Yes, many times. See below link where you can find all you want to know about hotels and prices.

See below map. The beaches of Had Sai Keaw and Ao Phai are the best IMO if you want good beaches and a lot of activity day and night. The further south you go on the east side, the more quiet and less developed. All of the east side beaches and water quality is good (usually). Don't compare Samet with Krabi or Phuket though, it's a nice place, but different. Pete :cheers:

Don't forget that July is the rainy season. 50-50 what weather you'll get on a daily basis. Pete :cheers:

Just got back from KS, great weather, sadly it is totally overrun with eastern Europeans, it used to be lovely
