Glyn is a wonderful host who welcomed me warmly and always made himself available for queries. The location is perfect, close to the beach and many nice restaurants. I'm sad that I didn't get chance to sample Glyn's english breakfasts, as they smelled amazing. The bungalows are set in beautiful gardens, very tastefully decorated with a comfortable bed and nice shower. Great (and rare!) to have a kettle and microwave in a room in Thailand. I highly recommend this place. Thanks for a lovely stay and for helping me with my transport issues despite being very busy!

The WiFi wasn't quite good enough for work but I would recommend going across the road to the Glass House co working cafe, which is what I did. It wasn't a big issue but worth noting if you need strong WiFi.

Me and my brother both rented a bungalow at The Travelers Friend and had a great stay.Very chill place with everything you need for both a long or short stay. Stayed at Glyns for a month and loved it. Considering you get air con, fan, micro, kettle, fridge , hair drier and toiletries in a comfy single standing fairly modern bungalow it's excellent value for money. Glyns place has everything on hand being just off the main street. Loads of restaurants and small fruit vendors etc.plus Minimart and laundry just next door. I even got great tatoo just over the road! With just a 5 min walk to the fantastic Long beach what more can you want! Well Glyn the owner gives you more. What a fabulous friendly and helpfull guy.He even let me leave some extra baggage with him for 2 weeks while i bombed off to visit som other islands. A really super chill interesting guy who knows alot about the wildlife and fauna of the island, does amazing breakfasts, great music and free pool table in his bar. I would absolutely recommend The Travelers friend

THE breakfast is sooo good I nearly one starred my trip so I have a chance if booking in. November. The main man knows he way round a frying pan and kettle I tell you that for nothing, but that's about it! Actually absolute lovely bloke, good local knowledge, excellent map drawing skills. 9 mins to Oasis beach.... BAREFOOT! Scooters delivered to accommodation. Great rooms, clean, roomy, hot water clean bathrooms... You could live in it!

The fact that a German told me, a South East London Lemon Squeezer, about this gaff. He booked 8 days there because he loves English Breakfasts and that is a thing in Germany. He said 'English breakfasts are the largest exports from England since bombs in 1944 hahahaha. Friend for life right there

Great location near Long Beach, just a 10 minute walk. Close to quite a few restaurants and bars. Clean bungalows. The owner, Glyn, was really nice to talk to. He also was helpful in getting me a soft pillow (I'm very picky with my bedding), when the pillow was too hard the first night. After that, I slept well the remaining nights.

Wi-Fi did not function in the bungalow I had, so I had to use the data on my phone and hotspot for my laptop, but not a major issue on my end. That could be different if your bungalow is closer to the restaurant.

Nice and quiet area. Close to the sea and beach restaurants. Also many restaurants in the immediate area. At the slightest problem, Mr. Glyn fixed this.

Glen was the epitome of service with a smile- always happy to help and even gave us a lift to the ferry port when our transport failed to arrive. The accommodation itself was clean and comfortable, couldn’t ask for much more for the money. Excellent location, a few minutes walk to the beach, restaurants, shops, atm’s and a gym

Small bungalow resort close to all the shops and places at Long Beach. Location is great and it's very good value for money.

The bathroom tubes don't work properly and we had some problems with the toilet. The bed could use a new mattress since it was not very comfortable.

Glen was so friendly and welcoming! The room had everything you needed for a comfortable stay, and was in a gorgeous flower garden, just off behind the on-site restaurant and bar with games and pool table. The location is also perfect close to the beach and shops.
