    Two Lovely clean bungalows on a small hillside just a few minutes walk from the sea shore. Rooms are brightly decorated and very clean with a large roof fan and a stand alone fan to keep you cool. Room had a toaster, plates , bowls, cutlery ,kettle and a fridge. Bathroom was clean and has an electric shower. Thr room has one large double bed and a sofa which would be big enough for a small child to sleep on. All the windows had mosquito nets so you could leave the windows open all the time to stay cool. Very friendly and helpful owner who organised us scooters and a taxi to the pier when we sadly had to leave. There is also a small cafe at the bottom of the entrance road selling cold drinks. We would definitely stay here again

    We spent a wonderful stay in THE BEST bungalow. Rewadee is also THE BEST host. She helped us to rent a scooter, was super flexible and available for us if we had any question. She also planned us an amazing excursion !

    We loved everything about this bungalow. It really feels like a private villa with gorgeous scenery surrounding it. It’s quiet so you only hear some birds sometimes, we saw a couple monkeys walking around the property too since you’re surrounded by jungle. It gets cool at night so no AC wasn’t a problem and it was actually really nice to have the windows open and fresh air all night. Poom was a great host and runs a tour company as well so she was able to book things for us and give us information about the island. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. There’s a water jug to refill water bottles in the room which is always an added bonus when travelling! We rented a scooter which Poom (host) also helped us with the first day and the location of the bungalows is perfect, there’s a coffee stall right down the hill (less than a minute walk) which was amazing! The beach is probably a 10 minute walk and a 2 minute scooter ride and there’s restaurants and shops right there as well. This was our favourite stay so far in all of our Thailand travels!! A super relaxing getaway, for the price we felt spoiled to have such an amazing place and we’re so sad to leave.

    Nothing to complain about.

    Spotless, quiet, comfy bed, good shower and so on.and the hosts were super helpful and very nice. I wanted a quiet week and it was perfect. A five minute walk to a handful of local restaurants, an hours walk to Six Senses beach where I saw no more than 2 people each of the 3 days I went and a 15 minute walk to the beach beneath the viewpoint where on 2 of the 4 days I went I saw nobody. The water on that beach was pristine.

    There was only a fan however this wasn’t a huge issue as in the night time it got colder.

    The property was lovely and clean, the bed was comfortable and the owner is lovely. We got to see a family of monkeys from the window of the property as well as hornbills. It is a short walk from the beach and some lovely restaurants.

    Beautiful bungalow in a peaceful setting. The bungalow was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed (20l water container, fridge, cutlery, shampoo etc) We loved it here and the terrace area was great for watching the monkeys and hornbills! Thank you to Pum who was very kind and helpful. Highly recommend.

    We spent 8 nights at the Best Bungalow. I stayed in many bungalows in Thailand before and this was the best bungalow so far! It is very spacious, comfortable, nice seating area outside (with shade), even a sofa and kitchenware and water boiler. Poom was the nicest host you can imagine. I asked her if we can rent a scooter and 5 minutes later, we had a scooter right in front of the bungalow. Also, for very fair price for longer rent. She also gave filled up the big water bottle for free. Also, we booked our boat tickets through her.. So many words :) we will stay here again when we return on this beautiful island.

    We loved every day we stayed at the best bungalow. Our host Poom was so lovely and supporting with every question we had and was giving her best that we could enjoy every minute of our time on Koh Yao Noi. We would go back instantly if we could - felt like a home far away from home.

    We were here in rainy season and heat was not too much of an issue, although the bungalow does get quite hot in the daytime. I would imagine it could get quite hot in summer season - we were fine with just the fan though!

    Everything here was just perfect! Poom is such a sweet and helpful host, she really went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. The bungalow is sparkling clean and decorated very nicely, it really feels like home. The bed is super comfortable, there is even a small couch and a very helpful little kitchen corner and fridge, where we could make our own breakfast. Also, a 20l drinking water bottle is included so you don't need to carry heavy water back to the house! Bathroom with good water pressure and hot water, as well as fast and reliable WiFi. The location is also great, secluded in the middle of nature (we saw monkeys and hornbills from the balcony!), but still so close to walk to the pier and restaurants. At the end of our stay Poom even drove us down to the boat. :-) We loved our stay and would highly recommend the Best Bungalow.

    I loved my stay at The Best Bungalow! I even extended it. It was extremely clean which I appreciated. It’s so comfortable and cozy and you feel like you’re in your own space in the middle of all this greenery around you. It’s fun to watch the birds and I even saw a family of 12 monkeys twice right on the property. Even though there is a fan and not AC, you don’t notice and the fan is more than enough! Rewadee is so helpful and one of the sweetest women I’ve ever met! She will help you with anything at all that you need and even give you a ride on her scooter.

    The best bungalow are really for us one of the best, especially what you get in proportion to the money. It’s really spacious, nicely furnished, well equipped with a kettle, a small fridge, plates and cups, towels and a big gallon of drinking water. Poom, the host, was so sweet and caring, made sure we had everything and more! We can really recommend this place, quite location with a table on the terrace for eating breakfast and dinner with the sun rising and setting behind the rainforest hills.

    The host was exceptionally nice and helpful. She booked us our ferry and taxi back to Krabi, booked us the 4 island boat tour, she took me with us to the local market one afternoon. 100% recommend. The bungalow was big and clean. Has a refrigerator to keep the water cold. Very nice.

    It was like heaven on Earth 🥰 The best guest house and the best host in Thailand ! I loved to stay there so much that I decided to add two extra nights. The bungalow is beautiful, well-decorated, very big and clean, it has everything you need, it is quiet, the view on the mountains and on the jungle is amazing, it is very close to the sea, nice restaurants and the night market. And the host, Poom is one of the kindest and nicest persons I've ever met. She is so generous and good-hearted. She'll do everything to make your stay a perfect stay. She even drove me around the island ! Thank you so much 🙏 I'll be back, for sure !
