Chantaramas Resort
Chantaramas Resort
Beachfront resort on the southwest coast of Koh Phangan, structured around the Chantaramas concept ('golden moon'): 4 villas, 46 rooms, restaurant facing the sea.
Chantaramas Resort occupies the southwest of Koh Phangan, right on the beach and away from the island's main nightlife hubs. The complex brings together 4 villas and 46 rooms around a tropical garden, with a restaurant overlooking the sea.
Why choose Chantaramas Resort
Three elements set this property apart. First, its local roots: the establishment was founded by women native to the island, as a tribute to their childhood home. Second, its coherent architectural concept centred on the "golden moon" (Chantaramas in Thai), which runs through the entire décor. Finally, its calm beachfront location on the southwest coast, well away from the lively beaches on the east side.
The property suits travellers seeking a comfortable beachfront resort, rather than a club or backpacker vibe.
Décor inspired by the golden moon
The Chantaramas concept — "golden moon" — guides all the décor throughout. Lunar motifs appear as subtle touches in common areas and accommodations: crescent-shaped seating in the reception area, door handles drawn with the same theme, warm and dark materials evoking a night sky. The overall effect remains understated, without ornamental excess.
The rooms and villas are organized around a tropical garden that takes up roughly half the grounds: lawns, trees, and exotic flowers structure the flow between buildings.

Dining and services
The Moon Deck restaurant sits right on the seafront. The menu blends Thai specialties with international dishes, with a focus on organic and local ingredients. You can dine in the panoramic dining room or reserve a table directly on the beach. As evening falls, the pool bar serves cocktails at sunset.
For wellness and activities, the hotel offers:
- a main pool and pool bar;
- a hammam and sauna;
- Thai massages delivered by trained therapists;
- a fitness centre equipped with standard machines and free weights.
Location and access
The resort sits on the southwest coast of Koh Phangan, away from the island's main nightlife spots, which are further south and east (around Haad Rin). To reach the property:
- By air: the nearest airport is on Koh Samui, the neighbouring island. From there, you'll need to take a boat to Koh Phangan.
- By ferry from the mainland: departures from Surat Thani to Thong Sala port, the island's main entry point. Chaloklum port in the north can also be used depending on available connections.
Once on the island, arrange a transfer through the hotel, hire a local taxi, or rent a car to reach the resort.
