Dew Drop Hut
Jungle setting
Chaweng Beach, Ko Samui
Surat Thani Province
Description
Set in a block of very overgrown jungle and one of Chaweng's few remaining true backpacker options, Dew Drop has an abandoned air only heightened by the difficulty of finding anyone who actually works there. The bungalows are very generously sized classic bungalows, with fan and really dingy cold water showers. We'd have some minor security concerns about staying here as the resort is not well lit at all and with a good push some of the huts would collapse. Rumour has it Dew Drop is to close in mid 2006, but we couldn't get a straight answer out of them when we asked in May 2006.
