No TV or netflix as promised..Wi Fi was buffering all the time, just like the only source of any TV, You Tube...Had to go elsewhere to do any business on my phone, Facebook and messenger...They also extorted 1500 baht from me, for the scooter I had hired from them, being hit and dragged along ground in their carpark...Not by me....

My wife and me liked the restaurant, the staff there is very nice and the food is good. The hotel room itself was clean but it badly needs renovation. The holder for the shower head was loose and you had to hold the head in your hand while showering. There was no soap to wash your hands and the air conditioning hadn't been serviced in a long time. It cooled but not really much. There was a white powder applied to one spot on the bed sheet, which I had to brush off before going to sleep. Given the price and the number of stars, I expect something better.

The bathroom facilities are terrible.
Showering would trip the electricity and I’d be in the dark until maintenance could get it back on.
A part of the resort near where I was situated was under construction so hearing grinding and people walking around the room all morning isn’t my idea of leisure.
The pizza from the restaurant was 5 star pizza which was a real positive about the place.

We came hoping for a quiet getaway and we couldn't have asked for a better place to do this than Milky Bay Resort on Koh Phangan. Even though this property is set back not far from the main road, it is so quiet and right on the beach. We could see the beautiful calm beachview from our room. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The free breakfast choices were wonderful as well as the menu for lunch and dinner right there at the resort. The pool was so clean and the water a perfect temperature for cooling down. A few feet from the registration is a place you can rent scooters to easily take yourself around to see the rest of the island. Peaceful! Wonderful! We hope to return.

Nice peaceful stay at Milky Bay. The bed was super comfortable and it was a nice touch to have glass water bottles in the room as well as a refillable water station. The staff were very attentive. The views out to sea on a sunny day are beautiful. The bungalows need a small lick of paint and the window latches readjusting then I would say it’s pretty much 10/10. Breakfast was ok - would’ve liked a better selection of fruit or the opportunity to help yourself to more butter/jam.

We loved everything about Milky Bay Resort! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Room good size, clean and quiet. Breakfast was great with many choice. Delicious dinner options too! Pool was a bonus after hot days of walking. Can't say enough good things about Milky Bay!

I found Milky Bay Resort purely from reading the reviews and I wasn’t disappointed at all. The hotel staff welcomed me with open arms from the moment I arrived and made me feel special and relaxed and were so polite and courteous throughout my stay. The hotel is situated right on the beach in a beautiful & tranquil setting and the views of the ocean and surrounding islands are amazing. I booked a superior room and each morning sat on my terrace/balcony and just gazed at the beach and ocean which was literally 20 metres from my room. The girls that clean the rooms are fantastic and do an amazing job each day. The restaurant which serves all day from breakfast to evening Dinner is exceptionally clean with plenty of staff on hand and all so polite and welcoming every meal I had there. Special thanks to Yu, Go and Ta-Ta who were always full of smiles and polite and made eating as a solo traveller more enjoyable for me. The food here is amazing and that is evident by the amount of people who choose to eat here. The chefs do an excellent job of cooking some amazing dishes throughout the day. I originally booked for 3 nights here but I extended by staying a few more nights as I didn’t want to leave. The hotel is classed as a 3 star but on my experience I would say they deserve 4 stars most definitely. I would most certainly recommend this hotel for an excellent place to stay on the beautiful island of Koh Phangan. Would I return again ? Most definitely. Thanks to all the staff.

I enjoyed my one night stay at this resort where the staffs were very helpful and friendly and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. I loved the food at the restaurant it's comparable to standard in 4,5 stars hotel. With the help of the hotel staffs i rented a nice bike from a nice guy and it was very easy to get around on the island with it. I would stay at milky bay again when i go back

Checking-in /out was fast and no problem. Breakfast was good at the beach view restaurant. Stayed only one night and went out so much so didnt use the pool nor the beach at the hotel. Room is nice and clean with a nice provided mosquito net, and a welcoming orchid flower on the bed. bed is quite comfortable and spacious bathroom. The bed lights are convenient even though quite dark for reading in bed. The room potpourri gives a pleasant smell until it runs out of the essence oil. There are some tiny ants on the counter of the room and the hotel quickly took care of the problem once reported. One small problem is the room door is actually glass sliding doors which are ok when the inside curtains are closed to have privacy. However, there is a small gap between the sliding glass doors which is a bit annoying in opening and locking the doors in addition to the possibility of allowing small bugs/ insects getting through. Hotel provides a free picking up from the ferry, but charges a small fee (80 baths per person) from the hotel to the islands only ferry pier (Thong Sala). Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it giving the price, location and service provided.

The property is really nice. It feels like you are in the middle of the Bamboo Forest.They have a nice restaurant although the included breakfast wasnt the best. The beach area is nice but you cant really swim as it is a huge sand bar.Nice big Pool but watch out for the kids because there is an area that is really deep even for adults.

Terrible hotel, spend less money and stay somewhere else. Room was filthy, blood on toilet seat (not joking), used towels in the room, bugs everywhere. Checked out after one sleepless night.

This hotel was lovely for our stay during the half moon party. It is cute and right along the beach. We booked the deluxe double room and it was very spacious and clean. The air conditioner worked okay, but since the room was so big it did not cool it off that well, but it was still comfortable. The little plunge pool in front of the room was a nice bonus. The food at the hotel was tasty and reasonably priced. The staff was very kind and attentive. This is not a luxurious resort stay, but it was cute and accommodating at an extremely reasonable price.

I really liked the superior room I got. It was stylish comfortable cool and had a great view. The cheaper and the more expensive rooms looked Ill conceived to me so I think I got the best deal. The bar and restaurant were nice. The cleaning staff effective if a little sullen.

I have stayed here 2 times. Both were nice. Second time my friend has his phone stolen from the restaurant. Pretty sure it wasnt the the staff. But other than that will likely book again. Resort is close to everything.

We stayed for one night. We had a problem during check-in. Despite reserving a double-bed room (Expedia gives explicit and separate options of booking single-bed vs. double-bed and there is a price difference as well), the hotel staff did not initially accept it and was forcing us to go to a room with single beds. She claimed that they assign the room when the guest arrives (and not based on the option you use during booking). We pointed the Expedia reservation and the confirmation for a "double-bed". After a few iterations, she finally called the manager and reluctantly gave us a different room with double bed (even claimed that they upgraded us). When there are options to reserve a double-bed room, and forcing the customer to pay more for that option, it looks quite unprofessional to argue with your customer for 10 mins. (We also checked the upgrade claim, which was still available through Expedia and was exact same price as what we have paid to Expedia).
On the positive side, our room was facing the ocean and it's views were incredible. The hotel setting is very nice and cozy.
The breakfast was normal. The location is a 10 mins ride from the pier. There are nice restaurants and bars in walking distant. There is a very cool bar adjacent to the hotel, by the ocean.
