Our journey to Koh Jum was a bit of a rocky one.

We left Railey to Koh Jum in low season. Due to our own lack of organisation we missed the boat from Railey straight to Koh Jum, very early in the morning, bookable from most hotels. DO THIS! We ended up long tailing back to Ao Nang, taxi to the port, and local ferry from there. What an adventure. But I guess that is Thailand for you - Lovely people along the way - Can I just note how lovely the Thai people are.

Koh Jum itself is beautiful. True island feel, very laid back.

Koh Jum Resort is accessible via a dirt road off the main road, bit touch and go after the rain on a scooter. Take some decent closed shoes which you don't mind getting muddy if you do this.

The Resort itself did not disappoint. Very friendly staff, quaint accommodation on the edge of a hill with the most fantastic views over the sea.

We stayed in one of the Seaview Teak Wood houses, I would pay a bit more to stay in a different room type with air con and a bit of a better bathroom - to be honest this is the only thing that brought down the rating. A fan in the bathroom, some better ventilation would not go a miss! Also was quite loud at night in this room type due to animals, very thin walls - literally bamboo, I think we heard alot of cat mating ha ha. But our view was truly insane, which is why I booked that room type. So depends what you prioritize.

Breakfast pretty basic, but OMG the cocktails amazing, try the Pino colada, also the dinner menu - get the Massaman Curry You will not regret!!! Drool worthy. Best one we had in Thailand.

Beach here is decent for swimming and lounging, but not as clear as other parts in Koh Jum. For swimming head to FU Bar - the beach in front of this is to die for. Also the Southern tip, some great hidden beaches.

Koh Jum Resort also good for families, there were a few there when we stayed. I would be happy to stay here with children as it felt very safe.

Do note Koh Jum really does shut down in low season. We will be back bit in should or high season. And will be staying here again 100% as the staff and the atmosphere made our trip to Koh Jum :) Thank you for the lovely visit!!

I'm travelling along in the low season, girl.
1. I was checked the drop off service fee to the counter 3 times, they told me different price each time, 1st time is 2800B to Koh Lanta(Pier), 2nd time is 3000B to Koh Lanta(Send me to my hotel, they checked address then told the driver), 3rd time I paid 3000B to the resort then the private taxi driver ask me to pay more because is far, that guy asked me to pay 500B to him.
2. When I'm checking out at the counter, I forget some stuff in the room, when I back to the room, I found the room checker take the tips away, that's for the cleaner, 2 really nice staff.
3. The restaurant in Koh Jum Resort is really expensive, I‘ve paid 2 times the usual price for each meal and snacks
4. Koh Jum Resort is not far from the main street but is HARD TO WALKING & BIKING, is located in the north of the island, foot of the mountain, the road looks like a swamp, the motorbike is ok but there are no lights in the evening, please take care.
5. About that private taxi driver, a man who wore an ivory & gold rings on his left hand, always asked me to buy tobacco from him, he said there's no tobacco for sale on Koh Jum, but it's not true. he picked up me from Krabi Airport to Koh Jum, and dropped me off to Koh Lanta, round trips same person.

Room tip: good view, many insects, quite

Just had 3 days at Koh Jum resort and could not fault a thing. Room was a superior villa with air con. Balcony overlooked the sea and was just fantastic. Totally relaxing stay and all the staff are very helpful and very nice. Beach is amazing and the restaurant serve fantastic food. Prawn crackers a particular highlight. Free kayaks to use and the pool is just right.
It does feel like a desert island and there isn’t much in the way of exploring to be done, but just relax and enjoy the quiet.
They do a couple of trips to climb the mountain and visit some islands, but we were just fine relaxing and enjoying some down time.
Was a bit worried about getting there, but so simple. Taxi to the pier, longboat across and then a call to the resort for pick up. Easy.
Will definitely return. Many thanks for a wonderful stay.

They have updated the place and now have real good new aircons, at least at the superior room we stayed in. We loved everything in our room 617. Nice quite fridge which is filled as a minibar, good tv with 2 english moviechannels. Bed is good for thai standards with 3 pillows. Hot shower and spacious room and fantastic view from your balcony. You can see the beach from your bed! Food was good served at the restaurant, bar and at night at the beach. True, there is not much to day on the island but renting a scooter is worth it for one day and you could climb the mountain if your up to it. Overall i would definitely recommend this place to relax and watch the beautiful sunset every night.
