On the sands of a half-moon shaped bay, Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan Villas is a secluded retreat on the island’s quieter north-east coast. Every one of the suites and villas have been cleverly designed to blend seamlessly with the area’s natural beauty – though there’s no compromise on luxury as they all come with private pools and welcome little extra including Nespresso machines and a home theatre with Apple TV. Exceptionally well-run you’ll find sun beds on the beach, complimentary kayaks and paddleboards and a delicious mix of home-style and contemporary Thai dishes including mango crème brûlée at Bistro @ The Beach. If you want to explore, the resort can arrange jungle treks and speedboat island hopping cruises.
