Pros:

We had the most amazing time at Moonhut Bungalows, couldn't have wished for anything more. The family bungalow was perfect, with it effectively being 2 adjoining bungalows there were 2 bathrooms between the 4 of us and plenty of space. The rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels and water etc, there was a kettle and large fridge also.
The onsite restaurant was delicious, we loved started each day eating banana pancakes looking out over that beautiful beach.
There were other restaurants along the beach that were also lovely, the next one along lent out SUP boards if you bought drinks or food there - the guy there was so lovely.
Also have the options of 7/11 up on the main road for bits and toasted sarnies etc for a cheap eat.
Mae Nam is a quieter more laid back beach on Koh Samui, we took a taxi over to the busier areas which were great to spend some time in and then head back to our slice of paradise.
Also highly recommend hiring a driver for a few hours to go on a drive around the island, we used Mr Pi who charged 500baht an hour. He took us all around the island, make sure to travel up to a high point on the island - well worth the drive up for the spectacular views.
But mainly, all you need to do here is relax and savour every single second, it will forever be a special place for us and our kids and we hope to return one day!

Great staff, great location, great food
Pros:

I can't recommend Moonhut Bungalows enough. We stayed in the family bungalow, which was fresh and perfect for our family of 4 but could easily fit a larger family. The beach is beautifully calm, starts shallow for kids and goes a deeper further on for swimmers. The restaurant has a huge selection (including great Thai food - we stayed a week and we didn't feel the need to go anywhere else). Great selection of board games to be played in the beachfront tent table, or in the evenings, and there's a pool table as well. Plenty of beach yous for the kids (our little ones are 2 and 4.5) The best thing was the staff, they are fun and friendly and the kids absolutely loved them - this includes KitKat the most patient cat in the world, but especially CoCo and Honey who managed to get a smile out of the kids even when they were hungry or tired! Jen is also extremely helpful and prompt in answering, and helped us book a super nice ethical elephant sanctuary tour and with transport. The location is also great, far enough from the main street that it feels secluded and there's plenty of birds to be heard and seen, but shops and restaurants are in walking distance (and a pram can go on the road). Great 2nd hand clothes shop nearby as well if you have packed light!

Cons:

Everything was perfect!

Pros:

Reservamos un bungalow sin aire acondicionado, y el alojamiento se adecuó a nuestras expectativas. La habitación era razonablemente cómoda por el precio que pagamos, y, para no tener aire acondicionado, no pasamos excesivo calor y no había ningún mosquito en la habitación. Estaba todo muy limpio y la experiencia de quedarse en la arena a unos metros de la orilla es muy especial.

Cons:

El servicio que recibimos por parte del personal del establecimiento, aunque no malo, fue de los peores de todo el viaje que hicimos por Tailandia. A diferencia de en otros alojamientos, no nos informaron con detalles sobre excursiones o actividades que podíamos realizar por la isla cuando preguntamos. Pedimos que nos reservaran un tour para ir al parque nacional en barco, y nos cobraron muchísimo más de lo que pagó la gente con la que hicimos dicho tour. Recomendaríamos a futuros viajeros reservar las excursiones por su cuenta, y no directamente desde el alojamiento. Además, la wifi no funcionaba muy bien, y los colchones eran un poco duros.

Smuk natur men ikke komfort
Pros:

Meget venligt personale og fedt at det ligger så tæt på stranden!

Cons:

Der var cikader der larmede på et helt ekstremt højt niveau jeg aldrig har oplevet før, hele natten. Det var umuligt at sove i på trods af ørepropper. Sengene var stenhårde og også puderne. Der var ikke noget køleskab til vand, og vi havde et værelse med ventilator, så det hele blev meget varmt. Restauranten der er tilknyttet stedet havde vi håbet at bruge en masse, da der ikke ligger så meget andet lige om hjørnet, men vi synes at det var nogle høje priser og en ikke så god kvalitet. Stranden var meget fin, men vi besøgte nogle smukkere strande andre steder på øen.

Wonderful, roomy, restful beach huts….
Pros:

Lovely rustic beach huts alongside the beach. Very natural and relaxed. Loved the veranda. Property cleaned daily. Tea/coffee facilities plus a fridge with water topped up daily. Choice of air con or fan. Perfect.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike for us. Fixtures and fittings not fancy, possibly in need of a refurbishment but it is as described and suited us perfectly. Use of single use plastic water bottles a shame.

Cudowne miejsce!
Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja, przy samej plaży, ale też sklepów czy knajp. Domek czysty, miał wszystko, czego trzeba do wygodnego pobytu.
Cudowne masaże. Plaża czysta, dostępne leżaki, huśtawka i parasole. Obsługa miła, pomocna.

Cons:

Koło naszego domku trwały prace budowlane, ale nie były w ogóle uciążliwe.

Pros:

Die Unterkunft hatte ihren eigenen Charme, und der Strandabschnitt war wirklich sehr schön

Cons:

Die Lage der Unterkunft war etwas abseits vom Geschehen. Außerdem hat mir ein Abzieher im Badezimmer gefehlt.
