Phangan Island Part 3
Go to the northeast of Koh Phangan ~ the wealthy area "Thong Nai Pan Noi" where all the five-star hotels are concentrated on this beach
Accommodation: Santhiya Koh Phangan Resort & Spa
The room is about 26 pings (one bedroom and one living room), with a sea view balcony and an outdoor jacuzzi. I have to praise the king size bed, which is the deepest and most comfortable bed I have ever slept on, and the pillow is just the right softness and hardness.
The toilet design is particularly amazing, it is a semi-open space. I thought there would be mosquitoes at night, but surprisingly there weren't any. It makes people feel at ease and can be one with nature when taking a shower or defecating at night.
Breakfast is also an important part of the hotel. The 180-degree beach view is the basic configuration. There are ten kinds of fruit in the fruit area alone (ice cream-style refrigerator). The red apples are peeled half for you, and the oranges are peeled and cut in half. There are about eight kinds of cheese and seven choices of drinks. Various hot and cold coffees can be made free of charge.
In addition, the service is impeccable. As soon as you enter the lobby, service staff will actively assist you with service. Every staff member will put their hands together and say "three bowls of low calories" when they see customers. They didn't even take the bedside tip that had been left for three days (maybe they thought 100 was too little! "
There are different themes and styles for dinner every day, and the happy hour is the latest I have seen so far, from 11pm to 12pm.
Food: I was worried that the prices in this area would be outrageous, but I didn't expect that there was a whole strip of elegantly decorated restaurants and roadside snacks on the beach right outside the hotel. The roadside snacks, such as fruit shakes, were all 50 yuan, and the meals were 70-100 yuan. Some of the prices in the restaurant are quite affordable, and you won’t feel the prices in wealthy areas at all. The service staff are all super enthusiastic and smiling.
The basic Thai massage is 400 for 90 minutes, and the foot massage is 300/1 hour. I also tried the hotel's 2500/150 minute luxury spa. The scenery, service, and refreshments before and after are so good (conclusion: try it once)
Living in this area means relaxing with a massage every day, enjoying the resort's vast beach and sea views, high-end services and facilities, and achieving a paradise-like life.
