    It is unnecessary to change towels and sheets every day. It’s not very sustainable.

    Staff were all extremely friendly and accommodating.

    I think the food and drinks could have been better at this resort. We also had a hard time tracking workers down if we needed anything throughout our stay. But once we did- they were always wonderful!

    Close to the beach and shopping! A great location with nice people.

    The air conditioning in my bungalow was not working properly and broke down completely after a few days, but I have to say that after reporting the problem to the owner, it was fixed the same evening. Please note that when paying via card, the property adds 3.2% of the price to the accommodation price. I deal with this more times in Thailand.

    I spent 5 nights in the Bungalow Deluxe , including breakfast. Breakfast is served on an elevated terrace overlooking the beach, you can choose from several options. A pleasant surprise for accommodation of this category was the kettle in the room. Sunbeds always available, don't be afraid and ask the staff to add an umbrella if you need it. I used to eat in the Magic restaurant - the food is delicious and you don't have to wait long. There is a night market nearby also.

    We spent 5 nights at the property and it was a good stay. The beach is literally a 30 second walk and so is the town therefore the location is perfect. The staff were excellent, you receive water every day and your room is cleaned providing new towels. However, as we are on a budget, we opted for a room with a fan rather than paying an extra £30 for air-con. The fan wasn’t close to giving us any relief from the humidity and heat, making it very difficult to comfortably stay in our room during the day. Even using our toilet was a struggle. If you choose to stay at this property, we definitely recommend paying extra for air-con. Other than that, we had a great time!

    Nothing :)

    My 2nd stay at this super little family-run place in Lamai, situated right next to the beach. Khun Goi and her team are genuinely lovely people and it's my go-to place now. I just wish I'd been able to stay a lot longer! No pool but you don't need it with the beach close by with good swimming conditions. Restaurant, great massage and jet-ski hire all available.

    Wouldn't change a thing.

    This is one of the few remaining small family run places among the growing up-market resorts, and we loved it! The staff were exceptional (the owner getting up early to make us a take-away breakfast on our last day), the guy on the beach moving the umbrellas around for us as the sun moved, their helpfulness in booking things for us. They couldn't do enough. We had a basic room (small) but it had an excellent bathroom, a/c and a little terrace. And out of four other places we stayed throughout Thailand, it was the cheapest and the only one to provide enough sun-loungers. Yey! Also had my best massage ever there. And we were glad to see the local people are still walking the beach selling their wares and cooking corn-on-the-cob - they seem to have been chased from other beaches on the island.

    If y ooo u get a room close to street, it’s thumping loud. Lamai and Chaweng beaches are the same. Loads of people and jet skis. There is a lot more nicer beaches but depends on what type of vacation you’re looking for

    Location was nice’. Staff were amazing.

    As commented before, the facilities need some care. Specially the walkway in the resort. Lots of holes in it. I didn’t think much about it until on the last night (in the dark) I stumbled in one of the big holes in front of our bungalow while being 6 months pregnant. Twisted my leg, scratched and bruised the other and got some ugly whole on my hand. Not a happy way to end the island trip.

    Good beachfront location with budget friendly cost(compared to next door resorts). Nearby lots of different restaurants and night markets.

    The accommodation was absolutely fine. Very quiet and at the same time very close to all shops and restaurants. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us. The possibility of renting a scooter in the accommodation without any haggling like in other rental shops, where they look for any scratch to get money out of you. I can only recommend!!! Wifi works as it should. Thank you
