Ao Tub Tim

TubTim Resort

Since 1981 we are running Tubtim-Resort, which we started with 10 bungalows built from bamboo at that time. As well we established the meanwhile well known, and for the brilliant food famous, restaurant. According to the beloved style of the island, staying there was very puristic, sharing a public shower, while enjoying the nice and quiet white sand beach in middle of the palm trees.
Already two years later we decided to built the bungalows from wood, and encreased the number to 15. Within this renovation we established the first water supply system enabling us to provide private showers and toilets for each bungalow since 1983. The fresh water has to be brought all the way from the mainland by boat since, and is still stored in a local tank for permanent availablity.

After a couple of years, as the utilisation demanded it, we raised the comfort by setting up generators in 1991 to have electricity for the restaurant as well as for all bungalows, giving us light on a switch and ceiling fans for the hot nights. Happily we built our still existing, but meanwhile modified, beach bar in 1992, followed by the BBQ-corner in 1996, which finally gave us the possibility to serve our customers right at the beach, what greatly pleased them ever since.
Our huts offer exotic comfort, though our policy is to let you experience a TRUE-NATURAL way of the Island's life-style.

We have many types of rooms available, as we wanted to make sure to meet your requirements at best.
We have 2 types of room styles which is a wooden-type and a building-type. Both provide normal electrical fan as well as air-conditioned to suite your needs.

Our prices are starting from THB 600,- up (per day charge for 2 persons). Please contact us directly for availability and pricing.

NOTE: * Air-condition can only be used from 5:00 pm.-10:00 am. ONLY (Due to our energy-saving policy).
