Can anyone recommend a quiet place with no late night parties or loud music or anything for familes with small children and babies? Ours will be 1 and a half if we go in April. We're looking at Ko Pha Ngan but are open to other places. Thanks!
There are bungalows in Haad Rin. Sunset beach has quite a few. The cheaper places haven't got any websites. The differences between Haad Rin and Bottle Beach are tremendous. It really depends on what you are really after ... nightlife ... peace and quiet ... both ... exploring the island ... a good beach? I tend to stay on west side of the island.

Hello,
I planned to pass the New Year in Ko Pha-Ngan attracted by the full moon party. Going through the guide, I realized that December is in the Monsoon Period when rains are very common.
Should I re-arrange my schedule? Should I fear the rain?
I planned to stay just one day and an half and leave from Ko Samui on 2nd January (I bought already the flight ticket).
In case I decide to confirm the current schedule, I am worrying also about the boat that should bring me from Ko Pha-Ngan to Ko…
Was there last year, didn't see any evidence of any nightlife other than bars in the hotels & guest houses.
well the only way off Phi Phi is by ferry or speedboat, so getting to Krabi will be part of any method. Most methods will also require you to go from Koh Samui and from there to Ko Pha Ngan by boat/ferry.
From Krabi you can either go by air - Bangkok airways flies direct to Samui, or overland. The overland route will take you via Surat Thani and then to the ferry to Koh Samui. You can go overland by either regular bus service, or through a tour company. (iirc we paid about 600-700 BHT for…
I suggest you consider Ibiza Spain - I think you'll find what you're looking for there and no need to travel all the way to Thailand. Unless of course your australian, in which case you can head to Kuta beach in Bali.
I hope this is appropriate to write on here. I've read reviews about JS Hut Resort and it sounds great, except someone says the lady who works in the reception/restaurant is deranged and can get really angry and yells at people and other not nice sounding stuff. Has anyone else had this experience, or maybe it was a one off or something?

Isnt rainbow bungalows the one owned my the Aussie guy and his Thai wife? if it is he's a decent enough chap and Mamma (his mother-in-law ) is lovely.Never stayed there but we've always been to say hello for the past 17 years and found them to be really nice.
