“What stands out is the family-run atmosphere and beachfront location, with direct access to safe swimming areas, which makes it popular with families and scuba enthusiasts; plus, there are two on-site restaurants, including Pranee Kitchen, which is known for its sunset views. The location is convenient, a short walk from the pier in Mae Haad, and they can accommodate ferry bookings and scooter rentals.
