Description

SeaEsta Beach is a 3-star resort in Ban Tai, Koh Phangan, 4.8 km from Thong Sala, with bungalows beside the sand.

The Superior Bungalow also has a separate living room.

The on-site restaurant and beach bar serve meals, fruit shakes and cocktails, and breakfast choices include continental, vegetarian, vegan and Asian options. On the beach, sun loungers, umbrellas and bean bags face the sea. SeaEsta Beach also offers complimentary seasonal yoga classes, a tour desk, ticket bookings and taxi services, along with snorkelling, diving and canoeing. Free private parking and WiFi are available, and a complimentary pick-up from Thong Sala pier helps with arrival. The resort accepts cash only.
