We believe that once you see for yourself what it is the island has to offer, you will come to share our philosophy of minimizing economical footprints.

Oct-Nov
A favorite among many visitors to the Island of Koh Phayam due to signifying the end of the Rain Season, where nature begins to bloom, and the air and atmosphere are unique. Some rainy days, but very pleasant.

Dec-Feb
Best time to visit Koh Phayam due to a variety of reasons, from lower humidity, better waves, and warm weather that is perfectly balanced for beach relaxation.

March-May
A popular time to visit as it brings with it slightly less tourists. Humidity increases somewhat, but considerably more affordable, and great for beach relaxation.

Jun-July
Not a great time for beach oriented vacations, but a tremendous opportunity to enjoy nature with minimal crowds, for a quiet family stay.

Aug-Sep
The time where nature takes over Koh Phayam the most during the year. Considered to be the least desirable time for visitation, but popular among niche audiences such as writers and explorers.
What Guests Say About Bamboo Bungalows
- bamboobungalowlove
Such a lovely and beautiful place to stay! the staff is so friendly and caring.. delicious food, nature, everything you need for everybody. i would definitely recommend this place! much… read more love for the beautiful koh payam bamboo bungalow staff!
09/03/2020lannabryanCame solo to surf and met the stand in manager who was nice enough. I opted for the best room with AC.
Let me clear shack/bungalows are what… read more they are but there are those that are well kept and those not. I would grade the room itself 6/10 for shack standards. The safety box was so rusted the whole thing broke and needed to be drilled. Bathroom and rooms were not dirty but not clean.
The worst part of the trip were the staff. The owner Avi is nice enough but he doesnt have the ability to run a tight ship. His staff are indifferent at best and rude at worst. When I told them the safety box was broken, they all spoke in Thai behind my back (not knowing I am Thai) saying they didn’t want to address the issue. Shocking and appalling.
The top of the line room which I paid extra for AC, yet the AC was also broken. I had to follow up with them 3 times and only got it fixed at 9PM when the problem was first reported at 11AM. The staff also had a litany of excuses: “I don’t work here” “we needed you here to fix it” etc.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t the only unhappy guest. I met two other Europeans who left after the first day and went to Flower Power – also an amazing establishment to eat and stay.
The waves and location are immaculate but Bamboo needs a 100% overhaul. Let the professionals do the job and leave the amateurs out of the picture. Let this be a wake up call – in no way do I want to harm a business but if they want to be sustainable it is time to face reality.
Nearby I rented a surfboard from a Swiss man who looks to be running a clean operation, the name I can’t recall but it’s part of phayam surfers.
14/07/2020KhunTonmaiBamboo Bungalow is my favorite resort in Koh Phayam, great spot on Ao Yai, great staff, beautiful comfortable rooms under the canopy of some trees which give natural cooling,… read more great food, many surfboards to use,,, small Paradise, I highly recomend it !

The resort is sited in Long Beach a very huge beach but unfortunately with send flies. The place is not very clean and probably this was the reason. The bungalows… read more are pretty nice but for me too expensive. The last days we went to Buffalo Bay and there not send flies.. So much better
21/12/2020HannabarakThis is a very nice place in front if Aow Yai, very big wild garden. The plave is pretty clean… Thai style. Unfortunately the beach is very dirty and nobody… read more take care of it. We are considering to move to Aow Khao Kwai… There the beach is so much better
14/08/2020VladypoppyThe place could be nice but unfortunately not do much well maintained. The beach is huge but nobody cleaned it, we went also in the other side Buffalo Bay and… read more I preferred is do much. The bugalow was clean enough but very humid, this depend of the rainy season.

Our In House Restaurant

Koh Phayam Island has seen tremendous growth in recent years, but when it comes to Koh Phayam Restaurants you will find a difficult time finding ones that rivals our in house restaurant, which is a key factor in the success and longevity of Bamboo Bungalows. We have, and continue to perfect and fuse together Asian Cuisine, as well as household European dishes.
Many of the dishes we serve are caught fresh, from Barracudas to Tiger Prawns. One thing you will never find in our establishment is MSG, as we care both for the quality of our food, as well as the health of our customers.
