• I found Paradise!!

  Velmi dobré a levné ubytování Suchanaree Bungalows. Bungalovy, ale jsou velmi mírné a bez klimatizace. Na zemi jsou matrace, ale bungalov je velmi čistý. Majitel je příjemný a přátelský. Strávil jsem 6 nocí sem a byl jsem velmi spokojen. Suchanaree je nejkrásnější pláži na ostrově Koh Mak, je stále rájem !!!!!! Jídlo bylo velmi chutné za přijatelné ceny. Rád bych se tam dostanu brzy vrátil a zůstal tam víc času.I našel ráj! Suchanaree video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-Fguh4Cvww

• A lovely place to spend a few days

  I pretty much agree with everything ''Exacto'' says. I had a great time here. Aum is lovely, speaks good English and is genuinely friendly. The food is reasonably priced and quite good. The two issues everyone had with Ko Mak were the sandflies and the rubbish: both of the main beaches were covered with tourist sporting big blotchy bites! Mine drove me insane for five days. Insect repellent during the day helped somewhat to prevent further bites. The resorts clean up their section, but venture to one of the empty beaches and you are sitting amongst bottles, flipflops etc. Watch out for jellyfish - three people were badly stung in two days. As for Gary, he is rather eccentric so I guess an acquired taste! At first, I found him a little too in my face and being overly ''helpful'' but by the end, I adored him!

• Watch out for falling coconuts!

  Suchanaree is run by a delightful young lady named Aum (Oom). We stayed here for four nights the week before New Year's. Our hut was pretty basic, with a mattress on the floor, mossie net, and cold water shower. The 600 baht per night was expensive for the room we got, but we what we were really paying for was the location on a lovely beach with good swimming. There is also a small mini-reef just off shore up the beach a bit for snorkeling. Since there is only the one other resort on this section of beach, it is quite uncrowded, except for perhaps the two hours around lunch time when day trippers make their way over from other islands. The beach is groomed in front of the huts, and there are free chairs and hammocks available for use. Once a week they spray for sand flies directly in front of the huts as well, but about 100 meters up the beach the sand flies get worse as does the trash that has washed up on shore. Suchanaree is a small-scale operation, with only six huts. Huts #1 and #2 are the best value by far, so try to reserve those if you can. They don't have email, but you can try to make a reservation by calling Aum on her cell phone at 089 606-2413. The resort is nestled under a canopy of coconut palms, which gives great shade but definitely pay attention, since coconuts and palms can and do fall to the ground often! Or, enjoy one in the restaurant for 30 baht. The small on-site restaurant is quite good by the way and reasonably priced. The four of us in total ate more than 40 meals here and were not disappointed once. Finally, for the record, the ever-present Gary is not Aum's husband but rather a long-term guest who sort of helps out around the place. We didn't find him to be anywhere near as charming or helpful as others have suggested.

• Just renovated, great!

  The management were just finishing up renovations when we visited. The freshly painted bungalows with new grass roofs are comfortable and come with good bathrooms. We paid 300B but the price will probably be 400B for the high season. The location is unbeatable! The beach is great and secluded, but on the other hand Koh Mak Resort is just around the corner if you need any services. The owners and Gary the resident Brit are very friendly. Recommended!
