    It doesn't have an AC, but it has a fan, so it didn't bother us that much.

    This place is very cozy - you get a room for yourself and only 3 neighbors. There is a shared dining and lounge area, so it is easy to make friends and not too overwhelming. The place is beautiful, well kept, quiet. You can just chill here all day and wouldn't be bothered by it. There is a cool waterfall near the area if you want to cool down

    Everything was up to expectations!

    The owner was so helpful and friendly. He took care of us the whole stay. The hostel is in a quiet area surrounded by nature. The location is great as it is in a local area where you can find real thai restaurants with local vibes.

    The place is peaceful and beautiful, the owner super kind and helpful! The area is quite local but has still beautiful beaches and waterfalls. There are also great local restaurants very close. The owner pick us up from the pier for the check in and check out which was a real plus. The free bicycle rental was also very practical to move around. I’d highly recommend to have a break from the touristy and agitated areas of the islands.

    Very quiet if you’re looking for something more chilled and relaxed. Good Facilities and optional use of the bikes made getting around a lot easier as the accommodation is slightly away from the centre. The staff were so friendly and offered pick up and drop off when we arrived and very helpful when it came to any questions we had about the area!

    There’s nothing we didn’t like about our stay. I’d recommend however lathering on some mosquito spray we noticed a fair few here but didn’t cause us any bother. If you’re wanting to get about the island I’d definitely hire a scooter, the host helped us do this at a very reasonable price, we were able to get to the other side of the island and the main Koh Samui spot in around 30 minutes. So many places to see and do around!!

    Our stay was great! It’s very zen, relaxing and out of the way of any noise other than wildlife, it feels as though you’re staying in the jungle. There’s many kitchen utensils including a cold water refill machine (super handy in the heat) The host is super attentive and friendly, he was very easy to get in touch with and helped us with any queries we had. There was also a power cut due to bamboo falling on the wires and we messaged to let him know, not knowing what was the cause and he was at the property within 15mins and explained what happened! There was people outside fixing it before he arrived and everything was back up and running within 30 mins. We would definitely stay here again.

    Great Value, beautiful garden, amazing host!

    If you are sensitive to heat, you might want a place with AC. But I slept like a baby, as the fan in the room was very powerful and it cools down at night anyway...

    Anjar, the host, is really nice, friendly and respectful. He even brought me mini mangos from his garden one day as we were talking about the plants he was having in the hostel garden the day before. Delicious! I really enjoyed my stay there! One of the best things are the free bikes - you can explore much of the island that way if you don't have a scooter. They are old bikes, but do their job perfectly. Brakes working! I was also surprised, that you get a whole room to yourself if you book for just one person. I was expecting to have to share the room with someone else at that price. So it's really affordable. A beautiful waterfall is just a hop away, but you may be tempted to just stay on the property, as the garden is beautiful. Really nice atmosphere there.

    The closer busy area with supermarket is half and hour walking and the beaches are not the best, renting a motorbike is worth it.

    The staff is really nice. Nacho is the best, very helpful and friendly Everything was clean, the rooms have fan and there is cold water and a handy microwave. The surrounding are very beautiful, close to some waterfalls

    Great little property. Rooms are fairly basic but for the price it was great. Lovely communal space at the back with some patio and grassed area. Very quiet location near a fun waterfall where you can go swimming

    Anjar the owner is such a friendly and lovely human being! He gave us a free lift to the pier and recommended a good cafe to eat, and also places to visit in Indonesia (he is Indonesian) :) Hidden gem that looks out onto jungle. Free water fill up station. Free coffee. Microwave. Cutlery. Shared bathroom which was very clean. So peaceful. Comfortable pillows and I slept so well! Rooms are really cool with only a fan. I wish we could have stayed longer!!! :)

    The bugs. Dear Jesus a Moth flew in at one point and it was only short of carrying suitcases, it was that big. But that’s not a reflection on the hostel, the hostel was clean - but due to its location there are a lot more creepy crawlys than other areas.

    Anjar is fantastic he was very helpful arranging taxi to airport and things to do. The communal area is lovely - tea, coffee, games and books. It’s far enough out from the town but it is near a water fall which is a bit of a trek but it’s cool. Stunningly quiet you can fall asleep to the sound of the forest/jungle.

    Individual bedroom for great price. Facilities such as balcony, yoga mat, separate toilets and shower. Common area cleaned daily. Free coffee, tea, cold water, microwave, kitchen utensils, shampoo, body wash. Great Wi-Fi. I’ve stayed 34 days working. I opened the bedroom door every morning surrounded by lush nature, a waterfall and a beautiful garden, starting my days with yoga. Quiet place, peaceful, many birds, squirrels and butterflies. The owner goes extra mile, bringing papaya, coconut, bananas, from the trees. Place provides free bicycle and motorcycle rental, If you want explore is recommended. There’s a restaurant besides - at the waterfall entrance, and a café. The owner speaks English, Spanish, Thai, Indonesian, German. Is one of the humble business people rare to find.

    The location is close to the Nathon Pier, it's a bit far away from the city but overall is good. Quiet and peaceful. The owner are very nice, Oah and Aunja (not sure if it's correct spelling). They have been so nice and kind. They have bicycle to borrow. I was having a hard time with unexpected visitor which was the gecko because the place is in the nature but they were being helpful. I would recommend to stay with them if your destinations are close by :)

    Ajarn, the owner of the property, is an amazing person. He picked me up at Nathon Pier and right away we started chatting and I felt welcomed. The stay was great because, as an online teacher, I always need solid internet connection and I had it! Also, the facility is very clean, organized and Ajarn was always available to help, give recommendations and chat. I stayed there twice and I will definitely stay there again once I return to Koh Samui.
