About this stay

A private ground-floor room with your own little corner of nature right outside the door. The covered terrace is wrapped in tapestries, plants, and jungle-garden views: a woven hammock, Thai triangle cushions, an outdoor kitchen, a firepit for the evenings. Inside, fast Wi-Fi and a smart TV with Netflix make it an easy base for slow mornings and the occasional work day. The sign next to the door just says "This must be the place." Sleeps two. Quiet enough to hear only the jungle, five minutes from Tanote Bay beach.

Words fall short to describe how beautiful Kevin's house is. Their garden has a beautiful ecosystem of plants and animals. This place felt like 'nature's little paradise'. Kevin's place is a true gem!

This is probably the most unique accommodation on the island. It's only a 5-minute walk to the beach, yet the house feels completely secluded. Clean and comfortable. I would definitely love to stay here again.

Cozy, clean and just like in the pictures. A good place to slow down indeed! Kevin had lots of tips for us and was great with communication. Highly recommend.

Where you'll stay

Tanote Bay, east side of Koh Tao

Five minutes' walk down the hill to the beach, restaurants, and dive shops. Quiet, jungle-wrapped, and far from the Sairee party crowd. Right next to KD Genetics — small steep road up to the house with a sign at the entrance.
