Phannerai House is located down a small private lane and away from the noise of the street. At night it is beautifully lit and is attractive in the daytime, especially by the pool that is surrounded by trees, there are a lot of birds and butterflies which makes it feel more remote and relaxing than the location would suggest. Golf, who is the owner is very lovely. She met us on arrival and got us a mango juice. The rooms are compact, but well appointed, hanging rails, mirror, fridge etc that make it easy to unpack and relax.

The bed is on a raised platform and the mattress is quite firm - a bit too much so for me!

Really recommend this property and especially Golf the host. She was so kind and wonderful I recommend just to get a chance to meet her and experience the warmth of Thai hospitality. The room itself was perfect and everything needed for a proper stay was provided. I stayed in three properties total on koh samui and of the three this was the best. An example of something this place had that others lacked were a mosquito net on the windows and the door,, like a screen door. Golf also starts the stay with a mango smoothie as a welcome drink and offers two waters daily at your door. Everything was really perfect. Don’t hesitate~~

My stay at Phannarai House was just perfect! I loved everything about it! The room is spotless, spacious, nicely decorated, with a comfortable bed and everything you need to feel at home. Although the accommodation is super central and just a minute away from all the restaurants and cafes, it is located in a little side road so that it’s quiet and peaceful. On top of everything Golf is an incredibly lovely and kind host and helps you with everything you need!! Also she welcomed me with the most delicious mango smoothie and there were every morning two new bottles of water waiting for me! I‘m really grateful and highly recommend staying at Phannarai House!

Golf (the owner) was fantastic, gave reccomendations for what to do and where to hire bikes. The room is spacious with a fridge and roof terrace! Good value for money - would stay again if in Lamai.

Tiny negatives: the bed is a bit hard for us - similar to other beds in Thailand though. Few hangers to hang clothes but no wardrobe. Brill powerful shower but water goes everywhere! Saying this -tiny things and would stay again.

Fantastic stay in Lamai! Golf the owner was so welcoming and kind she couldn’t do enough for us. She kindly gave us coconuts to drink on arrival and 2 bottles of water everyday of our stay. The room was very clean and comfortable with a big fridge and great AC. The location is perfect, you our down a chilled private road but just a 2 minute walk to the long sandy beach, 2 minutes to the night markets (our fave night markets in Thailand they were super chilled and really nice food), 5 minutes to the main strip of Lamai loads of bars and restaurants and shops!!

This was our favourite stay of our trip so far. The host was super friendly and gave us a very warm welcome. The location is great in Lamai, close walk to beach, shops and restaurants. The pool area is quiet and clean. We only wish we could’ve stayed longer! We will definitely book here again.

Everything was perfect however there were some small ants in the bathroom.

Our stay was fantastic! We were able to check in early (in the morning), and we were greeted by golf with a welcome smoothie. The bungalow is very nice. The location is perfect. Within walking distance: cafes, street food, restaurants, 7/11, the beach, and the night market. The pool is also great for cooling off and relaxing. They also provide two bottles of water every morning. Definitely recommended if you want to have a great time in Lamai.

Location was a short walk to the beach. The owner was friendly and helpful. The shower was a bit basic but there was always hot water. We didn’t use the swimming pool so can’t comment on that. There’s lots to do on the beach, we had dinner in one of the many restaurants, good value jet skiing. We recommend booking a tour to see the pink dolphins, the owner helped us organise this but it’s worth doing it in advance as they are popular.

Shower was basic but we still had hot water.

Perfect location in the heart of Lamai centre but tucked down a quiet driveway. Short walk to beach and night markets. Lovely restaurants nearby. The room is your own small bungalow with roof terrace, basic rooms but super clean with everything you need. 2 bottles of water placed outside your room every morning was a lovely touch. The host Golf is super friendly and helpful. I originally booked for 3 nights but extended my stay for another 2. Great value for money!

Nothing.

Close to everything but still away from the hustle and bustle. We lived 2 minutes from a fresh and local market with very affordable prizes and great food. Loved the host, especially when a gecko came into my room and wouldn’t leave. The host was ready to assist me with that even though it was late. I felt safe. If we ever return we will definitely give her a visit 😁
