Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Ban Lak Uan

We were warmly welcomed after a long journey with a refreshing drink and some fruit, our requests for bungalows close together was accommodated and the rooms were fantastic and beautifully decorated. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful, we were able to hire motorbikes and given some advice of where local paces to visit were. The location was peaceful and we could hear all the sounds of the jungle at night and even had a lizard visitor to our balcony every evening. We didn’t want to leave!

Location, nice (mostly clean) beach, plenty of shade on the beach, breakfast

the owner is super nice and welcoming. The place is not far from the beach and you can rent a motorbike at the hotel without any deposit which makes your stay easier.

Great value accommodation in the low season. Its basically a villa with 4 rooms and several open areas and terasses to relax outside.. I stayed for 5 days in the king size bed room with gallant wooden panels with a nice little bathroom. Everything was very clean and the bed very comfy. A Towel and water was provided and you can make your own tea. The place is very quiet and close to the khlong yai keh waterfall and ao khlong mat beach with a few minimarts and restaurants.But I rented a scooter for 250b from them which opened up the entire island. The owner was not there so we had to communicate through booking chat and telephone. But it was really easy and no problem at all. There was also a maid on site to help. Also the two adorable huskies who are living there provide some entertainment and are always up for a pet.

We originally booked just two nights because we were a bit unsure – mainly due to the limited number of reviews and the fact that it’s called a “hostel.” But we ended up extending our stay by another four nights and had a wonderful time! The few reviews are simply because the place only opened last year. The term “hostel” is actually a bit misleading – there are just three private single rooms (with shared bathrooms), so it’s much quieter and more private than you might expect. The host also plans to build a shared dorm on the other side of the building in the future. One of the best things is the price – it’s very affordable compared to most other places on Koh Kood. Despite the low cost, everything was always clean, especially the bathroom. The host was super friendly and always responded quickly to messages. There’s a fridge and a small kitchenette with dishes downstairs in the shared area. Each room has a shelf for your stuff and a fan, and the doors are fitted with extra insect screens. (If you’re sensitive to bugs, you might want to bring a mosquito net – there’s room to hang one over the bed.) We had one of the two rooms upstairs and loved the terrace – it was perfect for hanging our hammock and gym rings, and we had plenty of space to dry clothes. Every evening, a few tokay geckos would show up, which – as you might know – are considered good luck in Thailand! The location is also great – relatively quiet, with a few restaurants, small shops, a laundry, and a pharmacy all nearby. Ao Taphao Beach is just 1.5 km away, and the whole island is easy to explore by scooter, which you can rent directly from the host at a fair price. In short: this is a budget-friendly place that delivers exactly what it promises. If you’re looking for more luxury, you’ll probably need to spend a bit more. But for what it is, we thought it was great – and we really don’t understand the negative reviews!

Silent spot in the jungle. Matteo is very attentive, helpful and friendly host. Very rich breakfast. Beach and fisherman's village in 2 minutes by motorbike. Motorbikes are directly available with the house.

Beautiful quiet little family run business, perfect for couples and solo travellers such as myself.

I want to add, that this hoster makes literaly the best breakfast on the island. So if were not lucky enought to book the house , make sure to arrive for the breakfast, honestly the best bannana pancakes!:) We stayed here 2 nights and then arrived for breakfast each morning after check out while in Koh Kood

Amazing moments ! Thanks for everything !!!

We loved our stay and the hospitality of the hosts. They were so friendly, thoughtful and kind, that we felt very comfortable and welcomed right away. The room was clean and the location was great, in nature, quiet and close to the most beautiful beaches. Every morning the host gave us fresh water, and was always available for questions. On the last day we even got a delicious breakfast, and he organized an awesome scooter for us. I hope we can come back soon, it is an awesome stay. Dont hestitate to book <3 Thank you so much
