Reviews of Pano Resort

Wonderful, relaxing, amazing food! Pa is the best ❤️🙏🏼

The most beautiful simple stay, Pano was one of the longest stays we had in Thailand as we kept booking more nights, very easy place to relax! sabai sabai! Pa is the best host! She cooks unbelievable food and makes you feel right at home!

The beach right next to the bungalow, the quiet, the low price

The place haven’t been cleaned in a while, there was still trash from previous occupants. The bungalow shakes with the neighbor’s walk, a piece of wall fell on the ground. The fan was all rusty and very dirty. The towels doesn’t dry well. But what I really disliked is the attitude of the lady in charge. I had lunch there when I arrived. Asked for a massaman curry without sugar. Asked if the rice was included for which they said yes. Had a two fruits shake and asked to fill up my water bottle as I don’t consume plastic bottles. At the end, the massaman was too sweet, she charge me +30 for the rice, +20 for the second fruit, and +10 for the water refill. I would have preferred a heads up for the extra costs. Because of this attitude, I rent my scooter elsewhere and had all my meals outside. Because of trying to grab as much as she could, she ended up loosing a customer 🤗

The whole view, beach and the room was lovely. Pa and the other lady who's name i did not get were the best hosts ever

There is a wonderful view of the sea at sunset, you are immersed in the jungle and there are two ladies, one of whom is also very nice and kind, who take care of everything, prepare good dishes, find you taxis and scooters. Overall it is an extremely wild and magical place.

If you like a wild place, if you are not afraid of a dangerous stilt house, if you are not afraid of big and small geckos in the room, of mice rummaging around everywhere, of other small animals of various kinds, then the place is fantastic.

Best views with amazing owner who is exceptionally helpful

Lovely ladies running this place who helped my with all my questions. Also motorbike rental is possible from them which comes handy as the place is quite far from anything else. The view from the room is amazing, and you can enjoy the sunset from a hammock.

The bed was okay, and I prepared myself for the ants as well based on other reviews, so I hanged my snacks on a nail, but they could still find it. And the rats find one forgotten candy I had in my backpack, so they eat their way in as well. So if you're prepared for these, then your still should be all good.

This has been one of the best places I've stayed in for...the peaceful location, the animals, the staff, the other guests, the superb food and coffee, the social common area and the laid back vibe. It's proper old school Thailand. Very easy to rent a scooter from there, which I'd really recommend to explore the island. The roads are in good condition and nearly all flat.

The bed, despite being a couple of mattresses was pretty comfortable so no problem there. I think the issue for me, is the very thin dividing wall, so it does affect privacy and maybe not so great for a light sleeper like me. However, by my last night I had got used to it. That's the only negative I could possibly come up with, though. It's a great place and I will return.

Best resort on the island!!! A very fair price and a lovely accommodation on both the seaside and the riverside. People there are the best and they also rent scooter, really happy to have spent my time here during my stay in koh mak <3

Lovely owner, see view

It requires a lot of maintenance and a thorough cleaning. Also, I’d recommend not bringing any food into the room. I accidentally left a piece of chocolate in my closed bum bag, and by morning, I found my bag torn open with the chocolate partially eaten.

The incredibly friendly staff, lovely restaurant, and the ocean just a few metres from the bungalow door were the highlights of my stay. Every meal is like a home cooked meal, and great vegetarian options. You feel so at home with them. There are lovely hammocks to lie in and look at the sea. The island is small so easy to walk around and very green.

The bungalow itself is not very uncomfortable. The bed doesn’t have a full set of bedding, only bottom sheet and pillows. No other sheets, just a fluffy blanket which is too hot. The walls are very thin so you can hear the neighbours talking, and the whole room shakes when someone next door walks. There are lots of animals and bugs living in the walls that make a noise while you sleep. Feels more like camping. Some beach chairs would be nice so you can sit in the sun.

Staff are lovely and food is good.

The place is run-down. It's sub standard accommodation.

Everything was perfect. Pa is the best! Thank you.

I LOVED this place. Value for money is very good. Don’t expect luxury. It’s simple but lovely. The view is great. Had a good breakfast. And the owner is simply so friendly and loving.

Water pressure in my room wasn’t great. But that’s probably because the water has to be pumped up because the rooms are all built on poles.

Pano Resort is a small, simple paradise—nothing fancy, just the beauty of nature and a warm, welcoming vibe. Pa, who runs the place, is truly special: always busy, always smiling, and genuinely happy to make her guests feel at home. It’s a rare and heartfelt place, full of charm and kindness.

Adorable as it is

Thank you for everything!

The host were lovely, the food was amazing and the view and sunset are worth way more than the price

Nothing
