Wonderful stay! The bungalow was perfect, breakfast and diner fabulous, and if you love dogs it is paradise ☺️

I would recommend your own transport as it's a little off the beaten track. If you are at all nervous about dogs this might not be a good choice for you. They are all friendly though.

Beautiful teak bungalows, cosy and very comfortable. Good a/c, lovely bed, spacious bathroom and your own veranda. Hosts were always on hand, generous with their time and attention and couldn't have been more helpful. The food was lovely and all cooked to personal order.

Near the ocean, at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by jungle and a coconut plantation, the two hosts Mook and Rick have set up a resort and dog shelter which ticked all the boxes for me. The place is lush and tranquil, and the dogs are well cared for and living their best lives. My bungalow was spacious and spotless with a modern A/C and a refrigerator with cold water. The food is as authentic as can be, cooked up by Thai native Mook, while you chat and enjoy a cold drink at the bar. I cannot overstate how great these dishes were. Fresh, varied and unbelievably tasty. The hosts themselves made every effort to engage and make my stay comfortable. They're friendly and funny, with strange and interesting stories to tell. Rick caught me driving off with a flat tire. Not only did he change the tire to a spare but arranged for the flat one to be fixed at the local mechanic the same day. Thanks buddy. If you are a dog person, this is where you go. If you are not, I'd recommend alternatives. I stayed 3 nights as a solo traveler, looking for a peaceful place to read my books. I found what I was looking for and much more.

A sprawling lawn with views of the mountain. Who wouldn’t want to wake up to that. Rick and Moo were excellent hosts, and Moo a fabulous cook. Its amazing what she whips up in that pit with so much ease. My son Charlie had the most amazing time hanging with their extended family - 19 dogs counting - and was particularly sad to leave Chubby! Rick was super charming with Charlie and regaled him with stories of the dogs that kept him much entertained.

Mok & Rick are exceptionally welcoming hosts! The food was amazing and I really enjoyed chatting about music over a couple of drinks late into the night. If you’re looking for a quiet place to relax or start you’re day trip from, this is it. If you’re a dog lover, you’ll probably have a hard time leaving (currently counting 19 furry friends on the grounds).

What an amazing location! We didn't have a car but the owner was happy to supply transport to local caves within the National Park. We stayed 4 nights and ate in their on site restaurant every night as the authentic and varied menu was perfect. The nearby beach is accessible down a quiet country track and it's possible to walk for miles in the sand at Dolphin Bay with a few quiet bars. You must try Mok's Thai breakfast - it is to die for! We tried many others during our trip to Thailand and this was the best by absolutely miles!!!

Mok and Rick are wonderful, they know how to make guests feel welcome, and they make delicious meals and drinks (we loved their soups, pork larb and fruity cocktails). They showed us around and provided us with valuable tips for our visit to the national park. We had a wonderful stay here, and thus stayed there one night longer. The bungalow is very well built and spacious, it even had a nice swing chair to enjoy the view. Last but not least, we enjoyed the company and charm of their rescued dogs.

Nice, quiet and cozy place next to the national park. Hosts where very friendly, helpful and gave us a lot of infos about the surroundings. They have a dog rescue there and the dogs are amazing. We were there for one night and had lunch + cocktails, which we can really recommend. Will come back again for sure! Thanks a lot :)

There is nothing not to like! Everything is great. Their location is even pet-friendly and I was very pleased with the treatment and facility.

This place is such a star in the middle of the natural area next to the national park, surrounded by mountains, near to the beach, close to all the highlights of the national park. Absolutely incredible location. Hosts are so great, your stay will be truly like being at home. I highly recommend this place.

. Great hosts and great location Owners Mook & Rick are great host's. We brought our old dog with us and they were great looking after him while we went out. Location is set amongst nature but rooms have a/c , good hot water, clean and comfortable. Location is easy distance from all attractions in the area. Highly recommend for people who want something a little different from a boring hotel room but still want comfortable rooms.

Everything about this place is great. Super peaceful, waking up with a view of mountains and a sky full of stars before going to sleep. Hosts are super friendly and nice too [: Renting a motorbike riding along the beaches, fishing towns to see the simple lives of the locals was super amazing.

Second time we visited Jing Jo resort. Khun Muk and Rick are friendly as ever, the food is amazing and it’s simply a wonderful tranquil place. Not the place if you’re looking for a 5 star resort, extreme luxury or a party scene but if you want quiet, beautiful starlit nights and personal attention that is great value for money, it’s highly recommended.

This is a pearl in the Sam Roi Yot area, a perfect stay to explore all the beautiful beaches, caves, viewpoints and trails from the area. It's so enjoyable to talk with the australian hosts about just anything, they keep the place in a beautiful state and have a great positive energy. The food is just spectacular, every meal in the thai menu is state-of-the-art home cooked, served in a very pleasant varanda with good music, great atmosphere. The bungalows are very confortable with wooden balconies and embedded in an amazing garden, during the night you will probably never have slept in such a quite place in all your life! Thanks for the awesome stay and hope to see you again soon!

So a little about the hotel. The hotel is located in an incredibly quiet location at the foot of the mountain. Consists of several small cozy wooden bungalows. There is no TV in them if it is important to someone, although I think that everyone comes here for peace. Incredible view. Super friendly hosts. A married couple, where a Thai wife will cook for you an incredible Tom Yam for dinner, and an English-speaking husband who is able to tell about everything in the area and advise on the best route. But that's not all, there is a stunning beach nearby, where you will be completely alone. If you don't feel like using your car, just ask the owners for a motorbike. They will kindly provide it. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, if you are a smoker like me, do not forget to buy cigarettes, the nearest 7-11 6 km. Overall, I really liked it. Calm and comfort. And I already miss the dogs that met me every morning on the porch of the bungalow.

19 dogs is a little bit too much considering all of them running towards us when entering and leaving the property, also very loud barking and howling starting early mornings. I paid for an additional bed which was only a mattress and still covered completely in plastic, therefore very loud when moving on it during the night. Unbelieavable was the owner who told me to "grow up" and offered me to face my "fear of dogs" :-D I grew up with dogs, so that's not an issue. But a sum of 19 dogs in total are not suitable for renting out accomodation. This should have been clearly stated in the description of the property.

Wonderful view of the surrounding mountains
