Super schönes Zimmer mitten im Grünen, nur 5 Gehminuten vom (für uns) schönste Strand der Insel entfernt. Dort gibt es auch viele Lokale zum Frühstücken und Abendessen.
Roller können direkt in der Unterkunfts ausgeliehen werden, ebenso wie SUPs. Strandtücher bekommt man auch.
Gut zu wissen ist auch, dass der private Shuttle von der Unterkunft zum Hafen wesentlich komfortabler & günstiger ist, als die Taxis auf der Insel.
Sehr unkompliziert - sowohl beim Check-in & check-out, als auch beii allen anderen Anliegen.
Wir kommen gerne wieder!
Im Bad war es sehr feucht, was manchmal zu unangenehmen Gerüchen geführt hat & auch Schimmel war zu sehen.
Das WLAN funktionierte bei uns leider kaum, was aber nicht so schlimm war.
Man sollte sich darüber bewusst sein, dass zum "Dschungel-Feeling" auch Mücken, Geckos und andere Tiere gehören, die nachts oft auch im Zimmer hausen.

Das Personal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit, die Ausstattung ist mehr als überdurchschnittlich. Von Spielen, über Klappliegen für den Strand gab es hier wirklich alles.
Der Strand ist nur 2 Minuten zu Fuß entfernt und an der Hauptstraße gibt es einen super Food Court.
Es gab hier einfach nichts negatives zu finden.

Für uns war die Unterkunft wirklich perfekt, da wir etwas abseits vom ganzen Trubel gesucht haben. Die Unterkunft liegt in einer ruhigeren Ecke der Insel, aber unserer Meinung nach dennoch nur 5 Gehminuten von einem der schönsten Strände der Insel entfernt. Auch Minimärkte und Restaurants waren innerhalb von wenigen Minuten an der ‚Hauptstraße‘ zu erreichen.
Die Gastgeber sind unheimlich nett und zuvorkommend und unterstützen bei allem was man benötigt. So konnten wir zum Beispiel unkompliziert einen Roller direkt in der Unterkunft anmieten, uns wurde eine private Bootstour organisiert und auch der Transport zum Hafen wurde geregelt.
Die Apartments sind sehr gut ausgestattet (Kaffeemaschine, Toaster, Spiele, Erste-Hilfe-Kasten, Sonnenschirm, Strandmatten usw.). Die Einrichtung ist modern, das Badezimmer schön groß und es war alles sehr sauber und gepflegt. Außerdem war die erste Füllung der Minibar umsonst und Wasser gab es täglich kostenfrei!
Obwohl wir zur Zeitpunkt der Fullmoon-Party dort waren, war es in der Gegend der Unterkunft dennoch nicht überlaufen, was uns sehr gut gefiel. :-)
Wir haben nichts zu meckern!

Amazing property, and staff were so helpful. Everything could be arranged for you by Tom, and he even has great suggestions around the town and around the island for you. The beach is very close by, and beautiful with lots of restaurant choices.
Property was spacious and clean, and the plunge pool was great to cool off in whenever you needed.
The bed was hard, but this is pretty standard in Thailand. But there were plenty of pillows that helped!

Alles! Man kann das Haar in der Suppe suchen, aber man wird es nicht finden. Von Zimmer bis Personal alles perfekt. Das Nötigste gibt es in der Nähe zu kaufen. Rezeption hilfsbereit und freundlich, Putzpersonal extrem gründlich. Ein Traum, wir kommen wieder.
dass wir abreisen mussten :)

Wir waren 2Nächte im Escape und wir würden definitiv auch länger bleiben.
Ankunft sehr freundliche Gastgeber, schöne Bungalows, sauber und gemütlich. Die Terrasse mit dem Pool einladend. Man hat an alles gedacht, sogar der Kühlschrank gefüllt mit Gratisgetränke. Betten durch Auflagen bequem und tolle Kissen!!
Gefrühstückt haben wir im Siam House, 5 Gehminuten entfernt. Aber an der Hauptstraße gibt es reichlich Möglichkeiten, auch Essen für den Abend zu holen. Und gemütlich auf der Terrasse zu sitzen. Oder am Strand gibt es auch viel Bars und Restaurants
Also für uns klar, das ist hier eine tolle Anlage!!
Vielen Dank
Das es Strandtücher und Stühle für den Strand gibt, haben wir erst am Abreisetag erfahren.
Und die Dusche war kein warmes Wasser.
Aber für mich keine negative Bewertung!!
4.5 / 5.0
Herşeyin düşünüldüğü harika bir oteldi. Odalar temiz, geniş ve eksiksizdi. Kendisine özel dışarıda bulunan küçük bir havuzu (jakuzi de denilebilir) vardı. Dışarıdaki hamak dahi koymuşlardı.
Konumu biraz uzaktı motorla yaklaşık 20-25 dk, bunun haricinde sivri sinek en büyük sıkıntısıydı fakat korunmak için odada herşey vardı.

Tolle Anlage mit privaten Pool. Sehr saubere Zimmer und nettes Personal. Vor allem Tom hat uns unterstützt und war sehr behilflich. Den Motorroller konnten wir gleich in der Anlage unkompliziert anmieten.
Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

The room is very well equipped. It has free drinks, and they give new waters everyday. It has everything you need for mosquitoes. They also have stuff for the beach, like a frisbee and rackets. The outside area is perfect to chill. Sad that we only stayed here for 3 nights instead of 5
The shower gets clogged when you use the bathtub

Clean and comfortable.
Nice and quiet beach.
Good place in Ko Phangan.
Some neighbor may be noisy, some people dont even think they're not alone in the World ))
But It can be the same in any place.
4.5 / 5.0
Very nice accommodation. Pleasant and willing landlord. Without breakfast option, however a few meters from hotel locals provide wide selection of meals for fair prices. Motobike rental is available.
Good beach situated 2 minutes walking. The beach is not affected by low tide as much as other beaches in the island (Summer). There are a lot of restaurants and bars in the beach. Amazing 2C bar with view. Must visit.
Quite far from Thon Sala pier. Driving there might be demanding.

I loved everything about the place. The staff who was managing the place was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. This place is quite far from the full moon party area, so if you love nature and prefer a place where you can unwind, this is the perfect place. Oh, and it is only 2 minutes away from the beach... the neighbours are very friendly as well.

Everything was perfect. We loved the chalet, the pool and the quiet, lovely location. The beach is great too. Tom, the owner, was very helpful and extremely service minded. We rented a scooter on site and went to discover the island, but we undoubtedly loved this particular place the most.

The staff let me check in without paying until the next day because the hotel only accept cash and I was not aware. They are not greedy for your money and they trust you. The manager is super easy, nice, helpful person, he booked my return ferry, made several calls, all for free. He give me good tips of the restaurant, grocery, ATM location etc. The complimentary beverage (soda, beers etc.) in the room fridge are free. I was shocked when discovery that, never seen that before. The bungalow come with a jacuzzi-size pool, amazing green view, super clean, very well wood decorated, good bed quality, super super good smell bed sheet and big bathroom with bath tub. I loved the place so much I wanted to extend my stay but the hotel was full.

Lovely bungalow and all you can need with a two minute walk to one of the best beaches I have ever been too. Don’t be put off by how cheap the property is to rent

The staff was great and we loved the little touches around the chalet (like the French press coffee, the free mini bar stocked with refreshments, board games, etc). Everything was also spotless.
We didn’t like that the chalets were so close together. We were hoping they’d be a bit more secluded, but each chalet was about a meter or 2 apart so you didn’t have much privacy if you were sitting outside/in the pool. The towels were also very rough and scratchy, and the bed wasn’t as comfortable as we hoped.

Very private, clean and comfortable. Facilities included fridge with complimentary drinks in, water provided daily, kettle, filter coffee provided, board games to play and information on things to do around the island. The personal plunge pool was really clean and relaxing to use. Chalet is a 2 minute walk from one of the nicest beaches we have visited in Thailand, shops and restaurants near by also. The owner Tom was extremely helpful, very accommodating and an all round lovely person!

Spacey, clean and modern bungalows perfect for a small family or couples. The outdoor mini pool was a big bonus and the wonderful garden too. Located just a stone throw away from the lovely beach.
No restaurant or breakfast available, which was OK considering we had lots of cafés and hotels nearby.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Good showers. The staff was amazing and so helpful with taxi and other services. Beach access amazing - beautiful clean beach away from the party area.
The pool was smaller than it looks in the picture

3.5 / 5.0
Location to great food, grounds of the property were beautiful and tropical. Shower hot, pressure great, 2 x bottled water provided daily -nice touch.
We were required to change rooms and the second room was of inferior value, unsure as to why we had to change rooms - our booking was for six days. The pool filters were really loud and in need of maintenance. Not much privacy offered for a pool villa unfortunately.
4.5 / 5.0
Luxurious chalet. The free beers and soft drinks in the rooms were a lovely touch. Close to good beaches. A short walk (up a hill) to lots of restaurants and bars. Good bars on the beach. Hosts arranged taxi to drop off and pick up for full moon party. The chalets are quite a distance from haad rim which is great to avoid the crowds. Having your own plunge pool was so amazing.
Also the shower was great in the bathroom.
A little far from the main action.
4.0 / 5.0
This place is wonderful. After a few busy days, this was the perfect hide-away. Since you have your own terras with little pool there is almost no need to leave for the seaside (which is only 1min. walk from here) The room is large and clean and the staff is so friendly. If you need to escape for a while in a green environment with a quiet beach very close by. This is worth every penny!
Be aware that this location is a 30min drive (with a scooter) from the busy side of the island (which I personally love to avoid) but I guess some will be disappointed that there is practically nothing in the neighbourhood. If you need a busy environment and street-entertainment this isn’t for you.
