Haad Sai Khao

Northern Haad Sai Khao

Accommodation along the northern stretch of Haad Sai Khao ranges from old-school beach bungalows to luxury resort rooms. South of KC Grande Resort things start to get decidedly upmarket. There's also some funky bars and independent restaurants at this end of the beach.

Southern Haad Sai Khao

A larger number of bars and high-end accommodation is located towards the southern part of the beach at White Sands. The beach itself starts to get more rocky the further down you go, until a large rocky outcrop marks the end of the beach. Further south, resorts cling to the side of a big hill, some with great views looking back over White Sands.
