This little-known but huge resort is set at the very northern end of White Sands Beach, well away from the crowds, although that also equates to a 15-20 minute walk to reach the action. There's a large range of concrete, weatherboard and bamboo huts spread along a fairly quiet stretch of stunning powder soft beach. Rooms are simple, though not inspiring, and many of the double-beds are really just two single beds pushed together. There's a large shop selling essentials in the restaurant, and staff can arrange sailing day-trips. The resort is nice for relaxing, but not for parties. The bamboo rooms have a stone and cement bathroom, but are a bit too expensive; much better are the beach side or garden view rooms, which have more space and better bathrooms. All rooms are air-con. The resort has over 600 metres of beach front, so a great choice if your ideal holiday is lounging around on the sand. A world class location with moderate dwellings.

Away from it - 15th February, 2008
would really call this place a resort but just huts on the beach. The location is great if you are looking for somewhere away from the hussle and bustle of Whitesand. The huts on the beach have a great view of the sea.The neg side is that the huts are a bit run down and the bathroom could use a big clean.However ,It's extramly peaceful here with a nice long white sand beach beach,great for sunning, swimming and fantastic sunsets.
