Phayamas Private Beach Resort

Tucked on a private stretch of Aow Hin Khaw beach on Koh Phayam in Ranong, this adults-only beach hotel sits right by the sea. It's minutes from Ko Phayam Pier, Bang Ben Beach and Aow Khao Kwai Beach, with Wat Ko Phayam, Ko Kham and Hin Talu close by.

Eighteen individually furnished rooms—air-conditioned and fan options—each with a private balcony and pool or sea glimpses. Rooms feature rainfall showers, bidets, complimentary toiletries, bottled water and daily housekeeping, plus 24/7 electricity and free Wi‑Fi.

Private beach, outdoor pool, poolside bar and beach bar set the tone. Relax at the full-service spa, hit the 24-hour fitness center, or mingle at the daily complimentary reception. There’s a terrace, garden, picnic and barbecue area, plus an arcade/game room and tour/ticket assistance—wake up to sea-breeze mornings and salt-air afternoons.
