Hotels near Haad Yuan Beach in Koh Phangan

Overall the hotel was nice but in several point not what we expected: We booked a „villa with sea view“. There was no sea view at the villa that was assigned to us. You couldn’t see the sea neither from within the villa nor from the pool nor from the sun beds nor from the outside bath tub. The only way to see a glimpse of the sea was to stand up on a certain spot on the terrace. That’s not what we expected from a room advertised as „with sea view“ and the (trip.com) booking page also suggested otherwise. When we complained, we got assigned another villa where we could see the sea partly. Thank you for that. However, the manager told us that the photos from the booking page were in fact another villa. But it's not my responsibility to make sure that the photos and pictures provided on booking pages are correct. The hotel has to take care of that! This holds also true for the next issue: The gym was closed due to renovation. In the booking process, they advertised a huge fitness center with lots of machines. Now it’s shut down and we did not get any information about this. The „mini gym“, which does not even have at least one multi exercise machine, is nothing but a bad joke and no replacement at all for a proper gym! Again the staff told us they would inform about this on their website. When I checked that, I still found the photos of the large gym on their own website. It was just called ”mini gym”. But how am I supposed to know what they mean by that and that the provided photos are no longer correct??

Stayed here for 3 days, think it's family run lodge. The hotel room key was really a key, a big one. The door creaked when opening but overall the room was nice, amenities was good. When requested for a kettle, the kind old lady provided me very fast....very nice. Pity did not make use of the swimming pool as it was hot for 2 of the days there. A short walk to a food court nearby, Thongsala Square (where the race start)...and the Walking Street where they had a nice night bazaar on Saturday, pity it rained halfway. Also a short walk to Phantip Market area. But definitely need taxi to the site of Full Moon Party lol Yes, also had a lot of tour agencies just outside the hotel. And laundry services, I did mine at a cheap 80 baht...and it came back ironed and with a nice fragance ...Highly recommended. (ok, they do have some self service laundry too at 30 bht per kg??? but definitely not ironed??)

It was very beautiful and I was satisfied. I would like to come back and stay again when I can relax. We especially recommend relaxing by the pool. It's also connected to the ocean, so I think it's a good idea to play on the beach during the season.

We booked as it was close to KBA kitesurfing and it was a great find. We had a bungalow on the beach with a veranda overlooking the restaurant/bar and beach. The room was everything we needed, the big steps down to the bathroom can be a little challenging in the dark at night. The staff were really helpful and friendly and the loungers on the beach are great to hangout and chill. There is a restaurant on site but also plenty of places to walk to or short ride on a motorbike

Lovely little resort with a private beach, great for a couple's vacation. We stayed in a pool view room - considered beach view but considering you're right on the water, no need! Staff was so friendly and lovely, from the front desk to the restaurant staff. The part of the island that Buri Rasa is on is rather remote -- not like the southern and western parts, where there's more of a little town with more food options -- so I would recommend this area largely for beach lounging and relaxing, rather than a more active vacation. (It's not hard to get to other parts of the island via taxi [or scooter, but we didn't try that] but time-consuming and not super cheap.)

The best buffet breakfast. With a restaurant overlooking the sea. The pool is located in an area with access to the sea, which means that you can choose to sunbathe upstairs by the pool or on the sun loungers on the sand.

We had a lovely stay here, the staff were very friendly and always willing to help. The beach is right outside, lots of lovely restaurants and bars just down the road. Rooms are spacious although a little shabby. There were also ants which we couldn’t seem to get rid of.

Grab a coffee, this could take a while. Bed sheets were filthy and smelt like an old dogs bed. TV was an old tube type that couldn’t get channels (although brochure said flat screen with cable) The toilet was constantly blocked. In 7 nights (our length of stay) our room was cleaned once. So no drinking water. No toilet roll. No fresh towels. Our booking consisted of breakfast, but once was enough, only had half of what we requested and the staff were rude, so we ate in a bar up the road instead. The electric kept going off so no air con. They did agree to fix it but not until the following day! No hot water. Then we discovered the new villas behind the bar area, which is what we had in fact booked. We insisted we be moved which the staff agreed to, begrudgingly!! We get to our new room where there was in fact a flat screen TV but no aerial so unless you have your own subscriptions you are stuck with sky news! Bed smelt better but we woke up to an army of ants!! Location is perfect. That is the only positive I can give!! Extremely disappointed! I travel for a month around Asia every year, this is our 4th hotel this year and by far the worst I have ever stayed in. That includes the others I’ve stayed in over the years!! Booking.com should take some responsibility for misleading information!!!

This was the best hotel I stayed in Koh Phangan. Bryan in reception is AMAZING. This man deserves a raise. He really went above and beyond to help me get back a pair of shoes I left in a taxi. All of the staff was wonderful, especially the hard-working guys in the restaurant. Koko greeted me each morning at breakfast with my coconut coffee. I had the best massage and facial at the spa with Lin. I’ve been dreaming about it ever since I left! I stayed in the beachfront villa which was perfect. I loved being able to walk straight out the door (climbing over the rocks) and into the sea. Watching the sunset each night was beautiful. It’s an easy walk to shops and restaurants nearby if you don’t rent a scooter. This section of beach is very peaceful. I’m looking forward to staying here again!

The structure is beautiful and the landscape, especially at sunset, is wonderful, the bed was very comfortable and the evening quiet was dreamlike! How I miss him.... However, two notes must be made: Just 1 towel per person is really little. I have long hair and when I got out of the shower I didn't have another towel to tie it up. Unfortunately I forgot my bathrobe at home so I had to use the one at the pool. I asked for a second one but the following day it wasn't given back to me and having been told that they only give 1, I didn't ask again but it was really inconvenient. Also they will only replace 1 towel per guest and not the other. Having a wet towel the next day is not good, it has never happened to me. The pool was in a terrible state when we arrived. The water was green, dirty and disgusting. We waited to see if anyone would clean but the following day still nothing. We reported this to reception, they gave a semi-clean but it still wasn't in order. On the third day we finally managed to use it but out of 4 days, 2 we only looked at it and it's not good. There is the sea but given the presence of lethal cube jellyfish in the rainy season, I don't risk my life and I prefer the swimming pool since the only protection nets against jellyfish are in Haad Rin. There is no wine shop as in the photo but given the island we understood why. If we had had the chance to speak to the owner we would have said everything in person but maybe that will be for another time because it is a fabulous place and we will definitely be back! Breakfast was not bad but little choice for vegans.
