Location
Haad Yao
Koh Phangan, Thailand
Where the mountains meet the sea
Koh Phangan is an island in the Gulf of Thailand, just north of Koh Samui. Known for its lush tropical forests, pristine beaches, and laid-back atmosphere, the island has evolved from a backpacker destination to a haven for digital nomads, wellness seekers, and those looking for a slower pace of life without sacrificing comfort.
Haad Yao (Long Beach) is on the island's west coast — a crescent of white sand facing the open sea, famous for its sunsets. The Yama villas sit on the hillside above the beach, offering panoramic views while keeping you just a five-minute walk from the water.
