Divine Comedie

Ko Pha-Ngan


A stunning mix of 1920s Chinese and Mexican hacienda architecture with a colour palette that shifts from mint to ochre, this 15-room (10 bungalows and five bedrooms) boutique oasis not only works, it's beguiling. Junior suites have rooftop terraces, while standard rooms have modest balconies, and the elongated infinity pool runs to the slim beach. No kids under 12.
