Loyfa Nature Resort, Koh Phangan, Thailand

Loyfa Nature Resort a has 20 rooms and a big plot of land with its own small beach and a full variety of different bungalows, mostly on the hillside, some on the beach, all with great views. You can rent fair-sized rooms with fans, concrete ones with seaviews and there are some larger bungalows on the beach. All bungalows come with private bathroom, seaviews, balcony and a friendly smile.

Laem Srithanu is a volcanic island that has been joined to Koh Phangan by a strip of coconut pasture that meets with the village of Srithanu. It has formed a fertile peninsula that lies between the bays of Ao Hin Kong and Ao Srithanu, thus the small and secluded beaches that populate its coastline are closer to the coral reef, leading to virtually year round swimming. At low tide its possible to circum-navigate Laem Srithanu and find your own little piece of paradise, perfect for secluded sunbathing or finding a good spot for fishing off the rocks.

There is a laid back and unique atmosphere to the area, partly as Laem Srithanu is almost its own island and because there are only five resorts on the peninsula. Quiet though it is, action is not far away in the 'mainland' village of Srithanu, only a 500-metre walk through the coconut groves.

:: ACCOMMODATION ::

Loyfa Nature Resort is a family-run bungalow resort and the business has been running for years, so you can expect a warm welcome and excellent standards. The resort is bang on top of the mountain with panoramic views around Srithanu bay. The bungalows are all well-spaced and set around lush tropical gardens to keep a feeling of privacy.

The bungalows come in two styles; the older and always popular traditional island hut, or the modern concrete bungalow which tend to be larger inside. Most are suitable for up to 2 people, but there are a few larger bungalows with 2 beds that can take between 3-4 people.
