EEN DROOM
Pros:

Prachtige plek.
Je ontwaakt aan het strand. De bar is geweldig. Ontbijt tot snacks tot avondmaal tot een drankje.

De mensen zijn hemels. Love CoCo.

Cons:

Dat we maar 6 dagen hadden geboekt.
Volgend jaar langer!

Beach hut AC3
Pros:

Comfortable beds & close to sea
Friendly staff

Cons:

Outdoor tables/loungers belonging to adjacent bar placed very close to the front of our bungalow. This obstructed our seaview and created a busy noisy environment. There were LOTS of children! The area felt more like an apartment complex than the peaceful beach hut escape we were looking for.

Bathroom very basic and furniture had seen better days.

Pros:

Un magnifique emplacement si vous aimez les plages calmes et non surpeuplées. Les pieds dans l'eau, un incroyable restaurant. Tous très serviables. Silencieux. Location de voiture sans problème.

Cons:

Bungalows très spartiate, literie de mauvaise qualité qui grince, le stricte minimum pour la salle de bain qui se détériore. Inondation et mauvais écoulement lors de la douche.

Pros:

Traditional Thailand set right on the beach. Lovely restaurant open from breakfast through to evening.

Cons:

Can be a tad noisy, dependent upon which hut you have.

Estuve como 1 hora esperando que Jane me respondiera por WhatsApp, porque no estaba en recepción siendo horario de traba
Pros:

La verdad es que no me quede, me cambie de lugar. Nunca me respondieron por el cambio que solicité a un bungalow con aire acondicionado.

Cons:

Nada

Fantastic Value & a Wonderful Place.
Pros:

The Moonhut Bungalows were a perfect place for our family of 6 to stay. Jane was extremely kind and helpful, both with getting us from the ferry and sitting down with me to help plan our activities. The bungalows were cute and on a gorgeous beach that almost felt like our own. The water was super warm and we spent hours lounging in these bean bag chairs and swimming. It also had great beachfront restaurant and a really good vibe. Plus, it was a very short walk into town for anything else we wanted. It was fantastic value, and our whole family loved our time there.

Une semaine pas plus. C est un dortoir. Et le ventilateur en cas de grosse chaleur est très insuffisant.
Pros:

Le matelas était bon. Il y a aucun équipement, même pas un gobelet pour se brosser les dents.

Cons:

Le cadre est sympa. Mais il n y a rien. Ils sont très désorganisés. Et l endroit est très isolé ( scooter obligatoire). À ne pas renouveler. Et pour 30€ par nuit, c est cher pour ce que c est.

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.
