Liked: We were so looking forward to our stay and Bananas and after returning home, we wish we were still there and wish we had stayed longer as part of our three week Thailand trip. We are still thinking about it now. The ambience struck us straight away with backpackers of all ages enjoying a few beers in the communal area. Bananas is truly exceptional with great ambience, great facilities and fantastic, enthusiastic staff, especially Ollie who is just a star.
Disliked: There cannot surely be anything to dislike.

Liked: Man this place is paradise. I booked for four nights but immediately extended to eight because the location is so serene and beautiful. On-site they offer everything that you need, so I only left the resort three times, choosing instead to spend my days gazing out to the ocean from my hammock. I stand by my decision.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: The Bananas is in a beautiful location at Ta Lane, away from the main tourist area of Ao Nang and just a little closer to the 'real' Thailand. There is still plenty to do, and the main towns are only a short bus, scooter or taxi ride away. The beautiful islands of Koh Yao Noi and Koh Yao Yoi are only a ferry ride away.The atmosphere at the hostel is excellent, and the communal dinner (always excellent) provides a great opportunity for people to get to know each other. The honour system for food and drink only adds to this, and the prices are beyond reasonable.Facilities are very good (power showers , wifi, mosquito nets etc.) and kept very clean. Ollie and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

Liked: This place was the perfect escape from busy Singapore. I loved the serenity that the location provided, and the ambiance created by Olli at the hostel was wonderful. Daily communal dinner provided opportunities for strangers to bond over food, and make plans together for the next day. Needless to say, the food was excellent, and I miss it! Olli and his staff were helpful and friendly, they make an effort to know all the guests and learn more about them. They would also recommend activities based on your needs or desires. It felt like a home away from home, and I found much-needed soulful rest here.To Olli and staff, thank you so much for the memorable stay! I love The Bananas! :]]

Liked: We LOVED staying at the bungalows! Firstly the bungalows are located 30km from Krabi town so well off the tourist track we loved visiting the local villages and walking round their markets experiencing something that not every tourist gets to see. We stayed in a bamboo bungalow with private bathroom which was lovely. During the days we rented to the moped visited krabi town, travelled up the north to national parks and caves which again are so secluded you feel like you have experience something really special! Ollie also organises excursions we did the day trip round the islands and the kayaking. There is a fridge stocked with food and drink plus the kitchen is open from 7-3 to order food and you just write everything in the honesty book. Dinner is served at 7:00 and is communal we met so many lovely people evenings were spent chatting, playing cards sharing stories, a great place attracts great people! It was very sad to leave but we will defiantly be planing a return visit , Ollie is a great host I could listen to his stories all night and also if you go and you plan on buying souvenirs then please please buy the jewellery that is made by the gardener he is such a lovely guy and it's great to see who your money goes too! Thank you Ollie and everyone who made our holiday such a memorable and fantastic experience!!!!!!!
