Nomad Stay Hostel & Co-working
Compare prices
Nomad Stay Hostel & Co-working is a small, characterful hostel situated in Chaweng, one of Koh Samui's most convenient and well-connected neighbourhoods. What consistently sets it apart from comparable accommodation on the island is the owner, whose attentiveness and genuine warmth are a recurring theme across visitor accounts. Guests describe feeling genuinely looked after from arrival, with the host going out of her way to help travellers settle in, suggest local activities, and create a welcoming atmosphere that is harder to find in larger or more impersonal properties.
The hostel offers both dormitory-style accommodation and private rooms, making it suitable for solo travellers as well as those who prefer a little more space. Beds are notably large and comfortable by hostel standards. The addition of a co-working space makes this a practical choice for digital nomads or longer-stay travellers who need a reliable place to work. The overall atmosphere leans toward calm and community rather than party hostel energy, which suits those looking to slow down and settle in.
Practically speaking, this hostel appeals especially to solo travellers and those planning extended stays of a week or more. Guests have noted that some rooms could benefit from additional storage, so packing light or bringing a few organisational items such as packing cubes is worth considering. As a smaller, independently run property, availability may be limited during peak season, so booking in advance is advisable.

Reviews from Google
I stayed here as a solo traveler for three weeks. The female owner is truly lovely, caring, and considerate. When I arrived, I was feeling very overwhelmed and just needed a place to be alone, focus on my work, and take care of my well-being – this accommodation offered exactly that, even though it’s a hostel. I really liked that the hostel isn’t located right on the party streets (but you can easily and cheaply reach them by scooter or taxi). The place provided both peace and privacy, yet also the chance to meet other travelers if you feel like having company to chat with or explore the area together. It had everything needed for cooking and storing your own food and drinks. It was a very nice hostel and, during my stay, it didn’t have the usual ‘party hostel’ vibe — no drunken chaos or anything like that. It was peaceful, more like a place to actually live and relax. The cleanliness was also maintained very well. I can warmly recommend this place — I stayed in the women’s dorm (separate floor from the mixed one) and really enjoyed my time there! I especially recommend it for longer stays. Thank you and see you later again
Super hostel, perfectly located on Chaweng The owner is extremely friendly and welcoming — she really does everything she can to make everyone feel comfortable, and can even suggest activities to do around. The common areas and dorms are clean and well air-conditioned. There are several spaces, including coworking areas and balconies spot. There’s a kitchen and free coffee available (which is quite rare for hostels in Thailand) Highly recommended!
Absolutely unique. The hostel is in a great location and the owner puts so much love into it. The beds are incredibly large for hostel beds and very comfortable. I would book it again in a heartbeat!
