Kohkood Ngamkho Resort

Ko Kut


One of the best budget-by-the-beach options. Compact, agreeably rustic huts perch on a forested hillside over a reasonable beach; the outlook through coconut palms to the water is very picturesque. The friendly Thai family rents kayaks, and there's a rustic beachfront restaurant where the coffee and beer is cheap and you keep your own tab.
