O Restaurant

On the quiet curve of Ao Prao Beach, O Restaurant is Le Vimarn Cottages & Spa’s beachfront dining room — all under a beautiful Thai‑style pavilion with a sea breeze drifting through. Mornings start early with proper coffee and breakfast by the water; by late afternoon the sun drops behind the headland and the whole bay turns gold. It’s one of Ko Samet’s most romantic sunset tables, and you don’t need to be a hotel guest to dine here. The kitchen leans Italian with resort polish: think crisp pizzas straight from the oven, silky gnocchi and creamy risottos alongside grilled seafood and a few Thai favorites. Portions are generous, service is attentive, and the setting does the rest. If you’re staying nearby, it’s an easy wander down the sand; if you’re day‑tripping, time it for sunset and you’ll understand why regulars book ahead for front‑row seats. Practical bits: O Restaurant sits at 40/11 Moo 4 (Ao Prao, Koh Samet, Rayong). It’s open daily from 7am to 10:30pm. Call +66 38 644 104 to reserve, especially on weekends and holidays when the beach fills with Bangkok escapees. Expect resort pricing and resort‑level comfort — fair value for that view.
