It was an amazing stay for five nights. Our host P made us so welcome and our room and terrace was perfect. P and his lovely Mum cooked us the best food I’ve had in my five weeks in Thailand. He even washed our laundry for us. We were able to use the bikes free of charge to ride around the island. We came here to get away from it all for a few days and got exactly what we needed! I can’t recommend this place enough and will most definitely be back on our next visit. Thanks P!

Super nice host. The setting was really peaceful and dinner was amazing! It was a bit far off from the Mon village, but for a quiet getaway (like the name suggests) it's almost perfect. Thanks for everything.

This a one of my favourite place in Thailand now, it’s a quiet family owned accommodation, Panit is an amazing host and I had a great stay. I was lucky to come when there was a lot of fireflies at night. The food is amazing !

“Serene quietness”

Nature! The hammock as well

Panit (the host) was exceptional. He could not have been more helpful. Good to chat to and a really good cook. I only went to Ko Kret for the brewery, but I want to go back just for the hospitality.

A peaceful, relaxing place. A very friendly host. Delicious home cooking. Although close to Bangkok, if you want to get away from the busy city for a bit, this is an excellent place.

“Extraordinary host, comfortable home stay”

Island is calm, very walkabale. The owner, Panit is an extraordinary host. Serves great home cooked dinners and very attentive to needs. Had great conversations with him.

“It was relaxing”

Living in the nature

We had such a wonderful stay at Cast Away. The hosts welcomed us very warmly into their space and tried to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The meals were large and delicious, and they made sure to ask about any foods we couldn’t eat. This will be my go to spot on Koh Kret!

“What a find!”

This place is out this world, and perfect for someone who doesn't require modern luxuries but instead wants to connect with the nature and themselves. The homecooked food was maybe the best during my 3 month trip in Thailand, I was absolutely blown away by both the quality and the quantity. Hammocks for relaxing in the common outside area. Cute details scattered everywhere. Bikes available for exploring this amazing island (highly recommended!). Wonderful hospitality with the friendliest people, I will miss this place for sure.

Liked absolutely everything about this little gem 💎 outside of Bangkok CBD. The island itself is so peaceful during the week and the host is making sure you got everything you need for your stay. Food offered was delicious and plentiful. Basic bamboo bungalows still have that old Thai style which I absolutely adore. You got bicycles to borrow so you can easy ride around Koh Kret. Definitely will recommend this place for a Bangkok escape or just for your whole stay in Bangkok. It's about 45min drive to CBD from the pier and the lovely host with great English will help you to get across the river with the boat. Will be back 🫶

“Magical fireflies”

wonderful views

“Very agreeable stay”

The location is very pretty and calm, one can see a lot of fireflies in the fields from the terrace of the room. The host is very kind and hospitable. We asked for vegan food, and we were constantly impressed by what we had.

“Will definitely return”

The host family, the cooking, the surroundings, the other guests.

“Amazing getaway in nature”

If you’re looking for a place to escape busy bangkok for a few days, this homestay is just perfect. The hospitality of the host and his family is outstanding, very caring and thoughtful. All meals were delicious and I didn’t miss anything. I also got a bike to explore the island, which is the perfect activity to relax. I’d definitely come back again :)

Super friendly family that made my stay awesome because they made me feel like part of their family. Castaway was in a perfect location and if you want to feel traditional Thai village and turn back the time to 40 or 50 years you should come to Castaway Koh Khret. Thanks Pantip and family, see you again ❤️❤️❤️
