PawPaw Resort

The perfect location, for those who not like to be disturbed while relaxing time (but still not far away from the happenings). Who love to enjoy the sound of nature at the morning or sunset. Who love to walk to the beach. Who love to have a private personal space. Who like to have a pool ( where you can actually swim if you want). Friendliness, helpfulness, feels like you at home in a very first site. The food is amazing, Thai with a little twist, with a style also a lots of love an passion. Try the home made Hibiscus Ice tea. Rent a scooter or a car and discover, go and see the sunrise at the beach or just listen the sound of the sea. Pow Pow resort is perfect for vacation. We enjoyed every single second of our holiday, advise spend some time there we where there for 14days. And just for advise view is because of the elevated land so do not be surprise if you have to walk for it, it is good for fitness. Bring your water bottle, they are care about the world so no plastic (the resort provide bottle also) or you could buy from the *TRASH HERO* Stainless steal bottle. If you are in Thailand for sure you are not there by accident, ask the owners they could tell you what when why trust them they are there for a whole year. Do enjoy

Just moved on from three weeks here and loved it. Exactly what I needed. Small and personal resort with various sized bungalows, lovely pool area, clean bungalows, staff all really helpful and friendly. I know the island very well. This trip was really a catch up with friends & my first stay at PawPaw. Laem Set is on the quieter area of the island with a beautiful beach. Really great for some peaceful relaxation. You’ll need some transport, but locally you’ll still find bars and street food restaurants, including their own onsite. Handy laundry just up from resort too. Huge thanks to Martina & Che. Pawpaw was exactly what I needed and for a great price.

A family of 3 came with a load of bags and a child and we found out that our Apartment wasnt ready and was 200 m up a hill. We received 0 healp from the staff!. 0 pickup or transfers in and out wonderland without extra charges!. Pluss we found our luggage outside at the side walk in front of the 200m uphill bungalow pilled up for us to take them away while we organized a pickup before anyone even checked in. The room was opened and under maintenance still.. Rude owner & rude staff overall. Other Thai owning resorts were waaay more nicer in every possible way... ( cheeper by far - ironically)

I had an incredible stay at this resort. very calm and peaceful. the staff and managers are simply wonderful. I highly recommend this accommodation. especially not expensive. la plage se trouve a 2 min a pied le restaurant de l'hôtel est top. grand parking. L'hotel loue aussi des motos. Thanks you Martina and jus husband. God bless you.

What you pay is what you get, with that said good value for the money. Great stay for 2 nights but I wouldn’t have stayed longar. Really beautiful surroundings and great service. The beds were not that comfortable therefore I wouldn’t have stayed more than a couple of nights. During the nights there was a lot of animak sounds so I woke up all the time, but I had earplugs the second night at wasn’t bothered at all. We booked a bungalow with pool view, would recommend that. Other bungalows are located much higher up on the mountain so I would imagine it’s a lot of steps…I have knee problems so would not be suitable for me. Breakfast was not that good, pretty tasteless so we only ate in the restaurant one morning. Near the hotel you have Natien Beach, which were a small beach and on the beach you have a restautant called “Cool bar” this was truly a hidden gem! Extremely beautiful environment and great Thai food. Don’t forget to visit if you stay at Pawpaw resort. But I would recommend for a couple of nights if you want a more quiet and peaceful stay.

The room was so smelly that we didn’t want to check in… unfortunately the host refused to refund or to change the room.

Pros: Easy and friendly communication with the female owner through who we made the booking, spacious and clean bungalow, pieceful quiet nights, nice surrounding, beautiful garden as well as the proximity to Lamai and it's restaurants. Cons: Unpleasant experience with male business partner, as we felt to communicate with an inhospitable, unfriendly and antagonistic host who seemed to be most of the time quite self centered, stressed, arrogant and hostile. According to other reviews we have read, that seems to be not only our experience.

Very peacefull place and staff was very friendly and helpfull
