Spot paradisiaque, calme et authentique
Pros:

Emplacement de rêve, bungalow les pieds dans l’eau, sur une plage magnifique.
Ambiance chaleureuse, calme et authentique. Un spot idéal pour ressentir Koh Phangan, loin du tumulte des grands resorts et des fêtes. Piscine agréable. Bonne restauration. Nous avons adoré!

Cons:

Salle de bain un peu spartiate mais à l’image de la simplicité des lieux.

Ocentralt paradis.
Pros:

Välplanerad bungalow, nytt o fräscht. Perfekt uteplats. Bra restaurang och strandläget var fint.

Cons:

Poolen skulle behöva en rejäl skrubb, grumligt vatten som lämnade en otäck känsla på huden när man badat.

Séjour agréable plutôt réservé aux familles
Pros:

Bungalow propre et confortable, personnel sympathique, proximité de la plage, chaises longues pour se relaxer.

Cons:

Trop de familles et d’enfants bruyants, mais cela est dû à l’éducation des parents qui laissent leurs enfants hurler sans se soucier des autres vacanciers!

Pros:

Pool direkt am Meer, super Lage direkt am Strand, Liegen für Hotelgäste, sehr gutes Essen mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, günstiger Shuttle Service. Sehr nettes Personal. Alle zwei Tage Reinigung und frisches Wasser.
Wir kommen gerne wieder :-)

Cons:

Manche Fliesen und Lampen im Pool müssten Mal repariert/erneuert werden.

Et dejligt sted at komme ned i gear
Pros:

Et dejligt sted hvor man kommer helt ned i gear. Hotellet ligger tæt ved en lille hyggelig gade hvor der er et par massageshops, 7eleven og nyt og moderne gym.
Personalet er meget venligt og der er en afslappet atmosfære på stedet. Stranden var god med sandbund og klart vand. Restauranten var rigtig god. Der er hjemløse hunde på stedet, men de holder afstand og hoteller fodre dem, så de har det godt.
Trænger man til lidt mere liv, ligger der en anden lidt større by kun 10 min på scooter derfra, men gode restauranter og mere liv.

Cons:

Intet

Bella spiaggia, ma per il resto anche no
Pros:

L’unica cosa bella è che è sulla spiaggia , molto bella.

Cons:

Avevamo un bungalow vista mare letteralmente appiccicato al ristorante e sulla stradina per entrare in spiaggia , praticamente dal mattino alle 7 era come essere nella baracchino che regola gliningressi in spiaggia. Il personale, contrariamente a tutto il resto della Thailandia non è per nulla accogliente. Per dire nessuno ti dice … qui c’è la piscina, qui la doccia, benvenuti. Sinceramente io non sono stata bene. E sicuramente non ci tornerei. Quanto alla signora che è alla reception, ha dei modi molto austeri, ma non è maleducata. È solo che hanno tutti un un po il modo di fare antipatico, nessuno sorride né ti fa sentire a casa.

Pros:

Бассейн рядом с береговой линией. Для Пангана в июне пляж (когда сильные отливы) очень достойный. Имеется отличный собственный ресторан с разнообразным меню (ценник повыше, чем в других местах).

Cons:

Очень много муравьев в санузле. Из еды ничего нельзя оставить вне холодильника: муравьи сразу же наползают. Во время нашего проживания в соседних бунгало затеяли капитальный ремонт, с раннего утра постоянно пахло краской/лаком. В день отъезда с 9:00 до 17:00 отключили воду и свет.

Pros:

Wir hatten ein Beachfront-Zimmer, daher gab es kaum etwas zu meckern. Generell gibt es an diesem Strandabschnitt nicht viele gute Hotels, daher kann man Pen's Bungalows schon weiterempfehlen.

Cons:

Sauberkeit, vor allem im Pool war tatsächlich sehr schwach. Die Zimmer wurden super schnell aber daher auch nicht wirklich gründlich gereinigt. Das Essen im Restaurant war höchstens durchschnittlich und dafür leider noch viel zu teuer.

Truly unforgettable stay, thank you ❤️
Pros:

Beautiful location, perfect in low season. The beach is safe, family friendly. Good food, drinks, friendly staff. Mango passion fruit shake was so good 💛 The bed was comfortable, the swimming pool was also clean.
There is a beach bag in the room that you can use, so useful.
I can only recommend this place, our very first days on the island were the best!
The local dogs and cats are adorable as well. Greetings to Chicken wing and Leo and his brother ❤️
