Rooms

4 room types · 25–35 m²

Zama Resort Koh Phangan offers four bungalow categories, each arranged for up to two people. The rooms measure 25, 30 or 35 m² and share a private entrance, air conditioning, a private bathroom, soundproofing, a minibar and a terrace. The Standard Bungalow is 25 m² and looks onto the garden; the Pool Side Bungalow is 30 m², with garden and pool views. The two 35 m² categories differ in their outlook: the Partial Sea View Bungalow faces the sea and garden, while the Bungalow with Sea View looks towards the ocean.

All four have an extra-large double bed and a walk-in shower, with a hairdryer, bathrobe, slippers and free toiletries provided. A balcony and patio accompany the terrace, giving each bungalow several outdoor features. The private entrance provides a separate approach to each unit. The main distinction across the range is the view, with the sea-facing categories looking out towards the ocean.

Zama Resort Koh Phangan is in Haad Yao on Koh Phangan’s west coast, among small coves and beach settlements known for swimming and sunset views. Haad Son Beach Koh Phangan is 300 m away, and Haad Chao Phao is 350 m away. Haad Yao (West) is 950 m away, while Secret Beach is about a 10-minute walk according to the resort’s description. The resort sits on a hillside, so paths and the approach can be steep.

The island is reached by boat, with Thong Sala pier serving as the main arrival point; the resort’s own description places it about 7 km from the pier. From there, shared songthaew services run towards Haad Yao, and taxis or a rented scooter can cover the remaining road journey. Guest feedback notes that scooters can be useful on the steep terrain. Free private parking is available on site for travellers arriving by car.

For a local outing, Food Market is 1.2 km away and Wat Sri Thanu is 1.3 km away; Phaeng Waterfall is 6.6 km inland. The west coast is known for swimming beaches and sunset views, while the island’s interior offers walking and hiking routes. February to April is generally the driest, calmest period; June to September brings the green season, and October to December is the wettest stretch, when sea crossings can be rougher. The resort also offers activities including snorkelling, diving, fishing and windsurfing.
