Modern rooms with lots of natural light
Sleek beachfront infinity pool with pool bar

Thai restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating
Free Wi-Fi throughout
Crowded and loud during full-moon parties
Expensive by Koh Phangan standards
Rooms are on the small side
The COAST is a small, sleek beach boutique hotel, just minutes from central Haad Rin, known for its monthly full moon parties. The rooms are small but get plenty of light, and even the room doors are made of glass for better views of the tropical surroundings outside. The highlight of the resort is its beachside infinity pool, which has an adjoining pool bar with seats in the water. It's a great spot for young couples who want to enjoy the full moon festivities, but also want a relaxing, upper-mid-range escape from the crowds. It is, however, one of the most expensive resorts in the Haad Rin area and pricey by Koh Phangan standards.

Scene
Hip hotel popular with well-heeled partiers
The COAST attracts young, hip, and party-oriented travelers. Most guests forego hanging out in their tiny rooms, congregating instead at the hotel's infinity pool, the beach, or the restaurant, all of which are clustered together. The majority of the guests here are couples or pairs of friends, as there are no family-size rooms. Its location in the party town of Haad Rin means that many of the guests are in town to let loose, and guests often hang out with drinks in hand until late in the night. However, the resort is far enough up the beach to ensure it is quieter than most spots, and its steep room rates tend to deter a large chunk of the backpacker crowd.
Location
Right on the beach, a short walk from central Haad Rin
The COAST sits right along a quiet stretch on the western part of Haad Rin Beach, just off the main road in town that runs parallel to the coast. It's one of the quieter spots in the area and is only a 10-minute walk into central Haad Rin, where the town's famous full-moon parties are held every lunar month.

Features
Infinity pool with bar, fitness room, and beachside restaurant
