It’s a private room for a very good price. Moonlight is taking good care of the property and her guests. She is a delight to talk to. There is a kitchen and fridge for guests to use and a pool. The common area is spacious. The place is clear and tidy, very comfortable to stay at. It’s not near a big road so at night it’s quiet and peaceful. There’s the possibility of renting a scooter to get around more easily. The mattress is a bit hard, but there are special blankets available which she’ll put on top to make it more soft. It’s a delight to stay here.

I had an amazing stay at this hostel! The place is super clean, comfortable, and has such a nice vibe. The beds are big and cozy, and the common areas are always tidy and well kept. Pannita is the best — always smiling, super helpful, and gives great recommendations for places to visit, eat, and hang out. She really makes you feel at home. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend this place!

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! ❤️

Very lovely place, extremely nice staff, rooms and bathrooms were cleaned daily, common area is big and spread out around the pool. Enough shade and lots of space for relaxation. It’s a calm and quiet hostel/hotel, also not much socialising if that’s what you’re after. Very close to everything you could possibly need, pier to Koh Phangan is just across the road! Would highly recommend.

EVERYTHING!!! Sam and his wife are amazing, we really felt like family. Also the community and the people in the hostel are just spectacular. We’d always come back 🥰 Pick up and drop off to the pier is also available for a cheap price.

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.
