Climate
It's the best in Thailand there! On the daytime it can be hot, but in the nightime usually a little bit fresh, somtimes cold with 15 C. In the april it can be nearly 40C on the daytime! Because the bungalows made with wood (only 1 stone bungalow) you don't need AC.

Internet/Telephone
Since 2003 we have telephone and internet (about 2 Baht/min).

Supermarket
Some small supermarkets in Khao Sok too. They have ice-cream, beer, cigaretts, sweets, yoghurt, some drinks, medicine, fruits, dry-soup and many things more. If you miss something we can buy it in Takua Pa, the next big city, 40km west.

Leeches
