Charu Bay Villas

These fully equipped villas on the bay of Ao Bang Charu, just southeast of Thong Sala, are good value (especially if you're a group), and there's a modern garden self-catering seaside studio too, plus a two-bedroom garden-view villa with rooftop terrace. The Beachfront Villa is a three-bed big enough to sleep up to 10, and comes with a large jacuzzi.
