Travel Guide

Samed Nang She View Point. Phang Nga , Thailand
The Ko Tapu in the Ao Phang Nga Marine National Park. Most photographed and wildly popular, it is also called the James Bond Island after it appeared in "The Man with the Golden Gun". It seems close enough to touch, 40 mts from the tiny beach, but no boats are allowed to approach it. I thought it one of the most scenic parts of the National Park.
Sea kayaking, cave exploring
Samet Nang She Viewpoint offers great photo opportunities - even without a drone. Getting there is some kind of an adventure as it's located in the very rural Phang Nga Province, a 1-hour ride by car from Phuket Island. The most popular time to go is at sunrise, as the viewpoint is facing east. Snacks and drinks are available on site, as well as a pick-up truck if you do not want to - or can't - hike up there (it roughly takes 15 minutes on foot). #LifeAtExpedia

We checked in and checked out the same day. My family and I booked the family suite. There were four of us and one room card was given.

It was a lovely stay for us. Everyone in the staff was very courteous and nice. The breakfast spread was decent. The resort is right on the beach and is very family and kids friendly.

Room was fine although don’t see the point of a kitchen if you don’t provide equipment and utensils. Pool area is just awful. Cramped, lack of sun loungers and permanently in the shade.
