We spend 2 weeks at the shadow and had an amazing time! Por, the owner is adorable and a super host! I felt that he new what each Guest was needing for the perfect holidays and he would provide (if possible) or give ideas or put you in the right direction. We really felt at home and a little family with the rest of the guest.
The rooms are simple but together, super clean, all working and with pretty details!! (Por is an artist)
Is not by the beach, but there is one 5min walk. And since is in the middle of the island It was easy to get everywhere, even walking, wich we did.
And on top of all there is a great pool table, drinks and music taste!!
Hope to be back one day🫶
We stopped by The Shadow for a drink on our first night on Koh Phayam. Although we didn't stay in the rooms there, we came back several times throughout our trip. Por is a wonderful host and friend. He is very knowledgeable about the island...ask him about the pythons! He rented us a scooter for a week, and was super kind to drop us off at the pier when it was time to go. Great drinks, awesome music, and good vibes at The Shadow. I Cant' say enough good things, you just have to go and see for yourself!!
Cant wait to come back and visit you Por! It's cold in Canada!!!

It always suprises me how friendly Mr. Por welcomes his guests.
Rooms are clean and location is good - theres a only short path to everywhere. Motorbikes are available for guests to rent.
Shadow house is in the middle of jungle so you can wake up to the birds singing.
There is no restaurant in the shadow house, but Por seems to enjoy hosting dinner parties with good drinks. We had really good seafood bbq one night and the other he made mussaman curry. It was the best mussaman curry i have ever eaten.
Por speaks really good english and he is always helping his guests with transportation and such.
Best bar on the best island! Wonderful welcome and magical environment. Good drinks and good prices. The owner Por is fantastic and helps with everything imaginable, really longs to return. My son and I spent a month in this wonderful country and really hope to return soon.

a very nice place to relax and have a drink, the cat and the dog who live there are adorable. the host is very friendly and he makes the best cocktails on the island, try the shadow cocktail, specialty of the regions, and we could even borrow his kitchen to make a European meal all together :)))
Estuvimos unos días en una de las habitaciones del Shadow y pasamos los mejores momentos de nuestro viaje a Tailandia. No está a primera línea de mar pero la playa está a cinco minutos a pié. Las habitaciones sencillas pero limpias y la zona exterior con el bar es verdaderamente tranquilo. El propietario es superamable y habla un inglés perfecto. Tenéis que probar los cócteles que prepara!!!
Best place i’ve ever stayed in my life. Great hospitality from Por! Everywhere, everything all at once.
We are one of shadow family now and connected all the time. I see you when you see me🦋
