On the island of Koh Yao Noi, roughly an hour by boat from Phuket, Koh Yao Seaview Bungalow sits on the edge of a tranquil Andaman Sea beach. The property brings together six teak wood bungalows facing out to sea, in a corner of the island that remains untouched by large-scale tourism infrastructure.

Why stay here

Koh Yao Noi retains a rural rhythm, with rice paddies, rubber plantations, and fishing villages. Koh Yao Seaview Bungalow embraces this spirit: a modest family-run property, without pretension, with open views across Phang Nga Bay and its limestone peaks. The address suits travelers seeking a peaceful beach stay, ideal for swimming, kayaking, or reading on a private balcony, rather than nightlife and activities.

Atmosphere

The property features six teak wood bungalows arranged near the beach. Architecture remains understated, built with local materials and individual balconies. The welcome is warm and family-oriented, and moderate guest numbers mean a peaceful atmosphere even during high season. The property welcomes children of all ages; however, pets are not accepted.

The bungalows

The six teak wood bungalows are air-conditioned and fitted with panoramic balconies. Each unit includes:

• a double bed with mosquito net;
• a refrigerator;
• a tiled bathroom with hot and cold water;
• complimentary Wi-Fi, also available in common areas.

Some family bungalows can accommodate 3 to 6 people, making them a practical choice for groups or extended families.

Dining and services

The on-site restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The menu features Thai and European cuisine, focusing on fish and seafood brought in by local fishermen. Note: breakfast is not included in the room rate.

The team organizes several activities on-site: fishing, snorkeling, canoeing and kayaking, and boat excursions to nearby islands including Koh Nok and Pak Bia. A bike rental service also allows guests to explore the island's interior at their own pace, among rice paddies, rubber plantations, and hamlets.

Access and location

Address: Ko Yao Noi, Ko Yao District, Phang-nga 82160, Thailand.

Two main departure points serve the island:

• from Phuket: Bang Rong pier on the east coast, with regular departures throughout the day;
• from Krabi and Ao Nang: boarding at Talan Pier, with variable schedules depending on the season — it is recommended to check in advance.

Upon arrival at Ban Tha Kao pier, a complimentary shuttle service run by the property takes guests directly to the bungalows.

Around the area

Koh Yao Noi invites leisurely exploration: bike rides between villages, walks on pristine sandy beaches, water buffalo watching in the rice fields, kayaking through mangroves. Boat trips provide access to nearby islets such as Koh Nok and Pak Bia, as well as the limestone landscapes of Phang Nga Bay.
