I - Talay Taling Ngam Samui - เขา ป่า นา เล ตลิ่งงาม สมุย

Very calm and friendly staff ! They were attentive to all our needs, if you want to relax and experience the real Thai life, I would recommend this little jewel :) my husband and I felt welcomed and well taken care of.

Staff, sound of nature and beach were all amazing !

From the cabin to the water; 10 steps. Enough said. The place has everything a solo traveler needs. Pang; the man who runs the place and his family was super nice and helpful with everything. The restaurant is great you can eat what the locals caught on the beach the night before. This is a very peaceful side of the island. The beach is to die for, super peaceful and so clean. Swim, run, and see locals catching crab. Get a massage on the beach, (amazing), the lady also rents motorbikes at great prices. Walk on the pier nearby and see tons of fish. 10 minute walk or 2 minute motorbike ride to a nearby restaurant called Peth's restaurant; the owner Peth is a sweet lady who speaks great English. There is a pool table and good local food. On the way there, you can drop your laundry at a self-service place with brand-new machines for 30 baht. Pick it up after lunch. 7/11 is a 5-minute motorbike ride. Motorbike ride to Lamai Beach is 25 min, anywhere else is just 35 minutes really. Taxi to Nathon Pier is 600 baht if you are island hopping. Ask the restaurant to book the taxi for the next day, mine showed up 15 mins early. I can't say enough good about this place, I'll be back next time.

Nothing to dislike here. Everything was in order, and cared for, if you enjoy the simple things you will like it too. Spoiled travelers may need a resort experience.

If you want to get away from the crowds and really relax this place is perfect. The bungalows are simple but clean and cute, AC works great. The food at the restaurant was really good. The staff is lovely and they have pets all over the place!

I wish they had ferry transfer services and more variety of tours at more affordable prices.

Nice place for stay away from people with clean beach.

Too far from any market and restaurants

Being directly on the beach was beautiful, however overall location was unfortunate as it was extremely remote and nothing was in walking distance. Initially seeing the recycling culture and artworks was a positive but then realised this wasn’t being practised anymore as - for example - everyday we were given small plastic bottles of water.

We didn’t feel very welcome. There was more staff than guests and communication was a struggle. Being so remote we asked for help getting a scooter and were offered overpriced rentals the next day. I had a parcel sent there that didn’t arrive during our stay and even though I informed them it will be arriving they refused to receive it and it got sent back. Overall we were really looking forward to staying here but we’re disappointed on all sides.

Loved being directly on the beach. Clean cute room. Also a restaurant to chill and watch the sea. Good swimming. Private. Located on the quiet part of the island but close to temples, yoga and other recreational activities and restaurants.

Only that when it rained I had to move inside. Not their fault. lol.

In the beach

The airco did not work the first night so we had to move.

the place is very quite and private. the staffs are very helpful
