              Superb place to stay in Koh Kood”

              Really lovely place to stay by a river that leads into the sea where the resorts provides kayaks you can go explore yourself to the nearby resorts and island Koh Raet. The staff are great here and the main thing we were surprised about were there were no insects or mosquitos even though you’re right by the river and mangroves. This place is great for relaxing in beautiful peaceful surrounding where you’ll see plenty of fish just outside of your room.

              Just as we remembered, Bann Makok is a very special place. On the river - 500m from the most pristine beach (with a cocktail bar!!!). Just canoe down and bliss out. Our room overlooked the river and comprised three spaces - including the outdoor shower. The staff are lovely and the food is great.

              We stayed here for one night which was way too short. This is an amazing little place by a fresh canal and you can easily take the canoe to a beautiful beach. The service is really good, the place is calm and relaxing and the rooms are built on the water. It is really fresh and clean, the interior decoration is really nice. The restaurant has great coctails! This place is perfect for 2-3 nights of relaxation.

              the head woman hostess did not take care of us well. when we needed information she spoke quickly, she did not listen to us and made us feel like were not important. it's over priced and the nearby beach you paddle to is only accessible at very low tide so you need to time it well if you want a beach to enjoy, the swimming though was great. one time at this resort is enough.

              Bann Makok really might be the coolest place I've ever stayed at. The decor and structure of the place is beautifully executed, and so unique! I was here on my honeymoon and out of the 6 different hotels we stayed at this is the most memorable experience. The location is great - you get to experience the jungle side of Koh Kood, while still being only a 5 minutes kayak from a gorgeous beach. The food here is awesome - possibly the best kitchen on the island. Get the fried bass with chilies. Every time we ate elsewhere we regretted the decision and wished we were back at Bann Makok. The bartender is great too! Finally, we loved the ambiance. Because it's so small (only 8 units), you get to know the staff and other travelers. One night, the staff spotted fireflies, and on the spot rounded up those of us that we hanging about to get on a boat to see fireflies and the bioluminescent water (only in high season!). That's the kind of familial vibe that you get. A+ experience!

              A relaxing retreat from the world”

              Staff - they were fabulous in every aspect! Location - a short kayak to a lovely beach. Atmosphere - relaxation and appreciation of nature.

              This is without a doubt the best place I have ever stayed. The staff were lovely, helpful and friendly - we had many good chats with Pang and Mark. They are able to accommodate anything you want! They will organise a massage for you at the hotel, rent you a moped to explore the island and even help you with travel arrangements before you arrive and after you leave. The place itself is set on a river which leads down to a small beach cove, which has clean sand and beautiful clear, warm sea water. It is so peaceful and tranquil when in the lounge area, you can relax in the hammock and just listen to the sound of the river and the wildlife. The island of Koh Kood is small and remote, so it is well worth hiring a moped and going out to explore the myriad of waterfalls and beaches on offer - one of the most lovely beaches I have ever seen is on Khlong Chao Bay, which is about a 15 minute moped journey south of Bann Makok. We have only just arrived back from Thailand and are already planning our next stay at Bann Makok :)

              Breathtaking Bann”

              Food, Staff, Surrounding

              We stayed in 3 resorts in our first trip to Koh Kood and Bann Makok definitely outshined the rest. We are impressed with its unique design - all its 8 rooms have individual functions and layouts, made from reclaimed woods. It's secluded, hidden among mangroves along the quiet river, but 5 minutes kayaking would bring you to the unspoiled beautiful beach. The food is superbly delicious and they are not stingy when comes to breakfast selection (even coffee!). The staff are friendly and attentive. We were brought to see fire flies at night and one staff even went extra miles to catch us one - pretty amazing experience. Bann Makok has surely raised the bar very high and would make a come back!

              a very pleasant stay”

              clean, away from the village, comfortable

              We stayed here for five days or so (can't remember - the time passed so quickly!). Bann Makok is quite secluded, and while early birds can enjoy very quiet mornings, late night owls can enjoy equally quiet nights with a starry sky. As for "in between", most rooms will hear at least some noise from the dining area, which is located in the very middle of the facility. However, since the hotel is small, and built in the mangroves, we suppose space is an issue, and such noise is probably compensated for by the proximity of food and drinks. The staff at this hotel were very helpful with everything, from cooking/serving food to arranging trips and scooter (moped) rentals. One complaint we might have was that we normally found the food too salty - but it may be that it was just us, used to less salt in food (we did see some Western European guests add extra salt into their food! :) Cocktails, too, were a little poor (but beer was available, too). For those expecting to be able to walk to the beach, this is not a place to stay! To get to the beaches, one must either drive, or take the boat (kayaks are available for the guests for no charge). But for those who like to paddle, it's great fun, as the canal is wide and calm, and the beach is, really, quite close. We, personally, like it this way. There may be little space there for children to play (whereas the canal is too deep for amateur swimmers), and families with smaller children should take this into consideration. However, for anybody in search for a remote and quiet corner, Bann Makok is a great place.

              Unforgetable experience @ Bann Makok The Getaway”

              Quiet, peaceful, great food, great staff, close to nature

              we enjoyed our stay at bann makok very much. it is perfect for those who want to immerse in a relax and peaceful environment. it has no tv and that's the purpose, to getaway from everything at home. there are only 8 rooms available and not crowded as other accommodations on the island. we were very happy with friendly staff. food was great especially thai dishes. the room was decorated in a retro style feeling very warm to stay. we love the shower in the bathroom! the beach is easily accessed by 5 minutes kayaking up the canal. bring lots of books to read and a minimum 2 nights stay is recommended! only drawback was small black ants that were harmless. we'd definitely be back again!

              A hidden gem just a day away from Bangkok”

              The location was amazing, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and the food was delicious.

              We had an amazing stay at Bann Makok. The resort is just a 5 minute Kayak journey (or 10 minute swim) away from a quiet sandy beach: great for relaxing, swimming, snorkeling or watching the sun set. The staff were amazing, the food delicious and the rooms tastefully decorated. It is quite a small operation lending it a very personal touch. They also have a great DVD collection there: you can sit by the water's edge in the evening watching films projected onto a large screen. Go there you won't regret it!

              Amazing getaway tucked in the mangrove trees”

              The staff is so friendly and welcoming! Accommodations are beautiful and peaceful and the food is delicious! I could spend the rest of my life here! Just be careful when booking a speedboat back to Trat because we purchased tickets from the front desk but it was for a commuter boat that took us to the wrong pier so we ended up missing our flight. Book your speedboat online in advance since they have a tendency to sell out as well. But even that mishap didn't ruin the stay, which was quite magical. I was lucky enough to visit during the best time for bioluminescence and was able to take a late night swim in the bay! The staff turned off some of the lights for me and sat by the dock with a flashlight to keep me company - they went above and beyond! Will never forget the incredible experience I had at Bann Makok due to the lovely staff and charming atmosphere.

              Fantastic place for a total chill-out”

              Great ambience, charming Thai rustic style accomodation, remote & quite

              I've been travelling extensively in Thailand during the past 6 years, and Bann Makok is probably the most charming place I've ever stayed in... Its a small 8 room Thai style resort, beautifully built with recycled wood, and maticulously maintained with great attention to detail. We just loved it. The food is good and the staff are super friendly and helpful. We stayed in Room 6, on the canal side, with greate view of the jungle on the other side. The canal sea water are very clean, and its only 10min kayak ride to the beach. Its quite an isolated place, with not much to do... and the WiFi is unrealiable, so total chill-out is sort of imposed on you... so bring your books :-) Perfect spot for switching-off... Loved it! Will come back, no doubt.

              The only disappointment was that we weren't able to stay longer as there was no availability, we moved instead to Captain Hook and it had nothing on Bann Makok. Quirky, and nestled among the mangroves they do veggie food and fab cocktails, with a happy hour from 5-7pm (2 for 1). Free kayak use, and peaceful places to curl up with a book, a real gem. If you want to avoid the resorts and crowds and come here. Thanks for having us
