Baan Rim Nam
Fisherman's house on a beautiful stretch of river

What we say: 
This out-of-the-way guesthouse is set in one of the most gorgeous spots on the island. A private residential area, the back deck looks out over a small estuary running towards the sea. On of a row of brightly painted fishing houses, the spot is accessed by a long wooden walkway through mangroves (the entrance is opposite Panviman Resort). Rooms are large, simple and comfortable, with air-con, a private bathroom and hot shower. The beach is about five minutes walk away through tranquil coconut groves. The helpful British/Thai owners can help organise a seafood barbecue, Thai food, or breakfast if desired. Guests can learn to cook Thai by participating in the food preparation. They also provide a free kayak, perfect for those who want to see the glow bugs. Be sure to call in advance as with only three rooms this place is often full. Free WiFi for guests. Not ideal for children.

mixed feelings
We stayed for 4 nights and have mixed feelings. The place is lovely, the lounge area is really great. Not too far from the beach or town. The path to the main road is very hot with hardly any shade, I recommend hiring a scooter to get around. For diner Tiger Hut on the beach or one of the restaurants at the other side of the khlong are very good! The drawbacks for us were it's a little too quiet. We hardly saw the other guests, we only saw Ian (the owner). We like to meet people and chat a little. Another thing is the new rooms, we were in one of them, which are very basic, no closet or table or chairs. And as the three original rooms have a little outside sittingspace, our room hadn't. For a few nights it's nice, but I wouldn't return.

Super Location & Lovely Rooms
My Wife & I with our 4 year old Son had a wonderful 3 days,we would of stayed longer but the Guest House was fully booked. We had such a wonderful time that we have booked for next year. The English owner '' Ian '' with his Thai partner '' Mam'' were very helpful with their wealth of knowledge & advice of the island.

Lovely
I stayed here in May 2005 - it was lovely, just everything I could want from retreat on an island, not the rampant commercialism found on some parts of Ko Chang. Khlong Prao felt like our own private beach, and Baracuda Bar (a short walk from the guesthouse, on the way to the beach) nearby provided us with great food and drinks. I'm dying to return! -Adrianna
