    The stay was awesome and unforgettable. We loved every second. Truly a magical place like no other. We recommend this hotel to everyone going to Thailand, if they are looking for the most romantic place there is.

    This small resort is the perfect couples getaway. It is luxurious, comfortable, romantic and most of all private. I recommend it to any couple who simply want to be toghether on a private beach in thailand away from everyone while being spoiled silly.

    I do not recommend it for people who like going out, it takes a while to climb up and down into the beach. It is not really a 'swimming' beach. Absolutely beautiful though.

    This resort just reinvented luxury hospitality. They choose to only have 3 rooms to guarantee this privacy feeling you want in a luxury resort. The service and food are truly tailor made and done with the heart with an amazing intelligence by the entire staff. It is not formatted as nearly all luxury resort nowadays. You have a concierge who truly knows you and assit you before, during and after your stay. The huge included breakfast is served until 4h30pm ! Finally a hotel who understands that we are on vacation. Make sure to stay enough days as the island their huge choice of exclusive experiences are all you have been hoping to do in a vacation guided only by chosen locals for their knowledge and unique history. It is just beyond like I said. I do not even mention the secluded and private paradisiac beaches or the resort. I will come back and make sure to stay at least 17 days. By the way the WiFi was fast at 180 mb/s and as I recall 40 mb/s in the villas.

    Location, And room was amazing

    The Dressing room could have done with more lighting! Nothing really! However an Infinity pool would have been cool

    Dear Lynsey, Thank you very for choosing stay with us and for your highlight on our service. We are delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay with us. Our dressing room has a switch with different lightings effects (2 modes) near the door. We will highlight its exact location to our future guests. The exceptional Beachfront Estate you stayed in has two private beaches but our pool villa has an infinity large pool if you wish for next time. We will study your proposal of adding a pool to the Beach Villa. We look forward to having you back with us very soon. Warm regards, SOWK Resort

    Most beautiful place where I have ever stayed. You feel like in the middle of a movie. Very friendly staff that want to go the extra mile. The villa was well maintained and clean.

    Mattrass was extremely hard and the main reason for the lower score, I was very surprised to read that nobody mentioned this earlier in the other reviews. For me personally, this is a deal breaker when you are offering a place to sleep. Breakfast was simple and did not testify of much inspiration. Evening dinner cooked at the spot is pricey for what you get.

    it was one of the most romantic places that i have ever been at! the hedonist was so beautiful, and everyone of the staff was so welcoming and helpful! we felt like we were part of the family! and a big thank you to the two married couple that were our cooks, you are awesome!

    the location is beautiful but we felt like that the resort was very isolated from everything and when you want to leave the property you have to hike up to get out! it was ok for us but just be aware of that when you book a stay because it is not an ordinary hotel like you used to!

    Words can not describe my experience in this amazing place! I liked everything ! The treatment, the staff, the views are exceptional, the Villa is just amazing, so beautiful. I’ve done two experiences (excursions) and they were really original and very nice to do. It’s like you are one with nature when staying there. And everybody is so sweet. They make many cute details. I will definitely come back again!

    I can not think of one thing. There were two power outages, but it’s normal for the island. They immediately came to fix it.

    We had a wonderful two night stay at this peaceful place. Definately a great hiding spot if you’re coming from a busy city. Villas had good amenities and service was friendly and helpful at all times - very easy to communicate through WhatsApp group. Very idyllic settings all round and you can spend hours in the villa or sunbathing by the beach.

    We had a wonderful time alone in this little paradise. Nyen and her husband from Burma, who cooked for us wonderfully, are people with a big heart. They spoiled us! Saw also took great care of us and was always available for us. The place is unique - pure nature. We enjoyed it very much and let our souls dangle. The time and space allowed us to find peace. The social and sustainable background of Guillaume and his team is exemplary and made us book "Somewhere only we know". See you next time. Thank you very much for the happy time. Isabelle & Brigitte

    We were simply overwhelmed by the unique architecture and the inspiring landscape. The whole place is a work of art. The views are spectacular. The beach is one of the most beautiful ones we have ever seen. The private natural pool was a dream. On every turn you see something new that amazes you. The staff is very helpful and attentive. Breakfast was made specially for us. You will have the vacation of your dreams.

    The long way up to the road in the heat may be a problem for some people. But the staff is very kind to carry your luggage on checkin and checkout!

    Thisi is fantastic place, you live here inside real jungle in beautiful, big and unique villas with nice nature design. You just have to little hike from the road to the villa, around 5 minutes, it’s easy and beautiful way through the jungle, and hotel stuff help helps to carry luggage. Territory is nice, with a beautiful view point, the restaurant is located near the beach with delicious food, and friendly stuff. Also hotel has a private beach, with beautiful big stones and nice view to the sunset. We love this place with my wife and will come back again.

    This is the most sustainable, fair trade hotel I have ever seen. They should talk more about it. The resort and its owner invented their own eco-technologies such as a grey water system with which the water never infiltrates and pollutes the ground or natural air conditioning systems. Nothing is bought from a big company (except the toilet paper they say) all is as local, as organic as it can be from the soaps, food or wines. The staff is Burmese most them coming from the war times in Myanmar. The hotels finances green projects for the local businesses and buys coffee from a school for disabled kids on the main land and yes it is exceptionally good. These are only two examples but ask the staff about anything you see you will be shocked they will tell you all the reasoning behind each item of this amazing resort. The hotel help people in Myanmar by sending 50USD for each booking and alternatively for 50USD booking several bnbs in Ukraine without any stay. You will feel good to be there knowing you are not polluting anything and that your money will be used to finance green or social projects. I mean just for that I love this place. I had the best time with the entire team they are lovely, passionate and kind people with amazing personal history from the manager to the cleaning lady.
