Fodor's Expert Review Barcelona Resort

For very few baht you get a private cottage on Haad Yuan with doors on two walls that unfold to reveal a wraparound deck. Every cottage, large or small, is on a hillside overlooking the powdery beach. Rooms are simple, with fans and mosquito nets, but slightly larger and breezier than your average beach bungalow. Haad Yuan, on Koh Phangan's southeastern coast, is a 10-minute boat ride away from Haad Rin.
