Baan Panburi Village

Paradise as nature intended.

Embark on a journey by land and sea to place rightfully known as ‘paradise island’ and from here the journey has only just begun. Upon arriving in Paradise, otherwise known as Phangan Island, you will travel through undeveloped areas where only dirt roads exist, cross streams fed by lush waterfalls hidden away in the indigenous jungle and then you will arrive.

You will arrive at a perfect white sand beach nestled in a secluded bay where local villagers spend their days telling the stories of years gone by and working only enough to put food on the table, making sure to leave time for the most important things in life, family and friends. And located on the beach in this humble little town is a place we call Baan Panburi Village.

A place where there is no pretense, no concept of time yet full of genuine Thai hospitality. A place still considerate of the environment and those on a budget, yet progressive enough to look forward to the future while retaining a bit of the past. A place built by local craftsman with natural materials from the island and adorned with local trees, plants and flowers. Really a place where time stands still and a place we call home. And we think you will call it home too!

There are more than 20 temples around the island and all welcome well behaved visitors. Not only are they great historical and spiritual places, but they are also home to temple fairs with dancing, singing, markets and stalls.

When visiting temples, please respect the Buddhist and Thai culture and remember always wear a shirt that covers your shoulders and shorts past your knees. Do not wear shoes or headwear in the temples and never point your feet or touch the head of any Thais, especially a Monk ( sit cross legged ). Woman cannot touch monk, so if you wish to pass anything, do it via a male friend or put it next to the monk with your right hand.

Wat Pho ( South West )

Wat Pho is located at the start ( and level section ) of the Bai Tai to Thong Nai Pan Road where the monk operate a traditional herbal steam sauna. Natural herbs such as lemongrass and other Asian remedies are heated by a log wood fire, creating steam that is filtered into the sauna. The herbal system has many health benefits from improving skin conditions such as dry skin and eczema ( open from 3-6 pm )
