Everything perfect, the best combination of a hostel and a hotel. Private beach (in my opinion one of the best on Ko Samui), yummy food, hostel rooms very clean, comfortable and sleeping there was really nice. Free drinking water for guests in the shared kitchen as well! Jerome helped with everything and I am so happy I spent my time on Ko Samui here. I truly think this was better than 90% of accomodations I’ve ever visited throughout Asia, and I definitely will be coming back here. 11/10

Very clean rooms, bathroom and common space. (2 shared toilets and 2 showers for 4 room, toiletries was available in the showers) Anjar (the host) was very helpful. He picked us from the Nathon harbor when we arrive and dropped us to Lipa Noi harbor when we are leaving and he didn’t charge anything for these. Microwave, free water, coffee and tea in the common area all day long and we love the peaceful feeling of the garden. The scooter that they arranged for us was in good condition. 11 points out of 10.

Everything, but mostly the kind owner who cares about everything at a high level of service. This is a very cheap accommodation, maybe the best you get for that price. I really can recommend it, 10+
