Description
A family owned business, bungalows and restaurant on a small island called Koh Mook, located in Thailand's Andaman sea. We built our wooden units respecting the environment and the traditional style of Thai buildings. Please note that our place is integrated in the nature so if you are afraid of bugs and sounds of nature it could be a problem for you... We hope to meet you soon

Help
As this is a small family owned resort, we have here only two local employees, working full time all year long. A woman who does both rooms cleaning and cooking and her husband is multi task such as building, landscaping, taxi driver and so on... During low season we have extra work to do so we look for helpers for the following tasks :
- Construction work (Builders, handy guys and/or strong individuals)
- WordPress website designer (SEO, content update, performance optimization, design)
- Cooking for the family, cleaning kitchen and bungalows, looking after our two boys (3 and 5 yo)
We could also consider people with abilities for the following:
- Social networks freaks (programming posts with meta business or similar tools, taking pictures with drone)
- Landscaping (weeding, grass trimming)
- Qualified designers or architects (plans and tips to develop our resort)

What else ...
