Tropical Hostel, hotel in Ko Phayam

Offering water sports facilities, an open-air bath, and free Wifi, Tropical Hostel is a recently renovated guest house a 4-minute walk from Aow Yai Beach and 1.1 miles from Koh Payam.

This hostel is by far the best one I ever stayed in. Almost everyone staying here had to extend their stay at least once, because it is just so comfortable in here. If you like hippie vibes and not so crowded beaches, Koh Phayam is really it for u. This hostel is truly a hidden gem :)) lots of love

Starlight Beach Resort, hotel in Ko Phayam

Located right on the Beach in Khao Kwai Bay of Ko Phayam, Starlight Beach Resort features a restaurant and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar. Free private parking is available on site.

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!

Nitiporn Resort kohphayam & seaagain bar and restaurants, hotel in Ko Phayam

Nitiporn Bungalow is a 1-minute walk from Ao Mae Mai. This pet-friendly property provides rooms and bungalows with free Wi-Fi. Free public parking is possible on site.

We stayed here for a 4 night getaway. This is one of the best places we have stayed in Thailand. The room and bathroom were very clean. Nice deck to lounge on. Coffee and refrigerator in the room and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast buffet had a lot of selection with the thai item’s changing everyday. We ate dinner in the restaurant every night and the food was the best we have eaten in Thailand. Most of all the staff were amazing. We had a slight mishap on a motorbike and sustained a few cuts. When we returned to the resort the staff cleaned our wounds and bandaged us up. They were always sooooo helpful and wonderful. Definitely our stay there was a great experience and we will return.

Phayam Hostel, hotel in Ko Phayam

Located in Ko Phayam 656 feet from the beach, 1.9 mi from Koh Payam, Phayam Hostel has a garden and rooms with free WiFi access.

no one was there at our arrival. we had to wait, someone came up and wasnt aware about our reservation. the hostel hasnt been cleaned in ages, its very dirty and theres sand everywhere. the owners are too worried building a new hostel right next to it and they just ignore this one. we had to do our own check out because no one was there. the rooms are big but the windows cant be closed properly and there were many mosquitos. the only good thing was the price and the distance from the pear (literally 1 minute walking)

Jansom Bungalow 2, hotel in Ko Phayam

Jansom Bungalow 2 features a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Ko Phayam.

Everything, soooo peaceful. Before I came i read the reviews and there was one or two saying bad things? Don't come if you're expecting 4 star hotel comforts but if you like nature and don't mind a fairly basic experience (i think you know what I mean?) You will love it x

    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.

    Amazing, largely unspoilt island.

    Amazing, largely unspoilt island. No cars so get a bike to tour around the island. Visit Hippie Bar Eat at Knock Knock Nok and Sun Resort for excellent fish. Look out for hornbills and sea eagles Take a boat out

    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.

    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.

    Well designed bungalows. Good swimming pool. Nice dining area. An excellent place to see hornbills as they come in for their banana morning and evening. The owners and staff were helpful and friendly. If you come to relax it is ideal. If you come to explore you need a motorcycle. Breakfast was limited but delicious.

    Relaxed, clean and tidy environment. Bungallows clean, everything working as it should. Cleaning every day Pictures correspond to reality Pool clean and working. Environment is maintened properly. Very quiet place, no any noise. Hotel based on the beach, which, in my opinion, is the best on Koh Phayam

    Our bungalow was right near the water so we fell asleep every night listening to the waves! So very relaxing. The beaches on the other side of the island are better, but PP Land Eco Resort is conveniently located close to the main pier and the many restaurants close by.

    The staff is very friendly and helpfull. The last bungalows (4-5-6) are close to the nature and far away from the motorbike noise. The food is very good. Late afternoon you can enjoy the feeding of hornbills. It is recommended to have an own motorbike.
