Scene
A budget-friendly beach hotel with lush grounds
The Nai Yang Beach Resort takes full advantage of its beautiful tropical surroundings with an open-air lobby that features trees growing through the dark wood-beamed ceiling. Rustic wooden picnic tables and benches fill the lobby. Sleek black and red sofas are placed in the reception area. Situated on the edge of the Nai Yang National Marine Park, the location is secluded and quiet, attracting budget-conscious couples or travelers on a short vacation, who prefer to be close to the airport. The beach, just a few feet from the hotel, offers a sandy shore near vendors and restaurants in huts, shaded by trees. The atmosphere is tropical and simple, if lacking a bit of polish.
