The coast resort in koh phangan was AMAZING!! Perfect location with a beautiful pool that looks to flow straight into the beach as you approach it. Walking distance to anything worth looking at, including had rinn beach for all you full moon revellers ;).... This was the only place we stayed at that actually had big soft beds and there was always something on the menu ...

This is one of our favorite resort out of our trip to Thailand. They first pick you up in a modified golf cart truck with benches on top and cart you to the lobby and rooms. The buildings all blend in perfectly with the trees keeping a natural look to everything. The resort was very nature friendly compared to some of the resorts in Koh Samui. The staff was su...

The staff is the nicest there is...we've been in a couple of resorts in koh phangan including annatra and kupu kupu ... This one is the best the beach is not great for swimming but its amazingly beautiful...and the resturant is not that great but the staff is amazing and the breakfet is very good. We'll defiantly return next year

a few of us travelled around thailand for a few weeks and we wanted to stay somewhere nice in koh phangan during the half moon party. this resort out did every expectation, it was amazing! very clean rooms which you would pay alot of money for anywhere in the world, huge comfy bed, high ceilings and lovely view of the private beach. the beach was lovely and quiet and ...

This is our best experience in Thailand during our 3 weeks here! The staff is fantastic and unbelievable friendly! A hide away from the Haad Rin area. 100m from the hotel you have Koh Maa and a fantastic beach, another small resort next door with great thaifood! We had a deluxe room which were very spacious with a big terrace, the only thing is that you don't have a ...

The first thing that struck me about Milky Bay was the space between and the sheer size of the villas. We stayed in Villa and if you are tossing up between a villa and a normal room I urge you to splash out and get this style of room, worth every penny. Everything from the second/day bed in the corner, the couches, the spacious bathroom... having stayed in a few differ...

We arrived at the Koh Phangan jetty and rented a 4x4 car for about USD 40 per day. The resort does provide pickup service from the jetty (chargeable per person per way) but if you have more than 4 persons it is better to rent a 4x4 car. The distance from the jetty to the resort is quite far but the traffic and road condition is consider good except that you need to dri...

I spent a week travelling around Koh Phangan and this was my favourite hotel. From the minute we arrived, we loved our time at the hotel. The hotel layout is clever and inviting. The staff were genuinely welcoming and friendly - all leading to a great atmosphere which is so hard to find. The hotel sits beside some of the most expensive hotels on Koh Phangan but has a m...

We stayed in a Garden Hut for 4 nights. The huts have recently been renovated and further renovation works are ongoing (Mar19 - not really noticeable as the work is carried out behind a green panel fence). The hut was functional with large double bed (2 singles together) nice new bathroom, quiet AC unit. No fridge in room but reception will provide ice box free of char...

my favorite place to stay in koh phangan but not ideal for long term more than 4 days. the rooms are basic, some bungalows have flushable toilets ( some you have to pour water on it but at least it's not a squat toilet). it's supposed to be eco friendly so there is no hot water but totally tolerable. beware as some of the bathrooms have no proper insulation so mosquito...

I would highly recommend Sunset Hill Resort to anyone staying in Koh Phangan. I have stayed in many many hotels and resorts not only in Thailand but throughout south east asia and I can easily say without any exaggeration the staff in this resort provided me with the best experience and level of customer care I have ever had. Yes the rooms were beautiful, clean and c...

The hotel is quite isolated from the urban parts in Koh Phangan but this is just perfect if you're looking for a nice place to relax. The hotel has a sort of private beach. We stayed in Supreme Deluxe and it was elegantly appointed. It was really spacious and clean. The bathroom was huge with big spa bath and we had a very long relaxing and perfect bath. The bed was al...

Every stuff person is so nice - they smile every second and is very helpful even some of them don't speak english well. The food in a restaurant is very good - we tried a lot of restaurants and street food in Thailand, but Tom Yum Kung soup and chilli red fish were the best in here. Hotel managers are very friendly, they offer a bike (booked from friends), booked a boa...

Location: near to the sea, stunning view and you can do laundry and rent scooter next to the bungalows. The location is relaxed but not too low. Food: you can do breakfast, lunch and diner very good. We’ve just had Thai cuisine for dinner, which was really delicious!! But you can have western cuisine as well. Breakfast was good too and also various. Accomandation: We s...

You can not find a better place to stay in Koh Phangan!! It is on the beautiful Had Rin (sunrise beach) on which the full moon parties are held, but it's on the opposite end of the beach and therefore still quiet enough to get some sleep when you need it. It's central to everything in Koh Phangan but it still feels like you have your own piece of the island even in Pe...

This is without a doubt the best place I stayed in Thailand!! Booked here for a few days post-full moon party, there's still loads to do in Koh phangan, I recommend the waterfall party!! The resort is a bit of a walk up to it so maybe not the best place for people with walking difficulties but the views are amazing! It's so hard to believe you're only a few mins awa...

absolutely loved beyond the blue horizon resort in koh phangan. away from haad rin (full moon party area) it was so quiet and peaceful. the staff there lek and the manager ben are the most hospitable people who always welcome you and are happy to help you out. ben's english is really good too so communicating is really easy.

From the moment we stepped off the ferry we were welcomed by a member of staff from the resort and transferred free The resort itself is spectacular with breath taking views from the top of one of Koh Phangans mountains Our room was lovely with beautiful sea views, clean , comfortable and a great size with a wonderful balcony. All the staff were brilliant and they ma...

I had a brief stay here so didn't get a major impression of the services, staff, etc. Overall it was good value, though I stayed in other places in Koh Phangan that were the same price for nicer rooms. I booked the Standard Bungalow which was actually across the street from the main hotel area, reception, and beach. The standard bungalows were pretty basic, and if stay...

This place has really gave us amazing experience as we were there with kids (7,5,3 and 1 year old) the pool is just amazing. It has different layers so you don't have to always swimm in deep water. The beach is clean, very smooth sand and not busy. In the night we could hear some music but not really loud and that was ok. In this resort is no restaurant or bar but nex...

Delight resort is a really nice place right in the middle of Had Rin. Close to everything and only about 5 minute walk to the ferry at Had Rin port. The beach was two minutes away. The staff was super friendly and helpful, very nice and kind. The room is spacious and has hot water and aircon. The pool area is really beautiful as well, which was lucky as the winds wer...

I got a room on the 2nd floor with a window directly to the sea, which is awesome. I really enjoyed the room. The place itself (reception, overall hotel, pool etc') also looks amazing! The location of the hotel is also great, I moved by foot (I do take a bike in other locations) because everything is nearby. The main full moon beach (Cactus, Haad Rin) is about 10 mi...

The Bayshore was absolutely stunning! This was me and my sis first time to Thailand and we loved our stay here in koh phangan. We were in Thailand for 3 weeks. we stayed here 3 nights in beginning of February during half moon party. We are both close to 30 years old and enjoyed the vibe here. Not too young, not too old. Didn't see any kids/ families during our stay eit...

Haad Son Resort is one of the best place in Koh Phangan where you can enjoy a beautiful, clean and quiet beach... Moreover, they have this bay where we can jump and swim with a school of colorful fishes. The staffs are friendly and helpful. They will give us some bread to feed the fishes. Oo, my kids love it. We love it and will definitely be coming back again to this ...

Had a not-so-good hotel in Bangkok and was kind of thinking this would be worse. Turned out to be the best part of our trip in Thailand. Did a stupid mistake booking twice and despite the no refund policy, they did give me back my money. Location is very close to a lot of restaurants, bars, convenience stores, bike rentals, etc yet not noisy. Place is peaceful and rel...

One of the most nice places in Koh Phangan. Tranquolity and chillout flyes in the air at Loifa resort. Staff is briliant. Resort is cozy and nnice just on the secluded small beach in Sritanu. Perfect breakfast, beutifull garden, two pools.... sure we come back again. Thanks Loyfa

We are in Koh Phangan for the Fullmoon party, we booked our hotel quite late, but this hotel is beyond expectation! The service is excellent, the spa in the hotel is a must try, because its definitely worth of money. And the location is superb, its only 5 mins walk to the full moon party beach but you won't hear the noise at all after back in the hotel at 3 am while th...

great hotel on the nicest beach on koh phangan. rooms are very basic but the great price makes it value for money when you take into consideration the pool (with swim up bar), location on the beach and good restaurant. would stay here again. just watch on for jetski in koh phangan (not related to hotel). take photos of them before you go out, with the owner in the p...

We travelled 3weeks in Thailand, we spent 6 days in Koh Phangan in the resort and we had the nicest experience in Thailand. Even the standard room was very comfortable and very clean. Great location, beautiful beach, good restaurant with a bbq on the beach every evening and extremly friendly and competent staff!!!! I highly recommend the resort, we would come back ag...

It was just a shirt stay but leaves us with so many sweet memory. Travelling to the resort itself might be a little tiring - we thought we just need to take a cab once we are at koh phangan, but actually it's a can + boat taxi. But the bumpy journey get rewarded once we enter the resort lobby withthe warm hospotalization from the taff, and even conforating when we have...
Cheapest hotels in Koh Phangan

We planned to stay 4 days and ended up being there nearly 2 weeks! The fan bungalow gives you all you need. Comfy beds, spacious bathroom with good hot showers, in room safe, enough space on hangers or shelves to put your stuff away. Little balcony where you can relax in your own hammock. All bungalows are located in a very green garden! The best thing about Shiralea ...

Koh Phangan probably scores half the points as it is an amazing island in itself. However, take nothing away from Coco Garden Resort. This is an amazing cosy resort just by the beach. The staffs are very welcoming and the food at the restaurant is excellent. We also spent some time at the bar, when Adrian (the owner) asked us to join for a drink. Kudos to him for set...

Group of 4 stayed here after another hotel messed us around at full moon time. Can't comment on price or value for money as Agoda paid for us to instead stay here. We stayed in a family suite which had two rooms and a bathroom. Lots of space, nice area to chill out front. Breakfast was ok. Staff were OK. A bit far from full moon but didn't really like Koh phangan in ge...

My brother and I stayed a few days at Tanouy, and enjoyed its laid-back atmosphere. The staff is what makes this place great. I called them a day before, and they offered to pick us up from the pier (saving $$$ = awesome). They are helpful to any inquires you may have in your trip around Koh Phangan, and they're welcoming of their guests. Note that it's an island so p...

We were in Koh Phangan over the fullmoon party week and therefore booked well ahead of time. We were looking for a place on the beach with a pool and bar that was away from the excessive rabble of Haad Rin. B52 is perfectly situated on a beautiful beach between Tongsala and Baan Tai. The pool is beautiful and the bar is right in the pool with a great selection of drink...

Despite all the vague and negative reviews, I decided to give this place a try, mainly because of price, availability and location for the full moon party. Everywhere has a minimum 3 day stay at full moon, and I wanted to be close to Haad Rin, but not so close to hear the booming bass from the bars all the time. It turned out to be about half way between the Lomprayah ...

I've been stayed in Hacienda Beach Club Resort twice in a month & the fantastic seascape,the great location near town & good facilities are all attract me totally stay in more than a week.Staffs are geart & warm welcome,just near the Tongsala Pier which also center Koh Phangan.I will definitely go back if I visit Koh Phangan again.Highly recommended!!

We arrived a day earlier on Koh Phagnan than planned, so made a one night booking through Agoda. We chose the Sea Sunset based on location near Thong Sala and were extremely pleasantly surprised by what we found. Simple bungalows, but with very comfortable queen sized beds, and a fabulous simple bar. Very friendly, helpful staff. For the price, location and comfort...

I had a lovely stay at Yan Guesthouse. It's a great location close to the beach and Chalokum town, more chilled and relaxed if you don't want to party. Has a kitchen, really good wifi and laundry facilities. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Was a great chilled and relaxed place to stay in the north of phangan without the high price of a bungalow if you're on ...

My bungalow was very simple. A bed, TV, fan and a small bathroom with warm water. It is not very beautiful but then it was 200 THB/night… However, the owner is a very kind and polite lady. She offers a shuttle service to either the first small town or to Thong Sala for free. She provides free Coffee (once a day) and Water (not sure how much) and whatever problem you ...

I came to Koh Phangan for the first time with my boyfriend and we booked a superior room/bungalow. If I had known how amazing this place was I would've booked us longer than 4 nights. The people who run Laemson are so friendly and genuine. Food was also fantastic and everything was so reasonably priced. Another couple friends of ours met us and rented the room next to ...

We loved to stay here with the best beach and beautiful surroundings. The food was good and the staff kind. When we booked we looked for aircondition. And they provide it. BUT NOT between 10 am and 6 pm. We needed it for having a nap during the day. Everything else was very good.

My mom and I visited Limelight Village in mid June. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Limelight is on a beautiful beach with plenty of restaurants and some shops as well. Our unit was very clean with a wonderful bathroom. Limelight is very new. The facilities are modern and up to date. The family running Limelight was extremely nice and welcoming. They were very kin...

if you are going to stay in koh phangan, this is the place to stay, hands down it's the winner, stop looking and just book, but come back and read the rest of this review! i had a hectic trip from hell from patong to koh phangan. including the realisation that i had booked my stay at the well reviewed lighthouse bungalows completely wrong. i had made a mistake whe...

the stay was enjoyable, it's quieter than haad rin or thongsala. if you're looking to get away from it all this is for you, the pool is small but adequate but you are right beside the beach if you prefer a bigger pool ;) the beach is quiet so you won't be bothered by people trying to sell you something every 2 minutes. it is quiet in this area, you don't have the hustl...

We stayed at Haad salad Resort almost 2 Month and we absolutely enjoyed it. The Bungalows are really nice and in a quite surrounding only a few steps to the beautiful beach. The staff is very friendly and Supports if any help is needed. Definetely a great place to stay at koh phangan.

The location was a great perk, we were in walking distance of the food market and lots of shopping as well as right on the beach for good walks and sunsets. Also right next to the pier so you probably should walk from the boat if you don't want to pay 100 Bhat to go for a 1 minute ride. I like that we were in-between haad Rin and haad salad so we could go to the part...

The owners and staff were so friendly, helpful, welcoming, and very hard working. This truly made our stay fantastic. The location is on the beach, quiet, close to pier, town, and conveniences. Food was good and reasonably priced and the kitchen was open from early morning until around 10pm and they were constantly busy. The current owners took over this place a few ...

For me, this was the second time Koh Phangan. The first time, in 2016, we tried a few places and Thai Dee Garden was our favorite. We actually like the north part of the Island a lot more, but we couldn't find a nice affordable place to stay there. We like touring around on a motorbike, so it doesn't really matter where we sleep. Thai Dee Garden has clean bungalows wi...

it's located at the other end of koh phangan, and you'd have to take the taxi boat out to get to the main part of the island. it is cool if you just wanna enjoy a resort stay/ beach vacation. you'd have to get insect repellent before going on the beach though, there are mosquitoes. the staff are very friendly and motherly. they organised transport to the full moon par...

Great place on a really nice beach. It's a bit far from the bars, restaurants and shops of thong sala and haad hin, but it's a good thing if you want peace and quiet. For us it was perfect cause we rented a bike and went everywhere, we didn't mind riding around, even is it took us a bit more to get to some places. (And if you're packing light, renting a bike at thong s...

The best location I stayed at on a 1 month trip. It can only be reached by boat or a dirt track road. Had a really good and relaxed time at Bottle Beach. Very quiet and all you can do is relax. Cut off from the world as there is only one place with wifi. Smile Bungalows is a really nice resort. The 2-storey bungalow has a really nice bathroom, balcony and a bit of sea...

our main purpose in koh phangan was nightlife. we chose this hotel because he was at the beach of the full moon but at the end of it, so it is possible to sleep all the time (no boom boom from the party). we were at the hill side bungalows - the room was big and the balcony was awesome. will come back to this hotel

The Blue Parrot beach resort was an absolute gem, we originally booked 5 nights over Christmas but loved it that much that we decided to stay another 5 nights for new year. The staff were all so friendly and the owners were both lovely and always helpful.The rooms were brilliant and clean and we had no problems at all. The beach was right on the front of the hotel and ...

thou location is abit far, but nevertheless, its near to moonset party at srithanu. its near to haad yao, haad salad, koh ma... remember to visit mama pooh retaurant for dinner, food is nice and at reasonable prices. resort owner and staff are friendly too.

Located right on the beach and just 10 minutes from Haad Rin, I found this spot to be exactly what I was looking for in Ko Phangan. The beach is private and not crawling with tourists, and the property is quiet at night and still easily accessible to all parties and activities around the island. I stayed in a very basic bungalow. It was outdated and could have been cle...

I found this place last minute after arriving to Koh Phangan (like I booked it as we got off the ferry). As soon as we walked into the reception area the lady at the front desk was very friendly! It was very quiet so if you are looking for a party zone this isn't the place but if you are looking for a relaxing quiet room near the beach The Scenery is well worth your mo...

The fishing resort is located about 7 minutes drive from ban tai's main strip out in the jungle. It's secluded location makes for an enjoyable stay, with no disturbance from neighbours. The owner, Win, has a history in customer service in hospitality, and this shows through his exceptional level at which he is willing to satisfy his guests. The food in the kitchen is a...

Wonderful place with incredible sea views , beautiful gardens and a super bar. We booked for 2 nights because it was our first visit of Koh Phangan and we planned to search for something else , but after searching decided to stay, because the place is really wonderful . The hotel grounds are very well appointed, with light and romantic corners, very cozy. Far from the ...

We'd been doing our research for a few days before we finally got round to deciding where to stay in Koh Phangan. So much choice but the other reviews made the decision for us and we booked 4 nights at Koh Phangan Pavilions as part of our honeymoon trip. When we arrived, we were initially concerned about the apartment's proximity to the town/beach however there was...

Amazing resort! The staff are so friendly, and go out of their way to look after guests. Food is excellent, cocktails are perfect. The resort offers a free shuttle into Haad Rin. The rooms are immaculately clean. You won't find better on Koh Phangan. The Cabin is a tropical paradise.

Salad Hut is a little bit far from the town and the activities, but you will have this problem anywhere you stay in Koh Phangan... No one walks anywhere. The Staff at Salad Buri will organize the inexpensive taxi trucks that go everywhere in the island, tours or even motorbike hire... a popular thing to do in this island. Also you can hire canoes, snorkels and Salad Hu...

Chills Resort is a beautiful family owned facility. Located on the Northwest side of Koh Phangan, which means you end up with gorgeous sunset every night. It is a small place and all the bungalows have an ocean view. The food is suburb, as the owner went to one of the most prestigious cooking schools in Thailand and takes pride in everything she cooks.

Fantastic hotel, beautifully decorated and well located in a very peaceful area in Koh Phangan, away from the noise and the crowd. The villas with private pool are unbelievable: it makes you feel like you've rented a whole house and not a hotel room. The service level is extremely high (Apple TV in the room with a wide range of movies and music for free, free liquour a...

We had 6 nights at Kupu Kupu Koh Phangan. Everything, from the small things like bed sheets, night snacks with a little story, every little detail was well thought threw. The staff was amazing.

Traveler impressions of Koh Phangan
Small island you can travel around in one day on motorbike. But with very different beaches, some really very quiet and beautiful, some very busy full of party people.
We went to Phangan on a day trip. I would not recommend it. You have to hire a boat taxi to get out there and once there you are stuck.
5 nights is enough time. U can see the island in 1 day shopping is very basic. It is a very quite island and very relaxing and slow.
It is most famous for its Full Moon party, which sees the area swell with young tourists. Afterwards, the numbers of tourists drops as there is more to do on the other islands which make up the Samuis.
I really enjoyed Koh Phangnan. I found it much more relaxed than Koh Samui, the beaches are nicer and it isn't ruined by mass tourism (yet)
dunno why so many people go there - no good sea and beaches, locals (вurmese) are very unfriedly. i recommend attend only full moon party, that's all.
Its a Beautiful Island with full of Green & beaches,Good for Couples & for the Party only the moon Parties are suggested, the Clubs are & nightlife is not that great nor the activities.
If want to stay calm area, thong sala is the choice, but the beach is not friendly to swim. Have to go to other beach, Haad Rin, Haad Yao, Koh Ma.
Koh Phangan is very big island about 30 minutes far from Koh Samui by high speed catamaran, there are many waterfalls in the national park , many nice beaches ,lots of good restaurants and hotels and lots of parties in this island.
Based on what the locals say, this island receives about 5 - 6 times the no. of tourists during full moon party dates and super peak blocks compared to the rest of peak season.
Great place We intended to do all the islands but came here and made it our base and just visited the others.
Southern Part is Haar Rin Beach full of parties with nice beach but with very craggier road ahead to.
I loved the island of Koh Phangan. Very beautiful beaches, water and warm people. The full moon parties held here are famous, lots of fun! Great place to snorkel, lie in the sun and do nothing.
I loved Koh Phangan. I've been going to Thailand for 15 years and had always steered clear of it because of the reputation of the full moon parties (avoid August apparently).
Beautiful beaches and fun place to party with other tourists, but if you're looking for a Thai culture experience, this is NOT the place to go.
Just visited for my second time and I can say the island is the fasted devolping tourist spot I've ever been to, within 18 months time i feel like it's gone from a chill somewhat foreign feeling island to going and visiting a china town in the U.
Nice Island, not much to do actually besides some highlights, during the full moon parties it's crowded.
Koh Phangan is an Island of Suratthani similar size as Koh Samui but still more natural than Koh Samui People also friendly as a tourist place Beautiful beached especially Thong Nai Pan Beach Manything to explore in Koh Pha Ngan
Koh Phangan has changed a lot over the years, it use to be a place where one could go and relax, take some tail boats around the islands.
Koh Phangan is a nice island in the Gulf of Thailand offering activities for nearly any interest group, dining, sports, nightlife, beaches etc.
Don't hire a bike unless you really have hadalot of experience, the bikes for hire usually have no tread on tyres and there is a lot of sand and gravel on the roads, get songtheaw taxis, they're cheap enough or use a water taxi to get to other beaches
We went for the exciting full moon party at haad Rin and stayed for a couple of more days to watch Koh Phangan.
there are many different parties on the island. jungle party, half-moon party, full-moon party, etc.
One of my favorite places in the world. Whether you want to party hard at the full-moon party or relax at a secluded resort Koh Phangan can offer whatever you want.
It is a little bit expensive for the flight ticket to Koh samui when compared to the other parts of Thailand but it is certainly worth it!
very beautiful Island , if you go to Haad rin and you want a remote beach go to the coco hut beach- beautiful and quiet very close and almost not known to anyone take a trip to Haad sadet waterfalls there are many nice tours sold on every tourist booking shop make sure you take one and go with good camera - if you can , take a waterproof camera and a waterproof bag the boats dont have pier and you need to swim to the boat make sure your stay is either on "halfmoon party or full moon party try to stick to one resturant which doesnt make you sick.
A nice place to visit for the beautiful sandy beaches and great nightlife. would recommend travelling in a group for max.
Good for anybody that looking for quite and some fun when they have an activities i.e. Full moon party, Half moon party, Shiva moon party, Dark moon party or pool party etc.
Its the Ibiza of Thailand, so if you are a family or not interested in all night parties, or being kept awake by them, chose your location well.
Koh Phangan is a great beach in Thailand If you want go to the party that who drink a lot you can go in here.
Koh Phangan's best hotels with breakfast

We arrived at the Koh Phangan jetty and rented a 4x4 car for about USD 40 per day. The resort does provide pickup service from the jetty (chargeable per person per way) but if you have more than 4 persons it is better to rent a 4x4 car. The distance from the jetty to the resort is quite far but the traffic and road condition is consider good except that you need to dri...

The Bayshore was absolutely stunning! This was me and my sis first time to Thailand and we loved our stay here in koh phangan. We were in Thailand for 3 weeks. we stayed here 3 nights in beginning of February during half moon party. We are both close to 30 years old and enjoyed the vibe here. Not too young, not too old. Didn't see any kids/ families during our stay eit...

This is one of our favorite resort out of our trip to Thailand. They first pick you up in a modified golf cart truck with benches on top and cart you to the lobby and rooms. The buildings all blend in perfectly with the trees keeping a natural look to everything. The resort was very nature friendly compared to some of the resorts in Koh Samui. The staff was su...

We are in Koh Phangan for the Fullmoon party, we booked our hotel quite late, but this hotel is beyond expectation! The service is excellent, the spa in the hotel is a must try, because its definitely worth of money. And the location is superb, its only 5 mins walk to the full moon party beach but you won't hear the noise at all after back in the hotel at 3 am while th...

I spent a week travelling around Koh Phangan and this was my favourite hotel. From the minute we arrived, we loved our time at the hotel. The hotel layout is clever and inviting. The staff were genuinely welcoming and friendly - all leading to a great atmosphere which is so hard to find. The hotel sits beside some of the most expensive hotels on Koh Phangan but has a m...

This is our best experience in Thailand during our 3 weeks here! The staff is fantastic and unbelievable friendly! A hide away from the Haad Rin area. 100m from the hotel you have Koh Maa and a fantastic beach, another small resort next door with great thaifood! We had a deluxe room which were very spacious with a big terrace, the only thing is that you don't have a ...

The hotel is quite isolated from the urban parts in Koh Phangan but this is just perfect if you're looking for a nice place to relax. The hotel has a sort of private beach. We stayed in Supreme Deluxe and it was elegantly appointed. It was really spacious and clean. The bathroom was huge with big spa bath and we had a very long relaxing and perfect bath. The bed was al...

by far the best hotel we have stayed in Koh Phangan. the location is the opposite side of the full moon party Haadrin. the view is amazing and the water is more nicer. you don’t have to eat out because their restaurant by the beach is so affordable. Great food specially massamun curry with rice. fresh coconut only 20Baht. super cheap! nearby services available like fam...

Best hotel! The best stuff ever! The hotel is new, the location is great, private beach, quite and also close to everything. The room was so beautiful, like all the hotel and pool. The stuff are so kind and ! nice! For sure I will come back again! The restaurant is the best in Koh Phangan!

a truly wonderful place to stay. very clean, everything new. nice big comfy bed, ac works just fine. very beautiful and modern huts. great pool with sea view. the staff was lovely and very helpful. i absolutely recommend this place! maybe the best in koh phangan ;) only the beach is almost non existant when the tide is high.

Amazing resort! The staff are so friendly, and go out of their way to look after guests. Food is excellent, cocktails are perfect. The resort offers a free shuttle into Haad Rin. The rooms are immaculately clean. You won't find better on Koh Phangan. The Cabin is a tropical paradise.

Fantastic hotel, beautifully decorated and well located in a very peaceful area in Koh Phangan, away from the noise and the crowd. The villas with private pool are unbelievable: it makes you feel like you've rented a whole house and not a hotel room. The service level is extremely high (Apple TV in the room with a wide range of movies and music for free, free liquour a...

a few of us travelled around thailand for a few weeks and we wanted to stay somewhere nice in koh phangan during the half moon party. this resort out did every expectation, it was amazing! very clean rooms which you would pay alot of money for anywhere in the world, huge comfy bed, high ceilings and lovely view of the private beach. the beach was lovely and quiet and ...

Location: near to the sea, stunning view and you can do laundry and rent scooter next to the bungalows. The location is relaxed but not too low. Food: you can do breakfast, lunch and diner very good. We’ve just had Thai cuisine for dinner, which was really delicious!! But you can have western cuisine as well. Breakfast was good too and also various. Accomandation: We s...

After staying 7 days in Koh Phangan for full moon I was looking forward to relaxing poolside at Bluerama. This place is stunning, but if you are looking for a quiet relaxing day by the pool- it is non existent. There are lots of ppl that come outside of the resort and it gets really crowded, especially around sunset. Other than that, everything was great! Reception is ...

we stayed here for 5 nights after a nice relaxing stay on koh tao. we loved baan manali as it was so easy to relax. although the beach isn't ideal for sunbathing and swimming, it is very easy to get a taxi to another beach if you want to on koh phangan and we went to 3 other beaches whilst we were there to see as much of the island as we could. it's a very short walk i...

You can not find a better place to stay in Koh Phangan!! It is on the beautiful Had Rin (sunrise beach) on which the full moon parties are held, but it's on the opposite end of the beach and therefore still quiet enough to get some sleep when you need it. It's central to everything in Koh Phangan but it still feels like you have your own piece of the island even in Pe...

The first thing that struck me about Milky Bay was the space between and the sheer size of the villas. We stayed in Villa and if you are tossing up between a villa and a normal room I urge you to splash out and get this style of room, worth every penny. Everything from the second/day bed in the corner, the couches, the spacious bathroom... having stayed in a few differ...

One of the most nice places in Koh Phangan. Tranquolity and chillout flyes in the air at Loifa resort. Staff is briliant. Resort is cozy and nnice just on the secluded small beach in Sritanu. Perfect breakfast, beutifull garden, two pools.... sure we come back again. Thanks Loyfa

It's hard to find a reasonable place now on the beach in Sri Thanu area. The place is dated and needs a new look. The walls are paper thin and all rooms are attached. For an island like Koh Phangan and in this price range it's a good choice if you're not a light sleeper!

From the moment we stepped off the ferry we were welcomed by a member of staff from the resort and transferred free The resort itself is spectacular with breath taking views from the top of one of Koh Phangans mountains Our room was lovely with beautiful sea views, clean , comfortable and a great size with a wonderful balcony. All the staff were brilliant and they ma...

We travelled 3weeks in Thailand, we spent 6 days in Koh Phangan in the resort and we had the nicest experience in Thailand. Even the standard room was very comfortable and very clean. Great location, beautiful beach, good restaurant with a bbq on the beach every evening and extremly friendly and competent staff!!!! I highly recommend the resort, we would come back ag...

Stayed here a week, and I loved it. Haad Salad is a really nice beach, and the hotel is ideally positioned. A short ride east gets you to Chaloklam which is a jumping off point for taxi boats to some of the more remote beaches. Head south 5 minutes on a motorbike and you're at Haad Yao which is another excellent beach area. Haad Salad itself is quiet, but has quick...

Pros: staff was incredibly nice and helpful. They went above and beyond to make our experience on Koh Phangan a great one. They gave us great tips on where to go and the bar even let me play music from my phone over the sound system. The food was good, although the Thai food was toned down for tourists. The bed was comfortable. We often just stayed on the resort and re...

Nice village, nice house, everything new, very clean, modern and functional. Nice pool too. Location pretty quiet. The only downside was the mattress, hard as hell! I have lived in Thailand for many years so I am aware that the beds here are pretty hard, but this one was like wood! Even my husband who is usually not sensitive to that spent an awful night on this bed. S...

Golden beach resort is a family run resort. Once we arrived, we were warmly welcomed n greeted by the owner. We had a good talk. He shared the interesting things to see with us. The events happening in the area. It was a great start of the day as we talk to the owner. He is also a coin collector. If u have some spare change of ur country currency give it to him. Better...

my favorite place to stay in koh phangan but not ideal for long term more than 4 days. the rooms are basic, some bungalows have flushable toilets ( some you have to pour water on it but at least it's not a squat toilet). it's supposed to be eco friendly so there is no hot water but totally tolerable. beware as some of the bathrooms have no proper insulation so mosquito...
