When you travel to a very small island and stay at a fighters' camp, you need to know what you're getting into. The place was actually much nicer than I expected. Everyone is very friendly though a lot of them have been there for weeks or months and it'll take a couple of days to break into the circle (if... More

If you want to brush up on your Muay Thai skills for a few weeks, this is the perfect place to crash. You don't have to worry about stinking up the towels because they already smell like a fighter's jock strap. Need some calf exercises? Rent a kick-start motorbike, though all that hard work may never pay off because the... More

I'd been travelling around central Thailand in October 2009 and decided a month later to head down south to some the islands my friend recommended and try out a little Muay Thai training. One of the islands I heard about specifically was an untouched paradise called Koh Yao Noi and when a little google search unexpectedly yielded a training camp... More

There was no in-room safe, no fan, TV with no satellite. There’s a really big different from their hotel website. The hotel had many problems of the management. There were 3 separated managements. Muay Thai Boxing managed by a western couple. The swimming pool and the accommodation managed by Lu and her husband. The restaurant managed by Thai people. The... More

This hotel was a lucky find, literally of a advert on a map that we picked up last year. The hotel is run (very well) by Dave, Lou, with support from Harry, Lisa & Lisa's husband who is the Mui thai boxing trainer (sure that,s spelt wrong!!) We had the family room which is 2 double bedrooms with aircon a... More

My family arrived in Koh Yao at the pier on April 16. We had no reservations, but told the taxi driver we had a booking. We arrived at the Lam Sai Village Hotel and Lisa (English) made us feel welcome. She showed us a room with one large bed and a fan because we were traveling with two small children... More
