  Amazing, I can’t wait to come back!!!!

  Heavenly ! Staying at Shambala Paradise was like finding gold. We had never been at a guest house with no neighbours , the property is huge , quiet and private . Surrounded by tall trees, the view from the large balcony is spectacular. It's close to the main road with all the bars and restos nearby plus the center of town just a few minutes away, you feel like you’re on another planet. Close by to beaches and waterfalls makes it a perfect location. The bed has a nice firm mattress and it also has a coffee maker. We had only reserved for 2 nights but ended up extending another 4 nights more.....Paradise !

  В этом доме Вы можете почувствовать себя не туристом, а жителем острова. Дом расположен вдали от шумных улиц, на возвышении; с веранды открывается великолепный вид - на окрестности и море, здесь очень хорошо встречать закаты и мечтать. В доме есть все необходимое - холодильник, сейф, чайник, вентилятор. Я бы рекомендовал этот дом одиноким романтикам и влюбленным парам. Хозяин (Кевин) заботится и помогает - забронировать билеты, найти места для посещения и др. Для того, чтобы ездить на пляжи и водопады, нужно арендовать байк. Если я еще раз приеду на Сикихор - обязательно поселюсь в этом месте.

  Интернет хорошо работает только ближе к ночи. К этому нужно быть готовым.

  Just rent on the beach with AC, hot water and Starlink internet

  No drunk teenagers screaming “bro” at 4 am

  If the guy has the audacity to rent out a spider and lizard infested shack with: NO HOT WATER NO WORKING WIFI NO CELLULAR SIGNAL NO GENERATOR DURING BLACKOUTS All while charging 5$ extra for AC PER NIGHT Then I have the audacity to leave a 1/10 rating. Cuz kenedia is all about fairness and equality. Eh!? I’m living in SE Asia for 3.5 years, “I have seen things, you people wouldn’t believe” This shack on the hill is worse than a ping pong show in Pattaya. I came home at night, there’s a fat lizard size of a water bottle sitting outside, above the door. Watching. Staring. You throw a slipper at it, it comes back 3 minutes later. Those Tokay Geckos are territorial and crazy, also they scream at night. You can go find on YouTube. Roosters at 3am? Of course! There were spiders everywhere inside, I spent 3 nights chasing them with a spray can. There were also two small geckos, one was bigger and constantly crawled around the bed. I warned it for two days, it didn’t get the hint, so I nuked it too. You are welcome. Then the owner texts you like a needy ex 10 times a day. “How are you?” “How did you sleep” “you should arrange a taxi ride back to fairy” That’s when you go “Really dude? I’ve been on the island for 4 days, police already wave at me, bartenders saying don’t worry about it sir, you are a regular, I know where to rent ATVs and who to give 3$ to learn to ride a scooter, and you can’t arrange a taxi ride to the ferry?” Sure enough morning of the check-out: no power, no wife, no signal, no help. Have to drag your suitcase through the jungle to the main road. That side road? Even taxi drivers didn’t want to go down that disaster. I wasn’t sure what will break first the suitcase wheels or my sanity. I can go on forever. Bad enough there’s that endless broken stairway you have to take every day through spiderwebs while getting smacked in the face by branches. Now imagine at night… drunk… I can seriously go on for an hour.
