Myself and my boyfriend stayed here for a couple of nights as part of a trip around Thailand. We were on a bit of a budget so decided to save a bit of money in Samui and stay in a cheaper guesthouse rather than a larger hotel. We were pleasantly surprised! The Guesthouse is lovely, very clean and a really... More

Our double room was also great, super silent ac, hot water and no noise from outside to be heard as I slept like a baby the... More

Generally speaking this guesthouse would be only average if it were not for the exceptional hospitality of Penzy and Dave, both of whom are very knowlegable about the area and speak good english. My brother and I stayed here twice during the NYE 2011/2012 period because we intended to boat over to Koh Pha Ngan to check out the countdown... More

This was my second time to Koh Samui and I booked into Penzy after all the positive review. Although I had to cut short my trip due to personal reason, both Penzy and her husband David were superb hosts who went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. The place itself was basic but it's an excellent value... More

Have stayed a couple of nights at Penzy's and really enjoyed it. The rooms are clean and quite spacious. Aircon and Wifi are working well. There is a big choice of free dvds you can rent. Penzy and her husband are really friendly and helpful!! Whatever you need help with they will try to assist you. Very, very kind people. More

There is a wardrobe, plenty of drawers and a fridge. (Free water everyday!) The bathrooms are massive and had a good quality shower. Our rooms had balconies which was useful... More

Really reasonable room rates (1000 baht for double). Spacious room, clean and had tv with unlimited free DVD rental in the lobby. Penzy can help organise trips/boats and is very approachable. Location is excellent - just off the main street in south chewing which is quieter than the north but still lots going on and only 15 minutes walk to... More
