I really enjoyed staying here. I was looking for a more quieter hostel and that’s what I got. The dorms are nice and clean, you have lots of privacy. There is not much like a chill area where you could meet other travelers as well, but I didn’t mind since I wasn’t looking for it anyway. They have a restaurant with vegetarian options as well. Water refills are for free. Really close to the beach. Laundry service. I would definitely come back here.

The hostess of this hostel is the absolute best! I arrived a bit later than I was expecting and she waited for me to arrive at the hostel. From the get go, she immediately made sure I felt at home and the check-in process was super quick and easy! The bed was comfy and clean, just like the facilities. The people in the hostel were super friendly and the atmosphere made it super easy to make new friends :) All in all, it absolutely felt like coming home! One day, when it was pouring rain all day, she made some home made soup for me to make sure I would eat something and wouldn't have to go through the rain 😭 By far the best stay during my time in Thailand!!

I cannot rate this hostel highly enough! It is simply the BEST in Koh Samui. The staff, Wan & Piak, went above and beyond everyday during our stay, from helping us finding a rental scooter place, to asking how our day was, and overall just being such lovely helpful people, they definitely made our stay feel like home ( the fluffy blankets were a bonus too!!). All of the facilities were cleaned every single day, the rooms smelt amazing, and the location itself was very good! We felt so sad to leave here- we absolutely loved it, and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Koh Samui! ❤️

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Very great location close to anywhere in Lamai beach. For beds per room, every room got aircon and private bathroom. You can book cheap transportation to Surat Thani or Phuket. Tutu car to Chaweng costs 100B , remember to bargain.

    This is one of the best hostels I have stayed at an Asia. It was beautiful. The rooms are so comfortable, there is a kitchen for you to use and a nice communal area. The staff are lovely and always willing to help. I have nothing to fault with this hostel. It is also in a great location.

    The host was super friendly and really good at customer service. I was welcomed like a special guest and that left a really good impression on me. The Hostel had an amazing view on the beach including a terras facing ocean side. If you're a coffee lover you will also love this place because they have amazing coffee. The hostel also included a mini kitchen with microwave and a fridge for each dormitory.
