 The
bungalows are very rustic and suit those looking for a
non-standard experience.
The original
Bungalow Village is completely unique, preserving, as it does,
the style and atmosphere of Samui as it used to be, but
offering this in the context of quality and service for which
the Inn is world renowned.
Although
small the thatched cottages with woven bamboo walls, (see
next picture), have bathrooms with
Western-style toilets, hot water, telephones, digital
electronic safes, mini bars, tea / coffee facilities and are
designed with couples in mind.
 They have one
double bed downstairs, (which occupies most of the floor
area), and a further single mattress in a tiny attic room
which makes them serviceable for two friends traveling
together but not being on double bed terms, (one child aged 6
to 12 will fit up there too but if there are also two adults
downstairs then the room is too small to be convenient -- it
only works if one child accompanies one adult. Children under
6 cannot be accommodated in the bungalows). Usually people use
the attic to store their bags and, perhaps, to lie down during
the day and gaze out of the little upstairs window, thus
getting an elevated view along the beach.
With these
rooms we try to realise the tropical island fantasy of a
thatched cottage on the beach, beneath the stars. The
construction is so rustic & open that they give the feeling of
being almost camped on the beach. They are fan-cooled and one
sleeps under a mosquito net. This is their charm for some, but
for others they may not be suitable.
If the idea of this style appeals to you but the rusticity
does not then check out our "Bungalow
Suite"
An integral
part of the philosophy of Laem Set Inn is to create an
interesting gathering of people from all walks of life, not
excluding younger persons and not attracting exclusively a
moneyed elite. We understand that success in life is not
determined solely by material achievement and we want the Inn
to be accessible to interesting, stimulating people who have
chosen diverse paths through life.
These
bungalows enable us to offer the experience of Laem Set Inn to
persons who appreciate style and quality but who might find
the other styles inaccessible. Although we have two
non-seafront bungalows this style loses its appeal when it
loses its fantastic position and these latter two are usually
used either for a maid/nanny traveling with a family or for
emergency overspill. We do not actively publicise them on this
site but you are welcome to contact us to enquire about them.
