The iBed Hostel is very nice and clean. It's just the right place to go after Full Moon or to relax while not overstretching the budget. Unfortunately there don't seem to be too many people staying there so the athmosphere and social character is not as good as in others hostel, but I would still recommend it for a place to stay on Koh Samui

Stayed in a twin-room for one night. Very comfortable beds, clean room, nice showers and great overall design of the hostel. The beach is just across the road, while the party-place is a bit further away. Definitely recommendable.

It is a great place if you want some comfort. Great showers and love the beds. Very private but still the fun of meeting people from all over..

This hostel was very clean and modern but was very quiet. Although there was an awesome communal area it wasn't a lively place to stay. It is great if you want somewhere relaxing and nice to stay, but if u want to meet people and party then this probably won't be the place for you.

I loved staying at I-bed. One of the best hostels I've stayed in whilst in South East Asia!

This is absolutely an above average Hostel. During my stay it was really quiet. Combined with a somewhat luxary facility, it felt very up class. + fresh, very clean. Happy and helpful staff. Nice kitchen facility. - reoccurring problems with the AC which is controlled centrally. Only one computer.

Very good location, only 2 min to beach, friendly staff, value for money.

Awesome in almost every way, except that it's MOSQUITO TOWN, because most of the hostel is open-air. After a Full Moon Party (which the staff around round-trip travel to for 800 baht), the latest returners turned off the AC and then mosquitoes harvested my blood, so definitely bring a mosquito net if you stay here. Otherwise, staff is VERY helpful, there's one computer (sometimes a line), laundry is cheap, the facilities clean, and pretty good location.

Really liked this hostel. Free breakfast is basic, but nice to have. Easy to meet people in the common areas. Plenty of places to rent mopeds in the area. Just watch out for the expensive taxis hanging around outside.

This is a 'five star' hostel with excellent facilities, a very very high level of cleanliness and the best bed I have ever had in a Hostel.... that said the sterile environment may not be to everyones choice. Website is misleading in that you may think the 24 dorm beds are in one room - this is not the case - there are six 4 bed dorms. Only negative - staff had poor levels of english

The hostel belongs to a good hotel opposite the road. The whole design is great and i liked the "open-space-design" of the place. Unfortunately the reception was not always occupied so sometimes you have to wait for the staff. But definitely a place I would stay again if I go back to Samui. Trustful motorbike rental service introduction. The center of lamai-beach is aprox. 10min walking distance.

Really nice clean place to stay on Koh Samui, however the atmosphere in the hostel was a little poor.

Awesome location near Lamai Beach, but if u want to party u should stay at Chaweng beach! If I would go back to Koh Samui, I would stay at I-bed. 2 min from the beach and I meet a lot of people there, rooms are clean and free WIFI.

This hostel is fabulous! It's soo clean and has everything and you're given a blanket and a towel. The beach is pretty much across the street and down the road you can find countless places to eat or get a fruit shake ;) The staff are nice and accommodating. Breakfast is just toast/coffee/tea. A tip - if you're staying in a dorm downstairs, use the bathrooms one level up - they're cleaner and always available! ;)

FANTASTIC hostel! Very new and super sleek and modern with a great staff. The beds were very private (curtains on each bed) they had TV sets and plenty of power outlets-great for a flashpacker like me. Great place to meet travelers. Good location in Lamai-away from the hustle and bustle but still loads of shops, restaurants and bars. They own the hotel across the street which is on the beach so you can use the facilities there (have to pay a small fee for the pool and chairs). A big Thumbs Up

Beautiful hostel! I didn't want to stay in a gross backpacker hostel for the Full Moon Party, so I stayed here and took a motor boat over (which I thought was no problem.) Definitely a good choice! Comfy beds, very clean facilities, great atmosphere, easy beach access...what more could you want?
