We chose this hotel to be not too far from the airport and bang wrong pier. It ended up that the taxi driver was lost so it was more expansive than going to phuket town. Going to the pier was a total rip off since we where stuck in the middle of nowhere with only hotel taxi ( no meter) so we could not bargain the price. We chose the fabric room, the cheapest option (still really expensive in high season). We love camping and really dont care about bugs but ugh.... the first tent they gave us was infested with red ants carrying their eggs around ! When we told the lady she just sprayed poison all over it... I ask for an other one and this one was clean. But the shower (the only one) also infested with red ants ouch, if you dont know yet how it feels to be stung by those... try that ! Toilet was dirty. Staff was just ok didn't speak much english the owner is never there. The beach is perfect, not crowded, with only beautiful resorts around. If you want to eat cheaper and better there is a good option 300m north with local food. The fabric room is not a good option if you want a minimum of comfort, the "mattress" was thinner than my bath mat at home: really hard, and the tent is in the hot sun from sunrise to sunset. I feel sorry to leave this bad comment for the people who work there... but it was not what I expected for the price.
The Micky Monkey is a unique property. Our room was clean and air conditioned with a heat pump. It's directly on the beach. There is a restaurant / bar onsite. There are only a dozen or so private rooms and if you are looking for a quiet, authentic experience, this is perfect.
Nice little property on the beach between the extremely expensive hotels. The little primitive wooden bungalows have a mattress mosquito net and a coat hanger inside. Thatâs what youâre paying for the toilet and the shower are outside but are part of your rental. I didnât mind it. Location pays for everything as you step outside. Youâre on the beach. The beach was empty, but Iâve never got to enjoy it because of the windy rainy days. I would definitely go back. If you want five star pay the $500 a night next door.
The staff was wonderfully, going so far as to include us in a birthday party celebration for one of there staff. Asked about our days plans in the morning and asked in the evening how it was. The cabins are air c9ndioned and clean. We had our own bathroom. The food was top notch as were the drinks. They made sure we had fresh bottled water everyday. The beach in the morning when no one else was awake was spectacular. We had tea and snack on the beach front in comfy chairs. We also got Thai massages and those ladies rock, it was a blast we hated to leave and desperately want to come back soon.
Posto bello sul mare e personale gentilissimo, ma...
- Il materasso Ăš posato direttamente sul pavimento
- le camere sono molto piccole
- i bagni (privati ma esterni) sono grandi ma molto spartani
- si arriva solo con taxi
Vantaggi:
- posto romantico con bungalows di bambu
- silenzioso, solo rumori della natura
- con molti animali: cani, galli e galline, divertente!
- personale molto gentile
I had the time of my life here, I enjoyed it so much, everything was just perfect, the beach, the people, the bamboohut, the food and even the roosters who was scrieming at 3.30 in the morning could not make me feel angry, I loved the sound. I felt like brooke shields in the blue lagoon.
We knew this would be very basic accommodation and were okay with that, but some improvements would help. We paid for 2 nights but no one ever came by the second day. The shower area could have used some hooks and a shelf as it was difficult to find anywhere to put your clean clothes, etc so things wouldn't get wet. Likewise in the cabin. Everything had to go on the floor which was scarce to begin with. However, the air conditioning worked great and the mosquito netting was appreciated.
We had the hut right on the beach. It was clean and was a perfect location to feel like you had escaped reality. Its a very paradise feel place. As long as you dont want busy..it is perfect as there is not anything close by. Lovely location. Staff very helpful.
Not for everyone! But definitely for nature lovers! Absoutely amazing location, right on the beach (which is amaizng and there is almost NO people, seriously!), in the middle of forest. Cool bangalows, very clean (a bit small). The whole place was sooooo nice and chill!
However you have to notice, there will be a lot of bugs or ants in the bathroom/toilet (as it's outside) -suprisingly, only a few ants in the bungalow (don't leave any food inside) and there is a mosquito net. Beside that, it's pretty nice to get a shower outside.
Wi-fi available everywhere (cool!), but not that strong.
Very friendly and nice stuff, especially young people in the restaurant :) Fully recommend this place!
Bamboo huts were basic but comfy, with air con, a fan and mosquito net.
Right on the beach, which was pretty quiet.
Food was average but there was a nice relaxed atmosphere.
