    We had an amazing stay at this beachfront hostel. The vibes were great and the socializing area was really cool. The hostel had comfortable beds, well-organized rooms, and the owner was very nice and helpful. The location was perfect, right across the street from the beach and within walking distance of grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops. The staff was friendly and the bedrooms were cleaned every day. we couldn't ask for a better experience.

    Nothing it was perfect.

    This hostel is superb for trekkers and group of friends looking for a comfortable and budget-friendly stay. Its location is great, just steps away from a beautiful beach. the common spaces are clean and spacious, perfect for hanging out with friends. the staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay. Plus, there are plenty of bars, restaurants, and convenience stores nearby, making it convenient for all your needs.

    The showers, although clean, are in the same space as the toilets, which might not be everyone's preference.

    I got excellent value for my money at Doolay Beachfront - comfortable beds, clean rooms, and a friendly staff. The location right across the street from the beach was unbeatable.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

    This beachfront hostel offers modern dorms with comfy beds, lockers, and curtains. The social lounge area with a TV and games is a great place to hang out with friends. The bathrooms are always clean, and the owner, although limited in English, is nice and helpful. The location is perfect, just a road away from the beach and a 2-minute walk to the nearest 7-11.

    Felt welcomed into the family, nothing to complain about.

    The location was perfect, we were just a stone's throw away from all the happening spots in Karon Beach. We hit up Dino Park Mini Golf and Big Buddha and it was a blast. The hostel itself was super cool with a chill vibe, comfy beds, and clean facilities. Definitely a spot for young party-goers like us!

    If I have to nitpick, it would be awesome if the hostel had organized some fun activities for us young folks. Like a beach party or a bar crawl.

    I recently stayed at Doolay Beachfront in Karon for a week and it was the best hostel I stayed in in Thailand! The friendly guests and good kitchen facilities made it easy to save money by making my own food. The clean rooms with air con were a relief in the hot weather, and the chill out area on the balcony had an awesome beach view. The hostel's location right across from the beach was even better than the Hilton Hotel. Despite being a beach hostel, Doolay Beachfront was very clean and managed to keep the sand out. The comfortable beds, modern and clean toilets, and the living room and outdoor deck for hanging out and meeting travelers made this hostel one of the best in its class.

    Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

    Amazing location with beautiful views of the beach. Comfy beds with shelves and sockets for every bed.Clean facilities with a kitchen, games, books, and a balcony overlooking the beach.Hot or cold showers with shampoo and shower gel provided

    No curtains for some beds and towel hire required. Unhelpful and rude staff, DIY cleaning.

    You'll love the perfect location of this beachfront hostel, just steps away from the stunning beach. the comfortable beds and clean facilities ensure a pleasant stay. the large balcony is a highlight, providing a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. the hostel even offers a kitchen for your convenience, allowing you to prepare your meals.

    The language barrier with some staff members can be a bit challenging at times.

    I had such a great stay at a beachfront hostel in Thailand! The communal areas were cozy with comfy couches and a spacious balcony with beanbags. Plus, the location was amazing, just steps away from the beach. I even rented a scooter from the front desk to explore the nearby attractions. I highly recommend this hostel for a comfortable and convenient stay.
