Great hostel that is close to the airport and the ferry to Koh Phangan. The walk to the ferry was only about 5 minutes. Great access to the white beach. We only stayed the night before taking a ferry but it was very enjoyable.

Very welcoming staff on arrival and happy to help. 30 steps to the most relaxing beach from your bungalow. Bungalows are spacious and clean. In the middle of a 2 mintue taxi to either fishermans village or big buddha. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

We were made to feel really welcome, such a chilled out place. Chris was really helpful with info on where to eat & book tours. Really nice guy, beautiful family. The security guard is our hero after helping us get rid of our mouse guest!! Was so funny!! Read the whole story here www.loladayonholiday.com The beach is only a few steps away & is clean & quiet. We booked to stay 3 days but stayed 5 instead. Thank you!! Would definately recommend!

Not really much in the location but our bungalow was clean, spacious, and we even got a tv and fridge! Excellent value for money. The beach is not great. En suite was clean and spacious. Owner was very friendly. Also got chairs and a table on a small patio, quite a picturesque little place! Very secure, felt very safe here, front gate is always locked and there is a night security guard and dog.

Chris was super nice and helpful and also suggested a great tattoo artist across the street from the Bungalows, where we got wicked tattoos. The Chill Room bar is also very convenient and a really cool place to pass the time. The restaurant next door has awesome food and they're okay with bringing your order over to the bar, so you can eat and drink, without having to run back and forth too much. Lots of great restaurants within a very short walking distance too.

Not in the greatest location - nothing opens till well after noon making it hard to find somewhere for breakfast. The beach is pretty desterted & not much beach space. We actually checked out after the first night & went over to the other side of the island (Chewang) where there was life, music, shopping & a beautiful beach.
