How was the booking process handled?: Good and efficient although I was initially nervous as there was no secure checkout. As it turned out I had nothing to worry about!
Other comments about the hotel: A lovely, peaceful retreat on the north of the island. Stunning gardens and snorkelling directly off the beach. A friendly family who are keen to help you learn Thai and cook the most incredible food! We have yet to find food as authentic and tasty after a few weeks still in Thailand! Motorbike rental is cheap and they won t rip you off. Cannot recommend Coconut Beach Bungalows highly enough! [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?:
Other comments about the hotel: Great location, if you plan on staying in one spot. It s hard to get around from here, and to get into town you must rent a scooter, or wait a very long time for a taxi. The beach however is perfect!The owners are very nice, and are willing to help if needed. English is not spoken very well here, and there were many misunderstandings. There was a fight behind our dinner table between the members of the staff, pushing and shoving and yelling at each other. This is a family business, and you must take is for what it is. You also must eat at their restaurant. So don t plan on going down the beach to any of the other resorts for dinner. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: No problems!
Other comments about the hotel: Coconut beach is a retreat away from everything where you lead a simple life; no hot water, no electricity except for between 18.00 and 22.00, etc. It s as far as you can get from the pier and the road is partly really bad. If you can live with this and loves really good Thai food, friendly and personal atmosphere, relaxed beach life and beautiful scenery this is the place! This was our 3rd time...

Other comments about the hotel: Wonderful staff! Wonderful rooms! Great location!My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights and it was great! The rooms are super clean and very nice. The staff was helpful and very friendly. The hotel offers free wifi in the lobby/chillout/restaurant area. It is very cozy and the food is delicious and quite cheap. The beach bar is awesome. The cocktails were superb and the ambiance is amazing. The beach is not good for swimming since it is very shallow, but it is still very pretty. The location of these bungalows is great. Thongsala and Ban Tai are very close, and Haad Rin is only 20 min away by taxi. Will come back here again!!! [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: This little hotel was wonderful. We arrived late at night and they greeted us with such hospitality. We couldnt have asked for a more picturesque setting. The food was lovely and extremely well priced. It was close enough to Tongsala and Haad Rin that we rented a scooter for the day and travelled. We definitely will be back and will most certainly stay here again. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: Booking service was good, although pick-up promised but not delivered. Communication problem between booking service and hotel?
Other comments about the hotel: Basic bungalows, not the cleanest. Good location if you are looking for a pretty beach and relaxation. Easy to get a taxi back from Haad Rin after Full Moon - 200 baht. Staff friendly but not very efficient. Food good but slow to come. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: wonderful!
Other comments about the hotel: I consider my wife and I to be very adaptable travellers, BUT Coconut Beach Bungalows were stinky, disappointing service, mediocre food at the restaurant. The owner refused to get up from laying down and instead barked out orders to her staff! And she tried to charge more for our room that we had already paid for online. There was no free pick up as advertised, and there was only electricity during the night time. A total disappointment.

Other comments about the hotel: Lovely family run bungalow resort on what we though was the nicest beach on the island. Great snorkeling with coral reef close to the beach and very peaceful during the day - no constant music! Very mellow night life with good food, nice music, games available and even movies on DVD if you want. Staff will arrange taxis to nearby towns if more nightlife needed!While isolated, easy to get around on a scooter which you d probably want wherever you stayed [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: When we came they didn t expect us (they did not note our reservation)Our room was given away.The next day we became our beachroom.Very basic.They do not clean the room, you have to ask for fresh towels and sheets.The hotel is out-of-the-way, when you like to visit an other place you need a scooter.You can hire a scooter at the hotel.Not the European standard of basic.

How was the booking process handled?: Owner on site first didn t know that we had booked and had paid a deposit.
Other comments about the hotel: Nice bungalows and terrace, but- no pick-up (although written in the description)- no internet access (although written in the description)- only few, broken and dirty snorkeling equipment (although written in the description)- no housekeeping!!!Moreover we had a waiter who was most of the time stoned and annoying. Only the cook was very friendly, however the food was expensive for its qualitiy.Last but not least we had cold and windy weather and the beach was flooded. That s why we had to rent a car to go to the south.Taxi prices are incredible high.We will come back because we like Koh Phangan, but we will book something in the south and no more coconut beach bungalows!!!

How was the booking process handled?: Very helpful. Hotel, however, tried to claim I hadn t paid.
Other comments about the hotel: Overall, this place was just OK. It s quite far from any civilization, and takes a good 15 minute motor bike ride to get anywhere. FABULOUS if it s sunny the whole time but might be worth changing plans if it rains.There are only 2 beach front bungalows. Worth it to book them early. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: Efficient!
Other comments about the hotel: Stay away! There are so many wonderful, up-and-coming, unique places to stay on the island that this place is both a waste of time and money. The rooms are small, smelly, dank holes.

How was the booking process handled?:
Other comments about the hotel: These bungalows are exactly what I was hoping for, and more! The staff are the sweetest people you ll ever meet, and we re always very responsive to our needs. Staying here is sort of like going camping. Sure, there s no hot water (you don t really need it though because of the hot humid weather), and the electricity is off from about 7AM to 3PM every day. That s not the fault of coconut beach however, it s simply the norm for almost every place on Koh Pha-Ngan. However, it s a great motivator to get out of your bungalow and actually see the rest of the island (you know...the whole reason your on vacation in the first place). We actually extended our stay here for another 3 days.Simple accommodations, amazing scenery...highly recommended! [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: Quiet and beautiful beach, friendly staff. Nice bungalows if you don t mind the cold water and cleaning yourself everyday the bungalow. To stay here it s recommended to rent a 4 wheel motorbike. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]
