One of the largest islands on the Andaman Sea, Koh Phayam is located in the province of Ranong and is a good alternative to the more popular and much bigger Ko Chang, which is actually just a few kilometers from Phayam.

Most visitors to Koh Phayam arrive by boat from Ranong, travel time depending on whether one chooses a slow boat for a more relaxed and leisurely cruise or a speedboat to get to the island hotel as quickly as possible. Whatever the case, once arriving in Koh Phayam travelers will find that there are many different choices for hotels and accommodations, ranging from simple home-style rooms to lavish beachfront resorts.

Ao Kha Kwai, more commonly known as Buffalo Bay, is one of the quieter beaches on the island and the perfect alternative to the much busier beaches of the Big Bay. At Phayam Harbor, take some time to explore the wildlife sanctuary which is home to many different species of birds as well as plants. This is a great destination that combines a little bit of eco-tourism along with the typical beach vacation.

There’s a lot more to see and do in Koh Phayam, and the best way to discover what else this city has to offer in terms of attractions, landmarks, and hotels is by exploring the interactive map on this page.

Buffalo Bay Vacation Club

7.7 Very good

Based on 333 reviews

I stayed 1 week at Buffalo Bay Vacation Club. It is one of the best Resorts of the Island... If not The Best! The private beach is very calm and so nice for swimming and with lot's of small fishes arround.

You can swimm there only at high tide but I did not have any problems with it. All bungalows take place in a very nice garden with lot's of nice singing birds and it's only 1 minute to the private beach. Also the restaurant offers a great choise of very delicious food... By the way made my the boss him self. The stuff is always very helpfull and not defiant at all! Some people wrote about lot's of mosquitos.... But this depends for sure the weather... We did not have lot's of them and as there are mosquitonets at all windows and doors it's very easy going. I would always recoment this Island and this resort and if I come back to Thailand for sure I will go there again. They offer also trips for snorkeling or diving but I didi not use this service. If you don't like to rent a bike you can walk easily to next supermarket or some nice small restaurants. Very recomented is the restaurant and cocktail bar Krug Khun Kao... Leaving the resort and going up in direction center, at the first cross to the right... 20 min walking distance only. Buffalo Bay Vacation Club is the best place for relax! Walking at the beach during low tide you are in 10 min at a nice Rasta Bar. You will see the Bob Marley flag! Also very nice people!

Traveler impressions of Koh Phayam (Ranong)

easy to get from ranong. new mit tour is good company bus from bkk. to ranong. 9pm departure.ranong is a nice town.

the island beautiful.i enjoyed the sea and bush walks.

Hooker ,New Zealand

It is very nice island where is possible to drive only on motorbikes, no car, wide nature beaches, each of them looks different, canoeing in mongroves is possible, the sea is good for small children, good food, relaxing in nature, no crowded island

Sperl ,Czech Republic

Only stayed there one night because flight was cancelled so we missed the boat to the island and had to go first thing in the morning.

So can't really comment.

Thomas ,United Kingdom

this island is really good food, nice beach, nice environment, nice sunset. The best thing when you are here, you can relax and charge your energy.

eaidkong ,Thailand

It feels like the island is pretty developed (with it's restaurants, sport activities etc.) but on the other hand Phayam still can be considered as a civilisation' getaway.

Popravko ,Russia

The slow boat has only at 9 am and 2 pm, and take almost 2 hours for traveling while speed boat takes only 30 mn.

The island will be able to visit on November to May, aparts from that most resorts are closed. On holiday, it's better to book the room before arrive than walk-in. Travellers may walk around the island or rent the motorbike. No ATM on the island. Minimart and restaurants mostly closed after 10 pm

Sichanugrist ,Thailand

I only stayed one night in Ranong to catch the morning flight back to bkk, but the impression was great, would stay longer if i return.

Lam ,Sweden

Koh Phayam is very quiet and relaxing. It is one of the few Islands in Thailand where you can find quiet beaches.

The food here is more expensive than other Islands I have been to and I think this is due to electricity being run off resorts own generators. The main beach is good for surfing but the snorkeling around the Island is not as good as other Islands I have visited. This could be due to the time of year though as we seemed to catch the Island just at the beginning of rainy season as we had a couple of big storms. I would recommend hiring motorbikes for your stay on Koh Phayam as the roads are quite safe and the only other way to get around is by taxi bike which can end up being expensive if you want to go to different beaches. There are a few beach parties to go to in the evenings which are well advertised around the Island. Overall I would recommend Koh Phayam as a place to see quiet unspoiled beaches with very few tourists.

Pickering ,United Kingdom

A very sleepy island with little to do. For beach and sun worshipers it's perfect, but only for 4 months of the year as it is on the Andaman side.

Don't worry, Koh Phayam is a safe place, despite being so close to Burma.

Tavender ,United Kingdom

Kwang Pib Bay is a perfect place for Who's in love with Nature (Tropical Forest & Coral Reef). Koa Kwai Bay is a perfect place for Beach Lover, The Most chill out place.

The Most Amazing is Local People here, They are very kind and sincere.
