremely comfortable. Staff was very accomodating. There is a
really nice restaurant one hotel down; food is excellent. My girlfriend
and I enjoyed the rustic, romantic quality of the cottages. The beach
is not large but there are not a lot of people so you feel there s
plenty of room. Just watch the waves. Get a $10 massage for an hour.
Time stands still. Be sure to visit the other side of the island and
eat at Ploy on the beach. |

This is the 3rd time we spend a weekend at Ao Prao. The beach is beautiful,
and providing a fantastic playground for our children. Staff is friendly
and food is excellent. This time we went home by speedboat instead
of using the normal shuttle provided by the resort, which opened our
eyes for the possibility to travel ourside the restricted hours of
the resort shuttle. |

The hotell was nice rigty beside the beach. I thik this hotell was
quite overpriced. The food on the hotell was terrible. I ordered a
beef, and the did not ask how it should be done. It was raw. My wife
tasted other food and that was not good either. The beach rigth beside
the hotell was very nice. You shold expected more from the rooms for
that price |

It was the worst resort I visit since the time I started to spent
my holidays in Thailand. It was my fifth time in Thailand. From outside
it look like a paradise, but my room 405, was poorly maintained, had
signs of infiltration on the walls and ceiling. My first encounter
in the room was with a cockroach when I try to use the lavatory. Behind
the bed there was a small wall made of hood, and inside had rats and
I clearly could ear their noises. We talked with the employee who
cleans the room and it only smile. The air conditioning was noisy
and cleaning was bad. The dust near the bed has been clean in 4 nights
only on visible areas. The spider web near the mirror in the toilet
has there since we check in until the day of the check out. The ants
circulated throughout all room hand and even slug was found going
up the walls of the toilet after take a walk true the bath towel.
If you like rural tourism, it is worth going for it. The staff was
nice and kind. |

Very nice hotel, with good service and nice beach. We stayed in a
beach front cottage, which was very nice, because of the fantastic
view and the privacy. The hotel is placed on a remote corner of the
island, where there is only 3 other hotels. This makes the area very
nice and quiet, and the beach private for the hotel guests. The morning
buffet was exellent and the restaurent ok - the only negative thing
is that the prices at the hotel are very high compered to the rest
of Thailand. It is a very good idea to use the facilities of the hotel
next door Lima Coco . The hotel it self is the samt price as Ao Proa
but not as nice, but the food and drinks are much cheaper, and they
arrange very good boat trips at nice prices. |
