    🙂 Hello Fiona and Teep, it was too long between the visit years ago, and the last one of 3 weeks ago. I will come more often now. Wow, what work you have both achieved, I never thought that you could make that restaurant more beautiful, but the new sala's in the garden are so stylish as are the new bungalows. Well done! I so appreciate the work and thought you have put in to your home, thank you. As usual the food was the best (well done little Pen), and boat trip fantastic! Take care, and will be back soon to your little corner of the earth soon. Say hello to your mum and dad.

    Hello Mai Pen Rai Team,
    I booked with you months ago, on recommendation from a friend, and from your website (which must say is absolutely on the ball), knew that this was the right place for me.
    When I arrived, I realized that this place was perfect for me, and could have stayed for months. The food, the atmosphere, the spirit of the place was for me better than the most expensive places I have stayed in, and I have never felt more at home or relaxed than this holiday here at Mai Pen Rai. I stayed in a family room on the rocks, and the bungalow was like a house, loads of space and privacy. I will definitely be back, and the next time with my fiance.
    Thank you Fiona, Steve and Teep
    Number 41! (incase you have forgotten).

    I just left a few days ago, with all the ongoing travel organised for me by Katie, and now am at Surat Thani airport waiting to go. Thank you guys, what a team you have got together Fiona and Teep. I had tears in my eyes when I left, and really am already planning the dates for next year. I had doubts coming to a place like this, but the lack of electricity late at night, and the cold water in fact added charm to the place.
    keep it just as you have done it. 🙂

    Thank you Mai Pen Rai, for a wonderful time at Than Sadet. The place, people and hospitality makes your place a home-away-from-home. In a time where Big Resorts are fastly taking over the wonders of the island, your place feels like a hidden gem. Wish i could've have stayed much, much longer. Take care, Laurine Verweyen

    hello. what an experience. even falling off the motorbike getting there was worth it. advice to anyone, if you are not good on the bike, come by car, it is worth it! i stayed in the new river room, and although i was disappointed not to get a beach room, they are a bargain, cheaper, really massive (never thought i would get marble floors for 400 Baht), and i could watch the big iguanas in the river from my balcony. mai pen rai is my new holiday place. thank you to all of you.

    Hi Guys, I just left yesterday. I am now in a hotel in Surat Thani, awaiting a flight out in morning to Bangkok and then home. Thank you for everything, thank you for making me feel at home, even when you were all run off your feet in your mad busy rush this month. Thank you for the wonderful food, always delicious from the kitchen there, and for the beautiful space just to be and come down to earth. As I said before, hoping to be back at Christmas with my boyfriend. Take care all of you.

    Mai Pen Rai is a wondrous place to idle away into soft dream love light land. Our family enjoyed the beach, the swimming, the stunning views that reminded us of NeverNever Land… silvery sunrises, the best steamed fish ever, cruising monitor lizards and the 'Imminent Tiger' are not to be forgotten. And the family that runs this place is just lovely…they welcomed our daughter with such openness and many romps were had thanks to sweet Lily and Rosalie. Thank you all, especially Na who works her butt off!! Take care and we'll be back for sure…

    We first visited Mai Pen Rai in December 2009. Spending 3 weeks at Mai Pen Rai in December , with such beautiful people, beautiful beach and cute bungalows, we fell in love with the place and decided to ask Fiona and Teep if they were willing to organize our wedding in august 2010.
    Fiona organized our wedding in a fantastic way, very lovely staff, wonderful decoration, long tail boats to make a boat trip, great food, cocktails, a stunning wedding cake, fabulous music (a wonderful Japanese guitarist during the ceremony and a dj at night), fireworks, a great fire show from Nok, floating candles etc. Everything we wished for on our wedding day came out wonderful and beautiful thanks to Fiona, Teep and the staff. Our wish was to marry with all our guests dressed in white and even the staff was dressed in white on our wedding day!!!
    We can't think of anything bad to say about Mai Pen Rai. It was our dream destination in December 2009 and August 2010 our dream came true.

    We are already planning our next trip to Thailand beginning of next year and will make some time to come back!!

    The most special and amazing place! Perfect if you want to relax surrounded by a beautiful nature, almost private beach without the flow of the tourists, nice and different style bungalows for a reasonable price.
    Mai Pen Rai restaurant is charming cosy; the food is so delicious and the Menu with vide selection.
    And the service is really with a personal touch!!!
    I love this special place!!! It’s made with LOVE!
    Thank You, Fiona & Teep, for the wonderful time and unforgettable experience!

    We fell in love with Mai Pen Rai when we visited in Jan/Feb 2010, and have been dreaming and plotting how to get back ever since! Talked it up so much we've convinced some friends to come with us this Jan/Feb (2012) to avoid some of the Canadian winter. As soon as we confirm our flight plans we'll be booking a bungalow on the rocks.

    One of of the most beautiful places I have been. It was calm, quiet and relaxed, yet lively when you wanted it to be. The restaurant is a great place to meet people who are also travelling from all over the world. I loved the atmosphere and of course, the beautiful beach and river! Advice and help is always available as well if needed. I hope I will return very soon:D Thank you for a wonderful stay.

    Just returned from Mai Pen Rai. we had 10 extraordinary days and will certainly return.
    If you are looking for peace and a quiet environment away from the bustling tourist areas, then this is the right place to go.
    There are not many places left like this and hopefully Than Sadet will stay like this for many more years.
    Thanks and Regards to the friendly staff who made us enjoy our stay even more !

    Hello dearest Thansadet people,
    are there any signs of development yet on Tong Reng?

    We might return to your beautiful place in November, but we will have a tight schedule.

    Do you, or will you, accept Bitcoins for payments?

    All the best to you all

    We stayed in Mai Pen Rai in March 2013 and had 3 perfect weeks and will be happy to return this year.MaiPenRai is really peaceful with everything you need to enjoy you holidays. Beautiful sea with nice sandy beach and a river next to it. Excellent food and a choice of restaurants. Especially with 2 small children we were excited to see how easy life was and met many other families like us.Thanks to Fiona Thip & the friendly staff with the genius Dr. Singh who made us enjoy our stay even more !Marcus, Tara, Lenny & Sunny

    Fiona — it’s Clancy. I was showing friends pictures this Christmas and… I miss you. Then I saw this new drone 360 and am homesick, too. My mom also asked about you. I would love to talk! Send me an email and I’ll call you.
