Seaflower Bungalows

Every room at Seaflower Bungalows has a private bathroom with a shower, toiletries, towels, a hair dryer and an electric kettle. The rooms are bungalows, villas and suites, most with air conditioning and a private entrance, and several have a sea view while others have a garden view.

King, queen, double and single beds are available across the rooms, and some rooms give direct access to the pool. Depending on the room, guests can have a king bed, a double bed, a pair of queen beds or a single-and-double set-up. Bathtubs, balconies and a flat-screen TV are found in individual rooms rather than in all of them.

The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a terrace, along with restaurants on site, a bar with happy hour and a coffee shop. Non-smoking rooms are available, English is spoken, and the public areas have air conditioning.

For activities, the hotel offers snorkelling, canoeing, fishing and non-motorised water sports, along with tours, on-site entertainment and an on-site golf course. A shuttle service, luggage storage, safe deposit boxes and ticket services are also offered.

Free parking is available, and free Wi-Fi covers all rooms while the public areas have Wi-Fi too. The reception is open daily from 08:00 until 21:30, and a doctor or nurse is on call.

Seaflower Bungalows is on Ko Pha-ngan, an island in the Gulf of Thailand with no road link to the mainland or to Ko Samui, so the last part of the journey is by boat. The hotel stands in the Haad Chao Phao area, with the beach of the same name 250 m away, and the setting is green, with the island's hills rising inland. The bay suits guests who want the sea close at hand. The nearest airport is Samui Airport on Ko Samui, 26.7 km away across the water.

Haad Son Beach is the next stretch of sand, 350 m away, and Wat Sri Thanu, a Buddhist temple near Ao Sri Thanu bay, lies 1.2 km away. A local food market sits nearby for everyday meals and snacks, and the Wang Sai waterfall is a longer outing on the island. Getting around Ko Pha-ngan is by road, and the hotel offers a shuttle service.

A good day from here can start with a swim at Haad Chao Phao, continue with snorkelling or a canoe trip, and end at the Sunset Low Tide Viewpoint, a coastal lookout 2.9 km away. Evenings can be spent at the bar, which has a happy hour.
