Guest Reviews

• Luka (10/5): Staff is super nice, everything is clean, and functional, you can use kitchen, location is great across the street from - Staff is super nice, everything is clean, and functional, you can use kitchen, location is great across the street from night market and fighting stadium. Have possibility to rent a motorcycle. One of best stays i have been in. Sincere recommendations.
• Silvia V. (9/5): -
• Benjawan (10/5): - ถ้ามีผ้าม่านระหว่างเตียงจะดีมากเลยค่ะ และห้องน้ำน่าจะอยู่ข้างนอกห้องนอน แต่โดยรวมโอเคมากเลยค่ะ ชอบที่นอนกับผ้าห่มมากกกกก

• Eduardo Alberto (10/5): -
• Eric (10/5): -
• Kervarec (8/5): - Pas de rideaux pour un petit peu d’intimité
• Roger (9/5): Hostel bien situé et bon rapport qualité/prix - Hostel très bien situé et très bien agencé, que ce soit avec des frigos et même une cuisine . L’eau, le thé et le café (ainsi que des biscuits) sont aussi offerts dans le prix On entend dans les chambres un peu le bruit des voitures sur la route centrale. Les parties communes, bien que très bien aménagées, n’engagent pas la possibilité de rencontrer facilement d’autres voyageurs…

• Melody (8/5): Great hostel, would recommend - I actually loved this hostel. Was so clean, staff were so nice and good location. Each room also had own bathroom, as i was sharing with girls it was so nice and kept clean. The only bad thing i can say is the beds didn’t have any curtains on… So no privacy at all. Some of the girls in my room came back later or woke up earlier than me and turned light on which woke up everyone.
• Elise (10/5): - Un petit hostel qui mérite une grande note : c'est propre, c'est calme, c'est super bien situé ! Les lits sont confortables Nous sommes bien tombés : avec des gens respectueux. Nous avons adoré Khao Lak. La réceptionniste est toujours souriante et agréable, prête à aider. Je recommande ! Point d'amélioration : des rideaux pour les lits pour plus d'intimité. (mais dans la chambre de 4 , nous étions tout de même très bien)
• Dennis (6/5): Good place, but roommates wasn’t respectful at all - It’s was close to the beach, the staff and the owner was amazing nice really just love for them ❤️ Unfortunately my Roommates wasn’t respectful and I had often discussed with other guest that they should’ve turn their phone on mute in the middle of night
• Lucy (9/5): - Good location, comfy beds, free snacks. Would have preferred curtains on the bunks for privacy.
• Anna (10/5): -
• Alexandre (9/5): -
• Jamie (7/5): -
• Ian (6/5): - Clean, friendly staff The mattress on the bed was hard as a rock, It was difficult to sleep, also the AC was a bit funny
• amran (10/5): -
• Mario (8/5): - Die Duschhandtücher haben fast kein Wasser aufgesaugt.
• chris (10/5): I booked one night here after a few days on the road, and decide to rest and stay another two nights - Everything was perfect. Spotlessly clean, kitchen, good wifi, amazing staff! Every tour, bus etc service and bike rental. I can't fault anything.
• chris (10/5): Everything you need 😎 - Everything was perfect 👌 I have zero complaints :)
• Yuka (10/5): My fav hostel - The cleaners come everyday to clean the hostel. They have a decent kitchen so I cooked basic thai curry and breakfast to save money too. I liked this place and wanted to surf so I stayed there for two weeks, which is the longest stay at a hostel in my life. I felt comfortable there ;) The reception area/ a dining space can emphasize the sound. You can hear ppl talking in rooms upstairs. Maybe something that you can improve even for a better place to stay? :)
• Marion (9/5): -
• Steve (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paloma (9/5): Superb - Location is great and staff was nice. I booked 2 tours through them and they were good. Room was quite clean although no curtains on the bunkbeds.
• Paloma (9/5): Superb -
• Daniel (9/5): Superb -
• Yazid (10/5): - Personnel aimable et souriant, très propre Et une juliefunni innatendue, bonne surprise
• Paula (9/5): Superb - Great value for money. Dorm was a little small but had everything it needed. Beds, locked storage, socket near the bed and a bathroom.
• Sophie (9/5): Superb -
• Elias (8/5): Very good - Super friendly stuff U have to know that u are next to a "taxi stand" but it's not annoying
• Sam (8/5): Very good - Very nice staff who were constantly cleaning the place top to bottom with free hot drinks etc and decently comfy beds. No curtains on beds. Smelly drain in the bathroom caused the room to stink. Didn't turn the AC on in communal areas so was boiling hot.
• Samuel (10/5): It was a clean well maintained hostel. I’m glad there was availability. - Eveythibg was good. It was smooth from the check in to checkout. No problems whatsoever.
• Oscar (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mark (9/5): Nice stay in Khao Lak - Excellent location by Bang Niang market Small room sizes (I was in a 4 bed) Good AC No curtains on beds but not really an issue
• Johanna (9/5): Good choice for Khao Lak - Very clean, comfortable beds, normal shower. The hostel has free water & coffee which is a nice add on. The location is great, very close to the main road but still a bit quiet. I also liked the free towels and the nice girl working at the reception. No curtains ;-) but you can see that on the picture. I think curtains would improve this hostel a lot. Especially because the 4 bed room is not the biggest and you feel quite close to your roomies.
• Anne-julie (8/5): Great for the price - It's so nice to finally have access to a kitchen in a hostel in Thailand! The kitchen is definitely a plus. They also offer free water, cookies, coffee and tea. I also enjoyed the reception area, where I was able to work without too many distractions. The staff is really nice, they even agreed to receive a package for me prior to my arrival and were super helpful throughout my stay. The whole place is kept super clean. Located across the street from the Bang Niang market. Simple hostel, with simple rooms. Would be nice to have curtains around the beds for extra privacy. The water pressure wasn't the best in the bathroom, making it a bit of hassle to brush your teeth and shower.
• Frances (8/5): Nice - Great location and free snacks/coffee was lovely No curtains on beds
• Zoe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Brennan (10/5): Lovely Place - Very clean and the owner was very nice!

• Parish (10/5): Exceptional - The common areas had lots of room to lounge, had a kitchen and spare bathroom.Gift was really helpful and easy to get ahold of.
• Sophie (7/5): Nice hostel - Clean. Comfortabel. Staff easy to reach on WhatsApp In desperate need of privacy curtains
• Martina (9/5): Superb -
• Jenny (9/5): Lovely stay - I found this such a lovely place to stay, I was skeptical about lack of curtains to begin with but the friendly environment and super helpful staff made this hostel worthwhile. Clean, great location and very helpful owner who helped me arrange a taxi at an unsociable time. Free water and snacks too. No curtains for privacy if this will be an issue for you

• Lucy (6/5): Okay - Basic but clean hostel in the centre of Khao Lak. Sadly, the staff just weren't helpful or friendly. Didn't seem like they wanted to be there at all.
• Stav (8/5): Very good -

• Saifuddin (8/5): Very good -
• Sol (10/5): Exceptional hostel! Dkaya Hostel surpasses others with its cleanliness, organization, and professional management. The - Just perfect for a dormitory style hostel, it serves way better than other hostels. Extremely clean, well organized, you can see that it is run professionally. Staff is kind and amazing. Dkaya hostel will even help you book the tours in advance and they recommend you good ones! Trust worthy Nothing to complain about!
• Matt (10/5): Exceptional -
• Fay (10/5): Incredible people working there - nothing too much trouble to make your stay pleasant and easy 10/10 👏 - Quiet and convenient location. Extremely friendly and accommodating colleagues 😁😁
• Maddison (10/5): Clean and comfortable - Very clean hostel with super friendly staff/owners. A huge bonus for having cooking facilities and a guest fridge, as well as free snacks and drinks. The location is great - just off the main street so slightly quieter than other places, while still being in a busy area. There’s not much privacy in the dorms as the beds don’t have curtains
• Sophie (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was very clean and the staff was very kind. Communication worked perfectly and they also gave me good advice how to get to Phuket airport with the public bus.
• Michael (9/5): Superb - Friendly personnel, nice location, good aircon, small snacks available Lack of curtains for a little more privacy
• De (10/5): Very good place. -
• Frec92 (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location. Best price to explore the islands. Staff members helped me to solve a problem. Food and drinks are always available.

• Lucrezia (10/5): Cleanest hostel ever - It is probably the cleanest hostel I have ever staid in. The mattress is super comfortable, there is a kitchen and even a hairdryer. Everything super clean and comfortable They could fix the shower holder if I really have to find something
• Giovane (10/5): Exceptional - The staff is amaaaaazing! Very helpful and friendly!
• Flaherty (10/5): Exceptional -
• Reynald (10/5): Best value for money - Best value for money! Very clean place
• Manuela (9/5): Nice location and very clean - Nice location Friendly staff Possible to rent motorbikes Very clean
• Carmen (8/5): Lovely, chill stay!! - A lovely, comfortable stay that is close to the Tsunami Memorial Museum and market. Staff were very kind in helping me book my transportation back to Bangkok and even went out of their way to drop me at the bus stop, very kind! Access to the kitchen and free coffee, tea and biscuits Had an instance where there were no toilet paper in the bathroom and staff was not in facility to ask.
• Emily (10/5): Lovely! Prime location and great staff. Beds were super comfortable also - Really lovely staff on WhatsApp and also at the hostel. Perfect location and nice aircon
• Leonardos (9/5): Recommended budget-friendly stay in Khao Lak - Very friendly staff and everything super clean and tidy! There is free coffee, tea and snacks all day round which is highly appreciated. Likewise it's possible to refill your water bottle with bottled water. It's possible to use the kitchen to cook or store food in the fridge. There are lockers in the room each with its own key. There are also plugs next to each bed. The location is central in Khao Lak which makes it ideal to explore the area on foot. It's possible to book tours via the hostel at lower than average prices (wish I knew that beforehand).
• 47victor (10/5): Exceptional - The room is pretty comfortable, with good ac and it's clean. Bathroom is also clean and good. They have lockers you can put your things inside. The reception area is also pretty Fine. Hostel is near many places and restaurants. And the owner is such a gentle and kind person, she helped me with booking my bus.
• Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Arthur (10/5): Exceptional - The hostel is small, clean and quiet. It has a well equiped kitchen and spacious rooms with a balcony. In general they already thought about every little thing that a guest may need. However the best part is Gift, the owner, she is a really nice person who loves receiving guests. She helped us out like a five star resort concierge and even gave us a ride! It was one of the best hostel experiences I ever had! My staying was just perfect.
• Nikola (8/5): Very good -
• Andrstravel (10/5): Fantastic place. Great owner, clean, super located, great prices for the tours. Everything 10/10 - Fantastic! The owner is super friendly. She helped me to go to the center and to the hospital. Also, she offers some tours that had the best price I could find. The tours to Surin and Similan islands were super fabulous. I loved my stay in this place. Nothing.
• Johanna (7/5): Good -
• Antoinette (9/5): Cleanest hostel I've stayed in! - Very friendly and helpful staff, incredibly clean, close to nightmarket, nice kitchen area for use, free snacks and hot drinks, quiet area. No curtains on bed, but not a big issue.
• Josephine (7/5): Good - Location was all right - close to the night market and "main street", and a 10-15 min walk to the beach. Complimentary coffee, tea, water and snacks. Beds where really noisy and woke me up multiple times. Bathroom where in the room and was very humid and quite smelly. Said that I was able to rent a scooter, but seemed like they only had one - and when the owner told me I could have it the day after, she had already given it to somebody else.
• Rachel (7/5): Good -
• Zeb (5/5): Mediocre - The girl volunteering her time there helped me book transportation Small place, doesn’t seem like anyone on staff is ever around. Lights in the room didn’t work.
• Ori (10/5): Exceptional - The girl at the reception was so kind and helpful! She made sure I go on the right bus at 6am, standing with me at the main road until the bus arrives. The room was simple and comfortable
• Trish (10/5): Great stay and location! - Very close to the market, 7-11, Tsunami memorial. Great price for excursion to Similan and Surin Islands.... Def recommend Surin if you can only do 1. Short walk to the beach. The owner was super helpful getting a cab, info, tours. There is even a kitchen, if you choose to cook, coffee, tea water,cookies for free... anytime. Absolutely nothing!
• Andrew (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great. The place is very clean and comfortable:) the staff is super friendly! And the location is great! 10 out of 10. Just a friendly suggestion to add a bit more privacy such as curtains to the beds. But that’s not critical:)
• Georgi (10/5): Best Hostel Ever - The staff was very helpful in organizing some trips in a good price for me. Which safed me a lot of time that i could enjoy Khao lak even more. Huge thanks for everything :)
• Beatriz (9/5): Lovely stay - Really nice hostel. Comfortable beds, everything clean and the location is perfect for going to the beach, walking to restaurants and also very easy to take the bus or book transportation to other places. The only bad thing is that there's only one toilet/shower per room. But there is a wc by the reception.
• Kaja (8/5): Good value for money - - probably the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in so far (in SE Asia) - very friendly staff - free snacks and drinks (coffee, hot chocolate, water..) available by the reception - small balcony that you can use to dry your things - A/C in the room - plugs and light by each bed - lockers - basic kitchen and fridge that you can use - close to 7- eleven and market (open every second day) - no curtains by beds - you feel when someone moves in the bed - there are only two dormitories- with 4 and 6 beds; if you get one with 6 beds the lockers are half size of the ones in the other room (I could fit my backpack easily in the locker in small dorm but when I moved to the other one, I could not do it
• Emre (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alejandro (8/5): Very good -
• Meirovich (6/5): Pleasant -
• Sachin (7/5): Comfortable stay in Khao Lak - The location was great, right opposite the night market. Beds were comfortable as well and I enjoyed the free biscuits and coffee. The shower lacked power and sometimes there wasn't any hot water. There was also a weird smell in the bathroom and quite off putting.
