    The shower pressure was a bit too low.

    The location is right at the bottom of the hill. There are monkeys visiting sometimes.

    It was a bit stressful trying to cross the road to get to and from the beach, especially after sunset when it's hard for the drivers to see you darting across.

    The bungalow was very spacious and clean, and I loved having a little balcony to sit on. The owner was very welcoming and pleasant, and all of the staff were friendly.

    My wife the bed too hard but it was fine for me. The room was a bit too too dark needs a bit more lighting

    Hostess was so lovely nothing too much trouble. The attached good food. The seamless way of hiring a motorbike with them. The vicinity to the beach and restaurants.

    There are a few things that are getting a bit older now, like furniture and in the bathroom, but still OK.

    Mrs. Som and her daughter Atama are very friendly and nice and the house are nice too, spacious enough and clean, set around a nice garden. So easy that they serve (good!) coffee as well as breakfast. They also rent motorbikes and can organize trips. So: everything is in good hands; a recommended place.

    Not having to ask for water daily would have been nice. Except for the walk distance to the beach, oh, and no pool, I liked what I got. And I did see a monkey on the grounds the first afternoon.

    There is no breakfast. I was VERY surprised to learn I couldn't pay by credit card. Was able to get money but wasn't in the money budget. That would make me think twice. Had to ask for water every day, but I received it once asked. The beach is 10 or more minutes walk down the Main Street the down a side street. I will say that once I walked off the Main Street and turned towards my bungalow, the crickets and other sounds caused me to feel calm and happy. For that reason, I really liked it.

    I think the hotel should focus more on cleaning. Floors and beds are fine, but the rest need some attention.

    Great place, value for money. You can spot monkeys coming from a jungle.

    The Wifi connection wasn’t the best. I switched to a different router as I couldn’t get much of a connection to the first, it was slightly better but still patchy. They do have a few that you can try though.

    The bungalow itself is a good size with useful furnishings and good AC. I found it very comfortable. I did have earplugs though which was useful as the monkeys can be a bit noisy early morning. The location was great for Khlong Dao beach which is a very nice, relaxing beach - I didn’t find it too busy. There are also great restaurants and cafes nearby. The laundry service is really good value and fast. My clothes were very fresh and clean. The owner is very nice too, and can organise trips/tours, and is generally very approachable.

    Very basic, no toiletries, shampoo bottles or soap provided. The cleanliness is a weak spot, as you may find ants (few small ones, no big deal) in the bed linen. The shower is not separated from the rest of the bathroom, but functional anyway. Since the drain had some flowing issues, the bathroom got flooded at every shower.

    Spacious loft, the best part is that if you wake up early you get to see monkeys around the garden! The staff has been super nice and helpful. They rent out motorbikes you can use to get around the island. Good value for money.

    was ok for a short stay, however would go elsewhere, bit unhelpful reception & constant ants in room
    • Leisure trip

    travelling with daughter and partner, booked a double bed and single bed, was greeted at reception by a youngster who spoke no english, even my thai partner who speaks a bit of thai, he was unresponsive to her weirdly. took us to our room and it was just a double bed. I said there's been a mistake, he then called the owner i think and she spoke a bit of english and swapped me to another room which was 2 single beds, i went back to reception and said we booked a double and single we should get that room, called the owner again, she apologised and said stay in it tonight and my room will be ready tomorrow, we said no, they then discussed some more and then said ok we give you another room, they then took me to the room i paid for, i have no idea why they couldn't just give it to me in the first place. Was ready to cancel but after all the back and forth i couldn't be bothered as was too tired to find somewhere else. The room was ok, quite basic, constant ants on the floor/bed when there wasn't any food nearby. Never ate at the place so can't comment on that. Only good thing is it's in a good location and hiring a bike was 250 baht a day, other than that, i'd go elsewhere.

    The room should have been much cleaner. I was not in one of the bungalows but a separate block. I only booked at short notice and I felt the room had not been freshly prepared. The bed, bathroom and towels were all clean but the floor and surfaces were in need of a good clean. The small kitchen area hadn't been cleaned in some time. The water went off a couple of times but only for an hour or so.

    The lady managing the property was friendly and responsive. The resort is close to the main village and a short walk from the main beach. The triple room came with a living room so was more like a small apartment.

    It was very clean. Staff were very helpful with everything we needed. They brought us an extra mattress. It was high season and we wanted to stay longer. They were fully booked but found us somewhere else to stay. Shirt walk to the beach along the main road. Easy to walk it when it's cooler but not in the middle of the day.

    Thin walls and a lot of noise from other guests and the road (we stayed in a bungalow in the far end). But with ear plugs it works fine.

    As a budget alternative it's a good choice. I missed having a shorter walking distance to the beach (this distance is ok, around 15 minutes) as I stayed in another hotel before this (and it wasn't that much more expensive and had a pool). The staff is very friendly and accomodated me very well. I could recommend this hotel for a couple of days stay but not a longer one as I personally truly enjoy having easy access to the beach.
