Who are we?

Our Story

At The Cocoon, we’re a husband and wife team who are passionate about creating the perfect space for travelers. Nick, originally from England, has traveled the world and stayed in countless hostels. With years of experience, he knows exactly what makes a hostel great—comfort, community, and value. May, from Lampang in northern Thailand, has called Koh Samet home for the past 11 years. Having managed a hotel on the island, she brings a wealth of local knowledge and hospitality expertise to ensure your stay is unforgettable. Together, we’re dedicated to making The Cocoon Hostel your ideal home base on Koh Samet
