About

The main benefits to choose Bunkhouse

A brand new, social hostel in Ban Tai with clean modern dorms, a laid-back tropical vibe and a location that puts the island's beaches and parties within easy reach

Bunkhouse is a brand new, modern, social hostel where travelers feel less like guests and more like family. Guests consistently praise our spotless facilities, welcoming staff, and the free tea, coffee and cookies that are always on hand.

Expect a cozy bar and upstairs lounge to meet new travelers, daily movie nights and games, and a BBQ before Full Moon Party nights — plus quiet spaces for whenever you want to recharge.
