Really perfect location, beautiful beach.They don't have a restaurant or bar so you have to go to nearby restaurants on the beach.Terrible beds and hard hard pillows.When I came to the reception at ten to 20 in the evening they were closed and the employees could not speak English nor Thai.A place full of mosquitoes, all of Copenhagen but there in an unusual way.

Very nice, well-kept hotel in a quiet location with a great pool and beach. The beds are super comfortable and if you want they can be cleaned every day. The staff are always friendly and accommodating. A restaurant would have been nice, but there are plenty of places to find something to eat on the beach. I would book it again!

Green Papaya has it all: excellent location on a beautiful, quiet beach with dining options; Super friendly staff and a very very nice room and pool superior to anything we have seen. It really is the best hotel we have visited during our entire stay in Thailand.

We were lucky enough to book the front room closest to the beach, and with the curtains pulled, it was a fantastic view. the room was large, very, very clean, and a lovely soft bed, which we really appreciated as most beds in thailand are very hard. large bathroom with plenty of storage, an outdoor shower, and a large bath. the room also had a couch, but most of the day was spent on the large deck of a few feet away lounging around the pool. they supplied you with plenty of free water every day. The pool was a great temperature and very clean, large and with a great view of the beach. the young couple running the place were very lovely, helpful and friendly. breakfast was a smorgesboard served in their beachside restaurant, which was only used for breakfast. their fruit juice was delicious and plenty foof to choose from. you could buy beer and drinks from reception out of the cold fridge, which was handy every afternoon to sit and have cold beers on the deck before strolling down the beach for dinner. the resort is placed at one end of the beach, the nice end, sheltered, quiet, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. we would recommend and definitely stay again. thank you

Honestly a great hotel if you want peace and quietTop notch serviceReally all the Thai people who work there are at the topThe chalets are large, spacious, air-conditioned with outdoor shower and indoor bathtub. Outside you will have a swimming pool with small paths with iguana, butterflies and other small animals.The beach, I'm not even talking about it, is frozen, is large and honestly not crowded with peopleThe restaurants along the beach are very good and inexpensiveI really recommend top of the topAnd I don't do any advertising for them, that's my feeling

Superb hotel with a wonderful swimming pool and opposite one of the best beaches in Koh Phangan. Very beautiful heavenly setting. Spacious and very pretty room. Very welcoming and available staff. I will come back without hesitation. I just would have liked a change of towels at least once every 2 days.

We felt very comfortable in the department from the first minute. Would have liked to stay longer. The garden is an oasis of well-being, a small green jungle. The water vessels with the water lilies are a dream. There are blooming flowers and orchids everywhere. The complex and the pool area are very nicely designed. The breakfast service worked excellently. All the staff were very polite and loving and open to all questions and very helpful. The room was very clean and you have everything you need.

This was our second visit to this hotel, the first time 9 years ago and now again in July 2024. The first time we were two families with children, this time we were just two adults. Now we lived on the first floor of the boathouse (bst). The room was large and clean. The bed good and the breakfast good. We like the beach very much. The place can definitely be recommended. It is well maintained although it is starting to look a bit worn.

A stunning hotel on the quiet Salad beach with bungalows set in a lush garden. There are lots of loungers for relaxing on, some around the pool, others overlooking the beach. There are lots of restaurants to choose from on the beach front and the best thing is that you can snorkel off the beach itself! There is a lovely reef that can be walked out to at low tide with lots of fish and coral. Highly recommend a few days here :-).

We had a super nice deluxe bungalow - bedroom with mosquito net and bathroom with outside shower.The facility was very well maintained, breakfast was served on the terrace (you choose what you want at reception the evening before).The portions could be larger, but it was tasty. There is no bar/restaurant - but there is a refrigerator at the receptionwhere drinks are available for sale. There are also a few restaurants, a small supermarket and also on the beach in the immediate vicinitysome massage options. Pool was clean - overall a very positive experience. I would book the accommodation again and can recommend it with a clear conscience.

Very nice beach resort run with love. The facility was very well maintained and the staff were nice. Breakfast was brought to the room as renovations are currently taking place.There is a shop just across the street that is recommended, the shop on the beach is twice as expensive. We had the Boat Terrace Suite which is very nice and large. The stay was very relaxing.

This is our second time there and we love it! The facility is fantastically beautiful, a bit away from the hustle and bustle, exactly what we wanted. You can easily rent a scooter outside the hotel and explore the island.The employees are all really warm and accommodating, especially Nani - she was open to any of our concerns.See you soon 🌞🫶🏻

Great hotel! The location is exceptionally good on Haad Salad Beach. There are several restaurants and massage parlors on the beach within easy walking distance. There are shops, scooter rentals and laundry at the top of the street.The employees at the reception are super nice and helpful. Breakfast is served on the terrace at the desired time in the morning, there are several options to choose from, tastes good.All the employees are friendly, the cleanliness is really great everywhere. If necessary, the room is cleaned daily.Our bungalow (Deluxe Cottage) is located in the 2nd row from the beach, right next to the pool. Terrace is large and has enough seating. The room itself is also very spacious and the facilities are great. There is a TV, kettle, coffee/tea and an electric mosquito racket. There are sockets with USB charging ports next to the bed. The bathroom and dressing room is huge, but has a separate outside shower.
