Roo Poo Guest House

Roo Poo Guest House brings a laid-back island vibe to Ko Kho Khao, where the pace slows down and the tourist crowds thin out. This guest house sits in what recent visitors rate as a top location (8.4/10), giving you easy access to the island’s quieter beaches and local scene without the hustle of Thailand’s more developed destinations.

Your accommodation choice comes down to fan-cooled or air-conditioned Standard Double Rooms, both sleeping two people. The property stands out with its garden views and free on-site parking – practical perks that matter when you’re exploring by scooter or car. Recent guests consistently praise the cleanliness (8/10), which often separates the decent budget spots from the questionable ones at this price point.

Budget travelers and couples seeking a simple island escape will appreciate what Roo Poo Guest House delivers. The 7.5/10 Booking.com rating reflects honest expectations – this isn’t luxury, but it covers the basics well.

Insider Tip: Check-in runs from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM only, so plan your arrival accordingly. Late flights or ferries could leave you waiting until the next day.

At $23/night, you’re getting solid value for Ko Kho Khao, where accommodation options remain limited compared to mainstream Thai islands. The location puts you within reach of the island’s beaches and local restaurants, though you’ll want transport to explore properly. This works as an affordable base for experiencing island life without the Phuket prices.
