Information: Philosophy. Below is an almost complete reprint of the introduction to Laem Set Inn, (minus a few sections on security), as placed in all the rooms for guests to read on arrival. Some of it may be a little irrelevant at this stage of your interest in the Inn, but it gives a good overall feel for what we are doing here, the sort of place this is and the way we view our work. You can either ignore it, skip through it or, if you are in a more advanced stage of planning a visit, read it through. WELCOME TO LAEM SET INN. Please make yourselves at home. This is a small Inn and we would like you to feel more like guests in our home than clients in a hotel. Many of our visitors come by recommendations from previous satisfied guests and this circle forms the nucleus of Laem Set Inn. Welcome to it! We hope that not only will you enjoy your stay but that you may also make new friends here with whom you can keep in touch. Please read through this rather lengthy introduction. It explains the workings of the Inn and lays-out the range of services available and how to access them. We hope that reading it will make you feel comfortable and secure at our small establishment. The air-conditioners that we have installed in the standard rooms and suites are powerful enough to cool down the rooms very quickly. Please remember to turn them off when you leave the room and help conserve energy. Thanks! In rooms # 228 to #334 the key must be placed in the illuminated slot next to the door to start the air-conditioners. Please remove the key and take it with you when you are not in the room. On occasions, (fairly frequently in fact), the government power fails and we have to resort to our generators. These are powerful enough to run the whole hotel, air-conditioners and all. We apologize if there is a slight delay in the changeover from mains power to generators. This is usually less than 5 minutes. Transfer to and from Samui airport is usually by our own vehicle. An independent limousine service using mini-buses or saloons can take your party to Surat Thani airport via the ferry, to Phuket or even all the way to Bangkok (for a price!!). Please ask if you have any special transport requirement. We usually charge Baht 600 for transfer per trip. We can arrange baby-sitting and child care at reasonable rates. In fact if we are not busy our staff will be glad to play with your children anyway. We will feed your children at 6pm and then look after them while you dineJust ask. Although rare in this area, (and a seriously endangered species if we spot them!), these nuisances can ruin the peace and enjoyment of a beach holiday. Please dont feel that you are being impolite by ignoring such people. Please refuse to buy anything from them. It wont be a bargain and it encourages an activity which can if, unchecked, degrade the peaceful environment we so enjoy. Although we do not pester you to sign every time you make a purchase or place an order we would suggest that at breakfast time, a couple of days into your stay you ask to review your bill. This way you can anticipate the likely final amount more accurately and any misunderstandings can be dealt with before they snowball. The lack of the need to sign everything is an intentional feature of the inn designed to free you from having to think about money like you have to every other day of your life. It is part of the atmosphere generator but requires an element of trust on the part of the guest and the host. Dont think about money daily but check it every other day or every third day or so. Caution: After a week at Laem Set Inn lots of people go out to the village or town and forget to take any money with them. It is gratifying to see our guests relaxing like this but the rest of the world wants cash! If we purchase air tickets for you or put any other items on your bill for which we paid cash in the town we have to surcharge this particular item but it will be clearly noted on your bill that we have done so. We also accept travelers cheques and cash in almost any currency. Accepting your money in the form you choose to give it is our way of extending a convenience to you and saving you the chore of going to the bank. We do not view it as an opportunity to make a profit. We appreciate your custom and we hope you leave feeling you have received fair value. The south coast of Samui is the last undeveloped part of the island. It offers the best chance to see Samui unaffected by tourism and to tour on lightly-traveled roads and tracks without racing trucks and space-cadets on motor bikes to disturb and endanger you. We provide you with 18 speed mountain bikes free of charge to help you see this lovely low-key coastline at a speed and in a manner which let you feel a part of it. Please ask before using a bike for the first time. Our staff will adjust the saddle and handlebars for you. We have maps at the reception. While the regular mountain bikes are fine for general use there are a couple of superior bikes in larger sizes for the larger guest and for real enthusiasts. These may need to be booked in advance. We have our own photocopied maps at the bar and would be pleased to mark a suggested itinerary for you. There is a very nice little restaurant about 6 kilometres away to the West which makes a nice trip out for lunch. We have a fisherman friend, the captain of our boat, who will take you to the nearby deserted islands for snorkeling/picnic/barbecue/swimming/fishing. We have been doing this day trip for years and years now and have it very nicely organized. If you are interested in doing this during your stay please express an interest and we will put together a party of 4 or 6 compatible people for the day out. We usually ask around supper time to see who would be interested for the following day. Caution. This is a hot and sunny excursion. You need to get used to the sun slowly for a few days before attempting this. The same boatman can do fishing trips for a morning/ afternoon, or just a couple of hours on request or can run you out to nearby reefs for snorkeling. There is a charge for this excursion or hire of boat and boatman. Please ask. Commercial operators in town run very inexpensive trips to the Marine National Park daily in season and we can make arrangements for you to join one of these, book transport to/from town for you Etc. You should ask us for a description of these outings before committing yourself to be sure they will suit you. We can hire in a charter powerboat for more personal customized trips but the price escalates dramatically for this level of service. Our informal boutique is located in the reception by the car-park. Other more basic requisites like film, disposable cameras, suntan lotion, insect repellent, cigarette lighters, batteries etc. are available from the bar. The cost like everything else is added to your bill. Although we cut the coconuts off the trees under which guests frequently sit. (e.g. in front of the restaurant), be just a little alert if the wind rises suddenly after a period of calm as quite a lot of stuff will fall out of the palms in these conditions. We will gladly supply buckets of ice and mixer drinks to guests rooms on request. If you wish to drink you own wine with a meal we will charge a corkage charge. We can easily cater to special dietary requirements and would ask that you inform us of these upon check-in. Although fresh seafood is our specialty we can do a mean vegetarian menu also replacing the meat/fish part of the meal with tofu and vegetable protein. This way you can order from the main menu but specify vegetarian variation. Some dishes adapt better than others - please ask. Electricity is 220 volts 50 Hz on a good day and the Inn is on government supply. This fails fairly regularly and we have a massive stand-by generator which should, in such an event, cut-in in less than 5 minutes. We have a limited supply of adaptors and transformers at the front...
