Koh Jum Lodge

An ecolodge with style: the 19 spacious cottages here have lots of hardwood and bamboo, gauzy mosquito netting, coconut palms, Thai carvings and silk throws. Then there are the manicured grounds, massage pavilions and a hammock-strewn curve of white sand out front. It strikes that hard-to-get balance of authenticity and comfort. There's a minimum three-night stay in high season.
