The guest house will provide guests with air-conditioned units offering a desk, a kettle, a fridge, a minibar, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV, a terrace and a private bathroom with a shower. Some units also have a well-fitted kitchen equipped with a dishwasher, a microwave, and a toaster. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels.

Perfect for a quiet retreat. The room was spacious and well appointed as pictured, the swimming pool tranquil, and an unexpectedly well presented breakfast topped it off. The staff were kind and arranged all transport for fair prices. The location is set away from the main town, on a quiet slope, and one can walk to the amazing temple with the towering multiarmed goddess (5mins), to the sunset spot (20mins) and in the opposite direction to pretty Choengmon beach (20mins). Obviously if you have a scooter (which you can rent at the property) everything is even closer. There was even the possibility to do laundry.

    The staff was really friendly and helpful. There was water dripping from the AC and they immediately called someone to fix it. The hostel is directly at the beach and has a nice beach cafe and a little store attached. Very quiet and relaxed area.

    It was in a great location, very quiet and cozy. Both Sarah and Eliot were great hosts & were always there to help out whenever we needed. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay, we even extended an extra night! Great hosts, facilities & a lovely place to stay in. Great value for money.
