Most likely this is how Thailand used to be before the mass tourism! Remote island with stunning empty beaches, only a few scattered huts and even a tiny bit of wildlife. We were in love with this place from the very first minute and enjoyed every single one from there on. We like the concept of different unique cottages and were very happy with the one we got. The common areas have so much detail and are a pure joy for the eye. Very friendly and helpful personnel, tasty and rich breakfast, nice food/drinks menu in general and relaxing massages. We found the prices very reasonable for a self independent high-level resort on a remote island (in average a main dish incl. rice for 250-300BHT, I mean we are talking about 7-8€). We were also very satisfied with the quality that we got. It was no problem to share the longtail boat and its costs with other guests. Personally we’d rather pay a bit more to enjoy the remoteness and solitude than to participate from Economies of scale, save 10€ and sit in an overcrowded boat to spend time in an overcrowded place. Thank you again for everything, we will definitely return!

Stop nine in our three week itinerary in this small part of Thailand. They have all been good but Baba has been by far the most visually stunning and we have loved it here. Our well built traditional style lodge, Baan Chang, looked straight onto the delectable Long Beach. Rarely more than half a dozen people visible on its whole length. Perfect for the sunsets, great for swimming. Comfortable, secluded balcony on the first-floor living area. Shaded open sitting area below. Attractively furnished with a big comfy bed and a perfectly fitting net. Semi open construction meant no need for a/c. And what a view! From the rear, turn right and it’s less than 10 minutes to the Club-House / restaurant, or the same distance along the beach. Turn left and in less than five minutes you’re at the beach bar / snack restaurant in the sheltered shallow waters of the bay. Perfect for children. Exceptionally good pre-arrival communication with the talented and multilingual Theresa and her welcoming islander colleagues. Everything very well organised, cared for and sustainable. Be aware that this is more a luxury Robinson Crusoe experience than a multi star hotel, albeit one with plenty of extras available (eg free kayak and snorkel loan, tours, massage), but this is exactly what we were hoping for. We were delighted with Baba Eco Lodge!

It was all good.

This is a unique and very special place. Yes, it is not the easiest place to get to, but the best places never are, and BABA can organise everything. We had stayed in Phuket the night before. BABA sent a driver to pick us up and take us to the pier. Once we got to the pier, the Long Tail they organised was waiting for the 75 minutes ride between the islands and mangroves. As we approached the resort, BABA staff could be seen driving across the beach, waving, to meet up. BABA is spread out across a long stretch of perfect (and empty) beach. Accommodation is along the stretch, with individual buildings on stilts. Each building is different, but all have balconies, with loads of room and situated in the lush jungle. You can hardly see your neighbours through the trees. A sand path runs through the jungle with paths to each accommodation leading off. At one end of the path is their beach bar and Yoga, at the other end is their reception, restaurant and massage. It is a 10-15 minute walk between them (this place really is spaced out). All food is fresh, the menus change every day, and tastes fantastic. So should you come…. It is paradise, unspoiled like Thailand used to be. Miles of empty perfect beach, wonderful water, unbelievable food. Each lodge is large and comfortable It is also in the jungle, and monkeys will wake you up (which is fab), but if you want a City Hilton, this is not your place. If you would like wonderful paradise and don’t mind sleeping under the provided mosquito nets, this is your perfect(actually not many mosquitoes or bugs but it is jungle). We left a little of our heart there when we left, so unique, we miss it.

For us, it was ideal. The location, property and staff are wonderful, so just can’t think of anything.

We loved everything about Baba Ecolodge! And can't wait to return! Perfect location, food was excellent, plenty to do if you like hiking and snorkeling and kayaking. I loved how quiet and low key it was. I especially loved listening to the ocean as I fell asleep at night.

Super close to nature, the staff was welcoming, food delicious, pet company top notch. Cannot recommend this place enough for those that was to decompress and slow down. Very impressed with the eco friendliness, we didn't see any single use plastic. LOVE!

Nothing! The froggy companies were intimidating at first but we became friends.

The islands natural splendour, the beautiful wooden houses and peaceful atmosphere. Probably one of the last remaining islands in Thailand that remains unspoilt.

Make sure to bring enough sunscreen.

It was very relaxing.

Few lunch options. Having to book spa treatments or jeep tours well in advance as not much availability. Not nearly enough sun beds on the beach.

Location was spectacular - so remote and perfect. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was really good.

Beautiful location and resort on an (almost) empty island. We loved every minute of our stay and would return in a blink. The appartments (huts) were super cool and unique, with a lot of small details. When we mentioned that the bed was a little to hard for our likeing, we immediatly got a topper. Also the beach was a dream

Everything was perfect

Special place, fresh delicious food everyday out of the touristic routes, incredibly well kept, immersed in nature.
