We spent a very relaxing 14 nights at this resort in May/June. The location, food, the villas and most importantly the staff were fantastic. We travelled with a 4 year old and from the minute he was lifted off the speedboat and onto the beach he was welcomed and totally spoilt. The villas and the grounds were spotless. On one... More

Fantastic resort. Staff super attentive, felt like a boutique hotel. Breakfast covered most cuisine. Only criticisms are sun beds are woeful for a 5* resort which a small investment would solve this and dinner way too expensive.. Consider other options locally. Fantastic half moon bay location.

It was our second time at Rasananda and definitely not our last visit. If you look for a quiet beach holiday with all the casual luxuries you can't go wrong with this resort.

We have travelled all Over Thailand over the last 10 years and thought we had stayed in some of the best hotels, however this is hands down THE best overall resort in Thailand. Thing nai pan is a beautiful area, clean, simple and unspoilt with lots of nice restaurants but small enough to call it a village. The hotel itself... More

We stayed at the Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan in September 2012 for a week on our honeymoon. It's a great beach resort, but I've only rated it a four because that is pretty much all there is to do. Great if you want a beach holiday, but not if you want to explore a bit more of Thailand. We stayed... More

Dear birdymorgan, Thank you very much for reviewing us on TripAdvisor after your visit in September last year. I feel sorry that you felt disappointed with the island tour as the island has actually a lot of hidden secrets to discover. By now, we have an island guru who tailor-makes excursions instead of selling a pre arranged sightseeing tour. I... More

We stayed in March and had an Ocean Pool Villa. If you liked Koh Samui 25 years ago then you will like Tong Nai Pan Noi. The Anantara is fabulous.

My wife and I stayed here for a week during our honeymoon to Thailand. The customer service was fantastic from the moment we landed in Koh Samui.

We visited this hotel while staying in koh Phangan and had lunch and dinner here on numerous occasions and would highly recommend it. The service and the food quality were exceptional and the view from the restaurant is amazing. The food is a bit expensive but worth it.
