    Property was modern and clean. Bed was also comfortable. It is a good location if you’re planning on hiring a motor bike. This is the best way to get about on the island to restaurants and beaches

    There are better choices in the local area for restaurants and use other tour operators as it is cheaper.

    Great room with water given every day. Has a mini fridge. You can rent a motorbike at the property and keep it outside your door!

    Absolutely LOVED this place, it's perfect. The bungalows are new, fresh, clean and well maintained. Staff is so kind and helpful and the location is great if you don't mind motorbiking! It's super quiet, near cheap restaurants (near the 7-11 the market is DELISH and super cheap). Recommend renting a motorbike and checking out all the beaches, the famous Laem Had was actually our least favourite of all the incredible others. Will definitely be back in the future.

    The restaurant is a bit expensive for the portions served and the food is not very special.

    Nice and quite clean. New resort with 3 months of opening. Friendly staff, they were scared of us because we came in with cold, wearing mask to protect them and they related to covid...but everything went well. Room with big windows, Thai design bed very good mattress, yoga bed frame with leather mattress, very nice. Fridge, desk, clothes wardrobe, towels, coffee, boiler all in order. With beach 300mt, but difficult to swim, the tide is almost always low and has many mangroves, the sea water is super salty you can float without problems. Resort inserted in a very beautiful and well prepared garden, close to basically everything. Mo Mo the cat, she stayed in our hearts

    Ahe is the loveliest and most helpful hostess I have met so far. I couldn't ride a scooter myself, so she drove me a lot, often she didn't want anything in return. The food in their restaurant is delicious. She booked me a tour to Hong Island. The bungalows are very comfortable and well equipped. Without a scooter it is a bit difficult to get from A to B on the island, walking is only partially possible. The complex was super quiet, it was so comfortable. I will definitely come back. Thank you for this great stay dear Ahe :)

    It was really good. Only one evening the water tank pump didn’t work, so we called the reception phone and they came immediately to fix it. So very good service.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and spacious room. There was even a ‘yoga bed’ in the room. Good price-quality. Very quiet location surrounded by nature.

    The bungalow as in general quite clean, but the floor at the terrace, the chairs, the clothes hanger and the windows, super dirty. When leaving, booked a taxi to the pier through them, which appeared to be the owner. He helped me with the bag and after arriving to the pier I took my purse and asked how much do I own him for the ride. He gaped with no scruples inside my purse (not that there was much money) and asked me for the double that I paid 2 days before. Sorry, this kind of behaviour is what I hate in Thailand. Would give him a tip. But never coming back and would not recommend myself. Learn how to behave to your guests!

    The bungalow itself is fine, food was tasty and the ladies nice at the reception.

    Ants and flies in the bathroom. The ants could be stopped by blocking a little crack in the tiles.

    Friendly staff, good location (no direct beach access, though) with a scooter which can be rented on-site for 250 THB.
