What we say: 3 stars

At the northern end of Thong Nai Pan Yai, White Wind is cut off from the beach by a canal that can be crossed most of the time with minimal sloshing but can be a real pain when the water levels are higher. If you don't feel like a slosh, take the road past the school and temple to get here. The simple yellow painted wooden bungalows sit at various angles and elevations climbing up the the rocky hillside, some with nice views, others without. The huts with shared bathrooms are particularly inexpensive here, though accessing some requires a perilous ascent along a rocky path. This sketchy path continues around the rocky headland on the way to what signs indicate is another beach, meaning Thong Nai Pan Noi -- probably not the best or safest way to get there. The staff here are friendly but usually too relaxed to do much more than tell you a price and point you towards your room. As of May 2007, the restaurant is closed for construction, and a good-sized building is going up at the base of the hill, so expect some noise from this operation. Overall, though, this is a cheap and extremely laid-back place.
