Beaches West Side

Laem Noi Na แหลมน้อยหน่า

Baan Ploy Sea Resort: From 2500 Bath. 16-room boutique resort. There is a nice seaview, but no beach. "The view from the first floor suite in the main block is superb you can get this for 3-4000 baht a night. The views from the sea villas, accessed by boat from main block are also great, but priced at double or more....", writes rathin100 on tripadvisor.com, where you find very good reviews. See pictures on flickr.com.

Mooban Talay Resort: From 3400 Bath. Located on a 200 meter long private beach at the end of Noi Na Bay with white powdery sand beach. 21 bungalows surrounded by lush tropical garden under the shade of trees. See also Mooban Talay on Facebook. Showers are an issue for the guests: "Showering in the open air with the trees above was WOW especially hearing the birds and geckos", writes simhop on tripadvirsor.com. But Aurelie G. see's it the opposite way: "Shower outside can turn out to be a nightmare. No one can see you, however, if you go there at night, you feel very vulnerable to any animal deciding to "attack" you (e.g. mouse or rats)."
