Whynam Beach

I booked this place without doing much research and with their being a 6/10 rating and only two reviews. It was risky but the photos looked lovely and I was looking for a place near Haad Rin beach. It turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip to Thailand so far. It is an oasis. Unreal location. Amazing vegan food. I didn’t want to leave at the end of my stay. A couple things to note, this property requires you to take a water taxi or off road vehicle to access. That would’ve initially hindered me from booking but I think in the end, it created for a better experience. While I really loved my time there, my only negative experience was with the bugs in the room. The villas are like mini tree houses and not fully sealed so I did have some ants, a worm, flys, and likely other bugs I didn’t see around the room. A mosquito net may provide an additional layer of comfort to those not used to sharing a space with little bugs. But I would do every mosquito bite over because the beautiful experience of staying on this property was well worth it. I plan to be back someday.

I loved the beach area with the secluded cove to swim in, feels like a private paradise. The restaurant was amazing, very relaxed atmosphere and some of the best food I think I’ve ever had - everything is made in house from fresh ingredients. We had booked a treehouse bungalow but they overbooked so our room looked like any other hotel and had no hammock. It was also far away from the restaurant close to the staff housing. It was a whole hike to get up there which was scary to walk through the jungle after dark. This is NOT the place for you if you are afraid of spiders - there was a massive spider waiting for us in the toilet and he was so fast we could not kill him. Getting to the beach itself requires a taxi boat - about 300 baht per person each way (careful as some will try to charge you more) If you love the great outdoors and want to connect to nature, this is the place for you. Very hippie, lots of people dancing, smoking weed, yoga. The staff are very friendly. We had a good experience other than our room.

Vær opmærksom på at hotellet ligger ude i ingenting, man skal med båd for at komme dertil og alt maden er vegetarisk. Selve stedet er meget flot og idyllisk og personalet sødt og hjælpsomt. Dog havde vi ingen steder fået oplyst hvordan beliggenheden begrænsede en plus det kostede penge hver gang man skulle frem og tilbage. Det stod heller ikke oplyst at hotellet var vegansk. Vi blev meget overraskede og endte også med at bestille et andet hotel. Der er intet galt med alternative mennesker, men når man ikke må have sko på, der spilles musik i en rundkreds, alle har næsepierxinger og de samme slags tattooveringer kan det godt komme lidt bag på en når intet er oplyst om hotellet.

Hotellet er pænt og hyggeligt indrettet. Beliggenheden er afsides hvilket vi satte pris på, for at komme væk fra festerne på Koh Phangan. Men dette lykkedes desværre ikke. Hotellet er mere optaget af at holde fester end at drive hotel. Festerne var for os grænseoverskridende, da der var utroligt mange stoffer (ikke kun weed som er legalt) og det virkede til, at dette var fuldt ud accepteret af personalet. Som hotel gæst har man ikke mulighed for at trække sig væk fra festerne da der ikke er noget sted at tage hen. Af den årsag kan vi ikke anbefale hotellet, trods smukke omgivelser.

Die Unterkunft in absolut toller Lage.Der Weg vom Restaurant zum Haus sehr erschwerlich u.steil.125 Stufen.Im Restaurant die Sitzkissen sehr versifft
