LUCKY BUNGALOW KOHMOOK

Great location near the village center but not too noisy. Beds were NOT hard like most places. Good sleep with a lovely garden in the morning to watch hornbills if you're lucky.
Good location to pop to the pier in the morning to see dugongs too, the owner will advise about times and places to do that and other things.

Super chilled, great location and incredibly helpful hosts! This is a small, friendly island with one 'main' beach - come here expecting to chill out. There are also some half-decent spots for snorkelling too!

If you follow me or have read any of my reviews before, you'll know my ethos: location, room state/facilities matter, but what matters most are the interactions I have with people.

In that respect, Lucky Bungalows did not disappoint!

This was my first visit to Koh Mook, despite having been based in Trang for a little while and I had a really pleasant stay.

So I had turned up without a booking, on the hope and the vaguely educated assumption, that I would probably find a room (and I did). Even my boat journey was unplanned (I was deliberately laid back about the whole process). What I did have, though, was a small amount of cash and my bank card (I had already researched whether there was an ATM on the island - there is.... one).

After walking a little while (and having already scoped out a couple of potential resorts to stay in) I found Lucky Bungalows. To cut a long story short, Tittaree and Jon were really helpful during my stay, assisting me with bike hire, return journey information, a lift to the pier on my day of departure and also just generally being very warm and welcoming (not to mention doing me a huge favour which required them putting their utmost trust in me - thank you both for helping me with that!).

On their kind nature alone, I rate this stay so highly. Everything else was a bonus :)

Travel:
From the mainland (Trang) to Koh Mook:
- Head to Khuan Tung Ku Pier. There is one ferry (this one is big enough to take your motorbike) per day (approx 100/200 baht) which leaves the mainland at 12:30 pm and there are other smaller boats on either side of that time. A Long-tail boat costs around 700 baht (travelling solo), however, if you wait until other passengers wish to travel, it becomes cheaper - I think I paid 100 baht, one-way).

From Koh Mook to the mainland:
- The main/big ferry returns to mainland Trang, departing from Koh Mook pier at approx. 8 am (this is the one you can take a small vehicle onto). Apparently, there are other smaller ferries that make journeys, at 9 am and 2 pm. Unsure about costs for those. Long-tail boats, similarly, return to Trang for (presumably) the same price as the journey to the island.

(On the island itself, you can hire a bike with little fuss for approx 200/250 baht)

Next time I return, I'll be taking my walking shoes to visit the view point!

great budget bungalows! good value (we paid 1000 thb/night incl ac in march 2020), perfect location (close to bars & restaurants, 10 min walk to sivalai beach). the room was clean and had all you need - ac, fan, fridge, big bathroom with hot water, free coffee, wifi etc.. and there was a pretty garden & friendly staff! looks a lot better than in their own pictures!

This is the second hotel I've been to in ko mook and it's by far, better than the other one. Very nice, bright and clean bungalows facing the garden. We wished we stayed there longer. Very polite owners, they arranged the boat and the transportation to the pier for us. Highly recommended

Close to food and beaches ⛱ good prices for room with air.

Die Anlage und die Zimmer sind sehr schön und die Besitzer sind außergewöhnlich hilfsbereit und sehr nett. Ich hab mich hier sehr wohlgefühlt und werde mit Sicherheit wieder herkommen.

สะอาด ปลอดภัย มีเครื่องปรับอากาศ เครื่องทำน้ำอุ่น ทีวี ตู้เย็น ที่ตากผ้า ห้องครัว กาแฟ อาหารเช้า wifi กล้องวงจรปิด ห้องหอม

L'hotel è semplice, la camera deluxe spaziosa e ha tutti i confort; bagno spazioso.
Il wifi andava un po piano, lo ho fatto presente e in 2 ore lo hanno cambiato e va benissimo. Complimenti !
Letto va abbastanza bene.
A 2 passi Il paesello di Koh muk è molto piccolo e cè poco da fare; qui si viene per il relax...per questo consiglio hotel sulla spiaggia.
Si mangia buon pesce ad un prezzo ragionevole.
Bellissima la emerald cave raggiungibile con long tail boat al prezzo di 700bath circa.
Molto bella la spiaggia opposta al porto con 50 bath di mototaxy.

Hat uns sehr gut gefallen, absolute Empfehlung

Wir verbrachten Ende Oktober / Anfang November 4 Nächte dort und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Bungalowanlage ist zentral gelegen, so dass man nicht weit in den Ort bzw. zu den Restaurants und Geschäften hat. Auch zum Strand ist es nicht weit.
Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, die Bungalows sauber. Wir hatten einen Bungalow, der über Klimaanlage und einen Ventilator verfügte. Der Raum bot genügend Platz und war mit Kühlschrank, Kleiderständer, kleinem Regal und Tisch ausgestattet, so dass man auch seine Sachen gut unterbrachte. Wir bekamen jeden Tag 2 Flaschen Wasser und nach 2 Tagen frische Handtücher. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt auf jeden Fall.
Die Betreiberin ist sehr nett und bemüht, auch wenn sie nur wenig englisch spricht. Für die Fahrt zum Charlie Beacht etc. kann man sich bei ihr einen Roller für günstiges Geld ausleihen. Auch die Wäsche kann man bei ihr waschen lassen.
Wir würden wieder dort wohnen.

Sehr schöne und saubere Bungalows. Die Lage war super und das Personal sehr nett.

Heel netjes,schoon , goedkoop

The owners are super welcoming

Very nice place
