Local artisans at work on Ko Yao Noi
Our Story

How BigHugHome Began

BigHugHome was born from a simple idea: that a stay on Ko Yao Noi should feel like being welcomed into a friend's home. Our founders fell in love with the island's quiet rhythm, its longtail boats and its generous people — and built a place where guests could experience all of it without giving up modern comfort.

Every room, every meal and every experience is shaped by the local community that inspired us.

Sustainability

Rooted in the Local Community

We are committed to sustainability and to supporting the communities around us. Our ingredients come from local markets, our tours are led by island guides, and our craft workshops put income directly into the hands of local artisans.

When you stay with us, your visit gives back to the island that makes it special.
