Fodor's Expert Review P. P. Erawan Palms Resort

This is a small, comfortable resort in the middle of Laem Tong Beach, next to the sea gypsy village. The spacious cottages all have wooden floors and ceilings with golden curtains and comforters. The beach bar is great for lazy-afternoon cocktails, and there's a small museum about the sea gypsy community that you can check out when you need a break from the beach.
