Top 10 Ban Tai Hotels

There are not many varieties of breakfast, but the quality is good. Hotel service is very good. Suitable for people who like quiet people, Koh Phangan is really quiet, and there are very few people in China. Anantara always pays attention to eating, must go to the restaurant on the second floor of the hall, their home ingredients are really very good, and the price is reasonable. It is worth living. Alternatively, the hotel has free kayaking to play. Oh, yes, it may be that the ecological environment in Koh Phangan is so good that there are often lizards.

My husband and I had only booked for 1 night originally but after arriving and being greeted so warmly by Taylor, seeing the beautiful room and swimming in the incredible sea right off the hotel, we extended for 5 days. At the end we still didn’t want to leave. We found this to be the perfect place to relax _ by day we swam, took the kayak to a nearby beach, ate great pizza at the hotel, enjoyed breakfasts cooked to order at the hotel, had beers at sunset and walked to the town in 5 minutes for amazing and inexpensive massages. Regarding restaurants in town, we really enjoyed the French Thai place (Luca?) and the place where there is a sole woman chef. The hotel is owned by an interior decorator and the rooms are decorated with great attention to detail. The beds and pillows were so comfortable. The hotel is small and quiet -only the sounds of the ocean at night. It’s wonderful to hear the rain on the roof as well. We enjoyed our days and nights so much we didn’t even rent a scooter to explore the east side of the island. We coupled our stay here with a hotel near the full moon party beach and I feel the juxtaposition of the 2 experiences was perfect. We are already discussing when we can return to Sand in My Shoes. It’s a must_ whether you are solo, a couple or a family with 3 kids. Kudos to Taylor and the owner- well done! Also, we are beach snobs and this was hands down one of the most spectacular beaches we have ever been to _ the sand, the water, the waves. Perfection.

We stayed beginning of August in a Garden room with terrace. Apart from the Full Moon Party days, it is a very friendly and relaxed hotel with a touch of simple class. Chilled out beach setting with sunbeds, chairs and beanbags. Not too far from Haad Rin but also far enough... Rooms are a good size, clean, bright, cool and with a good selection of bathroom items, fresh water and a stocked minibar (not too expensive). The restaurant is good with a lot of choice and the best breakfast we've had in Thailand so far. We had a BBQ night and a film night while we were there - nice bonuses.

Breakfast category is not particularly rich, but enough. Very quiet and beautiful place, the staff is enthusiastic but not overly disturbing, the room is large, the insects are in place, the ecology is good, but no small animals will appear. The invincible sunset can be enjoyed without leaving home. Free canoes are provided. The hotel's shallow water is not deep and the waves are calm. Will choose to stay again next time!

The house gave me a very good impression. It felt cool when I entered the first day. The space on the first floor was open, and the glass in front of it was glass, revealing the clear pool and the sea in the distance. My family and I have a pleasant experience here. The location of the house is not too good, there is no shop nearby, but we rented a motorcycle when we went out. It is convenient to have a car. So this is not enough. We also book breakfast on the morning of the last day. A few aunts came over and made a table in half an hour. We will choose the next time there is a chance.

Very nice hotel, with an incredible private beach. The resort is big and located in the middle of a hill, so a golf cart is needed to take you to your room. The rooms are not modern but are very comfortable. The staff is kind and the service is good.

The resort is directly on the beach. My room had reached 3 people and was only about 10 metres from the beach. All was clean and beautiful. We were well provided all the time. And that even before we were there. The staff member at the reception was always there for us from booking and has solved any problem. It always likes it. Minihug to La😜

Overall the hotel was nice but in several point not what we expected: We booked a „villa with sea view“. There was no sea view at the villa that was assigned to us. You couldn’t see the sea neither from within the villa nor from the pool nor from the sun beds nor from the outside bath tub. The only way to see a glimpse of the sea was to stand up on a certain spot on the terrace. That’s not what we expected from a room advertised as „with sea view“ and the (trip.com) booking page also suggested otherwise. When we complained, we got assigned another villa where we could see the sea partly. Thank you for that. However, the manager told us that the photos from the booking page were in fact another villa. But it's not my responsibility to make sure that the photos and pictures provided on booking pages are correct. The hotel has to take care of that! This holds also true for the next issue: The gym was closed due to renovation. In the booking process, they advertised a huge fitness center with lots of machines. Now it’s shut down and we did not get any information about this. The „mini gym“, which does not even have at least one multi exercise machine, is nothing but a bad joke and no replacement at all for a proper gym! Again the staff told us they would inform about this on their website. When I checked that, I still found the photos of the large gym on their own website. It was just called ”mini gym”. But how am I supposed to know what they mean by that and that the provided photos are no longer correct??
