Khao Phanom Bencha National Park

Loved it. Beautiful quiet and quaint

Nice little touches throughout stay. Quieter location. Beachfront walks every day to breakfast. We had a pool villa and pool was used every day. Complimentary iced teas after swimming, staff helpful & welcoming. Breakfast really good. Small hotel with plenty of space so loungers and hammocks, kayaks always available. Italian restuarant good. Not the cheapest but this place justifies its price well overall. We had an enjoyable stay. An example of a trip was private long tail boat for 5 hours to 4 islands with water, fruit and coconus (not lunch) for 3 people for about £125 which we thoroughly enjoyed. Sort of missed being closer to things, but taxi to Ao Nang shopping and choice of eateries 15 mins and about 500 Baht. Never really bothered to find the other local restuarants along the beach. When the walk to breakfast is through lovely tropical garden, it's pleasant. A mango fell off a tree on the last day right in front of us, we'll see if we can ripen it at home if we get it past customs.

Cannot fault anything
