Very relaxed and arty resort. This place is unique and personal.
Pros: Unique resort with reused building material. Very tastefully done. Arty. Very quiet location but still some restaurants around. Nice pool area. Beautiful views.
Cons: There was a bit of a sewage smell in the bathroom of my bungalow. Continuous ‘Yoga piano music’ playing in the communal spaces. The relaxed vibe is there already, no need to push it more.

Little slice of heaven tucked away at the other side of the island. Highly recommend. Staff wonderful & food was out
Pros: Our stay was exceptional from start to finish. Everything from the location, villa, food and staff were nothing short of amazing. The local sea otter on site was a unique fun thing to experience! My daughter spent most of the time in the kitchen with the staff having fun and dancing to Thai music - they were so incredibly kind. Every time we sat down to eat they took her in their arms and showed her around the hotel, kitchen, feeding the koi fish. We truely felt so relaxed at this property. As the hotel backs onto a mini beach the views from the restaurant were so impressive particularly ideal for sundowners and early dinner.
Cons: Steep unsafe access into the pool

Pros: La nostra experiència va ser força contrastada. L’impacte en arribar va ser important, ja que l’estètica molt rústica. Ara bé, l’entorn és senzillament espectacular. La ubicació davant del mar, el silenci, la natura i les postes de sol són immillorables. Les vistes i la calma que s’hi respira són un gran valor.
Cons: Vull puntualitzar que en cap moment esperàvem un resort de luxe, perquè tampoc era el que buscàvem. Precisament triàvem un allotjament amb encant, integrat a la natura i amb personalitat pròpia. Tot i així, l’impacte en arribar va ser important, ja que l’estètica molt rústica, amb materials reciclats i una construcció molt singular, pot sorprendre si no saps exactament què et trobaràs. Dit això, la sensació general és que el lloc té molt potencial però li manca més cura i manteniment en diversos detalls. Amb una atenció més acurada, l’experiència podria estar molt més alineada amb la bellesa extraordinària de l’entorn.

Mal was Neues
Pros: Die Atmosphäre, es war ein Rückzugsort für die Seele, sehr ruhig viel Natur, schöne kleine Ateliers.
Cons: Sehr abgelegen, keine Aufzüge (falls man älter ist eventuell relevant), die Sicht auf den Strand war trotz dem teureren Zimmer eher mau.

Unique and memorable stay in natural surroundings
Pros: This is a very unique property. I loved the haphazard kooky design using repurposed materials and the feeling of being emersed in nature. The overgrown plants everywhere, the abundant bird life, the views from our second floor room out to the sea and the neighboring fields. I liked being able to fill our own bottles with purified water. We had a large comfortable room with giant tv with Netflix etc and a strong hot shower. The pool is lovely but we never used it ; we rented scooters from the hotel and explored all the beaches in the area everyday. We preferred the southern beaches which took about 20 min by scooter. There are some excellent restaurants just a 5 min scooter ride in either direction. 5 min north Sbay sbay (waterfront and massages too) is wonderful and 5 min south Yao Yai is excellent too. Also 2 very simple family restaurants you can walk too . The women who served us breakfast and cleaned were lovely as was the owner and the baker.
Cons: This property is not for everyone. It is eccentric. Expect more of an Airbnb type experience with communication mostly through what's app then typical hotel staff. Nice view of the sea from 2nd floor rooms but there is no beach. Do not expect a beach. Definitely need a scooter but the hotel provided one at a reasonable rate. We loved it but it took a day or two to get used to it . There are a number of abandoned buildings or buildings in progress. The look and feel is kind of industrial arty chic but wild not polished and surrounded by wild nature (which we liked). We were uncertain how to get there and a little more communication from the staff before we arrived would have been helpful. Our hotel in Krabi figured it out for us and helped us and called to arrange taxi. Also a little more info for guests on the area would be nice but we found our favorite beaches and restaurants on Google Maps.

Ein tolles Erlebnis und gerne wieder
Pros: Sehr liebes Personal, absolut idyllisch und ursprünglich mit viel Liebe zum Detail, schöne Bungalows, Restaurants fußläufig erreichbar, Yogamatten zum leihen👌🏻
Cons: Der Pool könnte etwas schöner sein und häufiger gereinigt werden, mehr Abwechslung beim Frühstück wäre ein Bonus aber kein Muss.

Schön, mal etwas anderes. Toll gebaut.
Pros: Toll gebaute Unterkunft. Mal was ganz anderes. Viele Pflanzen und den Blick zum Detail. Der Bungalow war sagenhaft ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Personal war freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Cons: Der Strand ist kein Strand zum Baden eher wie ein kleiner Bodden der etwas verschlammt‘ ob mit Wasser oder ohne.
