    Location is perfect for getting around. Very centrally located, and tucked away from noise. The gardens are beautiful with an amazing array of miniatures, statues and ornaments!

    issues with the (not included) breakfast

    perfect location to catch the ferry to Koh Phangan - we only stayed one night but the place is very nice with little bungalows in a beautiful garden, so maybe it is not really fair to use the place only as a getaway

    The only thing I disliked was the poor level of sound proofing in the bungalow. There was some weird bird that decided to call it's friends four times during the night right next to our place, which made quite a loud noise and woke me up every time. Might want to bring earplugs with you. People made next to none noise though :)

    The staff was very friendly and the bungalow "neighborhood" was super cozy and peaceful. The pool was clean and conveniently placed and there were several restaurants and bars on the nearby street and coastline + a couple convenience stores. The sounds of nature were very calming and the big bungalow was clean and felt like you would actually live here. Also the Maenam pier and the beach are about 2min walk away. Definitely will recommend if you are looking for tranquil peace, sun, relatively quiet beach (excluding ferry departure hours near the pier) and cozy small circles in nearby bars or if you seek a short stop before boarding the ferry.

    unfortunately I booked quite late, which made the price very high in comparison to the services provided quite far from mae nam center if you dont have a motor bike or car, on top of that the beach is right next to the pier, so you have to walk a bit to get to a nicer ppart of the beach

    very nice staff, pool is great, very suitable for families or travelling with friends

    (No beach access or signs directing towards…I found it anyway n hopped the latched gate..in the dark. It was open n passable later. Aside, not much not to like in safe, comfortable, and simple, and very sufficient accommodations for a night.)

    Quaint, comfortable, sufficient, tidy.

    It was very basic, but then it’s 2 star! So wasn’t really expecting much more.

    Right next to pier which is why we chose it for our 8 am ferry to koh Tao the next day. So can’t really comment on much as we were there less than 12 hours! But for that is was adequate and we got what we paid for.

    The beds in Thailand in general I haven’t found great but these were a little springy but wouldn’t be put off and would still go back as it’s a reasonable price

    We used this as a pit stop, it was a stones throw from the pier for our early morning ferry making this ideal, restaurants on the door step too. We also loved having the pool.

    Very good location if you need to go to pier in early morning, less than one minute walk from resort to pier. The boss also very nice, taught us how to get to the pier, arranged breakfast, and recommended good restaurants to us. Although we only stayed here just around 12 hours, we feel satisfied to this resort. This price, this location, no complaint.

    Honestly can't say much about thos place as I only spent about 10 hours there to sleepover to catch the ferry the next evening, which is like a 5 minute walk, so a great sleepover option near the jetty.
