Description
Siam Cookie is a great place for backpackers who want a bit more peace and quiet. Located on Sai Nual Bay, Siam Cookie has its own beach with decent swimming and snorkelling, though it is pretty rocky. Free snorkels are available for guests, but there seems to be a shortage of masks. Most of the inexpensive accommodation here is very small, very basic bamboo huts. They are drafty with slatted windows and their old linens smell somewhat dank. On the plus side, they are very near the water and guests will enjoy spectacular views. There is also one large two-storey hut with three bedrooms, nothing fancy but great for larger groups on a budget. Siam Cookie's main restaurant is a slightly more expensive version of the standard bungalow operator's restaurant, although their Banana Rock Bar across the beach provides a very cool place to hang out. This multi-level driftwood-decorated bar sits on the rocks just above the water and offers good drinks in a laid back island atmosphere.

Char Bungalow
Hat Sai Nual, Ko Tao
Up the hill from Sai Nual Bay and along its southern cliff sits Char Bungalows. The friendly couple at Char accommodates mostly backpackers. Their cheapest huts are tiny and generally in sad shape.
