    I couldn’t fault it in any way -

    The NICEST host we’ve had all through our travels of Asia! Amaleena greeted us with open arms and made sure we were refreshed from the heat with a drink, fresh mango from her garden and some sweet Thai treats! We had a lovely conversation and were shown to our room which was spacious, so clean and had lovely A/C! Would definitely recommend! Two minute walk from beaches and some restaurants too!

    We loved our stay on Koh Yao Noi! The most beautiful island, we wish we had more time here. Amalena was the sweetest host and treats you like family rather than customers. Please try the mango sticky rice for breakfast because honestly I can’t stop thinking about how good it was! Amalena offers to organise anything you need, we did an island hopping trip and omg it was so good! We had a private boat which wasn’t even that exciting expensive so we could just spend our own time at each place, would highly recommend. Extra is a good place for food, drinks and live music which is 2 minutes down the hill. The sunset bar which is up the hill is also amazing to watch the sunset and have a cocktail. We also hired a moped but unfortunately my partner had an accident straight away on it and we spent a whole day in the hospital/hospitals as we had to go to the mainland. Please please, if you haven’t driven a moped before, get someone to show you how to use it safely, don’t try and guess yourself :(

    Nice and modern bungalow, Amaleena is a great host she can help you with all the booking and give you tips where to eat. It’s located in a quiet area where there are 3 nice restaurant around, I highly recommend to book the bike with her so you can better explore the island. Also good breakfast included and nice coffee!

    Sometimes you could hear the cars from the door, but honestly it didn’t bother that much.

    Amaleena made my stay in Kho Yao Noi just so perfect. She was extremely kind and helped me so much to organise the cooking and yoga class. She was so kind that sometimes she took me around the island with her scooter. She also cooks delicious breakfasts and lunches. When I arrived, Amaleena welcomed me with delicious treats. The room was very clean and comfortable. They also provide the water.

    My only complaint is with the Wi-Fi strength. We were able to connect but I was unable to successfully post any Facebook pictures and videos while we were there. Other than that, everything was fabulous!

    Amalena was the consummate hostess! She greeted us upon arrival with special blue ice tea and local snacks, made excellent recommendations for local activities and helped us manage transportation when our disparate group wanted to reconnect at a restaurant on the other side of the island, even accompanied my daughter and son-in-law to make sure they reached the right place. She was so cheerful, attentive and helpful. We can't wait to go back!

    Everything is perfect! Would definitely come back!

    - Amaleena and her husband are amazing and super friendly people. The also helped us to organize tours and to adjust bicycles you can rent there, offered nice Thai desserts and cold water every morning - The location is close to both beach and a bunch of really good restaurants, bars and a couple of massage booths; we managed to check more than a half of the island by bicycle from there - The bungalows are equipped with everything one could need; they are clean and relatively new; if you need the room to be cleaned every day, you have to tell it to Amaleena

    We were the only people to stay while we were there as it was a quiet month. The room is massive and very modern and clean. Motorbike hire was cheap and easy. The host went to visit her children whilst we were there but ensured someone was there to assist us if we needed.

    Amaleena is a beautiful host, she grows her own fruit on the property and can help you with scooter hire, island boat tour and transfers from the island to your next destination. She has a cafe attached to the front serving good coffee and breakfast/lunch. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Spacious room and comfortable bed, a small verandah area to sit outside. The accommodation itself was super close to the main swimming beach and restuarant/bar area. Easy to explore the island.

    After 5 nights, we were told that some of the breakfast was not included and we had to pay extra.

    Heartwarming hosts made us a comfortable stay. She had always snacks and ice cream for the kids, organized a special boat trip and rented us their tuktuk. Great breakfast and coffee as well, relaxed atmosphere in the whole place. Some great restaurants nearby, 5 minutes walk to the beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable, everything was in good shape.

    The place is clean and the AC is good because it’s pretty hot outside. The breakfasts were good, and we went on a boat tour suggested by the owner, it was amazing! She gave lunch to go and we went on an island tour–visited several islands around Koh Yao Noi where we swam, did snorkelling and enjoyed the views.

    We stayed at different hotels on the island and popped into Amaleena for lunch and coffee a couple of times whist exploring. We promised Dah we would try out a bungalow and we were very happy to do it on our last night. I wished we'd stayed for longer as it felt more memorable and meaningful than a bigger/fancier resort. The bungalow had a lovely bed, good a/c, it was spotless and located in a pretty garden. It's a great location for cycling and scooting around. They can arrange onward travel and anything else you need. Dah is a warm and charming host, a good cook and a talented business lady too. We wish her and the family all the best and really look forward to staying again.

    the one thing to note is that since the property is on the main road, there is a bit of road noise. it isn’t a busy island and the noise does die down at night, but it is there!

    we loved our stay here! - the rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean - the grounds are well maintained - the beds are firm (Asian style) and comfortable - the breakfast is basic but delicious and the coffee is so good! it is definitely the best we’ve had in Thailand The real highlight is the owners! Amaleena is so warm and sweet and takes time to speak with all of the guests, despite language barriers. She really made us feel like we were the most welcome through sitting down with us and chatting and constantly trying to feed us! We only wish we had been able to speak more! We will definitely be back when we are back in the area
