One of the best and most beautiful hotels I have stayed in so far. Great service, great food and the rooms are fantastic. Even the bathroom, which often leaves something to be desired, was great. Shower like you do at home. Definitely not the last time there. Clear recommendation

I stayed at Hotel Explorar in Koh Phangan, and it was an amazing experience! The location is perfect, nestled between pristine beaches and lush jungle. The rooms are modern, spacious, and offer breathtaking views of the ocean. The staff is welcoming and always ready to make the stay even more pleasant. What I particularly liked is that it is an adults-only hotel, so the atmosphere is calm and serene, ideal for relaxing in peace. The food is also excellent, with fresh and flavorful dishes that highlight local flavors. A true haven of peace to disconnect and enjoy the beauty of the island. I highly recommend this hotel for an unforgettable stay in Koh Phangan!

**Perfect Stay at Hotel Explorer!**My stay at Hotel Explorer on Koh Phangan was simply fantastic! The location of the hotel is ideal—peaceful, yet within walking distance to the famous monthly Full Moon Party. It's perfect if you want to experience the party scene without sacrificing relaxation and comfort.A special shout-out to the entire team, but especially to Zaw Zaw and Saint. Both made my stay incredibly enjoyable. Zaw Zaw was always friendly, helpful, and ensured everything ran smoothly. Saint was equally amazing, always ready with a helpful tip or a smile. Their exceptional hospitality made my stay truly unforgettable.The rooms are clean, modern, and very cozy, and the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend Hotel Explorer to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable vacation on Koh Phangan, with the added bonus of being close to the Full Moon Party.I’ll definitely be back!5/5 ⭐️

The hotel is charming in its facilities, the staff is very kind and helpful. But the pool on cloudy days with winds is less relevant, very cold. And the rooms are not amazing, the air conditioner is on the head, the shower does not drain properly and the smell of dampness in the whole room

Explorar koh phangan has the best location and vibe! We came here to attend the full moon party, which was only 10 min by walking. The adults-only-hotel is bedecked beautifully with greenery and has a sea facing infinity pool with access to the beach. You can spend hours here soaking in the pool and sunbathing. The inhouse restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating with beautiful views of the sea. Rooms are spacious and are stocked with all amenities (including a hangover remedy pack!!). Breakfast spread was delicious. Overall a great experience!
