Anantara Rasananda is a tropical beach hideaway set on the white sands of Koh Phangan. Luxurious villas sit among towering coconut palms and verdant gardens, with the ocean just moments from the door.
Koh Phangan lies around 30 minutes by speedboat from Koh Samui, and the resort is a short drive from the pier on the island’s north-east coast.
It’s a world away from the infamous Full Moon Party scene, offering a far more peaceful side of the island.
Anantara Rasananda is one of the most luxurious and well-appointed hotels on this beautiful island.
An inviting infinity swimming pool runs into the Thong Nai Pan Noi Beach and there’s also a pool just for kids.
There are two specialist restaurants: The Bistro at The Beach serves Thai cusine as well as international dishes while Yukinoya serves up Japanese fare for both lunch and dinner in indoor and outdoor settings. Go to EDGE20 for a sundowner and snacks.
Other fun facilities include snorkelling and other watersports, a tennis court, and even a sushi cookery school.
There’s also a signature spa offering a wide variety of treatments in a jungle garden setting.
The Rooms
Just over 60 villas and suites are set among tropical gardens and designed to feel private, calm and generously spaced.
Every room includes a private pool, a king-size bed and modern amenities, making it easy to settle in comfortably from the moment you arrive.
Interiors blend Thai design with a contemporary edge, using soft local fabrics, natural materials and clean lines to create spaces that feel relaxed rather than showy.
There are two main accommodation styles. Suites are spacious and light, with plunge pools and a choice of locations either within the main buildings or closer to the beach. Private pool villas offer even more room and seclusion, with their own swimming pools. These villas are true hideaways: perfect for romantic escapism or for a family to spread out.
