There are not many varieties of breakfast, but the quality is good. Hotel service is very good. Suitable for people who like quiet people, Koh Phangan is really quiet, and there are very few people in China. Anantara always pays attention to eating, must go to the restaurant on the second floor of the hall, their home ingredients are really very good, and the price is reasonable. It is worth living. Alternatively, the hotel has free kayaking to play. Oh, yes, it may be that the ecological environment in Koh Phangan is so good that there are often lizards.

My husband and I had only booked for 1 night originally but after arriving and being greeted so warmly by Taylor, seeing the beautiful room and swimming in the incredible sea right off the hotel, we extended for 5 days. At the end we still didn’t want to leave. We found this to be the perfect place to relax _ by day we swam, took the kayak to a nearby beach, ate great pizza at the hotel, enjoyed breakfasts cooked to order at the hotel, had beers at sunset and walked to the town in 5 minutes for amazing and inexpensive massages. Regarding restaurants in town, we really enjoyed the French Thai place (Luca?) and the place where there is a sole woman chef. The hotel is owned by an interior decorator and the rooms are decorated with great attention to detail. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. The hotel is small and quiet -only the sounds of the ocean at night. It’s wonderful to hear the rain on the roof as well. We enjoyed our days and nights so much we didn’t even rent a scooter to explore the east side of the island. We coupled our stay here with a hotel near the full moon party beach and I feel the juxtaposition of the 2 experiences was perfect. We are already discussing when we can return to Sand in My Shoes. It’s a must_ whether you are solo, a couple or a family with 3 kids. Kudos to Taylor and the owner- well done! Also, we are beach snobs and this was hands down one of the most spectacular beaches we have ever been to _ the sand, the water, the waves. Perfection.

The room is clean and nicely decorated in a nature theme, especially the bathroom with the stone floor and walls. The beach area of the hotel is a little bit small compared to the neighboring hotels but still good. But what convinced me most of all is the service. The hotel staff is super nice and very helpful with everything you need. The hotel area is pretty big so there is a cart service that can pick you up at your hotel room and drive you out to the entrance (or beach, pool, …). Very convenient because the street with all the restaurants is right outside the entrance (and a 7-eleven right across the entrance). So all in all a very pleasant experience and i would definitely stay there again.

The hotel is located a little far from civilization. You need to be prepared for this. The nearest 7 eleven is a 20 minute walk. This was not a problem for us. We stayed for 2 days and spent them entirely at the hotel. I didn't want to go out anywhere. At first glance, everything seems a little outdated, but the area has such a cool, relaxing atmosphere that after 5 minutes you forget about it. We lived in a wonderful Villa with a pool and sunset views right from the balcony. Breakfast and dinner were included. The food was divine. The staff is very attentive. Everyone knows what villa you live in, what kind of coffee you like, etc. It was very surprising. The hotel has a beautiful beach - although in the afternoon, because... in the first half, due to the tide, the beach goes under water. But in the afternoon it opens and it’s very cool to walk there. The places are very picturesque.

Wir sind nun schon zum zweiten Mal in den Phangan Pavillons, diesmal für 10 Tage lang, zu Gast. Am Pier wurden wir freudig von Mike, dem Besitzer empfangen und zur Anlage gefahren. Wir kamen im Lotus Upper unter. Da wir vor 4 Jahren schon einmal dasselbe Zimmer beziehen durften, fällt ein Vergleich positiv aus. Zu unserer Freude befindet sich das Apartment in einem hervorragenden Zustand, so dass wir uns wieder sofort wohl fühlen konnten. Das Zimmer bietet genügend Platz für 2 Personen. Vom Balkon aus hat man eine atemberaubende Sicht auf den wunderschönen tropischen Wald und das Meer. Die Einbauküche bietet lediglich eine Mikrowelle und ein Kühlschrank, sowie ein Toaster und Wasserkocher. Für ein Frühstück auf dem Balkon reicht die Einrichtung allemal. Es gibt täglich eine hervorragende Zimmerreinigung, ebenfalls wird täglich die Minibar nach Benutzung aufgefüllt. Die gesamte Anlage st in einem tadellosen Zustand, dank der guten Pflege von Sinbad und ihrem Team. Somit kann man sich als Gast getrost in dieser Anlage wohlfühlen und entspannen. Wir konnten zudem den sehr netten Besitzer Mike kennen lernen, der sich während unseres Aufenthalts ebenfalls in der Anlage aufhielt. Danke für den Tip, einmal bei „Fuji“ reinzuschauen. Wir waren insgesamt vier mal zu Gast dort. Die sehr schön bepflanzte Anlage liegt auf einem Hügel über dem Dorf Tong Nai Pan Noi gelegen. Es führen Treppenstufen hinunter ins Dorf,wir empfanden sie als praktisch, da man schnell und unkompliziert mitten im Dorf ankommt. Nach ein paar Aufstiegen bemerkt man die steigende Kondition und der Aufstieg fällt weniger schwer. Alternativ kann man die Straße nutzen, was viel länger, nicht weniger steil und je nachdem, leider verkehrsbedingt bei Dunkelheit gefährlicher sein kann. Wir haben uns hier erneut sehr gut erholen können und kommen gerne wieder 😃!

Overall the hotel was nice but in several point not what we expected: We booked a „villa with sea view“. There was no sea view at the villa that was assigned to us. You couldn’t see the sea neither from within the villa nor from the pool nor from the sun beds nor from the outside bath tub. The only way to see a glimpse of the sea was to stand up on a certain spot on the terrace. That’s not what we expected from a room advertised as „with sea view“ and the (trip.com) booking page also suggested otherwise. When we complained, we got assigned another villa where we could see the sea partly. Thank you for that. However, the manager told us that the photos from the booking page were in fact another villa. But it's not my responsibility to make sure that the photos and pictures provided on booking pages are correct. The hotel has to take care of that! This holds also true for the next issue: The gym was closed due to renovation. In the booking process, they advertised a huge fitness center with lots of machines. Now it’s shut down and we did not get any information about this. The „mini gym“, which does not even have at least one multi exercise machine, is nothing but a bad joke and no replacement at all for a proper gym! Again the staff told us they would inform about this on their website. When I checked that, I still found the photos of the large gym on their own website. It was just called ”mini gym”. But how am I supposed to know what they mean by that and that the provided photos are no longer correct??

I love this hotel. We always stop there. Cool pool, fine white sand beach. If you don't live in a full moon, then the music isn't really loud. There are a lot of noisy young people on weekends, but this is the specificity of this place and the beach. I love this hotel. We always stop there. Cool swimming pool, beach with fine white sand.

We stayed beginning of August in a Garden room with terrace. Apart from the Full Moon Party days, it is a very friendly and relaxed hotel with a touch of simple class. Chilled out beach setting with sunbeds, chairs and beanbags. Not too far from Haad Rin but also far enough... Rooms are a good size, clean, bright, cool and with a good selection of bathroom items, fresh water and a stocked minibar (not too expensive). The restaurant is good with a lot of choice and the best breakfast we've had in Thailand so far. We had a BBQ night and a film night while we were there - nice bonuses.
