Dusit Buncha Resort, Koh Tao

Dusit Buncha Resort, Koh Tao

This is one of the nice resorts on Koh Tao that is well hidden and far away from all the hustle and bustle that Koh Tao has to offer on Sairee Beach and Mae Haad.

On the Northern tip of the divers paradise of Koh Tao lies this eco-friendly resort.

Dusit Buncha prides itself on being the only solar-powered resort on the island, with most bungalows equipped with solar panels. You will feel very much a part of the island at Dusit Buncha, since they made sure the buildings are blended with the surrounding environment.

It's nice and romantic and also secluded. As with almost everywhere on the island, electricity can be a problem, but this seems part of the adventure that Koh Tao or 'The Rock' is.

Prices at the Dusit Buncha are in the medium range and if you like nature, this will suit you fine.

Rachawadee Resort and Hotel, Khon Kaen

Rachawadee Resort and Hotel, Khon Kaen

This is one of those lovely and cosy family run resorts that are plenty full around in Thailand but oh so difficult to come by if you're not aware of them.

This family run resort, is a successful attempt by the Somjaiwong family to bring to Khon Kaen an eco-friendly property. Rent a car or a bike to explore the city and nearby areas or book a customized tour with the hotel. And if you are a golf enthusiast, you are sure to appreciate the location, which puts several courses within driving distance. On-site recreational activities include a pool, gym, and traditional Thai massage. Solar powered water heating and reusable laundry bags are just two of the many eco-friendly practices followed at the resort.

The resort is 500 metres from Khon Kaen Airport and a short 10 minutes drive from Khon Kaen City Centre, convenient if you brought your own car, since taxi's are difficult to get a hold of but the hotel runs a shuttle service to down town Khon Kaen. Encircled by coconut palms and gardens the contemporary Thai style Rachawadee Resort & Hotel has a 9 hole mini golf course and the gardens surrounding the resort are breath taking and the grounds are like being in a botanical garden, even the trees are sign posted as to the type/name. Animals, especially rabbits roam freely and waterfalls, creeks and waterways flow everywhere and there's even a small zoo which the kids will just absolutely love!

An excellent and relaxing and economical option, just make sure there's no wedding on the night you stay, make sure to get a room away from the party. Surrounded by green spaces, the Rachawadee Resort and Hotel is an affordable and relaxing place to stay when visiting the Isan region.
