Alaia

Run by a young Aussie-Japanese surfer couple, this fairly plush but laid-back option is on the northern tip of Nyang Nyang Island (Pulau Masokut). Its two bungalows are massive and perfect for groups, and mix traditional design with modern comforts (cable TV, air-conditioning), along with luxurious floor-to-ceiling windows looking out to the water. There's an atmospheric thatched restaurant and sparkling infinity pool.
