What we say:

Possibly the best value resort on the island, Baan Koh Mak is a collection of small white concrete bungalows circled around a small hand-built lagoon. Pleasantly decorated, they have an open and light airy feel. Two styles are available, and although they are priced the same, one version is larger, with a front that opens out and extra windows. All have private bathrooms with a cold shower and western toilet, as well as a brightly painted front door. The beach cafe serves tasty, decently priced Thai and western food, and other services include beach trips, motorbike, windsurf and kayak rental. It's important to note that the management team which have been running this place so successfully over the past 5 years have moved on now and the place has new owners and staff. Whether they can uphold the fantastic reputation is yet to be seen.

Fan Bungalows not shown

FYI: If you book a fan only bungalow during high season it is 700 B. Note that it will not be one of the concrete bungalows shown, it will be a basic wooden bungalow at Koh Mak Cottages, right next door, which is fine, but just note you won't be getting the colorful concrete version with nice plants, etc.. The beach here is great and if you windsurf they have tons of windsurfers for rent. Good cheap food is served at Baan Ko Mak and in the restaurants on the street behind the resort. Bring your own sunblock as its waaay expensive on the island. If you land at the Koh Mak Resort Jetty via speedboat, they will call Baan Koh Mak to pick you up with a truck. Also note this is a sleepy island, so if you want raging parties go elsewhere. Good snorkeling and diving nearby at ko rung.
