Ko Jum (เกาะจำ), also known as Ko Phu (or Pu) (เกาะปู), is a small island between Ko Lanta and Krabi Town.
Very basic bungalows. Think one step above camping. Have mosquito nets. May have ants and geckos in the room. No fans, so it can get warm on hot nights when sleeping. Five bungalows within five metres of the beach, with a total of about fifteen or so. With or without attached bathroom/showers with squat toilets. Uses solar electricity so lights are usually off by 23:00. Food is a good value with decent prices and portions. The owner, Deela, is the reason many people return often. Many cats around, but it's that or rats.
Surrounded by jungle and a couple of other resorts. Nine bungalows with baths, serving all meals and delicious local seafood. Beach volleyball, plenty of hammocks, local trips, and Thai massage can be arranged. Fan and electricity all day.
Fan bungalows with a great view of the Andaman Sea, just a few stairs from Ao Se Beach in Ting Rai village. Fan bungalows with balcony and bathroom. New, quiet resort without restaurant, but there are plenty of quality restaurants within walking distance of this resort.
Simple bungalows with and without attached bathroom. Very good restaurant with big portions. Electricity only from 18:00-22:00.
Six bungalows with bath, serving all meals and delicious seafood. Plenty of hammocks. Local trips and Thai massage can be arranged. Electricity available in the evening.
During high season (late-Oct-late-Apr), ferries between Ko Lanta and Krabi Town call at the island. You must pay the full fare (400 baht) for the full crossing, despite only travelling half way.
