Havana Resort on Thong Nai Pan Yai

Thong Nai Pan Yai is one of Thailand’s most attractive beaches. It is located in the north east of the tropical island of Koh Phangan. Until a few years ago Koh Phangan was famous only for its monthly lunar party on the beach of Haad Rin Nok. Now the island which is situated just 12 km from Koh Samui has become a holiday destination hotspot.
One of the best value places to stay in Thong Nai Pan Yai if you are looking for luxury accommodation is Havana Resort.

Thong Nai Pan is a double bay. There are two main beaches: The bigger Thong Nai Pan Yai and the smaller beach, Thong Nai Pan Noi. These beaches exemplify all the best qualities of beaches in Thailand. They have white sand and clear warm water. They are good for year round swimming, although the monsoon between October and November makes the sea a bit rough. The beaches are fringed with towering coconut palms and giant granite boulders are scattered throughout the area. Behind rise majestic, tree covered mountains. The whole area is a nature lover’s paradise. There are many birds, tropical flowers and beautiful butterflies to spot, including the rare black eagle that sports in the thermals near the mountains.

Havana Beach Resort offers over 50 rooms in hotel style blocks. Each room has air-con, cable TV, hot water and free tea and coffee. The rooms are tastefully decorated and are generously sized. The Aquarium suite is a bit of an oddity. It has odd blue and white decor that features many fish painted on the walls.

Between the two banks of rooms lies a swimming pool for guests. Just past the swimming pool is a beach bar built from local materials. It is a perfect place to grab a cold drink before heading back to the sea. In the evening there is beachfront dining at the Aash restaurant that features very good Indian food as well as Thai and Western cuisine.

Havana Resort has cut its room rates for 2011 to make it one of the best value luxury accommodation providers in the area. So if you have some holiday due and you want a Thai beach holiday you should look to book Havana Resort in Thong Nai Pan Yai.
