Very clean hostel and super friendly staff. The beds were big and it was very clean and comfortable with the towels. Air conditioning is working very well. Super close to the Chaweng Beach. I think it is a great place to stay if you are a backpacker and traveling low-budget.

All hostels in Lamai
Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Really really attentive staff, the homeliest we have felt away from home! Clean rooms and great location in Lamai, had a laundry service (colours separated) and bike rental available with no deposits. Even when we had a punctured tyre, they were quick to help and find a cheap fix for us even with the songkran celebrations. Will definitely be returning given the chance in the future!

    Very great location close to anywhere in Lamai beach. For beds per room, every room got aircon and private bathroom. You can book cheap transportation to Surat Thani or Phuket. Tutu car to Chaweng costs 100B , remember to bargain.

    This is one of the best hostels I have stayed at an Asia. It was beautiful. The rooms are so comfortable, there is a kitchen for you to use and a nice communal area. The staff are lovely and always willing to help. I have nothing to fault with this hostel. It is also in a great location.

    The host was super friendly and really good at customer service. I was welcomed like a special guest and that left a really good impression on me. The Hostel had an amazing view on the beach including a terras facing ocean side. If you're a coffee lover you will also love this place because they have amazing coffee. The hostel also included a mini kitchen with microwave and a fridge for each dormitory.
