What we say:

Mae Nam Villa is a bungalow style resort, rather hard to find, and strangely tucked into the middle of the ultra-luxurious W Retreat. To find it, follow the signs for the W Retreat, drive through their entrance, and you'll reach the basic beach bungalows at Mae Nam Villa. The air-con bungalows are larger and constructed of concrete, whereas the older fan bungalows are of the wooden beach hut variety. The bungalows have not weathered well, but you can't question the view as you rub shoulders with the rich and famous on the beach that stretches in front to the W Retreat on one side, and Fair House Villas and Spa on the other side. Bungalows have double beds, mosquito screens and small furnished patios. There is an onsite restaurant serving reasonably priced Thai and Western food, and a massage sala. Bungalows are set in a sparse garden, and all have sea views. At 400 baht, the fan rooms in particular are a bargain.

Nice spot, awkward staff

Maenam Villa has nice, roomy stone bungalows set around a pretty, relaxing, quiet garden at the east end of Maenam beach. However, after five months travelling I had my first unpleasant experience: after prebooking a triple room and agreeing a price including breakfast, only one double bed was provided (cosy!) but after persuasion, another bed was found and the following day we were charged extra for a third breakfast. Due to the unwelcoming nature of the staff and feeling we were an inconvienience we tried to arrange a taxi with the staff but the cost quoted was massively inflated, which unfortunately left us no option but to move on from this rather romantic, relaxing spot. Shame.
