Only five very special rooms here; all indi-

Private villas perch prettily above
the forest and Khlong Prao, kayaking distance from the beach. The cheaper rooms are a
little faded for the price.

Hat Kaibae
Hat Kaibae has some of the island's best variety of accommodation, from boutique hotels
to budget huts and midrange bungalows. The trade-off is that the beach is only sandy in
parts.
