Description
Located opposite Wat Ko Tao and the local primary school, Baan Tao Bungalow is a short walk from the centres of Mae Haad and Sairee but provides a more peaceful alternative. Though it has no restaurant of its own, plenty of fine dining is not too far away. Baan Tao offers laundry service, and there is a small shop/bookstore located nearby at Mr J.'s. The beach is about five minutes away by foot. Baan Tao's well-kept bungalows are comfortable and affordable, making it popular among backpackers. The good-sized huts line a hillside path shaded by plenty of trees, and each has a small deck with chairs.
