The most chill place you can imagine with an incredible host that runs the place and the bar in a perfect manner. Do not challenge him at the pool table ;-). Will come back.

“Incredible”
The Shadow hostel and our honorable host made our stay in Koh Phayam such a wonderful experience. The most important part beside our friendly host was the marvelous nature of the island. It was breathtaking.

The Shadow was a gorgeous accommodation to stay in. The rooms were very comfortable and as an added bonus each had your very own hammock outside. It was the best place to sit back and relax and have some drinks at the bar too. The host, Paul, was really friendly and attentive. He made you feel very comfortable in the Shadow. Really close to some really nice restaurants and the beach.

Probably one of the best places I have stayed in Thailand. Por who owns The Shadow really made our stay amazing! Lovely chilled friendly vibe. Super quiet and waking up to some jungle like sounds was wonderful. So comfy and best sleep I've had in Thailand!! Near the best beach!! Phayam is magical. I would stay here again and again and again! Thank you Por!!

“Relaxing, Special, Felt like home”
The Host is incredibly welcoming and so forthcoming. He immediately made us feel at home. Whenever we had a question or needed something he would not only give great advice but would go out of his way in order to help. The rooms are small but cozy and throughout the day one can hang out on the terrace with some of the other guests. There is a beautiful beach nearby. We are so happy that we found this place and seriously recommend coming here!

Lovely bungalows in the jungle, you can hear all the jungle sounds at night which felt pretty magical. Super clean and cosy. Paul (owner) is an absolute gem, very kind and helpful. Made my stay even better! Definitely would return and recommend :-)
