Baan Kai Hostel

AC too cold, heavy traffic noise, Wifi sometimes not working.

Nuum is an amazing host who goes out of his way to help you. We were there for full moon party. The hostel is about 10mins from haad rin so is easy enough to catch a taxi to the party. The hostel was quite quiet so we went elsewhere for prees. Nuum makes an amazing coffee which was very much needed the next morning

We enjoyed our stay! It was pricier than expected but likely due to our stay being over New Year’s. The rooms are fairly basic but they have everything you need. The highlight of our stay by far was the kindness and helpfulness of the owner and his staff. They welcomed us with free reusable water bottles, treated us all to a communal dinner on NYE, gave us body/face paint to decorate with prior to the beach party, and had loads of recommendations for fun things to do around the island.

Had an amazing 4 day stay with Nuum and his cousin. Went above and beyond as a host and had such a nice vibe. We were there over new years, he kindly threw us a free buffet and body painting session ahead of the NYE Moon Party. As well as giving us a complimentary goodie bag upon arrival. The host is extremely skilled at making coffee, the toffee nut latte has my heart 🤌 if you’re after a chilled, relaxed vibe with a lovely host this is the place for you. Thank you so much for a lovely New ...

Thanks for the clean hostel, great coffee, fun chats, and all the assistance organizing activities!

Nuum is an amazing host who clearly cares about his guests and also makes fantastic coffee! I had a great stay here over the full moon and loved the atmosphere when everyone was getting ready to go out. Stay here if you're looking for a more chilled place to stay but still want to be sociable.

Super Hostel, Nuum ist großartig und hat ein guten Blick für die kleinen Dinge, gute Details, Kaffee ist außergewöhnlich gut, der Mann weiß was er tut, danke dafür. 👍👍👍😁😁😁

The staff here are so lovely and super helpful. And the coffee is also amazing!

A really good and homey hostel with wonderful owners. Would definitely come back! You’ll need a bike though as it’s in between places.

lovely clean rooms and chilled vibes, not particularly social or party hostel, great host who provides free drinking water, snacks, and even floss🥹 couldn't figure out how to lock the room so not particularly secure, but good location for parties

Loved this hostel! Nuum is so nice and helpful, he gave me numerous recommendations for places all over the island. I took the most beautiful photos there 🤓 Also there's free snacks for your late night cravings and you can borrow useful stuff like snorkeling equipment and motorbike helmets for free. The restaurant next door is the only one in Thailand I went to multiple times, it's great 👍

nice cosy hostel

Very clean and well-maintained hostel. The location is on the main road, so it can be a bit noisy and the view isn’t the nicest, but it’s very practical — the beach is about a 15-minute walk and you have everything right in front: laundry, 7-Eleven, motorbike rental and a cheap, delicious restaurant. Nuum is an incredibly kind and relaxed host, and Atar was also very friendly and helpful. The hostel has everything you need and the value for money is excellent. Definitely try the coff...

Stayed here for the full moon party and the staff were so helpful, they even got some neon paint out for us to use!! They provide towels, hairdryers, straighteners and complimentary snacks which was so nice. A 15 minute walk from a stunning beach with free sunbeds. Would really recommend + next to some amazing restaurants! Thank you 🤝

Unglaublich netter Mitarbeiter, extrem sauber, perfekt für alle die es etwas ruhiger mögen und guten Kaffee schätzen.

Amazing location, perfectly clean, Nuum is just too perfect, he helped me in every way that he could, would love to get back to see you nuum again.

Really amazing stay with Baan Kai. Nuum and Aree went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time on the island, giving us recommendations, helping with transport and even painting us before the Full Moon, thank you both very much!

Sehr liebe Menschen. Komme gerne wieder.

Kein Hostel eher ein zweites zuhause. Ich habe mich hier so wohl gefühlt wegen der Liebe und Arbeit die der Besitzer in dieses Hostel reinsteckt. Angefangen von dem Goodie bag den er mir als Willkommens Geschenk gab mit Snacks, Wasser und Gutscheine für seine tollen Kaffeekünste, war er immer aufmerksam was die Bedürfnisse seiner Gäste anging. Jedes mal wenn ich ihn hilflos um einen Rat gebeten habe, hat er und Aree mir geholfen. Danke Nuum und Aree für alles ! Hope I see u soon again �...

This is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in!! The owner is so lovely and gave us goody bags when we arrived. It included water snacks and a free coffee voucher (his coffee was the best I’ve had in Asia!) Everything was super clean and comfortable. And he was so helpful whenever I had questions. There was frisbees and snorkles we could borrow for the day for free aswell! Only one bad thing is that with where the hostel is, you definitely need to rent a bike to get to the main high street.

Der Gastgeber Nuum war unfassbar zuvorkommend und stand stets mit Rat & Tat zur Seite! Außerdem spricht er fließend Deutsch. Die Atmosphäre war sehr angenehm und in Nuum‘s Café im Eingangsbereich konnte ich super remote arbeiten und etwas Neues probieren: Cappuchino mit Pastazien-Milch. 🤩

Super super nice hostel. Staff is very dedicated to make your stay the best (incl. amazing coffee and matcha) and the other travelers were simply amazing.

genuinely one of the best hostel I've been so far 😍

Mein Aufenthalt war einfach fantastisch und hat meine Erwartungen bei Weitem übertroffen. Die Atmosphäre ist super, man bekommt tolle Insider-Tipps für die Insel und fühlt sich sofort willkommen. Ein riesiger Pluspunkt war auch die Sauberkeit – es war wirklich immer alles top gepflegt. Was den Aufenthalt so angenehm gemacht hat, war die unkomplizierte Organisation. Speziell für die Full Moon Party war die Lage ideal und der Transport perfekt geregelt. Genauso einfach konnten wir direkt v...

As I Expected Hostel Host is super Friendly Guy Num There is restaurant beside the hostel where you can have meals There is no room for doubt Felt like home I may consider it again

Everything is very good there, 10 min riding to go at the principal beach, easy accès to taxi. The staff are so kind and so helpful thank for this beautiful days !

One of my favorite hostels! Will always stay here when I come back. Nuum is the best!!!

This was such a nice hostel. Good atmosphere, super clean, comfy beds and the hostel owner is absolutely lovely. He helped us bring our bags to the pier since we only had one bike. Definitely recommend this place !!
