While the location of Cookies Bungalows is
ideal (close to Thong Sala), I found the atmosphere less than
friendly. Although a sigh reads "we are family," the older lady that
sits in the restaurant never smiled once during our two weeks stay.
It felt like we were an imposition, not family, if we wanted to
order something at the restaurant. The prices were a bit high for
the quality and quantity of food. We ended up eating at the night
market (30Baht for make-your-own-pad-thai). That said, the
restaurant area is a nice place to relax with other travellers and
has a great view over water and we weren't forced to buy anything.
We stayed in two different bungalows during the two weeks and like a previous reviewer mentioned, we found the bungalows to have poor plumbing and felt a touch run down. The bungalows are small, but have a nice deck area (some have hammocks and a view of water). We tried to negotiate a better rate since we were staying for a longer time, but the best we could do was 400Baht a night. From speaking with other travellers, I think one could find similar bungalows but with a better view, closer to the water, and/or better atmosphere. So, depending on what you are looking for, Cookies might suite your needs. |

For the serious kiteboarder this is a dream.
The days we were there there was a steady wind most of the day and
the angle of the beach means you can scream in and out to your
heart’s content. Sailboards, hobie cats and jet skies are other fun
options. The bungalows themselves are cheap and cheerful and lack
any frills – or indeed anything that resembles proper plumbing in
some instances (our sink had no waste pipe and just splashed onto
the floor). The walls are also paper-thin (just a rattan screen
really) – so if you are a light sleeper and there is a heavy snorer
(sorry!) or amorous couple nearby then prepare for the worst with
some earplugs. The bar and restaurant is informal but has a great
view and the food tastes better than the kitchen looks (and smells).
The older of the two women running the bar is a bit scary (make sure
you take off your shoes), but with a bit of effort you might coax a
smile from her eventually. For free wi-fi cross the road and climb
up to the Top Rock bar. Great sunset cocktail location.

I came here hoping for a place to relax, sleep
in a beach front bungalow and just enjoy myself and that's what I
found. If you don't feel like ever leaving, they will cook you
anything you want for more than reasonable prices. The family that
owns and runs this are very understanding caring people and friendly
while not invading on your privacy. I only stayed for 5 days, but
the person next to me was there for 3 months. Cool showers were more
than welcome during 90 degree days. Beds with mosquito nets as well.
I can't wait to go back there again someday.
