Amalena was the consummate hostess! She greeted us upon arrival with special blue ice tea and local snacks, made excellent recommendations for local activities and helped us manage transportation when our disparate group wanted to reconnect at a restaurant on the other side of the island, even accompanied my daughter and son-in-law to make sure they reached the right place. She was so cheerful, attentive and helpful. We can't wait to go back!

My only complaint is with the Wi-Fi strength. We were able to connect but I was unable to successfully post any Facebook pictures and videos while we were there. Other than that, everything was fabulous!

As one reviewer on Trip Advisor said, "Amaleena herself is the star of the show." And it's true ... from the start, she made me feel taken care of. And that goes a long way! And the bungalow itself was nicer than I anticipated. It had AC, minimalist decor, and a huge, full wall of windows. Although it's not on the beach, it's in a central location ... walkable to SO much. They even sell well-priced tickets to other islands that include all of the transfers including hotel pickup. Thank you for your hospitality, Amaleena & crew!!

Location, but they can't help that lol ... I always think a pool/sauna/steam room is nice, but for the price point, this was a great value

Amaleena rescued us after we left our previous accommodation due to lack of air conditioning! We were warmly greeted with some lovely juice and some suggestions of places to visit. Amaleena is absolutely lovely and really makes you feel welcome. Bungalows are very clean and comfortable and set in a beautiful garden. Within walking distance of some good restaurants and a beautiful beach. Great value for money, and Amaleena owns a gorgeous cafe where you can have breakfast (additional cost) - great coffee and roti.

Everything was great!

We had the most wonderful stay at Bannsuan Amaleena. The accommodation was very comfortable, spacious and clean, the breakfast and coffee were delicious and our host, Amaleena, was like a ray of sunshine. The location was great: peaceful, but with local amenities nearby and only 5 minutes walk to the beach. We were able to rent scooters from Amaleena and I believe that there were also bicycles available. We were really blown away by our experience on the island, including this accommodation; I'm sure we'll be returning to stay again!

We loved our stay on Koh Yao Noi! The most beautiful island, we wish we had more time here. Amalena was the sweetest host and treats you like family rather than customers. Please try the mango sticky rice for breakfast because honestly I can’t stop thinking about how good it was! Amalena offers to organise anything you need, we did an island hopping trip and omg it was so good! We had a private boat which wasn’t even that exciting expensive so we could just spend our own time at each place, would highly recommend. Extra is a good place for food, drinks and live music which is 2 minutes down the hill. The sunset bar which is up the hill is also amazing to watch the sunset and have a cocktail. We also hired a moped but unfortunately my partner had an accident straight away on it and we spent a whole day in the hospital/hospitals as we had to go to the mainland. Please please, if you haven’t driven a moped before, get someone to show you how to use it safely, don’t try and guess yourself :(

The owners were very friendly and welcoming, would offer us fresh mangos and bananas from their garden. Everything was very clean and the room very comfortable with everything you needed. We were able to rent a scooter very easily from the owners. The location of the bungalow was excellent and due to it being away from the road this made it extremely quiet.

We wish we could have stayed longer, but unfortunately we had already made other plans.

The accomodation is very well located in a calm and relaxing environment. At Amaleena‘s café you can enjoy great food and coffee, even with soy milk! You can rent bikes and motorcycles for fair prices to get to the beach or anywhere else. Excellent lunch and dinner options are also in walking distance. Amaleena and her husband Ron are very warm and super-friendly and amazing hosts - we would love to come back some time! Khop Khun Kaa for everything!

Amaleena is the perfect hostess. She arranged for transportation from the pier to the hotel, greeted us with a welcome drink and a delicious rice dish, rented us a scooter, made all the arrangements for our departure. Our stay at Koh Yao Noi was very relaxing. Our room was spotless, great deck for morning coffee, bed and pillows were great! Breakfast had a nice selection and many tourists from outside the hotel came to eat there. I would stay there again!

The location is very near several restaurants and beachside bars, cafes. Bicycle and scooter rental is reasonable. Bungalow unit was clean, comfortable with good hot water, spacious patio. Plenty of breakfast options. The woman who was our host was very gracious and was helpful booking ferry tickets and transport to the pier.

The TV didn’t work. We didn’t miss it, so didn’t make an effort to have it working.

- Amaleena and her husband are amazing and super friendly people. The also helped us to organize tours and to adjust bicycles you can rent there, offered nice Thai desserts and cold water every morning - The location is close to both beach and a bunch of really good restaurants, bars and a couple of massage booths; we managed to check more than a half of the island by bicycle from there - The bungalows are equipped with everything one could need; they are clean and relatively new; if you need the room to be cleaned every day, you have to tell it to Amaleena

Everything is perfect! Would definitely come back!
