    Most of the guests are there to party so it smells like weed everywhere. The same goes to the treehut.

    First of all the bungalow room is clean. Bathroom clean is ok. Beds are comfortable. There’s a fridge and water boiler. You get what you pay for so the value is ok.

    Had a lot of ants but they’re harmless. No beach or lounge chairs even though it is situated right on the beach.

    Very close to Haad Rin main area but far enough so it’s not right on the street of the full moon party. We loved the tree top restaurant with the comfy seats, hammocks and decor. The really made this play stand out. Very chill atmosphere. If you walked down 50 metres you could visit another beach bar that had heaps of bean bags and chairs laid out to relax and drink along the beach.

    Unfortunately at the end of our trip when we asked the lady there for a taxi for the next morning at 04:00 to catch the ferry she wanted to charge us 2000 baht. I walked to town and arranged a taxi for 600 baht. We were very disappointed she tried to rip us off like that. But the stay was pleasant enough.

    It is a clean beach, good for family. The swimming is accessible. It wasn’t rough water when we were there. The breakfast and coffee were good at the restaurant. The staff brought us what we needed when we asked for it, such as a broom for sand.

    The hotel next door, Coral, played music until 4am on our first night and I think the speakers were very close to the room so we could hear it all night. Not the fault of Rainbow Bungalows but something to be aware of!

    We stayed in the beach front bungalow and it was beautiful watching the sun set each day. Room had a decent fridge and kettle, beds were big and air con worked great

    Nothing

    Unfortunately, my experience at Rainbow Hotel was very disappointing. There was no proper reception staff upon arrival, and the hotel felt almost abandoned. The room lacked basic amenities: no phone, no toiletries, no bath towel, and no beach towel. Even a basic beach chair was not available. Facilities mentioned online were completely missing. One of the staff members was surprisingly rude and unprofessional, which added to the poor experience. Overall, the place felt unmanaged and far below any reasonable hospitality standard. I rarely leave reviews, but I believe other travelers should be aware of what they are getting. Definitely not recommended in its current condition

    Location unbelievable, near the busy part of Haad Rin, but out enough where it's quiet at night, peaceful, whilst still flat and walkable to the main town, beachfront, stunning sunsets! Treehouse bar connected to Rainbow Bungalows, delicious cocktails (especially the Mai Tai!!) absolutely stunning views day and night, including gorgeous sunsets every day, lay-flat cushions all around the tree top bar, hammocks, the perfect chill spot!! The Rainbow Bungalow restaurant is AMAZING. Family run, family owned, homemade Thai cooking delicious, out of this world (Recommend the number #166 with Chicken and Holy Basil Stir Fry, with a fried egg on top!) Not just the authentic Thai food is a must, they also do the usual English Breakfasts, variations of eggs your way, bacon baguettes, omelettes, smashed avocado, French Toast, burgers etc, really broad selection but not failing in quality at all, fantastic bite to eat all throughout the morning/lunch/night. Opens early and usually closes kitchen around 8/9pm depending on business. (It is a family-run intimate place on the beach, ran from early in the morning by the same staff/owners, not a busy busy style restaurant with lots of waiters/waitresses etc). We cannot recommend this place enough, it was our first time here this year, and we've already made plans to come back to Rainbow with our family and friends next year! For the price, it's a no-brainer, if you're coming to Koh Phangan, you have to stay at Rainbow at least once! Me and my wife came here for 2 weeks on our honeymoon, they laid flowers out on the bed, a bunch of roses and bubbly ready cold, with 2 glasses (as a surprise), fantastic service!

    While booking this property I wasn’t able to pay, which I thought was weird. Then I received an E-Mail asking me to transfer half of the amount or pay via PayPal, but the PayPal link was removed. It stated, that if I wouldn’t pay, they would cancel the stay. I messaged them and asked, if I could pay once I got there, they said yes. When we got there, they said paying via PayPal wasn’t possible and paying with a credit card would cost a 4% fee, which isn’t unusual and normally just added by the bank. In this case, the owner added the fee directly, which seemed sketchy. The towels provided were extremely dirty and had a lot of stains, so we hat to exchange them for fresh ones. There was no cleaning service, which wasn’t mentioned anywhere. We only stayed 3 nights, so it wasn’t that necessary for us, but if we stayed longer, it would be quite nasty. One day before our departure, we asked, if they could organize a taxi to the pier the next morning. He said yes and to wait at the reception at the scheduled time. We waited there for 15 Minutes. Everything was still closed off, except for one side door being open. We called in, but no one answered, so we left and got ourselves a taxi.

    The room was ok.

    Way too overpriced for what it is. The bungalows are outdated, the AC is not strong enough, the location is pretty far from haad rin beach, about a 15-20 min walk (you don’t want to do that in Thailands heat, so it’d be better get a scooter, I guess). But even though there is basically not much going on, the music of the hotels around it is SO loud, you won’t be able to fall asleep. I also didn’t see a blowdryer, but also didn’t ask for one. Just FYI.

    There’s a bar in the center of the little property, it’s a tree house right by the beach, it is really cute and cozy. The lady who seems to be in charge speaks English pretty well, which is nice and uncommon.
