Kerala Coco Resort คีเรลาร์ โคโค่ รีสอร์ท เกาะเสม็ด

4.3(303 reviews)

Kerala Coco Resort sits on Ao Phrao (Coconut Bay), one of Koh Samet's quieter stretches of coastline on the western side of the island, offering a more secluded alternative to the busier eastern beaches. The resort draws its name and aesthetic from a fusion of tropical influences, and its beachfront setting provides guests with direct access to calm waters and softer crowds, making it a solid choice for travellers seeking a laid-back retreat within reach of Bangkok. Guests can expect a relaxed resort atmosphere with accommodation suited to couples and small groups looking to unwind. Ao Phrao's sheltered position means the water tends to be calmer than on the island's more exposed eastern shores, and the bay itself retains a quieter, more intimate character. The resort's reception and services operate daily from 09:00 to 21:00, so guests with late arrivals or early departures should plan accordingly and confirm arrangements in advance. Practically speaking, Koh Samet sits within Khao Laem Ya – Mu Ko Samet National Park, and visitors should be prepared to pay a national park entrance fee upon arrival at the island's pier. The resort is best reached via ferry from Ban Phe pier in Rayong, followed by a short transfer to Ao Phrao. Booking directly through the resort's website is advisable, particularly for travel during Thai public holidays and weekends when the island sees significantly higher visitor numbers.

Book Shoulder Season

Compare OTAs and Direct Rates

Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.

Pool Villa Doesn't Mean Expensive

Private pool villas in Krabi, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai start around 2,500–4,000 THB/night — a fraction of Bali or Maldives prices. Search specifically for 'pool villa' to surface hidden gems.
