Loved this hostel. Quiet location for the hostel itself which was lovely, but a short walk to the fisherman’s markets and a short taxi ride to the busy hussle street of Koh Samui. Hostel was super chill vibes, room was nice, workers were lovely too. Really loved this hostel wanted to stay longer

Situated in Chaweng and with Chaweng Beach reachable within less than 1 km, DK1Hostel features concierge services, rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is around 1.5 km from Chaweng Noi Beach, 5.3 km from Fisherman Village and 7.6 km from Big Buddha. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, a tour desk and currency exchange for guests.

I had a wonderful stay in this hostel well located between Chaweng beach and the main walking street of the entire island. But mostly what makes the difference here is the genuinely and the love of the owner, an amazing woman who puts effort and care for the guests that will let you feel like home. I will keep beautiful memories about her and her welcoming hostel. Thank you!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    You really get your money’s worth in this hotel. For such a good price we got a spacious room, very good AC, a TV with Netflix and amazing water pressure. Any backpacker would agree that these are small wins which are appreciated whilst travelling. Obviously if you want 5 star luxury then this isn’t for you but if you’re a backpacker/traveller or looking for good quality on a budget then this should be up your street. We needed a transfer to the airport at 6am and the owner took us themselves, the staff were all lovely.

    Great location! The breakfast was complimentary and if you wanted a little bit eggstra there is a perfect breakfast and coffee shop only 100metres away from the backpacker entrance. There’s really clear sign posting so you can find the hostel from the main road. There great facilities such as pool table, swimming pool, hammocks. The owners were soooo lovely. They were chatty, friendly, helpful. They let us leave our bags in reception, booked our airport transfer and gave advice about the island.
