 Baan Panburi Village: Overview
'Idyll uninterrupted' can only begin to describe your experience at Baan Panburi Village. Prepare for a pleasant culture shock that will find you under a thatched roof and rustic simplicity that somehow manages to keep you in optimum comfort. The silver sands and blue waters take center stage while the swaying palm fronds nod in approval.
The Village has succeeded in preserving the tranquil show put on by nature. Quaint cottages called bures, constructed with local materials, enhance your feel good factor. Relax in a hammock rocked by the warm breeze, while the sea croons a soothing lullaby. Feel the powdery sand crunch while your feet luxuriate in their liberated shoe free status.
Baan Panburi Village: Rooms OverviewBeach House
About 63 huts and cottages known as bures dot the beach and garden landscape to give you varying levels of comfort. Newly renovated with thoughtful additions, the Village is now ready to make good its promise of giving you the perfect getaway at down to earth prices.
At the top of the range comes the lovely Beach House which as the name suggests, is on the beach. There are about six of them each having a private garden where you can loll around in a hammock, and finally read that book you have been carting around. Equipped with a double bed, air-conditioning, TV, hot water, and the best location possible, there really isn't anything you could ask for.
Sea View Hut
The air conditioned Sea View Hut comes next in line. Made entirely of locally available material such as bamboo panels and palm, here's your chance to go rustic without really leaving your comfort zone.
Island Hut
The Island Hut comes at the lower end of the list. These are slightly smaller in size but have great garden setting and privacy. Electric fans take on the job of keeping you cool. So if you're visiting in summer think long and hard whether you can do without an AC.
Garden Hut
The Garden Hut is similar to the Island Hut in all amenities and only varies in the location.

Baan Panburi Village location map
Baan Panburi Village is located towards the northeast of the island of Koh Phangan, by the beautiful bay of Thong Nai Pan Noi. The principal town of Thongsala is about 2 hours by boat from the nearby Samui Island.
If you're coming from Bangkok, you have a choice between an 8 hour coach ride and a 1 hour flight to Koh Phangan depending on how much of a hurry you are in to get back behind that desk.
Once you've made it to Thongsala, the fun begins. Get ready for a 45 minute roller coaster ride that takes you through almost all forms of natural terrain from steep hill sides and valleys through streams and waterfalls. Just when you scream you can't take another minute of this, you spot the stretch of white leading to a tranquil blue bay nestling the foot of a tropical green mountain.
Then again, you might prefer to take the scenic route and arrive by boat from Haad Rin or Chaloklum, if season permits.

Baan Panburi Village: Hotel Facilities - Restaurants and DiningSala Rim Nam Restaurant
Come breakfast, lunch, or dinner time, and if you let your nose do the leading, you'll certainly wind up at the Sala Rim Nam Restaurant. The colors, aromas, and steamy goodness will soon have you floored. An array of salad, seafood, and dishes that you can only relish and not pronounce will have you come back again for more.
Fabulous local fare and an eclectic international menu do well to pamper palates of all kinds. Watch the catch of the day appear before you as a salad, in an Indian curry, or even on a pizza. In addition to this, the chef is willing to accommodate any requests you may have that borders on the right side of eccentricity.
Baan Panburi Village: Hotel Facilities - Spa and WellnessSawasdee Traditional Thai Massage House
If you take your relaxation seriously, head for the Sawasdee Traditional Thai Massage House. This might take a while, so make sure you have a whole afternoon with nothing else planned. Steamed herb poultices offer magical relief to aching backs and cramped muscles. You can have sessions ranging from 1 to 3 hours to bring out the inner youth hidden beneath all that fatigue and fast food.
An oil massage might sound innocuous but it goes to work on you long after you're done with it, leaving you with an enigmatic afterglow. If you're pressed for time, you should at least try out the foot massage which miraculously soothes the whole body.
