Older bungalows are a mish-
mash of bamboo and dark wood, while several rounded air-con rooms have a cave theme
- it's all very
Flintstones.
This is as far south as you can get on Sairee, at the end of a
skinny motorbike path, with a groovy bar and lush beach right out front and not too much
of a racket.

bungalows 1000-4800B; )
Another place with a huge
mix of lodging from simple wood bungalows to hotel-style rooms in a block. This is a
busy resort with nicely tended grounds but we found the prices out of whack with what
you can find elsewhere. It's a good backup that welcomes divers and non-divers.

Honeymooners will delight in this unique option -
several private luxury villas nestled in the leaf-clad hills with sweeping ocean views down
below. A private plunge pool is standard - naturally - and private chef services are avail-
able for those who choose to remain in their love nest instead of sliding down to Sairee for
restaurant eats. It's about a 15-minute walk or five-minute taxi ride from this hilltop loca-
tion to Sairee Beach.

; bungalows 5300-14,000B; )
This prime piece of
quiet beachside property offers timber-framed villas and crinkled white adobe huts with
woven roofs dotted along the boulder-strewn beach and up the hill. Paths wind through
the fern-laden, manicured jungle. The private villas are one of the more upscale options
on the island although service isn't quite yet on par with what you'd hope for in this price
bracket.
