Baan Hinlad Home and Hostel

Great host and peaceful garden. Near the waterfall walk. Bikes were useful.

Hostello perfetto! Pulito, economico, Host molto gentile e disponibile e vicino ai vari punti di riferimento necessari

Petit havre de paix à Koh Samui ! J’ai vraiment adoré le cadre en pleine nature à côté de la cascade. La maison est vraiment charmante, le jardin également et l’équipe a été aux petits soins. Prévoyez un moyen de transport si vous y voyagez en hors saison car les taxis se font rare dans le coin.

Loved this place! Next to the waterfall on a calm road and next to the green scenery. The garden is so pretty and the staff was really helpful and nice! Helped rent the scooter as well. I recommend this place. Event with the heat, during the night gets cooler, so with the fan was fine

Really great property that is right beside a beautiful waterfall. We also used the bikes a few times to go to the beach and for getting food (and sunset rides!).

Our stay here was AMAZING! The host is the nicest man on this planet, the garden is like a dream and the accommodation provides everything you need! In the shared areas, you can find free coffee and also bathroom supplies! We would 1000% come again and are so happy that we booked this accommodation! The location is also amazing, not near any mass tourism spot and next to a waterfall. We loved it so much.

Mukava rauhallinen paikka. Hyvä sänky nukkua. Ei jääkaappia,varaudu siihen😊

Vam fer una nit i tot be un dels nois parla castella

- the location (jungle jam) - the garden & terrace - location nearby the waterfall and a temple - the host is amazing

- no fridge in public area - no AC

Clean, good location, nice staff!!

Personnel très agréable, les lieux sont propres c’est très nature donc très agréable et reposant

Il y a des insectes partout 😂

Super miejsce! Cisza i spokój! Blisko wodospadu! Pokoje ok, czyste łazienki! W pobliżu bardzo dobre śniadania!

Sehr toller Gastgeber, der sich um alles gekümmert hat. Schöne Außenanlage, saubere Sanitäreinrichtungen und Küche.

Etwas warm im Zimmer bei Nacht.

Супер хостел вдали от суеты. Кровати удобные, есть мини-кухня, всё чистенько приятно. Внутри двора очень красиво, есть коврики для занятия спортом. Хозяин супер дружелюбный, говорит на трёх языках. Можно также арендовать скутер, а ещё есть бесплатные велосипеды. В целом место очень классное, рекомендую. 10/10

Even though I stayed only one night, it was a wonderful experience. The location is beautiful, surrounded by greenery and very close to a waterfall, which made the stay feel peaceful and special. The bed was comfortable, the room cozy, and the host was very kind and welcoming.

Nothing to complain about. I only wish I could have stayed longer.

Everything

The bed could be a bit more silent

Super clean, cute and cozy spaces!!!Peacefull neighborhood and smiley staff. We will b back!

Sehr netter Gastgeber…für den Preis hat man alles was man brauch!

I highly recommend this place. Clean accommodation with a terrace and a beautiful garden that makes wonderful sounds at night. Water, coffee, tea, toaster and microwave available. Possibility to rent a bike to the nearby beaches. And a great and helpful owner. Thanks again for a great stay!

I had a great stay. The location is close to the beautiful waterfall , street is quiet and peaceful. Property has a beautiful garden and area to relax and chill 😎 ☀️

Lorsque nous sommes arrivés, notre hôte est venu nous chercher en voiture gratuitement depuis le port. Ce qui est très pratique car le logement est à 40 min~ à pied du ferry. Les vélos mis à disposition gratuitement sont très biens pour tes courtes distances, nous les avons utilisés pour aller à la plage, et pour rejoindre différentes activités. Il est situé à côté d'une magnifique cascade dans laquelle on peut se baigner, un petit chemin de randonnée pour voir la cascade existe et il y a quelques restaurants et cafés tout près, le 7 eleven est à 10 min en vélo également. Le logement est propre et les parties communes sont nettoyées régulièrement. Il y a de l'eau potable à disposition, un micro-onde et autres ustensiles dans la kitchenette. Par chance, il restait des places dans d'autres chambres avec un accès direct à la terrasse, l'hôte nous a proposé de nous changer de logement à notre arrivée pour avoir un accès à la terrasse/jardin depuis notre chambre et nous étions seules, ce qui était incroyablement calme et serein pour les parties communes, nous en avons profité pleinement. L'hôte est disponible à la réception et très réactif par WhatsApp, nous avons pu lui poser différentes questions sur les alentours et le fonctionnement des vélos et de la machine à laver. Notre expérience était excellente, nous recommandons ce logement pour passer quelques nuits à Koh Samui.

La réservation que nous avions faite initialement était pour un lit superposé sans accès direct à la terrasse et sans fenêtre. Or il n'y a pas de photo montrant cette chambre là, ce qui est dommage. Nous souhaitions utiliser les vélos durant la totalité de notre séjour, mais les vélos sont stockés à l'extérieur et sujet aux intempéries, ils sont donc rouillés, nous n'étions pas sereine à l'idée de les utiliser pour des longues distances. Il y a une kitchenette mais malheureusement il n'y a pas de frigo si l'on souhaite stocker des plats ou ingrédients. Le logement est un peu petit si vous restez longtemps mais nous y sommes restées trois nuits et c'était suffisant.

Very quiet and peaceful Lovely garden and shower Great location

Nothing I didn't like

Rewelacyjne miejsce! Hostel jest bardzo czysty i zadbany, a kontakt z gospodarzem – wzorowy. Gospodarz jest niezwykle miły i pomocny, oferuje podwózkę na prom i z powrotem, a także częstuje pysznymi owocami prosto z własnego ogródka – banany i papaje smakowały wyśmienicie! Na miejscu można za darmo korzystać z rowerów, a także wypożyczyć skutery. Okolica jest cicha i spokojna, idealna do odpoczynku. Duży taras i piękny ogród tworzą niesamowity, klimatyczny nastrój. To zdecydowanie najlepsze miejsce na Koh Samui – polecam z całego serca! ❤️

Lovely Place to stay! It’s located near a waterfall, you can rent bikes for free! There is a huge terrace and a wonderful garden, the owner is super helpful and friendly. We got 2! papayas from the garden. We liked it so much, we even extended our stay there. You also have the possibility to rent motorbikes to discover the whole island!

I loved everything

Very friendly multi-lingual host who is thoughtful for each host and will help with anything. Great natural location and diverse range of guests to meet when staying for longer times, relaxing and secluded part of Samui.

Très propre. Au calme. Propriétaire d’une bonté extrême ! Des vélos sont à disposition. Les cascades sont au bout de la rue et sur la droite vous avez un café délicieux

La gentillesse de notre hôte et les vélos gratuits qui nous ont permis de bien nous balader ! L’emplacement au cœur de la nature à côté d’une cascade est vraiment sympas aussi !!

Definitely it’s one of the best places where I stayed for the last period. I was lucky and stayed there alone. This place is close to waterfall within 10 min of walk. All facilities need are provided. And the whole vibe of this place was like a miracle and reminded me Bali with its rich nature, amazing sounds of birds, the meditative atmosphere and calmness. No noise, no fear, all is safe, modern. Respects and gratitude to the owner🌸

Protect yourself from mosquitos, there is no windows in the room. So mosquito net could be a good thing to have.

Anjar, the owner, was very friendly and very helpful. He helped hire a motorbike 250 baht/day. Quiet location, very near Hinlad waterfall (1 min). 45 min walk up to waterfall. Make sure you go after rain so you have water flowing. Wear walking shoes, trainers. Sandals not suitable. We underestimated time taken and came down in the dark with our phone torches. Exciting but a bit scary. There are 2 local authentic Thai restaurants 150 metres away. Great food. They close at 6 pm. There's a fantastic Korean/Thai bbq 5 mins away by motorbike. Go to roundabout, turn first left. 285b pp. Delicious bbq buffet. Fill your boots. Quiet Lipa Noi beach is 10 mins away by motorbike. Good selection of beach bars/food. Nathon is 10 min away. Get ferry from here to Dontak pier on mainland or to koh phangan. Lovely Chaweng Beach is 45 mins away. 620 baht - use Bolt app. Great for bustling bars, clubs and restaurants. 24hr Self service laundry 7/8 mins by motorbike. Go to roundabout, turn right towards Nathon. On left side, 100m past the 7-11( on the right). If you go before 8pm friendly attendant will help you and put your laundry in basket when done.

Basic 1 bunk accomodation. Small room but adequate. No frills. Bring bug spray and maybe uv travel Mozzy zapper. Jinjocks (gheckos) were cute but noisy. Don't keep food in room - will attract ants. Shared bathroom and toilets between 2 rooms was fine. A bit out of the way, but if you hire a motorbike, easy access to Lipa Noi and Nathon Beaches. Need a good downpour to appreciate the waterfall. Electric sockets in room were not great but used sockets outside room in shared tea/ coffee making area. See

L’endroit est magnifique. Anjar est très gentil. Tout était très propre. Le rapport qualité/prix est excellent. Des vélos sont mis à disposition gratuitement. Nous avons passé 2 jours parfaits. Un grand merci

L’emplacement est un peu reculé mais parfait si à la recherche d’un coin moins touristique!!

Clean

No air con

I just loved the shared den, and garden. So peacefull in the morning. Sounds of the jungle which is almost reachable by hand.

You get your moneys worth.

It is a beautiful place, very serene and peaceful. There’s good facilities, simple but comfortable and very nice. The host was amazing, helpful and informative and always available when we had questions. We didn’t have issues with mosquitoes or noises or anything like that! One of the most beautiful waterfalls is right next to the place as well!

It is a little out of the way but then again if you have scooters it is perfect. This island is quite big so getting around without it from here is a little difficult, but the place does provide bikes to get to town/ beach 20-30 mins on bike 😊

Clean, well equiped, beautiful location

It was a very quiet and peaceful place. You have whatsapp contact with the host, who is always available. Clean bathroom and there is a washing machine. You can use cutlery and all from the hostel.

Amazing!! We need more guy like Anjar in this World ! Thanks 👌

The views, the owner, and the rooms it was all very clean

Quiet! Natural surroundings. Sounds of nature, waterfalls and running water. Rooms are well suited to solo travellers or couples. Well priced and good value accommodation! Accommodating and friendly staff. Ha-Kun-A-Matata vibes! Property provides more than most! From coffee and tea, to mosquito coils! Fresh smelling towels, crisp linens, hot showers!

What’s not to like? It’s a great place for the money. Great for backpackers !

Ghost was be so helpfull and really kind! Special place on map Koh samui

Such a great stay on Koh Samui. Anja is such a great host and has thought of everything! We really enjoyed the whole patio area and how green the garden is.

everything is fine, very nice, nice hotel, quiet around. The owner is very helpful. Right next to a beautiful waterfall with a nice route through the jungle. As the place is a bit out of the way, the owner offers free bikes and allows you to rent a scooter. also offers transport from/to the port. I recommend it

The property is beautiful and situated near a waterfall and a temple, where you can enjoy the soothing sounds of nature. The street is long and lined with lush greenery, and there are bikes available for rent, so you won’t have to walk far. Plus, there’s a restaurant and a fantastic coffee shop right next door. The hostel features four private rooms with bunk beds and fans. The atmosphere is cozy and quiet, making it perfect for those who want to escape the crowds. There’s also a laundry machine available for use at a cost of 40 Baht, but you’ll need 10 Baht coins to operate it. Anjar is incredibly friendly and helpful, and he even drove us to Nathon Pier. I highly recommend staying here—it's definitely one of my favorite accommodations!

Host Anjar the best !!

Nothing

What a great stay! We loved our stay here. The host is super friendly and makes you feel right at home. The toilet and shower are clean and only used by max 1 other room of 2 guests. The garden is stunning and the covered common area is a great place to hangout outside your room or mixing with the 3 other rooms. There are bicycles you can borrow for free to ride in to town - x. 20 minutes or you can take a walk along the river and see the various layers of little waterfalls as you stroll through the jungle path. Amazing value and super peaceful.

Beautiful view of the river from the terrace, even after the recent storms that had washed some trees away. Staff were super helpful, picking me up and dropping me off for the ferry and lending me a bike for free! The bedroom doors open onto the terrace where you can hear all the loud insect sounds so makes you feel like you're almost in the jungle but also protected. Very close to excellent coffee shop and waterfall walk on a quiet road. Drinking water, tea, instant coffee available on the terrace. Very good value for money.

Just quite easy to hear what is going on with other guests, some guests were sick and I could hear that very clearly in the night. Quite a lot of insects, lizards, geckos on the terrace/bathroom area (but not in the room) - some people might like that though!

Lovely gardens and great value get away venue. The bunk beds were fun and the little shelf meant I could do some writing in bed looking out to the gardens listening to nature.

Better than expected. Anjar is a super host! He is very attentive and friendly and it takes good care of the property every day. There is water for drink, coffe, tea, microwave and even laundry facilities. The rooms are small, but the beds are clean and confortable, bathrooms are well build with everything separte so, one can take a shower while another can use tje toilet. The terrase is super nice too.

The place was very pretty, with a big garden and all the facilities super clean and replaced daily. i really loved the fact that we had microwave and hot/cold water! The host is lovely and made sure everything was alright always! Would recomend

The only thing was the mosquitos which obviously is not a bad thing! I would just improve the room with a mosquito net and make sure u bring spray!

staff super nice and helpful, clean, location nice - directly next to the waterfall, the terrace / garden was so comfortable. can get a lot of work done there too. good bathroom. kitchen good. scooter rental very easy. my go-to on the island for scooter and taxi now!

no fridge. room small but totally okay. no cleaning of the room during stay but that’s okay too. some mosquitoes outside sometimes

Everything was excellent, service, room with an amazing terrace, location far from the hustle, close to the really local street food. We used the bikes as well as we rented a scooter for 1 day. Amazing place to relax and enjoy Koh Samui!

One of our favourite hostels during our 10 month trip. Anjar is an incredible host - he kindly greeted us at the pier and made us feel immediately welcome. The property overlooks a tropical garden with the most magical terrace. We spent our time watching the rain and enjoying nature whilst drinking a coffee, or morning yoga using their complimentary mats! It’s in a quieter area, immersed in nature… Anjar can have a scooter delivered to you on arrival if you want to explore the island. This place is truly magical and I wish we could return.

When immersed in nature, you can expect mosquitos - bring some repellant!

I stayed here for 8 nights and had amazing time!! Super clean, comfy beds, great location - not far from beaches, grocery stores, a waterfall. The hostel provides bicycles free of charge. You can also rent a motorbike for a reasonable price. The owner is fantastic - super friendly, kind and knowledgeable of the island, so he can give lots of tips on what to visit! The hostel has an awesome terrace with unlimited coffee/tea/drinking water. The terrace is surrounded by nature so it’s super relaxing and peaceful. Definitely recommend staying here!

Everything was amazing!

The host was very welcoming, and also provided us with great tourist information as well as tickets to the full moon party including pick up and drop off transport to and from the island

This place is very cozy - you get a room for yourself and only 3 neighbors. There is a shared dining and lounge area, so it is easy to make friends and not too overwhelming. The place is beautiful, well kept, quiet. You can just chill here all day and wouldn't be bothered by it. There is a cool waterfall near the area if you want to cool down

It doesn't have an AC, but it has a fan, so it didn't bother us that much.

The owner was so helpful and friendly. He took care of us the whole stay. The hostel is in a quiet area surrounded by nature. The location is great as it is in a local area where you can find real thai restaurants with local vibes.

Everything was up to expectations!

The place is peaceful and beautiful, the owner super kind and helpful! The area is quite local but has still beautiful beaches and waterfalls. There are also great local restaurants very close. The owner pick us up from the pier for the check in and check out which was a real plus. The free bicycle rental was also very practical to move around. I’d highly recommend to have a break from the touristy and agitated areas of the islands.

The staff were very friendly and helpful!!! They made the stay more enjoyable!

Very quiet if you’re looking for something more chilled and relaxed. Good Facilities and optional use of the bikes made getting around a lot easier as the accommodation is slightly away from the centre. The staff were so friendly and offered pick up and drop off when we arrived and very helpful when it came to any questions we had about the area!

Good, calm, clean hostel. You live alone , hostel has bikes and bicycles for free, around jungle and cheap food 👍 Anjar pick me up from the boat and call to taxi on Samui airport!

Nothing

Super location. Quiet nice area.

Good WiFi Offered motorbikes to rent (250 per day) Separate shower and toilet facilities Shared outdoor space with other guests Free drinking water, tea and coffee Free pickup from port upon arrival Owner very friendly

Rooms very small Rooms get very hot Insects can get into the room very easily Fan doesn’t get both beds Isolated from everything unless you walk/commute into the nearest town Wrong side of the island for holiday makers

Our stay was great! It’s very zen, relaxing and out of the way of any noise other than wildlife, it feels as though you’re staying in the jungle. There’s many kitchen utensils including a cold water refill machine (super handy in the heat) The host is super attentive and friendly, he was very easy to get in touch with and helped us with any queries we had. There was also a power cut due to bamboo falling on the wires and we messaged to let him know, not knowing what was the cause and he was at the property within 15mins and explained what happened! There was people outside fixing it before he arrived and everything was back up and running within 30 mins. We would definitely stay here again.

There’s nothing we didn’t like about our stay. I’d recommend however lathering on some mosquito spray we noticed a fair few here but didn’t cause us any bother. If you’re wanting to get about the island I’d definitely hire a scooter, the host helped us do this at a very reasonable price, we were able to get to the other side of the island and the main Koh Samui spot in around 30 minutes. So many places to see and do around!!

Anjar, the host, is really nice, friendly and respectful. He even brought me mini mangos from his garden one day as we were talking about the plants he was having in the hostel garden the day before. Delicious! I really enjoyed my stay there! One of the best things are the free bikes - you can explore much of the island that way if you don't have a scooter. They are old bikes, but do their job perfectly. Brakes working! I was also surprised, that you get a whole room to yourself if you book for just one person. I was expecting to have to share the room with someone else at that price. So it's really affordable. A beautiful waterfall is just a hop away, but you may be tempted to just stay on the property, as the garden is beautiful. Really nice atmosphere there.

If you are sensitive to heat, you might want a place with AC. But I slept like a baby, as the fan in the room was very powerful and it cools down at night anyway...

Beautiful and peaceful place, far enough from the crowds but not so far from the beach by motorbike. You can rent a motorbike directly at your accommodation, ask in Anjar. Anjar, the owner, is the kind of person you are really happy to meet on your trip. Perfect from the start to the end of your stay. He comes directly to the pier and takes you through your accommodation and does the same when you leave, free of charge. He is always available to give you advice and help, always smiling. This guy is a legend! I wish you the best for the future, thank you again my friend!

Add a fridge in the common area would be a good thing imo.

The property is very well maintained and managed, the rooms are clean, cozy, the price is very good value for the great quality provided.

The manager is super helpful, speaks many languages and is knowledgeable about the surroundings. The free shuttle service is so convenient and there are bicycles to borrow too.

The staff is really nice. Nacho is the best, very helpful and friendly Everything was clean, the rooms have fan and there is cold water and a handy microwave. The surrounding are very beautiful, close to some waterfalls

The closer busy area with supermarket is half and hour walking and the beaches are not the best, renting a motorbike is worth it.

Great little place to stay , offer pick up as well

Our own private room with an outside table. The host was very helpful. It was clean. It was peaceful and quaint

It was very far away from any amenities other than the waterfall. Would need a car/taxi/scooter to get about.

Great little property. Rooms are fairly basic but for the price it was great. Lovely communal space at the back with some patio and grassed area. Very quiet location near a fun waterfall where you can go swimming

No fridge which was a shame as it’s too hot to leave stuff out! Some way from town but can use bikes at the property for free
