Viking Holiday Resort

It was a very lovely stay. Our room was on the second floor with a view of the sea, and it looked completely newly furnished. The room was very spacious, everything was clean, and there was a large refrigerator. The staff was very helpful, and the breakfast was abundant and delicious. We especially loved having a private beach where we could relax and enjoy the stunning views. We highly recommend this place - everything was perfect.

Great place to stay and have the fullest battery recharge! We call it our paradise - wonderful beaches, great nature nearby. We love staying at Viking, many times already! The hospitality and friendliness of stuff, modern rooms, great buffet breakfast!

Albeit we probably had the smallest and oldest room of the resort, we had the most relaxing time. The staff were super friendly and helpful, the resort clean and tended well. We enjoyed our breakfasts and lunches at the resort, and had dinner at the nearby restaurants (on the same small beach), one with music and a fire show. We felt so relaxed and at ease that we decided to stay an extra night, got a more spacious room with a sea view. Real value for the money, a place to relax in. A warm recommendation.

Unique place, run by 2 fantastic ladies and their sweet and helpful staff. We extended our stay 2 times. Beds are super comfortable. Kitchen makes good Thai food. Will return❤️

We stayed in a bungalow at the Viking Holiday Resort for about a week in November 2024, and it definitely did not disappoint. The room had air-conditioning, a lifesaver if you're not use to the heat and humidity of Thailand. The medium sized fridge has a freezer section and as a whole large enough to hold your drinks and snacks from the trusty 7 Eleven in town. The bathroom has your standard shower, toilet and basin combo. The bungalow was neat and clean, basic but perfect if you're not planning on staying indoors much. I only subtracted a star due to the bed's mattress being a bit harder than I prefer, but it wasn't too uncomfortable. For those who want a bit more luxury, I believe there are new family-sized units available. From what I could see they have a living area, separate rooms and balcony/ veranda with a sea view. The restaurant is open from 07h00 to 17h00 and serves traditional Thai and Western meals. I believe they do a buffet breakfast during the busy season. I can recommend the fried garlic and pork with fried rice for lunch - it'll keep you the entire day. The resort has some essentials for sale during the day, potato chips, soft drinks, beer, wine spritzers and of course mosquito repellant. You can borrow the resort's diving masks, snorkels and pool floaties. The resort is right on the beach with ample beach chairs and umbrellas. Do yourself the favour and enjoy a beer under the palm trees whilst gently swaying in the hammock. We went to the neighboring resorts for dinner (Apache Loongdum and Sangthian Beach Resort), both a 5 minute walk from the resort. I recommend Sangthian, they had delicious food and a free fire show in the evenings. Getting around on the island is easy. You have a choice of private taxis or the shared pick-up truck taxis (Songthaews). There is a taxi stand at Sangthian Beach Resort. The shared taxis rotate throughout the island each hour, starting at 08h30 and ending at 18h00. For the adventurous at heart, rent a scooter. For 400 THB, you can rent one for the day and zip around the island without waiting for taxis. You can enquire about the scooters and taxis at the resort, they arranged our scooter for drop-off and pick-up at the resort. If you are looking for a relaxed breakaway to an island where you aren't trampled by tourists, Ko Samet is the place to go, with Viking Holiday Resort being ideal for solo-travelers, couples and families alike. BIG thank you to the two ladies who manage the resort, you were amazing and made our stay memorable!

Perfect getaway from the crowd, very acomodating and friendly staff. Unfortunately at this moment they are in remodelation-works, so lots of woodwork-noise all day. For working in the room a no-go, but if you dont need to be in the room, it is highly recommendable!

The hosts are so kind.... It's a very quiet area to chill and relax. Good place to go with kids.

Amazing experience here ! Kind team, ready to serve you anytime, great breakfast. We were in a little paradise, due to the quiet location, and close to the beach. Kop Kun Kup !
