Another small beach bay with fine white sand, but with more bars and a party vibe compared to Samet Beach. Not many dogs and no public toilets but plenty of restaurants and bars around. Good for swimming or relaxing as shallow and not deep gradient.

Nice little beach with everything you need.

Very cozy and authentic island. Silver sand resort I liked very much. Very friendly staff, tasty food, good beverages, amazing fire show, romantic atmosphere. Room also good, you can find everything needed. Unfortunately it was wavy that's why water wasnt clear but this is out of human control.

Beautiful beach with a lot of chairs to rent, get massages or eat and drink. Great spot for kiddos too.

Its not good. Dirty filthy blehh. Picture is the wall next to the bed. Many more strange 'drips' at the shower on the mirror. Just a bit more up the road and there you find rooms, they are clean (bit more expensive) but worth it. Also the area of the bungalows is full of garbage.

One of the best beaches for swimming on the island. There is no problem finding a decent and remote shade even in high season and the beach itself is properly looked after.

One of the most beautiful beaches I have even visited. Clear water, white sand. There are some beach lounge chairs to be rented. The personnel that you should pay to will appear as soon as you put some thing on one of the chairs. Toilets are close to the beach. Follow the signs a little bit to the hill. I haven't seen any showers, which is the only disadvantage that I saw.

Nice beach until it gets crowded

Awesome beach to spend relaxed time. It's small and does not have any restaurants around to disturb you. Clean water. Pretty good for natural photography without any construction around.

Peaceful.

Was a great place to stay for a holiday, with Emerald grewntwater very relaxing place and white sand beach🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️ #khosamet

Ao Phi is a small beach but it's clean and not too much people kinda private though.

Lively especially at weekends

Party here on long weekend is crazy

compared to the white sand beach, this beach is still quite calm. Still too overbuilt for me. Not much is left of nature.

land mark "Phra Apai and mermaid here"

Great bars and restaurants

Small but quiet not much tourist. And very nice the tree gate.

Ao Phai is situated next to the main beach (Sai Keaw Beach), walkable distance from Sai Keaw Beach... Personally, it is one of the best beaches on the islands where we enjoyed most. Not so crowded but not so quiet. There are many restaurants and beach bars, cafe alongside. Recommend "the flow bar". Sand is crystal white and shore is wide. Not many hotels and resorts around but Koh Samed isn't that big so you can enjoy riding motorbike from places to places. We stayed on Ao Prao beach, took 20 minutes to Ao Phai....

It's small beach and you can rent a motor bike here.
