I loved my little bungalow on stilts at the Rasta House. The room has all the basics that you need like a mosquito net, toilet, shower and wash basin. there is also a fan that is great to cool you down. Great balcony with a hammock and chairs that you can chill out on and invite friends onto for a sundowner beer.

What a beautiful, mostly unspoilt island, lovely beaches, jungle and no cars! Laid back atmosphere. The food was amazing, much, much better than in Koh Tao where we are now. Lovely local people. A real gem - let’s hope it doesn’t go the way of Koh Samui and Koh Tao.

The Island is incredible - beautiful, lush and lovely to explore by scootie, cycle or walking. Our fav restaurant was The Kitchen Table run by Chioko. Best brusketta and place to hang with sweet kitties and dogs. Also Flower Power has excellent Italian food. We loved our stay in Bamboo Bungalos. Can’t wait to go back! Pure heaven.

Empty wide sand beach, tranquility. It is great for people who really want to relax, great for families.
Rent a scooter to get around, if you want to explore a little more.
Kajaks are fun to have some activity.

The weather, the scenery.
The weather, the scenery. The beaches were all stunning and the sunsets at JJ Beach resort were amazing!! Plenty of good restaurants on the island. Can personally recommend Flower Power and Cha Chai Hime for vegetarian food.
All round good vibes on the island.

Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!)
Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!) The Thai and Burmese that live and work on the island are always friendly, helpful and HONEST. Getting around the island is easy and cheap, whether by foot, motorbike, bicycle or motorbike taxi. The food is delicious, with a variety of cuisines for those who want a change from Thai or Burmese food, many of the foodstuffs are sourced locally, including seafood caught from the sea surrounding Phayam, food and accomodation are very affordable, I have been coming to Phayam for ~ 8 years now and won’t stop.
The location is perfect. The beach and area around the hotel are keept clean. The rooms are very comfortable and I especially like the softer mattress compared to other hotels in thailand.
The staff is extremely nice and will help you get anything you need.
The pool is clean and nice view over the ocean.
Please remember - this is an upcoming tourist area, so not all staff speak English - but then again that's a good excuse to learn a bit of thai language.
Nothing if you are in the second raw bungalows.
We booked for 5 days and looked for another place the very same day we arrived. The location was terrible, the view was to a wall from the bungalow in front, totally overpriced, and they kept telling us that if we didn’t like it we should talk to booking.com. Needless to say that the tv, the air-conditioned didn’t work,… total rip-off.
They are lying to you when the sell the second row bungalows!
The bungalow is a bit rustic as other reviews have already mentioned. However, that was not really a problem for us as this is the case for most bungalows on the island and the general vibe is very low-key. I appreciated that there was warm water and electricity without any cuts. I read it's often the case in other places. Probably the biggest adventage was excellent location, nearby best rated restaurants, bars and cafes with amazing food.
Everything about our stay was great. We stayed 4 nights, the owners and staff were lovely and friendly. Our bungalow and the hotel had places to laze and hang outside. Breakfast hit the spot. The beach was quiet and water great and the restaurants and bars along the beach were great as well. Just a great place to be based out of on the island and to go slow. Would come back!
Beautiful location right on the beach. Simple but stunning bungalows where you fall asleep and wake up to the waves. Very relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. The beach is the cleanest on the island as they clear washed up plastic every day. They also helped us with laundry and booking our ferry tickets.
Could hear the sound of the surf from the bungalow and I love swimming in the sea. Dining on the beach was super and the restaurant food was very good. Bungalows were comfortable and clean. The resort didn’t overwhelm the nature. The cost was a real plus; JJ’s delivered great vacation value.
Such an amazing hotel! One of the best places we've ever stayed. Beautiful bungalows with nice furniture and modern bathroom. Friendly staff. Nice breakfast with vegan options. Lovely beach and swimming pool. This hotel also has a really strong brand identity - quite unique for Thailand!
Friendly and helpful staff
Great location to one of the beaches
Easy to sort travel to the other main beach
Some shops and restaurants close by
Friendly cats on-site and lots of nature! Lots of butterflies, sometimes hornbills
Free transfer to the pier when leaving the property
I liked the huts that were located directly on the beach. They looked kind of cute, minimalistic but had everything we needed. Beach is amazing. Coffee in the morning at the hotel’s restaurant was amazing. I didn’t try the breakfast but it looked really good too.
Owners were really friendly, Great location, amazing food and atmosphere.
The bar is very cool.
They provide drink water for the guests, what’s really helpful and ecological.
The bungalows are very silent and cozy.
Excellent and friendly customer service by a family owned hotel. Good food and hospitality. Nice environment and surrounding. Good authentic Italian food. Hosts deal with any problems as best as possible.
the bungalows are very cute, with a nice garden just near a lake, there is nice spot to sit and eat your breakfast or diner, staff is really kind, not too hot by night in January, near a beautiful beach
The island was stunning. It truly was paradise. The accommodation was nice and simple. The staff looking after us were very friendly and attentive with their job. We felt very welcomed and belonged.
Everything was fine but unfortunately the bungalows were sold out and I had to sleep in a tent which I did not like. But I cannot complain, it was an offer, and I accepted it.
