We stayed in villacha cha here and recommend this as alternative to staying in Ao Nang. Nice beach and sunsets, chill area no noise and cafes along the beach. There’s convenience stores, scooter hire, taxi stand and beauty massage place along the road. Food at villa cha ha is exceptional- very nice cocktails too and buffet breakfast is very big with so many dishes. Nice live music at night and swimming pools at the water edge. Can walk right out to a small island at low tide. Near the Ao Nam Mao pier for trips to Railay and beyond. Hotel has shuttle bus also which is very handy only 15 mins to town and Ao Nang. Loved it here!
