Hotels with smoking area in Koh Jum / Koh Pu (Krabi)

"After 3 weeks of traveling around Thailand staying at jungle hill was a great way to relax and enjoy the amazing beaches of Koh Jum. To start prompt pickup off the ferry from Krabi and shuttle down to the resort via long tail. Even on the ride in I was impressed with the long stretch of beach that Jungle Hill was situated on as it was flat, with soft sand and not crowded at all. The bungalows were not luxurious by any means but well put together, sizable with a large bathroom and relatively comfortable bed. The restaurant overlooks the water which is a nice touch especially at night with the sun setting over the phi phi islands. The food is pretty good and decently priced for an island resort, even the local restaurants on the Main Street aren’t that much cheaper. Overall main attraction is the beach which is very nice as stated earlier and great for just relaxing and reading (the resort has a good selection of books to read too. So overall this is not a fancy place but worth the money"

"We were met my Ta who immediately made us feel at home. The villa itself was amazing - four poster bed, outdoor shower, private pool on the beach. I was very impressed with the Eco-friendly commitment by the resort owners and attention to detail. Koh Jum itself is untouched paradise with friendly locals (and not-so-friendly monkeys). I hope it doesn't become over-run like the rest of the neighbouring Islands. Overall a great experience - I would love to return one day!"

"We loved our stay on Koh Jum and we owe it to Golden Pearl. Super friendly staff. Good food at good prices. Amazing view from restaurant with sunsets over Koh Phi Phi islands in the distance. We rented a motorbike and drove around the island, we didn't find any better spot than Golden Pearl (view or beach). The beach was practically empty and despite some rocks, was a great beach for swimming (water was very clear). Only negative was that our toilet facility smelled more than average, but it wasn't an issue as we spent minimal time in the room. After traveling in Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, this is the only place we'd like to come back to. Highly recommend. "

"I loved my time at the Koh Jum Resort. I spent 5 days in the peace there. It is very remote and there really isn't much to do but walk up and down the beach, hike, eat or sleep. It is right on the coast and the hotel Longtail must come to get you from the ferry boat since there is no dock. This can be very scary and a bit dangerous so please caution and carry light luggage. I stayed in a bamboo bungalow with an ocean view (most of the bamboo's do) and it was luxurious but rustic at the same time. The bed was super comfortable (rare in Thailand), the sheets were thick and soft and it had a romantic, but very necessary mosquito net. (Bring lots of insect repellant) The bathroom was great to with a western toilet and a shower but with no hot water. There is a nice fan in the room and electricity (no TV). If you have the money, I would recommend booking a Teak Bungalow as they are gorgeous and the floors are solid and flat unlike the bamboo bungalows which are made out of bamboo rods. I was very relaxed when I left Koh Jum and I look forward to being able to go back again sometime. This would be an amazing honeymoon retreat. Did I mention that the staff is amazing? They are so great, I was really sad to leave them."

"A truly remarkable resort. From our very first sight of the lodge from the long boat coming in we knew this would be a special few days. We were only due to stay here 1 night as we thought it would be just another thai island, how wrong we were. We ended up there for 3 and would have been longer if not for our next hotel been booked. Everything thing from the traditional Thai style lodges to the white sand beaches and friendly staff were perfect. I’d recommend this 100% and stay for as long as possible because once you leave everything else will always be that little bit disappointing. 10/10"

"We made our first trip to Koh Jum Island a couple of weeks ago and were happily surprised to have stumbled on this uncrowded little gem in the Andamman. Koh Jum Ocean Beach Resort was very peaceful and located on a secluded beach, accessible by boat and by car. Of our 2 months holidays, we spent 10 days in this hotel and we really enjoyed peace, quiet, beautiful sunsets and good food. The hotel has a great restaurant with a good chef that prepared us freshly-made and tasty organic meals. We liked the added touch that they even grow their own vegetables in their farm at the hotel. Manager Pat and her assistant Wit are very friendly and accommodating. They were always ready to give us advice and look after our needs so we could fully our enjoy holiday. They did their best to make our stop in the island a memorable one. We highly recommend this hotel."

"Joy Bungalow and koh jum in general represents the relaxed atmosphere as it was 20 years before in thailand. No big resorts, no hordes of charter tourists, just the peacful relaxed way of recharging your batteries far away from the busy life. Even to thai standards, the local people are very kind and helpful. Chill-out bars on the beach. Exactly what we are here for."

"Koh Pu Villa has the most amazing staff we've ever met. They really did everything to make us feel as home. The villa itselve is a really nice and very nice with the private pool. The thing is though that Koh Pu Villa is located far away from everything, which means that you can only get around by scooter. This was a problem for us traveling with a baby. We would recommend this place for couples, as the island is beautiful and very quite, and for 300 baht/day you can rent a scooter and go around the island to the beaches (nearest beach is 2km away) and to the city in Koh Jum. Lovely quite place if you really want to relax "

"...place and most of all people. Kitima, Sebastian and entire team took care of us in the best possible way - going beyond what one could expect. Thank you very much! ...since there are several ways to arrive to Koh Jum depending from where one is coming (several piers), check out the website or contact the team directly for directions. ...the place is lovely with several details and just the right thing for those looking to relax and contemplate. Everything you need can be found. We would come come back anytime. "
