It looks good as it does in the pictures and you get to see the stars clearly at night. There are cats, dogs, and the monkeys that live there are not hostile. The place also attracts a nice crowd of friendly people to talk to. Breakfast is very good and the staff are so helpful. Really good place to relax and do nothing to unwind. Location is ideal for visiting islands, as you can choose to paddle and walk or swim over at low tide right from the place, or join an island hopping or kayak tour.

I slept in a bamboo room and the gaps made me weary every time i felt a breeze in case it was going to rain. There are some gaps in between for wildlife to join you, so do come mentally and physically prepared!

The resort was amazing for relaxing in nature! The monkeys which came by each day were very entertaining, and we had some really peaceful days reading books in the hammocks and on the pier. The old cat who lived there (I think Somu was her name) was so sweet. We had an amazing experience swimming with the plankton at night and saw so many crabs around the mangrove edges. The sunset on one of our nights was incredible and we loved seeing the huge colony of bats flying over the property at dusk each night. Food was also decent!

We preferred the company of the cat to the 5 small dogs who were a bit loud at times.

Fantastic place - not surprising it’s very popular, just book it! A really amazing experience, very beautiful, calming, and friendly. Came on my own for remote working and found lots of lovely people, including everyone watching the sunset and going nightly to dinner at the great crazy horse restaurant over the road. Extended my stay as it was so good. Boat trip to 3 islands was stunning. Note Bananas is not on a great swimming beach, as you can only swim at high tide, for maybe up to 2 hours a day. Wonderful for sunsets, views and walks on beach. Good food at lunchtimes, and can get cappuccinos at a cafe 3 mins along the beach, when the tide is not high. I didn’t have transport but there was plenty to do, relaxing or going on trips. There’s a village only about 5 mins walk away with simple local shops and restaurants, as well as the wonderful restaurant opposite. Olli the owner is very helpful and really helps to create the wonderful friendly, communal atmosphere. Thank you for my best stay in my month in Thailand!

Small things that could be improved but are totally outweighed by all the wonderful things, so don’t affect 10/10 rating! No shampoo, kettle, fridge or cup in the room, (all the other places I stayed had these, even some quite cheap ones), but instead there’s constant hot and cooled water in the dining area, and a fridge you can use. WiFi was quite weak in the room, depends how close you are to the dining area. If you need good WiFi you may need to sit in the dining area, other people working seemed happy doing that. Or check location of your room beforehand. Aircon was very good, although the controller didn’t work, had a use a broomstick to turn it off, but this was fine. Only a few of the rooms have aircon, again check that you booked what you needed.

- place immersed in nature, monkeys showing up everyday, cats and dogs. Amazing sunsets - very nice staff, chilled and welcoming - restaurant closes after 4pm but there is another restaurants 5 min walk from the location that is as beautiful as the place.

- wifi didn't get to my room and for some reason even my local sim didn't get connection from the bungalow...which was a bit of an issue since I had to work from the restaurants and wasn't always quiet. - room was quiet hot even with the two fans - the food if the restaurant was not super good, but okay

Ollie the manager and all the staff are helpful, friendly and cheerful. Our air conditioned concrete bungalow was comfortable (many simple bamboo huts available). Be aware huts closest to road may suffer motorbike noise early mornings. Other guests seem much travelled and friendly.Wonderfu location in mangrove forest with walkway to pier for spectacular views, and some limited wildlife. No beach but swimming possible at high tide. Long walk across area possible at low tide! Restaurant food good and reasonable prices, but closes at 4.00 pm due to ongoing staffing shortages. However other restaurants nearby, especially recommended is Kongkan Lanlay large restaurant on shoreline 8 mins walk along road, always plenty of tables, food excellent.

The monkeys are usually entertaining, but beware that sometimes they will snatch things!

Wonderful laidback environment! The location is stunning and away from the very touristic spots around Krabi. We spent here more than two weeks and I would definitely come back.

The cleaning of the bungalow could be improved, but it is overall aligned with the structure.

I have started my 2 month trip here , and I came back at the end of my travels. Definitely one of the most beautiful areas in Thailand. So many nice spots around to enjoy good food and views ,and a perfect place to relax in nature.

If you are booking a dormitory , consider that it will be quite hot in the evening as it has many beds and fans helping but it is still hot, so bungalows might be a better choice :)

I was among the few guests at this property. Which gave me the opportunity to have a premium location for my bungalow. Also the accommodation feels like home, which starts after you pass the barrier. The location is pretty, and perfect if you want to stay a bit further away Ao Nang or the famous Krabi beaches.

This has nothing to do with the property, but if you want to travel to Ao Nang, you’ll have to take in consideration that both a cab and a scooter can take up to 30 minutes to travel with to town.

Great setting of the resort, just at the seashore (quite muddy tho but very picturesque), mangrove forest just in front of the house. Great personell, Olli is a superb owner and host, very friendly and welcoming. His stuff is also great, willing to help with everything, cooking great meals and giving excellent massage.

Wifi range is quite limited but it gives you the opportunity to listen to the sea and the jungle instead of swiping socials ;) Amount of wildlife may be overwhelming - monkeys, spiders, crabs, insects but c'mon - it is their home at first, not ours ;)

Rally nice and quiet environment, relaxing is the must in that lovely place. Great place to visit few lonely beaches. nice pier to jump into the water on high tie, see the planktons at night, just amazing place to stay.
