This hostel is by far the best one I ever stayed in. Almost everyone staying here had to extend their stay at least once, because it is just so comfortable in here. If you like hippie vibes and not so crowded beaches, Koh Phayam is really it for u. This hostel is truly a hidden gem :)) lots of love

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!
With a peaceful beachfront location on Ko Phayam, Sabai Sabai offers private bungalows and free WiFi access.

We enjoyed the way the place is set up lots of little spots to hang out in the shade facing a quiet beach front. James the owner was super helpful and we loved our stay there. Very relaxing laid back place with serene vibes.

We stayed here for a 4 night getaway. This is one of the best places we have stayed in Thailand. The room and bathroom were very clean. Nice deck to lounge on. Coffee and refrigerator in the room and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast buffet had a lot of selection with the thai item’s changing everyday. We ate dinner in the restaurant every night and the food was the best we have eaten in Thailand. Most of all the staff were amazing. We had a slight mishap on a motorbike and sustained a few cuts. When we returned to the resort the staff cleaned our wounds and bandaged us up. They were always sooooo helpful and wonderful. Definitely our stay there was a great experience and we will return.

Loved our hut, loved the pool. Great location on beach - restaurants in walking distance - great food at Gypsy Bar right next door. Bed harder than other beds in Thailand. Quiet resort. Could use a kettle in room.

Room was okay. Very simple but nice bedding and AC. Thought the units were on the beach but actually up a path away from the beach.

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.
The location is perfect. The beach and area around the hotel are keept clean. The rooms are very comfortable and I especially like the softer mattress compared to other hotels in thailand.
The staff is extremely nice and will help you get anything you need.
The pool is clean and nice view over the ocean.
Please remember - this is an upcoming tourist area, so not all staff speak English - but then again that's a good excuse to learn a bit of thai language.

Well designed bungalows. Good swimming pool. Nice dining area. An excellent place to see hornbills as they come in for their banana morning and evening.
The owners and staff were helpful and friendly. If you come to relax it is ideal. If you come to explore you need a motorcycle.
Breakfast was limited but delicious.
Relaxed, clean and tidy environment. Bungallows clean, everything working as it should. Cleaning every day
Pictures correspond to reality
Pool clean and working. Environment is maintened properly. Very quiet place, no any noise. Hotel based on the beach, which, in my opinion, is the best on Koh Phayam
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!
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
Our bungalow was right near the water so we fell asleep every night listening to the waves! So very relaxing.
The beaches on the other side of the island are better, but PP Land Eco Resort is conveniently located close to the main pier and the many restaurants close by.
The staff is very friendly and helpfull. The last bungalows (4-5-6) are close to the nature and far away from the motorbike noise.
The food is very good. Late afternoon you can enjoy the feeding of hornbills. It is recommended to have an own motorbike.
Owners were really friendly, Great location, amazing food and atmosphere.
The bar is very cool.
They provide drink water for the guests, what’s really helpful and ecological.
The bungalows are very silent and cozy.
Near beach is good only on morning, Hotel look like hotel because on Koh Phayam very little resort or bungalow service like hotel, Staff helpful when you asking,fine and peaceful places,restaurant menu lot of kind.
the bungalows are very cute, with a nice garden just near a lake, there is nice spot to sit and eat your breakfast or diner, staff is really kind, not too hot by night in January, near a beautiful beach
This is a lovely little resort on a beautiful beach. The view bungalows was spacious with a nice deck. This is not a party area so evenings were quiet.
