Great value for money
Pros:

Such a comfortable stay and great value for money. The bungalow was very nice and tidy and very spacious! The whole resort was designed very well and you could tell a lot of thought and care was put into it. Reception staff will also help you book transfers and they are much cheaper than doing it through apps.

Cons:

I had an ant infestation in the bathroom one day, but heard it was pretty common around there. Area is still developing so not much happening in the evening, especially in low season.

Great place with nice owners
Pros:

Very sympathetic place. Nice owners. They are French and have the best tips to enjoy the island. We rented motorbikes and they gave good tips where to go.

The bungalows are very clean and recently renovated. Very well isolated so no mosquitoes inside. The swimming pool is lovely, just as the garden.

The beach is very close by (one or two minutes walk) and it is an especially beautiful stretch. See picture. 7-eleven is just around the corner.

Breakfast is good, they bake American pancakes and have croissants. I’m always happy when there’s granola and not just cornflakes.

All in all very good value for money and a very pleasant stay.

Cons:

Nothing. I read some complaints about the sound of the mosque but we slept right trough it.

Me and my partner loved our stay matcha we would come back if we could!!
Pros:

The room was lovely, spacious and clean. The pool area was super nice and it felt really like you were in nature but still in a good location, near to the beach but also near to lots of restaurants and bars.

Cons:

The only bad thing was the wifi wasn’t great.

The best part of the stay was the location, but that area has a huge range of options at a much lower price.
Pros:

A localização

Cons:

The owners of the accommodation wouldn't let me cancel my reservation (with more than 24h in advance) without charge, even knowing it was due to a flight cancellation because of the war in the Middle East. They told me that Booking.com only allowed cancellations 14 days in advance. However, I discovered an option on the app that allowed me to cancel without charge if the accommodation permitted it. I tried again and they refused.

The breakfast is poor for a country like Thailand (western breakfast), with few options and the same options every day!

I asked if they had mosquito nets in the room or some kind of incense-type repellent and they told me to buy some at 7-Eleven for only 20 baht. For the price we paid, I didn't think that was a friendly response.

For me, it's an accommodation I wouldn't recommend.

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut und das Personal ist sehr nice

Cons:

Es gab mindestens 2 Geccos in meinem Zimmer… Die haben nachts immer Geräusche gemacht. Das finde ich selber ekelhaft, ich war in mehreren Hotels in Thailand und keiner von denen hatte Geccos in den Zimmern

Pleasant place to stay
Pros:

Well placed with easy access to the beach and main road where there were plenty of places to eat or buy things. The pool was nice when it was too hot for the beach, and the rooms were comfy.

Cons:

Only real negative was that one of our bungalows had ants for the duration of the stay, and although the cleaning staff tried to get rid of them they weren't able to. Breakfast was fine, although for the price you're probably better off going to a local place.

Acceptable.
Pros:

Location is brilliant, Thai staff absolutely lovely.
Very peaceful, lovely Beach bars a short stroll away.

Cons:

Bungalow lovely, however shower drainage very poor, you are expected to squeezegy the floor after using, as it floods toilet and sink area, no ventilation in bathroom.

Air conditioning unit in a random spot away from the bed.

Once again poor construction of pool area, no drainage around the pool, hence water floods seating area and soaks anything left on the floor, no surface traps on pool to help eliminate surface debris, such as flies.

A fantastic place to stay to relax and unwind.
Pros:

All good. Stayed in March. Set in a lovely garden with pool. Decent size rooms with very soft comfortable beds & pillows. Owners were very friendly and super helpful. It is moments from a gorgeous, white sand, blue sea beach. It is rocky at low tide but don’t let that put you off. Sunsets were stunning. A quieter part of the island but some great restaurants/bars/massage/convenience stores close by.

Cons:

Nothing

Top Preis Leistungsverhältnis, top Lage
Pros:

Gut gelegen auf der Insel, sehr schöne Anlage mit Charme - es laufen ein paar süße Katzen und Hühner rum, das macht es richtig sympathisch. Nettes Personal und alles sehr sauber. 1 min bis zum Strand, 1 min bis zum Seven Eleven, Massage, Restaurants. Roller von Vorteil. Wäscheservice hat super funktioniert.

Cons:

Die Zimmer & das Bad waren unserer Meinung nach nicht besonders stilvoll eingerichtet, aber für den Preis war das absolut okay.
