Bulon Viewpoint Resort

Quiet bungalows on rocky beach

What we say:

Scattered down a hillside overlooking the grainy beach of Panka Noi Bay, these bungalows give a sense of seclusion despite being centrally located. Panka Noi is a rocky stretch of mangroves and sand so not really suitable for swimming. The sturdy bungalows are built of concrete and brick and each has a private porch with two chairs. The bungalow interiors are well-maintained and have big beds and a fan. Their open bathrooms with stone-covered floors are nicely designed, though the glass shard-studded concrete walls can be either disturbing or reassuring. The most recently built bungalows are the ones nearest the beach and these are more spacious than the others, although also slightly more expensive. The bungalows further up the hill are clean and comfortable, and some have excellent views of the limestone karst formations in the bay. Viewpoint's restaurant is more expensive than other options nearby and is often closed if there aren't many guests.

Steep but peaceful

I stayed here in Mar. 2007. Nice accommodation. My bungalow was 500 baht. The grounds are lush and lovely, but steep going, although the paths are paved with stone. There is no beach here, but there is bar. It was VERY quiet whilst I was here. Staff friendly, if you even seen them. Bungalow was comfortable. 2 large beds, good linen and washroom was large. Nice veranda to sit out on with a nice view of Karst islands in the Andaman sea. If you come to Bulon Lae, there will be a representative to come meet you and take your bags if you decide to stay. Bring a torch! You will need it for night if you are going to be eating at the Bulon Resort or the Pansand in the evening... There are also a few places to eat at Mango Bay. It is easy to get lost going over island in the dark.
