What a beautiful, mostly unspoilt island, lovely beaches, jungle and no cars! Laid back atmosphere. The food was amazing, much, much better than in Koh Tao where we are now. Lovely local people. A real gem - let’s hope it doesn’t go the way of Koh Samui and Koh Tao.

The Island is incredible - beautiful, lush and lovely to explore by scootie, cycle or walking. Our fav restaurant was The Kitchen Table run by Chioko. Best brusketta and place to hang with sweet kitties and dogs. Also Flower Power has excellent Italian food. We loved our stay in Bamboo Bungalos. Can’t wait to go back! Pure heaven.

Empty wide sand beach, tranquility.
Empty wide sand beach, tranquility. It is great for people who really want to relax, great for families.
Rent a scooter to get around, if you want to explore a little more.
Kajaks are fun to have some activity.

The weather, the scenery.
The weather, the scenery. The beaches were all stunning and the sunsets at JJ Beach resort were amazing!! Plenty of good restaurants on the island. Can personally recommend Flower Power and Cha Chai Hime for vegetarian food.
All round good vibes on the island.

Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!)
Phayam is a paradise of older Thailand. (No MacDonalds!!!!) The Thai and Burmese that live and work on the island are always friendly, helpful and HONEST. Getting around the island is easy and cheap, whether by foot, motorbike, bicycle or motorbike taxi. The food is delicious, with a variety of cuisines for those who want a change from Thai or Burmese food, many of the foodstuffs are sourced locally, including seafood caught from the sea surrounding Phayam, food and accomodation are very affordable, I have been coming to Phayam for ~ 8 years now and won’t stop.
This is one of an amazing place to stay…the bungalows renovated with such a thoughtful and loving style and hand..we loved everything…gorgeous beach, amazing food….people you need to eat there…you don’t know what you are missing out!!!!!
And then the owner Toi, the loving and ever smiling Liam and all the other staff…..( we missed meeting Sam the other owner) the most humble loving grateful honest caring people you will meet♥️♥️ we will return for sure…the best start in our vacation time ever🫶🏽
Everything about our stay was great. We stayed 4 nights, the owners and staff were lovely and friendly. Our bungalow and the hotel had places to laze and hang outside. Breakfast hit the spot. The beach was quiet and water great and the restaurants and bars along the beach were great as well. Just a great place to be based out of on the island and to go slow. Would come back!
We simply based our selection on the comments of the other guests. And can only say that most of them did not lie😉 For Thai standards a bit above the price average, but that's why we got what we wanted. very large, comfortable and above all clean bungalows. Chilled, very nice and helpful employees. And a long beautiful beach. What else do you need?! Really great!
I stayed the second time in “Rabbit”.
I felt cozy in my little bamboo bungalow, which was cleaned every 3 days.
The bungalows are located in a pretty well maintained tropical garden with a beautiful little lake with water lilies….a few minutes walk away from the sea.
The owner Lek and his stuff are always very friendly and helpful.
Also the food is delicious!
Beautiful bungalow accommodation, we stayed right on the beach, you can see the sea from your bed :) The bungalows are all newly refurbished, and have hot showers (quite rare in Koh Phayam!) The staff were all really nice, we had chilled drinks on arrival and a meet and greet by very cute dogs! If you are looking for somewhere to really relax this has it all.
Location is ... paradise. So peaceful and quiet. The beach has many cozy and laid back restaurants so easy to find other place to eat if you don't fancy that of the hotel or just need a bit of change. Staff is super friendly and sweet. Also close to the jungle. We went on many walks down the beach or into the jungle. Also clean and tidy.
There is swimming pool next to the beach. Good view and we can order foods from hotel’s restaurant. Foods and coffee are so delicious.
Room is not far from the beach and hotel is not far from the pier. Hotel provides car to pick up and drop off at the pier. Hotel can reserve speed boat for 600 thb per person (go and back).
Great location very close to the beach, lovely restaurant, amazingly helpful staff, bungalows are super clean and the bedding and towels smelled really fresh and clean! Our host was fantastic, always a smile, and he even gave us guests a little present for Valentines day! We would love to be back!
Could hear the sound of the surf from the bungalow and I love swimming in the sea. Dining on the beach was super and the restaurant food was very good. Bungalows were comfortable and clean. The resort didn’t overwhelm the nature. The cost was a real plus; JJ’s delivered great vacation value.
100% perfect location on the south end of Buffalo Bay. Only a few bungalows tucked away in the trees so never felt busy. Incredibly quiet and peaceful, surroundings immersed in nature. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and served above average food.
Friendly and helpful staff
Great location to one of the beaches
Easy to sort travel to the other main beach
Some shops and restaurants close by
Friendly cats on-site and lots of nature! Lots of butterflies, sometimes hornbills
Free transfer to the pier when leaving the property
Everything, soooo peaceful.
Before I came i read the reviews and there was one or two saying bad things?
Don't come if you're expecting 4 star hotel comforts but if you like nature and don't mind a fairly basic experience (i think you know what I mean?) You will love it x
I liked the huts that were located directly on the beach. They looked kind of cute, minimalistic but had everything we needed. Beach is amazing. Coffee in the morning at the hotel’s restaurant was amazing. I didn’t try the breakfast but it looked really good too.
Bungalows were nice, clean and full of feeling. Location is good, easy to ride bike to every compass point. Staff were very familiar and kind. They made good food and Thailands best coffee and green tea. Easily our favorite place to stay on Koh Phayam!
Rooms are really beautiful, well decorated.
Hotel is set on one of the best beaches in the island . Really quiet and good eating options around the hotel .
The manager was really kind in trying to help us finding our lost bags at the airport.
This is such a beautiful wonderful place , you have to book IT, beautiful Bungalows, lovely lovely food , so good, Made with a Lot of Love, the vibe in this place , Just relax, chill and enjoy that fantastic beach, the Dog IS so so lovely 😍
