Ao Prao Resort

One of the oldest upscale properties in the area, Ao Prao, located on the west-coast beach of the same name, is still one of the best. The pretty bungalows here make for quaint little vacation retreats. Rooms have delightful teak furnishings and decor, as well as four-poster beds, and some come with enormous double tubs overlooking the blissful scenery. There are plenty of watersports available and direct beach access; the resort is set within a sprawling tropical garden.
