Vannee Golden Sands Beachfront Resort

Nice pool, close to where we wanted to be, the swimming pool and bar were good, I would stay again but in a normal room rather than a villa.

Large nice room. Huge pool area, room for everyone. Clean, modern hotel which is not always easy to find in Koh Phangnan. The location is good, at least we enjoyed the village but we visited when it was NOT full moon party. I can imagine the village having a complete different vibe during full moon. Very far from places like zen beach but we of course knew that. Local taxi service is available and easy to use but not very comfortable haha. Be aware that the route to haad rin is VERY hilly and dangerous so its not for inexperienced scooter drivers. Hotel staff very nice.

Some places don’t just offer you a stay—they give you an experience. And Valora Vannee Golden Sands Beachfront Resort is one of those rare gems. From the very beginning, the service was outstanding. The staff were warm, attentive, and truly went out of their way to make me feel at home. A shining example of Thai hospitality. The pool with a direct view of the sea was absolutely spectacular. Floating there while the sun dipped into the ocean in a swirl of golden colors was pure magic. The restaurant also provided excellent service, with delicious dishes and kind, attentive staff throughout. The resort is very close to Haad Rin Beach, known for its beauty and the iconic Full Moon Parties—yet the location is peaceful enough for a relaxing escape when you want it. But here’s what really made my experience unforgettable: I accidentally left behind my electric toothbrush, and not only did the staff find it—they kindly and honestly arranged to have it sent all the way to Phuket! That level of honesty and kindness is rare and truly worth highlighting. 🙏 I am so happy and grateful I chose this place. If you’re looking for a perfect blend of comfort, beachfront beauty, and genuinely caring service, this resort is a wonderful choice.

Absolutely amazing hotel! The facilities were beautiful—stylish, clean, and thoughtfully designed. Everything from the pool area to the lounge spaces had a luxurious feel, and the atmosphere was so relaxing. The staff were warm and attentive, and every detail felt well taken care of. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay—would highly recommend and definitely return!

Great location right on the beach & close to all the shops. Helpful staff. Water, fridge, coffee in rooms. Wonderful massage parlour, slightly dearer than if you go outside the hotel. Laundry service 5 minutes walk away. Free taxi rides provided by hotel. Close to shops, restaurants & full moon beach party. Breakfast had an omelette station, cereals, cakes, toast, salad. It was very busy so advise you to go early. Massive pool with elephant features. You must visit the little sweet shop next to the hotel on the beach. Fantastic cocktails, beers, food & so cheap. Enjoyed our stay.
