Morning Star Resort  

On Koh Phangan’s Ban Kai / Ban Tai white-sand stretch, Morning Star Resort sits beachfront with quick access to island nightlife. It’s minutes from Ban Thai and Tong Sala and about a 10-minute drive to the famous Full Moon Party at Haad Rin.

A recently renovated resort with modern beachfront bungalows and 17 guestrooms. Rooms feature private balconies, refrigerators, minibars, satellite/plasma TVs, safes and electric kettles, with daily housekeeping. The place blends subtle luxury, natural beach views and easy sand-to-pool living.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool (and indoor options listed), relax at the spa and massage room or rent a bicycle to explore the shore. Expect a beach bar, poolside bar, beachfront restaurant, gift shop and tour desk. Kids get a playroom and there are karaoke, picnic and BBQ areas for group fun — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and walk straight onto the sand.

Express check-in and check-out, dry cleaning/laundry and luggage storage are available. A ferry terminal shuttle is provided and free self-parking is onsite. Complimentary wireless internet is offered across the property.

The beachfront restaurant serves meals with a garden view and a bar/lounge vibe. There’s also a poolside bar and a beach bar, plus room service during limited hours. Breakfast is served daily and a daily guest reception brings people together.
