Baan Rim Nam

Our 3rd time at Baan Rim Nam - we just love this place. It's now even better after redesign, totally comfortable and perfectly clean. Ian and his staff are so kind and helped us with everything, they also organized a comfortable private transfer to and from their place. Thanks for everything!

We returned to Baan Rim Nam after a few years (obligatory covid) brake . The things that were good before and made us come back are still perfect, quiet location in the "armpit" of the river and the sea, a lovely wooden terrace on the river for drinking morning coffee and reading a book, free canoes for little adventures, well-functioning wifi, really nice staff, who makes you feel like you've come for a visit to someones home and not for paid accommodation, and of course owner Ian, from whom you can always get tips and help, whether you want to go hiking, eat or see the sights. The biggest change is that instead of the former five rooms, there are now four completely renovated rooms. The two-bedroom family room is, simply put, really good. Very clean, really comfortable bed and excellent linens, pillows and blankets, the bathroom is functional, and their shower soap is absolutely wonderful!! It's nice to get fruit from the village and other small snacks for the fridge, and you can prepare your daily coffee in the small but functional kitchen. And if you need your daily dose for Netflix, there is big tv for that. We couldn't have wished for anything more, the week as guests of Ian and the staff went by way too quickly.
We walked to the village in about 20 minutes, there is a nice bakery and enough different places to eat every night of the week. After the meal, it's easy to grab a taxi from the street and return to paradise. Nearby, a few minutes' walk away, there is a good sandy beach and the Palm Beach restaurant, which offers good food and cocktails, is definitely worth checking out.
If you are looking for a place with bars and parties around all the time, this is not the place for you. If, on the other hand, you enjoy a high-class room, a small resort and its relaxed atmosphere, you like to sit with a drink on the terrace and watch life on the river, go to the village to eat and take canoe trips, you couldn't make a better choice:)
Baan Rim Nam does not have a restaurant, but you can have simple breakfast to start your day :)

I've stayed at BRM 3 times, alone, as a married couple and then again with 2 kids in tow.

Each visit has been warm and welcoming and the team went over and above in unexpected ways each time. I hope I have her name right but MiMi absolutely floored us with her warmth and friendliness.

For us the quiet location (but with many options to eat and drink around) and access to the river made for a wonderful week.

Within the rooms they have everything you could ask for, cool air con, comfortable beds and seamless internet access. They helped us make bookings for activities and each time it was a hit.

If I put as much thought into this review as Ian and the team did to make our stay wonderful it would be miles long with accolades but thankfully Google has a word limit😁.

I'm not used to share a location of a gold mine but this resort as well as the owner deserves it. We spent 6 nights with 2 children and we loved it. Everything is perfect, rooms are fully equiped and brand new, you can swim directly in fresh water in the klong or walk 2min to a very nice beach with a good restaurant.
Town is about 10/15min walking and you will see monkeys. If you walk alone someone will pick you up on his motorbike on the road 🙂. You'll have anyway to rent a car or motorbike if you want to go around the island.
Staff is great, if you travel in family from or to Bangkok I suggest you book a van with the resort. It's much more convenient/fast and around the same price than fixed scheduled buses/boats and it'll pick you up directly at your resort at the time you want.
Discover by yourself if you have the chance to have a room available (it's a very small resort) you won't be disapointed. It's not a tourist factory and the price is very low for what you get.
Many other advantages I didn't mention (kayaks for free, cheap drinks etc.)

Another perfect stay. Beautiful setting with lovely rooms and very comfortable beds and pillows. The staff are lovely and as others have said, it feels more like you are visiting someone's home, than simply paying for a room.

Best place to be in Koh Chang, between mangrove and the sea. Rooms are perfectly clean and beautiful. Warm welcome by Ian and his team. Kayak and stand up paddle are lent by the hotel.
king size bed, AC, Cooler and hot water. Evrything was perfect. Possibility to have a breakfast

In love with this place, Baan rim naam is now my favorite place to stay

Previous listing for our guesthouse removed by Google for unexplained reasons.

Wunderschönes Guesthouse in den Mangroven direkt am idyllischen Ufer eines Flusses, der nach wenigen hundert Metern ins Meer mündet. Für mich auch der schönste Strandabschnitt von Koh Chang. Die Gastgeber sind ausgesprochen herzlich und hilfsbereit, es stehen kostenlose Kanus und Standup Boards zur Verfügung, starten kann man direkt von der Terrasse aus. Ein weiteres Highlight sind die moderne, große und sehr geschmackvoll ausgestatteten Zimmer, die man ohne weiteres als luxuriös bezeichnen darf und die auch einem gehobenen Hotel zu Ehren gereichen würden. Netflix inklusive, wo gibt's denn sowas! Also absolute Empfehlung für diese Perle.

I'd like to say this is one of the best accommodation experience in my life. Beautiful river view, chill atmosphere, cozy room, helpful and hosipable host, fair price. I had enjoyable time here, boating or SUP or doing nothing just seeing the river.
非常喜歡，你可以不做任何計畫就來這裡，民宿主人提供很多有用的資訊，洗衣、租車、行程都可以代訂，價格也很公道，可以划船去對岸吃飯，或者往上游逛逛，可以獲得心靈平靜的地方。

舍不得推荐给其他人这个宝藏酒店 房间打扫很干净 老板在新冠病毒疫情期间翻新了房间 服务工作人员态度非常友好 她们会告诉你周围的食宿游玩信息（也有一份14页的pdf电子文件可以扫描二维码领取) 酒店可以免费租借单人桨板和皮筏艇 还有两只狗狗是领养的 有一只友好但是年纪大了 另一只脾气不好 不能招惹它 但是它们的存在让酒店更有趣生动 这是我在泰国感受服务最好的酒店之一（仅次于six senses）即使它没有餐厅（你可以坐船或者划船去河对岸餐厅吃）当然酒店提供简单的早餐 比如麦片、玉米片、酸奶、吐司等 收费也很合理 最让我们欣喜的就是可以当天拿到洗涤的衣服 它们闻起来很香 如果下次我来象岛 我依然会选择住在这里
