venue is gorgeous, rooms are spacious and staff are brilliant. As a 'backpackers' choice this is miles ahead of any other backpacker option I have stayed in, after spending time in various 12 bed dorms this was a breath of fresh air, 2 double beds per room meant you had the space id been craving for ages, private pool, great...

If you are looking for a place to stay how thailand used to be, friendly staff, amazing food, accommodation to die for, and a pool but still a 2 min walk to the beach! then look no further than SHIRALEA! 100% WINNING

Best place i visited in Thailand! Josh, Brett, Joy and the rest of Shiralea's employee's make the experience the best as possible! had soo much fun and good times there! Highly recommend this backpackers resort and anyone who is traveling through Koh Phangan should stop in and experience it for themselves! - Graham

First time in Thailand, definitely not the last. I would totally recommend staying here. The resort as a whole was utterly fantastic from the friendly staff to the excellent food. Calm and relaxed atmosphere. Two minute walk from the beach. Doesn't get any better.

going back soon loved this place!!!!, rooms are sweet, awesome pool area. highlight for me was the friendly welcoming staff will help with anything you want to do and bar area good for bit of partying in the evening and chilling during the day. Also i think in one of the nicest parts of phangan!.

I had the pleasure of visiting shiralea on my contiki tour. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Best parts for me was the great food, breakfast being freshly prepared and served till late and of course the bell in the bar. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun party vibe whilst in koh phangan.

We just came back from a 4 month trip and we stayed at Shiralea twice. Both times we extended our stay as well! We love everything about Shiralea, it's so relaxing, yet if you want to you can party it up. The staff is beyond great, so friendly and helpful. This place really is your home away from home, definitely... More

I would absolutely stay here again . The staff were friendly, it had a nice atmosphere in the evenings, and very chilled during the day. Nice cool lounge area and very clean. The pool was lovely any time of the day. Would stay here again for sure!
