Spice sits on Haad Tien, one of three bays on Koh Phangan's wild south-east coast — reachable only by boat or jungle track. Remote, yes. But there's a whole little community out here: places to eat, swim, get a massage and dance till sunrise, all a walk or a short boat away.
You don't have to leave the bay. Three places, all a short stroll from your house.
Two kitchens, one spot — slow all-day brunch in our gardens, then Thai fusion cuisine and proper cocktails come evening.
Private houses tucked through the gardens and the hillside — your own quiet place to land on the bay.
The essentials — water, snacks, sunscreen, cold drinks — without the trek to town.
You came all this way for the quiet — but you won't run out of things to do. Here are the neighbours worth knowing, all happy to welcome you whether you're staying with them or not.
Our friendly neighbour and the bay's wellness landmark since 1989. Yoga, spa, healing, detox and fasting programs, plus a beachfront restaurant of vegetarian, pescatarian and raw food.
An all-day beachfront vegan kitchen on the next cove along, with quality yoga in a quieter, picturesque setting. A pretty walk over the headland from Haad Tien.
An easygoing spot just along the bay — mostly Thai food that's very budget-friendly, plus massage and simple, affordable bungalows. The kind of place you end up at more than once.
All-day dining on the rocks above Haad Yuan, with some of the best sea views on this coast. Come for a long lunch, then come back for their weekly Sunday session party.
A Friday-night underground jungle party right behind the beach — deep house under the trees till sunrise, free to get in. Runs through the peak season.
A legend in its own right — the big Saturday party over on Haad Yuan, every week. If you're here for a weekend, this is the night out.
A boutique resort on Haad Yuan with a beachfront restaurant and a pool bar — an easy spot to settle in for lunch and a swim, guest or not.
Laid-back all-day dining right on Haad Yuan beach — casual, unfussy, good for a long lunch with your feet near the water.
A jungle eco-retreat with something genuinely unusual — the R.E.S.T. Pyramid, a custom-built floatation tank for sensory-deprivation therapy, tucked into the trees. Worth it for the curious.
Hours and party nights shift with the season and the weather out here — always worth asking us at the restaurant for what's on while you're staying.
