We loved our stay here. It is one of the quietest locations on the island, and the six bungalows are well spaced out in a beautifully planned mature garden with plenty of bird life. The mangroves mean any noise from the longtail boats is muffled, which can be quite a nuisance on other parts of the island. It's still only a 20 minute walk or 5-minute scooter/tuktuk ride to Charlie Beach, and the same distance from the main town and restaurants - and there are other bars and restaurants even closer. The restaurant on-site makes one of the best green curries we had in Thailand, and the staff are lovely. There are free bicycles guests can borrow to pedal into town, or hire a scooter through reception. We stayed a week and wished we could have stayed two.

Koh Mook is a simple and relatively undeveloped island. In return for this simplicity and a relaxed way of life, service levels are a little lower. The toilets do often smell, and the mangroves are not suitable for swimming or sunbathing. If you are looking for a luxurious resort or perfect facilities, go to Sivalai Resort. But if you are looking for a laid-back and quiet place to stay, with some extremely friendly people, it's perfect. Some of the guests we met to come back every year.

Lovely helpful staff and a great situation for getting to Charlies Beach (20 minute saunter) or anywhere else you might want to get to. The Mangrove beach location is super-quiet, the rooms are spotless and comfortable, and the little plunge-pools are cute.

Paradise in a coconut grove! We come to Muk alot and can't believe we didn't know about this place! So pretty and secluded, private. Like an AI picture on a sunny day. So green , grassy lawns and facing a mini mangrove forest. Get up for sunrise - or leave your curtains open a tiny bit and watch from bed.. Kayaks are free. go read your book in the mangroves in high tide. Free bikes so go around the village and pier. Amazing staff. You can also walk to mermaids bay. Low tide is best.. i went .morning. was a 2 HR round trip walk in proper shoes with lovely secluded swim spot along the way. Amazing local Thai food here omg. We went here for dinner each night even after we left to a new place . We don't understand any bad reviews on that. Unless those ppl order Western food or something....this island isn't the place for that. Ask them to cook you local food not on menu. Geng Gatit (fish coconut curry), haw mook (stream fish curry) seafood curry powder and the best local dish on island Chu chee Fish (ate every Day). Did not wanna leave. Treat yourself for a night or 2.

Nothing! However....People giving bad reviews on food and smells etc..... this island has unreal local ingredients ...order local food only. All the Coconuts are grown herez and cashews grow everywhere. If you want luxury with proper infrastructure go to Phuket. However the smell issues are everywhere... Bangkok, Phuket, phi PHI and everywhere inc. here. Look beyond this and the Island trash problem ( which is being addressed) you will see it's paradise.

Communication with the Hotel upfront and at their place was great! The Food was very delicious even a bit pricy but the portions are big. The whole hotel was clean as well the rooms. The location is great. If you want they have a Taxi service. Taxi on the island is always 50THB per person. But you are also good to walk 15 minutes to the "city" and 15 minutes to the beach.+ Free Kajaks at the Hotel!

There is no direct way to the entrance. If you come at high tide you need to make your way to walk arround the water to get there. The bungalow was a bit humid and felt narrow inside.

We really had a luxurious bugalow! Everything was very organization and clean. Definitely got the best sleep in my entire Thailand trip in this bungalow. The little pool was a nice additional touch and it was so refreshing after the hot day. Atmosphere in the Tamarind Resort is being like in a small village. The place is out of the noise from the streets but still reasonable walk distance to the center and e.g., Charlie’s beach. It was extreme calm in there and the staff were so friendly. We had to leave a bit earlier before the breakfast started and they backed us some fruits, cookies and water to go. This was so nice! If you are looking for your own peace and do not mind that the property in not right in the center this is your place!

The only downside was how the water stayed on the shower area floor. This is such a minor detail so it really doesn’t even matter!

A nice little property in a quiet location although the area is very scruffy and, like so many other places around, would welcome a good clean up. Breakfasts are good, the views (especially when the tide is in) are nice and the staff helpful and welcoming

We did not expect such a small room with not any closet or drawer space at all. Wouldn't it be good if they spent some of their money they make from the tourists on cleaning up the area which is unfortunately, like the rest of Koh Mook, a tip

Lovely bungalows on a budget. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The room had everything you need, great size fridge, support comfortable bed and pillows, nice view to the sea. Food id from restaurant was great, great range of options for breakfast. Other food options near by, beach is within walking distance. Bikes and scooters available too.

I wouldn't buy trips or get tickets from there I would shop around. 500bht commission on a ferry ticket was too far fetched, 200 is more appropriate. Would have got it cheaper had I booked online or in town.

The rooms are spacious and the mini pool is really comforting. We also found the staff to be really helpful, and they even vegan-ized the breakfast for us which was quite delicious. You can easily catch the sunrise from the resort, and wouldn't hear any traffic noises or loud music as it's located far from the main parts of the island.

The only thing that wasn't really good was the approach to the resort. You've to walk on a narrow wooden plank bridge, and then on some sand and then again on plank bridge before you even reach the reception. You've to do this each time you enter or leave. If you've to take the cycles out then that's even more difficult.

The location is tranquil and easily connected to the beach and nearby town through taxis for 100baht. The hotel is family run and everyone is very friendly. The food is great in the restaurant. The room was comfortable and clean with fantastic views. I would recommend taking the emerald cave tour that the hotel provide which includes a full tour of the island including emerald cave on your own private long tail boat for only 1000 baht.

Nothing

I liked the position 10 min walking from the beautiful Charlie beach. I liked the bungalow and its amenities and the lovely palm garden where the resort is. There is no access to the sea and the beach since it's a mangrove beach but its not a problem since the location is walking distance to Charlie beach.

The staff doesn't speak much English and the communication was somehow difficult, especially with the male staff. The breakfast was included but it wasn't buffet but a la carte and it was too simple and small portions, I appreciate the fresh fruits though. I would appreciate a water dispenser with free water since the plastic water bottle is producing a lot of waste for the island and they sell expensive water inside the resort. I would appreciate free refill for the guests.
