Location & what to see
Koh Yao Yai is an island in Phang Nga Bay, part of Koh Yao District in Phang Nga province, and it is reached by boat from Phuket. Its coast is lined with small villages and fishing harbours, and the pace is far slower than on the busy beaches of Phuket. For a calm stay by the sea, the island offers a very different setting from the big resort areas on the main island.
Laem Had Beach lies 2.4 km away, and a viewpoint at Laem Had is 3.9 km from the resort, two good places for an afternoon out. Chong Lard Pier, 4.3 km away, is one of the ferry terminals nearby, since the boat is how guests get on and off the island. Phuket International Airport, 33.7 km away, is the nearest airport, and the journey from it combines road and boat.
A day could start with a walk to the Laem Had viewpoint, then a swim at the resort's private beach, with snorkelling, diving and fishing offered for those who want to go out on the water. The viewpoint and the beach make a simple half-day, and the garden and solarium at the resort are good places to rest in between. In the rainy months, rough seas can affect boat trips.
What guests say
Travellers rate the service (9.1) and the cleanliness (9.0) most highly, with the location and the value for money both at 8.7.
