Self Catering Accommodation in Ko Kood

Silent spot in the jungle. Matteo is very attentive, helpful and friendly host. Very rich breakfast. Beach and fisherman's village in 2 minutes by motorbike. Motorbikes are directly available with the house.

We originally booked just two nights because we were a bit unsure – mainly due to the limited number of reviews and the fact that it’s called a “hostel.” But we ended up extending our stay by another four nights and had a wonderful time! The few reviews are simply because the place only opened last year. The term “hostel” is actually a bit misleading – there are just three private single rooms (with shared bathrooms), so it’s much quieter and more private than you might expect. The host also plans to build a shared dorm on the other side of the building in the future. One of the best things is the price – it’s very affordable compared to most other places on Koh Kood. Despite the low cost, everything was always clean, especially the bathroom. The host was super friendly and always responded quickly to messages. There’s a fridge and a small kitchenette with dishes downstairs in the shared area. Each room has a shelf for your stuff and a fan, and the doors are fitted with extra insect screens. (If you’re sensitive to bugs, you might want to bring a mosquito net – there’s room to hang one over the bed.) We had one of the two rooms upstairs and loved the terrace – it was perfect for hanging our hammock and gym rings, and we had plenty of space to dry clothes. Every evening, a few tokay geckos would show up, which – as you might know – are considered good luck in Thailand! The location is also great – relatively quiet, with a few restaurants, small shops, a laundry, and a pharmacy all nearby. Ao Taphao Beach is just 1.5 km away, and the whole island is easy to explore by scooter, which you can rent directly from the host at a fair price. In short: this is a budget-friendly place that delivers exactly what it promises. If you’re looking for more luxury, you’ll probably need to spend a bit more. But for what it is, we thought it was great – and we really don’t understand the negative reviews!

A lot of space, comfortable bed, big shower room, cozy living room with sofa. Outside kitchen and dining area.

An amazing new place to stay in Koh Kood. This is an absolutely newly equipped house with everything you need for a perfect holiday—kitchen supplies, a blender for morning fruit shakes, snorkeling masks, helmets for scooter rides, and more. There is a huge pool in the backyard as well as a spacious and cozy terrace outside. It is just a 2-minute drive to the amazing Ao Taphao Beach. Highly recommend this place, looking forward to coming back for a longer stay.

Fantastic jungle hideaway a short walk from the 2 best beaches on Koh Kood. Peaceful location with some excellent snorkeling. Great host who organised trips, hikes and meals, it feels like family.
