Keow and Mr. Chung will be your hosts.

The 20 or so bungalows are situated at a comfortable distance from the restaurant in Mr. Chung's wonderful garden. He has surrounded each bungalow with huge colorful bougainvillea and hibiscus. The back units are shaded in a cashew grove.
In addition to the 20 basic bungalows are 20+ private houses for rent and managed by the resort.

The staff is hand picked by Mr Chung. Their friendly attitude and attention to detail will make your stay a pleasure.
Our restaurant will delight you with some of the finest Thai cooking in the South. This reputation alone is starting to bring first timers and repeats to Siboya Bungalows. Some of our culinary tasteful treats are now being taught in North American cooking schools, and have been featured in "New Thai Cuisine". Western fare typical to the area is also available. Why not try some of Siboya's wonderful delicious recipes at home!
:: Quiet and Peaceful • Escape from the Crowds
Siboya Bungalows is off the regular tourist trail located on the island of Ko Siboya (see-boy-ya) about 20 kilometers south of Krabi Town in Southern Thailand. It is very rural and undeveloped where you will find only a few local stalls selling household supplies, snacks and petrol. Ko Siboya is home to about a 1500 or so residents whose work is mainly in the rubber plantations or fishing. Dirt roads and foot paths connect the 4 or 5 small communities on this 3x10 kilometer island. The lack of easy access to the island has limited transportation to either motorcycles or walking. This limitation has helped keep it so undeveloped. A Community Clinic is able to handle minor medical problems. As you might have guessed by now, Siboya Bungalows is a delightfully quiet place to relax. Don't forget... the lost art of goofing off is alive and well here.
:: But... please do not come to Ko Siboya looking for that postcard perfect Thai beach. Here you can enjoy the solitude of leisurely walks along the uninhabited kilometers of beach, waiting for the tide to come in to go for a swim. You will find an amazing abundance of beach creatures, rocks and mangroves to explore as well as the gathering place for the spectacular sunsets.
