"I stayed at Living Chilled for 15 nights and I could not have hoped for a better stay! I usually like comfort when traveling alone, and the room looked very clean on pictures. I was not disappointed, the room was fantastic with a fan and air con, a fridge, a coffee machine, a modern TV with HDMI, a balcony and an en-suite bathroom with hot water and a lot of space.

"One of my favourite places I stayed while in Thailand for a month. Very clean and I loved my private room with the balcony. Great breakfast and the free beach shuttle was great. I did get woken up by nearby cockerels every morning but I didn't mind. The hostel didn't have a social vibe while I was there but I think that was more down to the people who were staying there at the time."

"I stayed in the dorm closest to reception for 1 night with late checkout. Staff were very helpful and understanding, thankfully with a very good level of English too! Food is okay, maybe a little pricey compared to other places, but live acoustic music outside every night. 3 for 2 cocktails makes it worth it if doing rounds with 2 friends! Overall a good stay! Thankyou :)"

"I booked the single room with fan and access to public bathrooms. It was a relaxed guesthouse with a handful of other travelers. Free coffee was nice. The price and location were great. Only negative was the heat in the rooms during the day! I’m sure the rooms with A/C were better. But anyways, thas why you go to the beach :) The gueshouse offers plenty of amenities too. Cheap food, bike rentals, and tour information. Lovely staff overall! And a friendly dog too."

The owner Guy was very nice, great communication and arranged ferry tickets, snorkeling tour, and motor scooter all payable at the end of the stay. Highly recommend this place! "
