Amazing place

My stay at Joy Bungalow has been absolutely amazing and wonderful. The beach is private and quiet, the staff is lovely, the food is great, and the room was nice and clean. I give my most heartfelt recommendations to this unspoiled paradise in Koh Jum.

Paradise on Koh Jum!

This was iyr fifth stay at Joy Bungalows since 2012 and we love it! The hospitality of the staff, the bungalow (VIP by the beach), the food at the restaurant, the almost empty 2-km beach beach... This is where we go for a relaxing time! This is our paradise!

A resort on paradise island

Koh Jum seems to be under the radar for most folks traveling koh Lanta. Wich is good cause it has stayed a very quiet place. A little tropical paradise. We stayed 3 nights on Joy Bungalows. The cottage was likely their cheapest, basicly a bed with mosqito net. No ac/fan. Still, great value for the money. You sleep basicly in a jungle /forest or by the sea depending wich cottage you get. The sounds are inredible at night time. The dogs and chicken will likely wake you up early. Joy has good restaurant, nice staff, many services availevable trough request, motorbike rental etc. It has all you will need to spend incredible time on their great beach or to use it as a base camp when touring the small island during the day.

Der perfekte Ort fĂŒr Ruhe und Erholung

Das Joy Bungalow kann man nur lieben. Ggfs ist man am Anfang aber etwas ĂŒberrascht. So viel ist auf der Insel nicht los und zu Beginn kann man denken, dass es auf Koh Jum nicht schön ist. Aber dann kommt man an den Strand, sieht, dass man ihn fast fĂŒr sich alleine hat und genießt die Ruhe und Erholung. Die Bungalows sind nett eingerichtet, die Betten sehr bequem. TatsĂ€chlich ist man zu Beginn ggfs. etwas ĂŒberrascht, wenn man Angst vor Moskitos hat und keine schließenden Fenster an den Zimmer angebracht sind. Aber es hat sich gezeigt, dass wenige Moskitos aktiv sind und das Netz ĂŒber dem Bett keinem Moskito eine Chance gibt zu stechen. Das Essen ist lecker, der Service sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Immer ein Besuch wert

Starker Termitenbefall und dreckiges Bett

Die Anlage ist an einem ruhigen Strand gelegen und das Personal ist freundlich. Leider sind die Bungalows stark in die Jahre gekommen. Wir hatten das Pech in ein Bungalow mit starkem Termitenbefall zu kommen. Die komplette Innenfront des Bungalows war von Termiten befallen und die Termieten sind ĂŒberall gekrbbelt und gefolgen, sodass wir leider nicht einmal die Terasse nutzen konnten. Das Bett war zu Beginn sehr dreckig, ist dann nach unserer Beschwerde jedoch nochmal gesĂ€ubert worden. Die Termiten haben sie mit einem Giftspray besprĂŒht dass hat aber eher unsere Atemwege gereizt als dass es die Termieten vertrieben hĂ€tte. Besonders geĂ€rgert hat uns, dass ein anderes Bungalow noch frei gewesen wĂ€re wir aber nur gegen eine deutliche Preiserhöhung dort hĂ€tten schlafen dĂŒrfen. Deshalb haben wir das Hotel vorzeitig verlassen und sind in eine traumhafte Anlage weiter nördlich gezogen :) Im nachhinein haben wir erfahren dass es wohl ca. 8 stark veraltete Bungalows gibt ( davon haben wir wohl eines erwischt) aber es gibt auch ein paar bessere neuere. Allgemein ist die Anlage jedoch fĂŒr die Leistungen ( kein Strom, kein Warmwasser, kein Ventilator) im VerhĂ€ltnis zu anderen UnterkĂŒnften auf der Insel ĂŒberteuert. Wir waren schon oft in Asien mit dem Backpack unterwegs aber sowas haben wir noch nicht erlebt...

Avkoppling

HĂ€rlig transfer till ön med fĂ€rja o longboat med hotellpersonal som hĂ€mtade oss direkt frĂ„n fĂ€rjan. Gick bra trots tunga resvĂ€skor. Bra personal. Lite trĂ„kig meny pĂ„ restaurangen men finns fler lĂ€ngs stranden. Mysig bungalow med utedusch o hĂ€ngmatta pĂ„ altan. Stort minus med alla lösa skĂ€llande hundar bĂ„de natt och dag. OtĂ€ckt om man Ă€r hundrĂ€dd. Billig mat och dryck - allt sattes upp pĂ„ rummet o betalades vid hemresa. Becksvart vid 21:30 dĂ„ allt slĂ€cktes ner och man fick oljelampa för att hitta hem. Mysigt Ă€ndĂ„. Ingen stĂ€dning och samma handdukar i fyra dagar. Moppe kunde hyras pĂ„ plats - dock inga hjĂ€lmar. Underbart vatten men smutsig strand. Mycket lugnt om man behöver varva ner frĂ„n vardagen hemma. Fanns inga aktiviteter alls förutom hyra moppe dĂ„. Ön Ă„ker du runt pĂ„ nĂ„gra timmar. Endast 2,9 km lĂ„ng och ca 1-2 km bred. Vi trodde först det var en nudiststrand vid hotellet dĂ„ mĂ„nga badade nakna men det var det tydligen inte. Rekommenderar starkt joy bungalow för hotels gĂ€ster!

Fantastiskt boende med familjÀr stÀmning.

Husen Àr generellt enkla och nÀra naturen men mycket gemytligt och familjÀrt med mÄnga stamgÀster. Nu (januari 2017) har (de flesta?) bungalowsen fÄtt el med belysning och flÀkt. Maten Àr suverÀn. Folk vallfÀrdar frÄn de nÀrliggande resorterna. AktivitetsnivÄn Àr lÄg och avslappnad. Det perfekta stÀllet för avkoppling, men vill man ha hög standard, waterjet, vattenskidÄkning och annat trams ska man söka sig till nÄgot annat stÀlle

Best hotel in koh jum!

The island is rather quiet..so dont expect anything else. Awesome resort with lovely people running it. Definitely the best beach area as well as a lot of the other resorts have rocky beaches, especially at low tide. Beautiful sunsets at the beach. Great food in the restaurant and good chilled old school rock music mostly played :)

Saubere und gemĂŒtliche Bungalows im Thai-Stil (Deluxe Beach Front) mit halb-offenem Bad und Terrasse mit Sitzgelegenheit und HĂ€ngematte. Nichts auszusetzen. Super Strand! Das Personal ist zuvorkommen und freundlich. Die Bungalows haben keinen Strom, dafĂŒr bekommt man abends aber eine Lampe. Hier empfiehlt es sich noch zusĂ€tzlich eine Taschenlampe mitzunehmen.

Schöne Lage und Strand

Wir hatten einen "De-Lux Bungalow" mit Meerblick. Die Anlage liegt in einem Palmenhain, Strand wunderbar. Die Sauberkeit jedoch eine Katastrophe.Reinigung erfolgt nur beim Ein- und Auscheck, eine grĂŒndliche Reinigung vermutlich nur einmal im Jahr. Das Personal ist zwar sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, das Restaurant lecker - aber ich werde dort trotzdem nicht mehr hinfahren.Außerdem ist Koh Jum gerade am Wendepunkt, liegt ja auch auf der "Traveller-Autobahn" zwischen Krabi und Koh Lanta, es gibt sogar Leute die mit Rollkoffer anreisen (sehr "praktisch" beim Umstieg von der FĂ€hre auf das Longtailboot und durch den Sandstrand!!!).
