Cool vibe! You feel more connected to nature. Relaxed and authentic place. Electricity only 6pm-5am was only a bit annoying with the fan in the morning (very hot)

Great place to meet fellow climbers. The bathroom sink leaked and there is only electricity until 4am, when the fans shut off(no a.c.) Tough place to be when it’s very hot. Otherwise enjoyed my time here, good people and location.

Don’t go there! The atmosphere was really unpleasant. The hostel is very run down. All of the staff members / owners are very heavy weed smokers, it almost feels like they are not aware of their surroundings/ reality anymore. I never experienced such unfriendly staff in my whole trip, they are mean, not helpful at all with anything and sometimes they don’t react at all. We even left the place early because we couldn’t stand this heavy atmosphere anymore.

chill spot, kind of off the beaten path, id make sure to charge a power bank, there is one outlet in the room and the fan is necessary at night, all in all great location just make sure you're ready to rough it a bit

It should be clearly stated before booking that the hostel can only be reached by boat. This information is very important and made my arrival quite stressful when I found out. Facilities are very minimal: one power outlet and electricity only at night. The bathroom is very old and the toilet was not clean. Unfortunately I wouldn’t stay here again.

Loved this place so much. Such good vibes, and super chilled out. This place is surrounded by jungle, trees and greenery. Listening to the nature and waking up to roosters crowing and chickens around your hut is just amazing

They did an excellent job with the bungalows here. It’s not luxury but if you’re on Tonsai, chances are you aren’t looking for luxury, and this place is perfect for your stay.

It’s a fairly unique hostel, you need to understand the vibe, it's not a posh place. If you’re looking for a place to chill in nature and you love climbing, it’s perfect for you!! Less suitable for those who want to explore Ao Nang, Krabi, and the islands.

it was as expected really. not the cleanest, but rustic and functional. I think for rock climbers it's a good place to stay but for non climbers I think it'd be hard to stay here many nights. the lack of AC and electricity wasn't a huge problem. when I was there the atmosphere was a bit odd. lots of people smoking and keeping to themselves. but I guess that can fluctuate depending on who is there. some board games there would be nice

Close to local restaurants and 5min walk from beach. Unfortunately our second night was disrupted at 3am by mice coming in through aircon which didn’t work. It’s also important to be prepared with cash, which was not explicitly specified on the booking.

Uadéal si l'on aime ambiance hippie. Bungalows spartiates dans bel environnement. Par contre il faut payer dès que l'on arrive. On n'avait pas assez. On y est resté 2 couples 2 chambres pendant 4 jours. Plutôt que de nous dire qu'il pouvait attendre le lendemain on lui a donné des euros et là waouh le taux de change. Pas très backpaker tout ça 😫 Accès pas facile à trouver devrait donner petit plan quand réservation confirmée

Tonsai no está conectado con el centro de Krabi; solo se llega en longtail. La electricidad funciona únicamente de 18 a 6. El hostel está “bien”, aunque es caro para lo que ofrece. El día que llegamos, muy cansados (nos quedamos 5 días), el trato del personal no fue el mejor: nos cambiaron dólares a una cotización pésima y tuvimos que aceptar porque no teníamos efectivo y nos insistieron con el depósito. Se muestran como chill, pero no ofrecen ni agua y hasta nos cobraron por calen...

Over a decent experience, but the location was a little misleading. We didn't realize that there was several other hotels on the beach (rookie mistake) so unplugging wasn't entirely accurate I would say. A bummer to life electricity when you know the hotels around you have it the whole time. that said, I was aware I would not have electricity during the day when booking.
