This hotel is away from everything - good or bad, depending on your perspective. During our visit, I only saw one or two other guests. The place felt deserted. We found the staff to be very attentive, helpful, and polite. They took us by boat back and forth to the mainland as often as we requested and helped to arrange... more

Resort is located on an island (i.e. only accessible by boat). We stayed in a pavillion (with Airco), although most ppl from our group got little bungalows (no airco) the best thing about it were the beautiful plants around, amazing! The room was ok, but nothing fancy - airco worked so we were happy ;). Dont waste an evening to... more

We stayed at this resort at the end of 2007, just before the new year holiday so the river was in full-swing disco mode. I would recommend that you choose this hotel during a weekend, major holiday you should get an air-con bungalow. We thought both types of units were great, but we selected the riverside non-air con room for... more

We were doubting to stay at Kasem Island resort after having read the disco boat review. I was happy and lucky we eventually did - we had very quiet nights! When we arrived on Saturday afternoon, it looked like we made a mistake. It turned out to be a long weekend for Thai, and when we took a boat to... more

This "resort" was booked as part of Imaginative Traveller's Thailand Family tour. Our tour leader seemed very enthusiastic about the place, promising some kind of island paradise in the jungle. Having stayed the previous night at the truly amazing River Kwai rafthouses nearby I was expecting more of the same. Things were looking up as we jumped onto our large... more

I am really fond of this place. It has a certain magic to it. The enchantment begins with the boat ride to Kasem Island with the magnificent grand mountains in the background. It was great to walk around the place and see the gardens that were carefully tended to, watch the flow of the river as well as see the... more

Be careful with your expectations with this place. Maybe if you are backpacking, this place is great but part of your main 2 week holiday, be aware of what to expect. It is pretty basic and as the other reviews say, could do with a lick of paint. I think this is an understatement - it needs a refurb. We... more

Beautiful setting, nicely kept, but sadly has been left to get a little run down. The boat ride from the pier takes just a few minutes and the views of real river life are great. The resort had very few guests whilst we stayed there and we found the isolation of a five day stay a little too much. The... more

We own a small hotel in Bangkok (Old Bangkok Inn) so we'd like to think we know a thing or two about how to run a small hotel. Kasem Island Resort was a great value in my opinion, they could easily sell the rooms for 2-3 times the price if they renovated the place and added some extra amenities, but... more
