Shark Bay Bungalow

Laid back

What we say

Shark Bay Bungalows stretch almost the length of Thian Ok Bay. The charming little round huts are a little spendy but are in great shape and very comfortable. The thatch roofs make it feel like living in a small island village -- you pretty much will be. Bungalows are privately spaced around large, open grounds and each has a good-sized deck. The newly completed polished Thai Redwood beach villas are high class and well appointed and the price reflects this. Guests will have their own concierge and enjoy being beachside whilst lounging on their spacious deck. All rooms have a fridge, TV and DVD player with ensuite bathroom. Thian Ok is peaceful and the bay is great for snorkelling and kayaking.Equipment can be rented from the small beach bar (mask and snorkel or fins: 100B/day;mask snorkel and fins: 150B/day; kayaks: 200B/hour, 500B/half day, 1000B/day). The tiny beach bar/restaurant provides a sanctuary from the sun and offers decent priced food and drinks but doesn't reflect the class of the accommodation offered.
