In Thailand you will find that almost every hotel is gay friendly so how is this place different from everything else? Our customers are telling us that it is very different. It's not a hotel, guesthouse or a room for rent. It's almost like at home. It's really a homestay. Our returning guests tells us every visit brings new experiences and new friends. With only 5 rooms and a maximum of 10 simultaneous guest it's easy to befriend the other guests or be totally private. Usually negotiations around the breakfast table enables a variety of activities together. Sometimes there is an excursion to explore the gorgeous beaches and stunning nature of the magic Island, the market or to indulge the nightlife in Patong. If you just want to relax, hang out by the pool. If you need to work we can assure you about good Internet speed, free of charge.
