Erawan Palm is a small, comfortable resort in the middle on 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 is a small museum about the sea gypsy community that you can check out when you need a break from the beach. Pros: relaxed resort feel; interesting museum. Cons: boat ride away from main village; decor shows some age.
