Description

My Travel Homestay is a 2-star hostel in Haad Rin on Koh Phangan, with air-conditioned beds in shared dormitories. Three room formats accommodate a single bed reservation in 6-bed mixed, 8-bed and 10-bed dormitories; their floor areas range from 12 m² to 16 m². All have shared bathroom facilities, and each offers air conditioning and linen.

Thong Sala is 9.4 km away; Haad Rin Queen terminal is 300 m from the hostel, and Haad Rin Nok is 350 m away. Guests have free private parking and free WiFi, alongside a 24-hour front desk, tour desk, car hire, currency exchange and laundry service. The shared bathrooms have showers, toilets, towels and toilet paper; extra towels or sheets carry a fee.

The stay suits travellers comfortable with dormitory accommodation and shared facilities. Feedback often praises access to Full Moon Party, but reports also mention hard beds and concerns about bathroom cleanliness and privacy.

Rooms

3 room types · 12–16 m²

Accommodation is arranged as individual bed places in three dormitory formats rather than private bedrooms. You can choose a bed in a 6-bed mixed dormitory, an 8-bed dormitory or a 10-bed mixed dormitory. Each room option has air conditioning and linen, and the room sizes range from 12 m² to 16 m². The 6-bed and 10-bed rooms use bunk beds, while the 8-bed option has a single bed.

Each bed place has a one-person capacity, and all three room types use shared bathroom facilities rather than private bathrooms. The 12 m² six-bed room is the smallest, the 14 m² eight-bed room sits between the other two, and the 16 m² ten-bed room is largest. This gives solo travellers a choice of dorm size, with air conditioning and linen common to every option.

My Travel Homestay is in Haad Rin at the southern tip of Koh Phangan. Ban Haad Rin is 50 m away, and the Israeli House temple is 150 m from the hostel. Full Moon Party is 300 m away, while Haad Rin Nok, the beach where the monthly event takes place, is 350 m away. Luang Pu Thuat Shrine is another local religious landmark. The monthly gathering takes place on the same Haad Rin Nok stretch, while the nearby temple is a separate local landmark.

Haad Rin Queen terminal is 300 m from the hostel; its direct service links Haad Rin with Bangrak on Koh Samui in about 20–30 minutes. From Samui International Airport, Bangrak pier is a 10–15-minute transfer, followed by the boat crossing. Thong Sala, the island's main port, is 9.4 km away, and shared songthaew pickups connect it with Haad Rin. The steep road into Haad Rin calls for care on a scooter. Free private parking is available on site without a reservation.

Haad Rin Nok is the main beach for the monthly Full Moon event. Haad Seekantang and Haad Rin Viewpoint are each 600 m away. Haad Yuan lies 2.1 km away and Haad Thian 2.7 km away; both are reached by boat because there is no road to them. February to April are generally the driest, calmest months on the Gulf coast. East-coast seas are rougher in November and December, which can affect boat outings.
