Reviews for Blue Dream Hostel
Review 1:The music was blasting till the wee hours even when there was no one appreciating it. The dormitory was outrightly dirty. I was itching all the way till 6am and couldn't tell if it was mosquito or bed bugs. The staffs who clear the room after the guest had left were rude,noisy and seemed to hate their job. Maybe better staff and facilties management would maximise the potential of this hostel.
Review 2:There is a wide array of activities in this hostel considering the price that it is charging.
Review 3:I had the best stay at blue dream, if I ever go back to Koh phangan this is definitly where I will stay. I met alot of new people and there was something going on every night. The staff is super friendly and very helpfull, I couldn't have asked for a better stay!
Review 4:nothing
Review 5:I saw many nice guys and most were backpackers same as I was then. Thorough drinking every night, I could make many friends here. The location is also great for many parties. It is not near Haad rin beach where full moon party is held but we can share taxi with mates, that was also fun to go for full moon party together. The staff are also just great.
Review 6:Staff were very welcoming and helped me find everything I needed on the island. The bar was great, and there was always a party going on in the evening. Good party hostel to warm up before full moon party. Lots of young like-minded travellers stayed at hostel which made for great fun and many friends. Value for money was excellent, I'd highly recommend this place.
Review 7:We don't usually stay in hostels but we wanted somewhere a bit lively with atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised. The lady at reception was awesome. She was incredibly helpful and gave us some great recommendations (where to go, where to eat). The facilities are also great for the price you are paying.
Review 8:Nothin really, just that the snack bar would close by 9.30
Review 9:The amazingly friendly staff, the party ambience, the kind of people who stay there, and sooooo much more!! Definitely a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED PLACE!
Review 10:Nothing.
Review 11:The best part of our stay was the staff. The most friendly and helpful staff we have come across during our stay in Thailand! Welcoming and fun atmosphere. Great pool and bar to chill at, room was clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend staying here!
Review 12:very unhelpful staff: each time asked for something (and I'm not a demanding person) people at the reception smiled saying 'of course' but each time the request was not satisfyed. E.g. Had cold water in the shower, and I had to wait two days before it was fixed. They postponed the intervention 'cos' apparently was a very difficult thing to fix, and when finally someone showed up it came out that it needed 5 mins to be solved. Honestly I would not suggest this structure.
Review 13:nice enviroment
Review 14:Unfortunately our food order was forgotten and an hour later when we reminded them about it, they made the food but then forgot to deliver it to us so it sat outside for a while. This only happened once and mostly food was tasty & on time
Review 15:It was great meeting so many wonderful people from all walks of life!
Review 16:No hot water in shower. ABSOLUTELY no water pressure in the sink (had to wash my hands and teeth in the shower hose). Extremely uncomfortable bed (feel all the springs).
Review 17:Cheap. Nice swimming pool! Nice friendly staff.
Review 18:I shared a dorm with a group of friends, so it was very hard to find people to hang out with. Everybody seems to be in groups all the time. since the place is so huge, it is harder to meet people as a solo traveler. Unless you like to get very drunk every night, then its easy. Maybe this was my experience and for another person it would be completly different. - didnt clean the shower one time. Toilets are disgusting. Poop everywhere.
Review 19:Very friendly and helpfull staf! Compliments for that. A lot of stuff to do, like pool, tabletennis, swimmingpool etc.
Review 20:Just everything, had the best time here with the people I met, didn't want to leave, great staff, great wee family restaurant down the road just the best.
Review 21:Location is really bad. They offer taxi service. On first day I got the blue dream taxi and they took 200 baht off me when it was only ment to be 100. The rules are unfair. Such as no food or drink from the outside around pool area to get more money from you. And with the rooms being dirty I didn't want to sit in tee room and eat so I was forced to eat at their pool bar or go out. And that's no good if you are traveling on a budget. They take your passport to try and charge you more for broken rules. You have to pay for your towel and locker. They make it look like it a deposit but I didn't get my money back. I had to check out early due to boat times and they demanded I give back my towel and locker key the previous night before 9pm. Meaning I couldn't shower in the morning or go out due to my things not being able to be locked away.
Review 22:It had a pool and that's all I liked.
Review 23:Not enough showers but they are building more
Review 24:This place looks like more like a resort than an hostel. It had everything that you need and even more. Football, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, pool table, swimming pool. THE place to be in Koh Phangan.
Review 25:NOTHING
Review 26:Young and very very very good staff. The bar , the pool , the atmosphere, the food This place is just amazing... Thanks to Jeremy, Dylan, Tristan and Meryl you're the best !!!!
Review 27:- We had to pay for our towels while we had booked a private double room, for this money towels should be included. - Quite some music noise until late at night (don't come for early sleep). - The rooms had big openings under the doors/windows, causing having gecko's in the room and a huge spider
Review 28:- Nice sport facilities - Rent scooters - Friendly staff - Good vibe if you come to party
Review 29:I wish i had more time to spend there...
Review 30:I realy enjoyed the welcoming and the friendly staff. very efficient ! Lots of activities in the hostel and easy to book other trips The location is great, the food aswell. I Will come back
Review 31:I didn't like the fact that I liked every thing
Review 32:I liked every thing .... The bar , the pool , the room , the sport complexe , the staff , the food , the atmosphere and the owner Jeremy and his wife !!!!
Review 33:Not the cleanest of places (bathrooms/showers) rooms were ok, but dont let that put you off, it was a really cool place to visit and i will be back
Review 34:Music in communal areas was always brilliant - chilled out during the day and dancy at night. Lots of stuff to do, great place to meet people/other travellers, good value for money would recommend!
Review 35:Cleanliness
Review 36:The outside shared facilities were fantastic, the cleanliness of the room was shocking. There were lizards, bugs on the beds and flying ants and mosi's may as well have been outside. The shower didn't work and smelt. Depends what you want, personally I wasn't too fused about the room, we saved a lot staying get there, but my friend was mega grossed out the whole time
Review 37:bathroom was not very clean had some uninvited friends (bugs, etc) they swithched off the conditioning during night, was impossible to sleep
Review 38:free pool nice lounge area super friendly staff
Review 39:Showers were quite dirty and curtains didn't even cover anything so very limited privacy.
Review 40:Great atmosphere with many other travelers, definitely the place to be for partying. Nice location just a 5 minute walk from the beach.
Review 41:The hygiene level is not too high: but lets be honest, the hygiene is good enough for the price you're paying
Review 42:i had an amazing time at hard road because it is really easy to meet people. The swimming pool is amazing as well and the staff is great!
Review 43:Had to Taxi to the decent beach and peds are a must to see the best bits of the island (recommend getting peds anyway) and also taxi to the full moon party etc! However with the money you're saving by staying out of the way of the party scene a £2 taxi isn't unreasonable!
Review 44:Ok location with decent restaurants and shops nearby, rooms were cleaned daily and staff were very friendly and helpful!
Review 45:This is the place where people hang around. The facilities was very good and for solo traveller this is the place where we can meet people.

Review 98:Amazing staff, amazing vibe, amazing everything!
Review 99:Besides the full and half moon party there seems to be nothing going on at the island and the hostel. As a solo traveller not the best place to be then. Downstairs showers could be cleaner.
Review 100:Awesome place, easy to meet people and really chilled out vibe.
Review 101:Dorms and showers are not to comfortable and clean... Interior is not too special... Menu is far from good (I think) and expensive... Staff in restaurant forgot how to smile... :)
Review 102:It a very nice place to stay for young individual backpackers who like to party and interact with other travelers. What I liked most was the friendly and social atmosphere. They created lots of space to hang out and chill (couch-area) and pre-parties (BBQ and painting before half/full moon parties, games etc). People here are very social and everybody likes to interact and connect. Although I think the hostel itself was far from clean and not too comfortable I had a GREAT time here, lots of fun, made many friends and I would definitely come back!
Review 103:- Location: It is far from Haad Rin and there are no convenient stores or restaurants nearby - Facilities: Locks were broken, AC wasnt working, ran out of water for a day and the toilets, showers were a nightmare (they fixed everything within a day but that day was terrible) - Noise: They start playing music fairly early and also can hear people talking around all the time. Did not get any rest the 2 days I stayed here and left (even though I booked for 5)
Review 104:Staff and some of the people I met there
Review 105:Had a cockroach in my room but quickly removed by the cleaning women. It wasn't very busy when there's no fullmoon party.
Review 106:Friendly staff! Good facilities. Cheap price.
Review 107:The personal in the café can sometimes be a little "unfocused"
Review 108:Stayed at the villas and a pool is always great. Liked starting the party nights in the bar at the café. The location is good close to Thongsala and on the road to Haad Rin.
Review 109:There's nothing that I didn't like
Review 110:This place is fantastic to stay at if you're up for partying at one if the moon parties, or just want to relax and read a book. The staff are excellent and getting everyone involved, whether it be pre-moon party, or playing beach volleyball, ping pong etc. This hostel is by far the best I've stayed.
Review 111:The only down side which isnt even a bad thing was the location, it slightly too far to walk to Thong sala, which is the closest town with shops, therefore you have to hire a bike or get a taxi.
Review 112:Everything was good about this hostel, its clean, has lots of facilities, staff are great, activities are encouraged, food is very good. They have their own bars and pools with projector screen for sports or movies.
Review 113:No 7-11 nearby! (And everyone loves them in Thailand). When we hadissues with the reception computers and asked for help we were simplytold "don't know what's wrong" even before having alook. Its fine not to be a tech whizz instead replace with commoncustomer courtesy - so if it does turn out the comps on sitearen't working, come out turn left and few meters up the road isan internet cafe.
Review 114:Short trip from the port to Baan Tai - and no up hill down hill windybiiiit scary roads to tackle! Which you get if you go further onto HaadRin. Friendly greeting, I had requested to stay in the Villas which theupgrade was no problem - kindly gave us a lift over the road from thereception to the Villas. Stayed in a great size room, had fridge, doublebed, lounge area and bath. Motorbike only 200baht which is good. Frommain reception beach is across the road, a nice pool and beach frontrestaurant/bar called Milky Bay which you can relax by if you buysomething. Hard Road panini's are lovely!
Review 115:Nice place to meet other travelers before you head out to one of the many parties on the island. Staff is very helpful and the owner will beat you in table tennis anytime ;)
Review 116:This is a hard one because I really did like everything. I guess the only thing would be, for me, personally, because of my budget I would have liked the food on their menu to have been priced a little cheaper but there are quite a few different thai restaurants to choose from only a short distance from the hostel and they all serve delicious local food for around the equivelent of £1.50 so it really wasnt an issue.
Review 117:I liked everything!!! The staff, the location, the atmosphere, the design, the price! The cute twin puppies! The cleanliness also. The atmosphere particuarly is amazing, very relaxed but also revs up for the islands party nights and they throw in some of their own inbetween the big parties. The staff are always very friendly and willing to help with anything, they answer any question you might throw at them and are very useful for knowing more information about parties and things to do around the island. Across the street right in front of the beach are their villas. Guests at the cafe can also use all the facillities at the villas which include pool, both deep and shallow, for lazing in the sun, very lovely! and bar where you can order all food from the menu inlcuding very yummy boozy ice cream shakes! As you can tell I absolutely loved this place. Just wish I could have been their for longer but definitely plan to return! Easily the best hostel ever, miles ahead in fact in terms of comfort, value for money, facillities, and perhaps most importantly FUN!!!!!!!
Review 118:Staff cant understand you in restaurant, toilet shower only 2 for all touse (one was getting painted) and flash was not working alltime, musicvery load but lucky only from round 10 am till 10 pm
Review 119:Very big beds in the woman dorms (14'), clean bedrooms, gooda/c, great wifi connection, meet other people, hard road villa touse but 5 min walk
Review 120:nothing!!
Review 121:- Sociale area 2 meet people - good restaurant - nice and helpfull staff - great pre-parties incl taxi - movies and sports on 2 beamers and tv in aircoroom of the reception - clean rooms - cutest dogs - Hard Road Beachbar is also nice ;) - really cheap Liked it so much, just want to take the hostel with me on me trip haha
