When we think of beach getaways in Southeast Asia, we think of lush white sand, endless blue beaches, and amazingly good food. If you’re looking to bang out a really good holiday on a budget, Thailand is the way to go! The more popular Thai spots like Phuket and Krabi seem to be staggering under the weight of fast-paced development as throngs of tourists visit on a daily basis. Meanwhile, the southern islands, like Trang, seem to retain the relaxed, sleepy, tranquil calm that you just so happen to be looking for. Trang is a host to a few islands and is relatively unknown to many. In order to help you out, here are some awesome places to stay at in Trang.
1. Mook Lamai Resort & Spa (from USD 118)
Rated a whopping 9.3 out of 10 on Booking.com, you can be sure that this resort will definitely be a hit! Here, you’ll get the real holiday bungalow vibe. Although the communal pool sits right smack in the middle of all the holiday bungalows, the decor of the rooms more than make up for the lack of privacy as the gorgeous teak and cement blend so well together to provide a rustic look that you can only dream of. The stellar service and food here definitely puts this resort on the map for the top-notch treatment and experience that you will receive here.
