Located in Ko Phayam, just 300 metres from Ao Khao Kwai South Beach, Rasta House, Koh Phayam provides beachfront accommodation with a private beach area, a garden, a terrace and free WiFi.

I loved my little bungalow on stilts at the Rasta House. The room has all the basics that you need like a mosquito net, toilet, shower and wash basin. there is also a fan that is great to cool you down. Great balcony with a hammock and chairs that you can chill out on and invite friends onto for a sundowner beer.

    What a beautiful, mostly unspoilt island, lovely beaches, jungle and no cars! Laid back atmosphere. The food was amazing, much, much better than in Koh Tao where we are now. Lovely local people. A real gem - let’s hope it doesn’t go the way of Koh Samui and Koh Tao.

    Amazing, largely unspoilt island.

    Amazing, largely unspoilt island. No cars so get a bike to tour around the island. Visit Hippie Bar Eat at Knock Knock Nok and Sun Resort for excellent fish. Look out for hornbills and sea eagles Take a boat out

    The Island is incredible - beautiful, lush and lovely to explore by scootie, cycle or walking. Our fav restaurant was The Kitchen Table run by Chioko. Best brusketta and place to hang with sweet kitties and dogs. Also Flower Power has excellent Italian food. We loved our stay in Bamboo Bungalos. Can’t wait to go back! Pure heaven.

    Empty wide sand beach, tranquility.

    Empty wide sand beach, tranquility. It is great for people who really want to relax, great for families. Rent a scooter to get around, if you want to explore a little more. Kajaks are fun to have some activity.

    The weather, the scenery.

    The weather, the scenery. The beaches were all stunning and the sunsets at JJ Beach resort were amazing!! Plenty of good restaurants on the island. Can personally recommend Flower Power and Cha Chai Hime for vegetarian food. All round good vibes on the island.

    Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!)

    Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!) The Thai and Burmese that live and work on the island are always friendly, helpful and HONEST. Getting around the island is easy and cheap, whether by foot, motorbike, bicycle or motorbike taxi. The food is delicious, with a variety of cuisines for those who want a change from Thai or Burmese food, many of the foodstuffs are sourced locally, including seafood caught from the sea surrounding Phayam, food and accomodation are very affordable, I have been coming to Phayam for ~ 8 years now and won’t stop.

    The location is perfect. The beach and area around the hotel are keept clean. The rooms are very comfortable and I especially like the softer mattress compared to other hotels in thailand. The staff is extremely nice and will help you get anything you need. The pool is clean and nice view over the ocean. Please remember - this is an upcoming tourist area, so not all staff speak English - but then again that's a good excuse to learn a bit of thai language.

    Nothing if you are in the second raw bungalows. We booked for 5 days and looked for another place the very same day we arrived. The location was terrible, the view was to a wall from the bungalow in front, totally overpriced, and they kept telling us that if we didn’t like it we should talk to booking.com. Needless to say that the tv, the air-conditioned didn’t work,… total rip-off. They are lying to you when the sell the second row bungalows!

    Everything about our stay was great. We stayed 4 nights, the owners and staff were lovely and friendly. Our bungalow and the hotel had places to laze and hang outside. Breakfast hit the spot. The beach was quiet and water great and the restaurants and bars along the beach were great as well. Just a great place to be based out of on the island and to go slow. Would come back!

    Very nice and friendly staff. The owner even arranged our transfer and hotel for our next stop. The Bungalows were the nicest we had in Thailand so far and the breakfast was very delicious and changed every day (not the standard toast and marmalade). We really enjoyed our time at the island, especially because we felt very comfortable in our Bungalow

    There is swimming pool next to the beach. Good view and we can order foods from hotel’s restaurant. Foods and coffee are so delicious. Room is not far from the beach and hotel is not far from the pier. Hotel provides car to pick up and drop off at the pier. Hotel can reserve speed boat for 600 thb per person (go and back).

    100% perfect location on the south end of Buffalo Bay. Only a few bungalows tucked away in the trees so never felt busy. Incredibly quiet and peaceful, surroundings immersed in nature. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and served above average food.

    The staff is very friendly and helpfull. The last bungalows (4-5-6) are close to the nature and far away from the motorbike noise. The food is very good. Late afternoon you can enjoy the feeding of hornbills. It is recommended to have an own motorbike.
