Mamajim is a great woman with a big heart who has built her resort through hard work. It has the best location in the bay for snorkeling. The mornings before the tourist boats arrive and the afternoons after they leave are great. Swimming with sea turtles and the colourful marine life was a joy.

The fan was rusty and noisy and the inside part of the bungalow coul be renovated a bit

Amazing position very close to the sea. The bungalows are very basic but you have all you need to enjoy your staying

The staff carried my suitcase down to my bungalow when I arrived, and carried it back up the steps when I left. Very kind. The bed was comfortable. Good food. Excellent snorkeling and views.

Bungalows were a bit old and run down.

Fantastic location, lovely cafe with high sea views.

We turned up at the property to be told it was fully booked, even though the booking had been confirmed and the money had been taken from our account. The lady at reception wanted us to pay some more money to be taken to another hotel on the island. This was disappointing as we’d specifically picked the property due to the location. The staff didn’t seem too shocked/surprised that they had overbooked booked and were not apologetic. After some discussion they managed to find us a bungalow to stay in. The bungalow itself is very basic. It only had one plug socket in the whole room quite high up on the wall which made it difficult to charge anything. It was fairly clean but you can tell everything is very old and run down. However, the view from the bungalow is amazing! We enjoyed our stay, however the initial check in was very stressful and we were left to believe the place is very disorganised.

The location is really lovely. Great location if you want to visit Shark Bay, Freedom Beach and John Suwan viewpoint.

Very small Bungalow, could be a bit cleaner.

Beautiful located, directly at the beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. You can reach the village nearby in 2 minutes with the scooter.

Disappointing Experience at OK2 Mamajim Bungalows I had a very disappointing experience at OK2 Mamajim Bungalows. The only positive aspect of our stay was the location, but that was where it ended. The room was downright filthy: moldy shower walls, a ceiling held up with tape, huge dust bunnies under the beds, cockroaches in the shower, and a dirty toilet. The linens were stained and the towels were covered in spots. The textiles were clearly outdated and in urgent need of replacement. Outside, the garden was poorly maintained, with a lot of litter, and it resembled more of a storage area for old toilets and demolition debris than a well-kept environment. Additionally, I had issues with the scooter I rented there. A simple screw was missing from the phone holder’s mount. Instead of resolving this issue in a normal manner, I was met with an aggressive attitude from an older lady and the staff, and I was unjustly charged 500 THB. The lady wanted everything to be brand new. I would suggest starting with the accommodation. That should be your top priority. In short, despite the beautiful location, I cannot recommend this place at all. The unprofessional behavior of the staff, the poor hygiene, and the outdated facilities significantly spoiled my stay.

Filthy bathroom, fan was caked with dust, bed sheets and towels were dirty and old there was no toilet paper.

Location was spectacular beautiful bay

Stayed in March 2024

Toilet had sometimes very low water pressure- from the tap came just a little bit of water.

Beautiful, a few steps away from the beach and snorkeling! Also very cute and cozy cottages.

The worst accommodation I‘ve encountered in a month in the south of Thailand, it‘s truly horrible - the staff was the worst I‘ve ever encountered, every time I went to the room they screamed after me asking to pay to enter even after 4 Nights staying there they apparently didn’t remember my face. The bungalow itself is disgusting, as is the whole property there is trash everywhere it‘s very poorly cleaned everything is dirty and old - there are huge gaps between the planks of the floor of the bungalows where cockroaches & spiders crawl through but nothing could‘ve prepared me for the rat that we encountered in the bathroom. That is so unhygienic and a serious health risk - save yourself the trouble and do not stay here under any circumstances no matter how cheap it is it’s unbearable.

We stayed here because of the amazing views across Shark Bay, however in hindsight we would have definitively stayed somewhere else and travelled to Shark Bay when we wanted to enjoy the snorkelling. The room we stayed in was extremely dirty and we dont think it had been cleaned for a very long time. The bed had been changed however layers of dirt and dust could be seen around the bed that had been there forever. The bathroom was also very dirty and the ingrained grime on the floor tiles could be rubbed off by hand when wet. There was dirt and what looked like blood on some of the walls too. The fan that was provided was also very very dirty and rusty. We cleaned this before using it during our stay. Disgusting. We had no hot water while we were there and no water at all on the second morning. This was the last straw and although we had originally booked for 5 nights, we moved out after 2, and found alternative accommodation and we could not stay there any longer. Paying for double accommodation was a small price to pay! Even when we went back on day 5 to check out, the room had not been cleaned, towels had not been changed and the bin had not even been emptied. The ironic thing is the staff all sit around the reception during the day (usually 4 or 5 or them together), not doing much other than keeping their eyes open to charge anyone who wants to gain access to the bay via the hotel steps, 50 baht each. If only they were as keen to stay on top of the room cleaning/room renovation for the guests who have actually paid to stay there. It's such a shame the accommodation doesn't get anywhere near doing the location justice. This is by far the worst place we have stayed whilst travelling around Thailand for the last 2 months.

The view is amazing but no need to stay there to see it!

The bed could use a little upgrade but for the money you pay its good enough.

Beautiful location, you will hear the sea and wind when you go to bed and wake up. Every morning we were awoken by the sun which let to an early night in. It was perfect, very relaxed and back to nature. Mosquito net for the bed is provided and there is a little fridge in the room that keeps your beers cold. Not every hotel had this.

Mamajim bungalows were amazing! The location beautiful and the staff very friendly and welcoming.

I've stayed in a few accommodations in Thailand and I'm not picky either. But this accommodation is really very run down. There is no real door with a lock, it is locked from the inside with a sliding lock. The walls have holes or are built in such a way that there are generous gaps where you can look outside. That's all acceptable... But the bathroom: terrible! The floor there is rough, grainy concrete that you definitely can't get clean. A hole was simply smash into the concrete as a drain. The toilet smelled strongly of urine. There was a large brown stain on the floor next to the toilet, which you probably wouldn't be able to clean properly due to the structure of the floor. It was all very unhygienic. The bed had stains and so did the towels.

The view is awesome. The staff is friendly.

We had an incredible stay! Loved it so much that we extended for three more nights. Shark Bay is the island's gem, and the service, especially from the owner, was excellent and incredibly helpful. Highly recommend! We will come back! 🐢❤️
