Accommodation of Nomads Land:
The bungalows focus on simplicity and natural feng shui ensuring that each one has the perfectly placed hammock-terrace combination, an amazing view of the sea, and is perfect for a relaxing getaway. Each bungalow has its own individual character and design, all highlighting a different aspect of Koh Totang. All the bungalows have light in their rooms and patio. As this is an eco guesthouse, we work to preserve water as much as possible. With the use of common dry compost toilets and Khmer style shared showers, we are able to remain sustainable throughout the dry season. Only the Dive Inn & the Hop Bay Now Bungalows have their private bathroom.
