- Adèl (8/5): Short stay, cute bungalow - Cute little bungalow, the staff is very kind, the bed mattress is soft and comfy. I liked hanging out on the porch, there is even a hammock. The pillows were so high and rigid, I couldn’t sleep on them (maybe just me)
The bathroom would need update, but ok for 2 nights
The lock is weird

- Alessandra (1/5): Nicht mal wenn ich Geld bekommen würde, würde ich jemals nochmal in Betracht ziehen, diese Unterkunft zu wählen. - Rein gar nichts! Ich würde warscheinlich besser in einem Zelt zurechtkommen, als in dieser Unterkunft zu schlafen. Alles! Wir haben noch am selben Tag um 23:00 Uhr ausgecheckt, da eine Übernachtung in diesem Zustand nicht möglich war. Das Zimmer hat Schlitze im Boden, weshalb der ganze Boden und auch das Bett mit Tieren befallen ist. Gegen ein paar Ameisen sagt keiner was aber nicht wenn Ameisen, Spinnen und Ungeziefer auf dem Bett krabbeln und auf dem Boden sowieso. Dazu hat das Bad auch gestunken, sodass man sich dort nicht gerne aufgehalten hat. Das Personal versteht so gut wie kein Englisch.
- Vicky (10/5): Recomendado! - Hermoso todo Los gallos que nos despertaban al amanecer. Ni con tapones para los oídos dejábamos de escucharlos!
- Frank (8/5): Super Zeit an einem tollen Strand - Tolle Lage an einem super Strand. Sehr nettes Personal und gute Küche. Sehr einfache Ausstattung der Zimmer, mir hat ein Kühlschrank gefehlt.
Ich wusste das alles vorher also keine Kritik.
- Hamo (9/5): -
- kareen (10/5): Nice rustic cabins - Very nice cabins, clean and situated in a good area. We had a fan room but wasn’t hot at all inside. There is free coffee in the garden. Owner doesn’t know a lot of english but is very friendly. We arrived earlier then check in time and gave us the room immediately. Can park motorcycle in-front of cabin.

- Iris Aline (7/5): Fijne ruime bungalow, ik heb hier 4 nachten gelogeerd. Het bed was niet super comfortabel maar prima geslapen. Verder al - Het ligt in een leuk en bruisend gedeelte maar je hebt geen last van de drukte. Oncomfortabel bed, badkamer kon wat frisser
- Evelina (4/5): Nepatiko - Aptarnavimas, ir kaciukas kuris atejo Toleta vanduo nenusileido, nesvarus dušas, nepatogi lova, blogas kvapas, buvo tarakonu.

- Christoph (9/5): - Bin schon das dritte Mal dort, werde wiederkommen
- Timothy Alexandrov (9/5): Нам понравилось домик был большой и комфортный - Все было хорошо. Нам понравилось. Муравьи большие забегали в комнату. Кровать матрас не очень хороший был
- Maturana (1/5): - Impossible de trouver le logement, adresse qui ne correspond pas. J'ai rencontré la proprio qui m'a dis que ma réservation était pour le second hotel qu'elle possède, je n'ai jamais pus le trouver lorsque je suis revenu là voir pour demander plus de renseignements elle ne s'est jamais présentée. J'ai donc du trouver un autre hébergement en urgence ( il étais 21h) et elle n'a jamais voulu me rembourser. Pour moi c'est une arnaque

staff is great and helpful
also free cancellation until last minute and no need to pay in advance
great family run resort they helped me with scooter yoga and other things they have a big hearts
the location was good it depends when one need or want I was lucky and can easily move around nothing really
- Gabriella (10/5): great for budget bungalow - the location is great but it depends on individuals
staff also so nice and helpful
they clean the room daily no matter if luxury bungalows or budget ones. they leave water and 2 towels. coffee and tea are free all day long is but you can also borrow a kettle nothing really for a budget bungalow with fan it was super good value

- Yuki (7/5): Cute bungalow community type resort. Delicious breakfast and very close to Lamai beach - Cute little bungalows on a good-sized property community style. The breakfast is exceptional serving Thai food and cook to order full breakfast plus fruit, cereal and drinks. The hammocks outside every room is very cute and comfy for an afternoon nap if you have the room with just a fan. 5 minute walk from beach club right on Lamai beach but 15-20 minute drive into Haad Rin about 200baht per person. Okay for full moon party though as the hotel is on a main road and everyone knows where to drop you back off The bathroom could be a bit cleaner and on the last night the fitted sheet on my partner's side flipped up and he was woken up in the night to severe itching with an obscene amount of bites possible fleas otherwise bedbugs. You also have to check out at 11 rather than 12
- Ellen (1/5): Bad -

- Lee (5/5): Passable -
- Jaakko (9/5): Superb -
- Sara (8/5): Very good -
- Chris (8/5): Very good -
- Ayman (5/5): ok, but you could find better for the same price. - I like the greenery at the place and the little terraces with hammock that each bungalow had. The places are a bit run-down. This results in the bathrooms not being clean, termites eating the wood, loose tiles, etc. Also, the rooms are not cleaned while there, which is not ideal for a long-term stay. Lighting in the rooms is terrible and wifi is spotty.
- Marianne (8/5): Very good - The two ladies at the reception were very friendly. I also could check in earlier than usual. The bungalow was clean and the shower worked very well. It was located not far from the busy street but anyway it was very quiet. The bungalow was a bit to warm in the night but with the fan it was ok.
- Booth (6/5): Pleasant - Nice staff and good location, 2 minute walk to 7/11 and a variety of restaurants. Smallish beach about a 5 minute walk. Great Air-con. Offered a taxi service to the port which was very useful. Very basic and minimal, really uncomfortable mattress.
- Ahmed (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jamie (8/5): Very good - The area is peaceful. The old guy that doesn't speak English is very accommodating and helpful ,he drove us to the pier with a very good price and he helped us rent a motor ,you just need a little bit of patience and Google translate. The lighting in the room is very dim, it needs brighter lights. The bathroom ceiling needs resealing.
- John (7/5): Good -
- Hooks (10/5): Exceptional -
- Farinaz (4/5): Needs a big upgrade - The price I recently stayed at this accommodation and unfortunately, it was quite disappointing. The facility is in dire need of upgrades; there was no hot water and the furniture appeared extremely outdated. Despite the promise of free cancellation anytime when booking through Booking.com, I encountered difficulties when attempting to leave a day earlier due to discomfort. The owner's daughter, who I sought assistance from, was unhelpful and ultimately refused to refund me, keeping the payment instead. Overall, if comfort is a priority for your stay, I would not recommend this place.
- Annika (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely family owned place with bungalows. Breakfast is made freshly every morning to your order (eggs, bacon etc accompanied with variety of fresh fruits), you can wash your laundry there and they helped us with getting a rental bike. Enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely recommend! Our bungalow needed a little refresh.
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- Rocío (8/5): Very good - The staff is super friendly and kind.
- Rebecca (6/5): Pleasant -
- Giuseppe (7/5): Good -
- Bayley (8/5): Stayed here for the full moon party and was perfect. Staff were very nice. Good accomodation if on a budget. -
- Hooks (9/5): Superb -
- Josh (8/5): chill hammock vibes with comfy atomospher - the huts themselves are very nice to stay in, perfect location especially with a bike. the gentleman working there did our washing and made us feel very comfortable and was super friendly there was just a few ants as the floor had visible cracks in the floor that could let bugs in but still this is very normal in most accommodation in Thailand so is a very small negative
- Yenchit (6/5): Pleasant -
- Guy (7/5): lovely - location and looks could see through the floors so bugs do get in
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Joseph (7/5): Good -
- Pablo (10/5): Exceptional -

- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Trisha (10/5): Great staff - The room was very clean. Staff were super friendly and helpful There is a smell from the bathroom. Absolutely perfect to stay here for a few nights, especially for the full moon party. Great location
- Christopher (8/5): Very good -
- Philip (8/5): Very good -
- Bompanpon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Frederico (4/5): Disappointing -
- Megan (5/5): Convenient enough for the full moon party - It's convenient enough for a couple of nights - nothing amazing but safe, private, and clean enough. If you're visiting Koh Phanang for the full moon party, this accommodation is a great, cheap option. The hotel can sort you out with transport to the ferry port, and to the full moon party. Good wifi and a nice hammock area outside the room. The hotel is easy to locate and is near 7/11 as well as a few good restaurants and some nice cafes (about 5-10 minute walk). The room itself is outdated and a bit uncomfortable (harsh lighting and felt a bit damp). But good enough for staying over the full moon party period. I'd advise bringing your own pillow cases.
- Pia (7/5): Good - We were there for 3 nights, over the full moon party. Good location, if you want to be a bit away from it but not too far (about 150 Baht per person, per way with a taxi). The beach is close, but not too good to swim in (at least during our stay). Sadly the bathroom was still a bit dirty from the previous visitors, which we didn’t enjoy (like rests of soap pieces and hair in the shower). And there were stains on the bed cover, but nothing too tragic. Also we didn’t feel welcome during the check in and check out and when we had questions, the communication was very hard and we were as clueless as before.
- Akkharaphon (10/5): Exceptional - I lost my key at the party, the owner guy rode me up hill to get it, he is very kind & responsive. The venue is very peaceful surround with nature none
- Catherine (4/5): Disappointing -
- Steve (7/5): Ok for few nights - Nice Litle bungalow, great hammocks
Cheap option for full moon
Near 7/11 , cheap restaurant arround Bathroom was smelly
Wifi didn't work
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Sehr herhliche Familie, erstklassiger Service
Man fühlt sich wie zu Hause
Top top top immer wieder gerne
- Verified traveler (10/5): gepflegte Anlage - Die Hütte waren sehr geräumig und komfortabel. Das Frühstück, welches inklusive war, war umfangreich und lecker. Die Anlage war super gepflegt, inklusive täglicher Reinigung.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Bantai Resort ist zu empfehlen - Alles war wunderbar, ein sauberes Resort mit netten Hüttchen und Bungalows mit Klimaanlage. Der einzige Knackpunkt ist, das der Strassenverkehr in den Hüttchen schon mal laut werden kann. Ein Zimmer mit Klimaanlage ist besser geeignet, wenn man einen leichten Schlaf hat.
- Guilhem (8/5): 2 jours à Koh Phangan - Très bon accueil. nous avons bien dormi, le resort est calme mêle s'il est près de la route. Mention pour le service impeccable. serviette propre et bouteille d'eau tous les jours. Nous recommandons.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Mosquito ridden - Stayed in most basic wooden hut and got what we paid for. Mosquito ridden and although we immediately went and bought an extra plug in deterrent and room spray there was no keeping them out as there were gaps in the flooring! Our room had many maintenance issues including no lock inside door, a broken bathroom door handle, tap that sprayed out to side not into basin, the whole bathroom constantly stank from the drains...could go on...
The family were very friendly and refreshed bottled water, towels and bedding daily but most of the time the top sheets we were given were not big enough for the bed so there was always skin available for the mosquitoes to attack!
There was also a jungle party nearby one night which literally kept us awake all night with the loud beats until it finally ended at 6.30am with some exceptionally loud fire crackers!
Place looks better than it is in reality, sadly, although more expensive rooms may be different!
