The location and especially the vibe of the hostel is very cozy and social. It’s not the biggest space but you feel at ease and can really speak with other guests/staff without feeling pressured. The beds were comfortable, the shared bathroom area was clean and the free coffee/tea/cereal was a nice touch by the owner. A last thing is the owner is very accommodating and willing to go the extra mile to show you how great Koh Samet is. His little dog, Telay, is the unofficial mascot of the hostel and I can see why. Overall a terrific experience here. Would highly recommend to any weary traveller looking to get a more authentic experience on the island compared to the resorts.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The host was really nice and helpful. He does everything so that you have a nice stay. The hostel is small, so it’s easy to connect with other backpackers, even though on the island are more couples and family’s. I had a really nice time and would always come back. It’s nice that you have some private space in the cabins.

    Staff were super friendly and helpful. Great place to stay, will definitely stay there again if I ever head back to Ko Samet. The design of the beds was really cool too, had enough privacy and less disruption than you would normally get with bunk beds in hostels.

    This is a little gem of a hostile. Definitely a wonderful low budget hostel with warm and friendly vibe. Comfortable sleeping pods that give you a privet space in a mixed dorm. Wonderful hosts Goth and Holly were always helpful and great to hang out with. Thanks for the advice on places to snorkel and lending me your snorkels. Also bamboo is a charming little dog. I can't wait to visit again 😁
