Welcome to MaiPenRai Bungalows Thansadet Beach Koh Phangan
Mai Pen Rai - the place of pleasure for nature lovers and artists.
Welcome to Teep's 'Mai Pen Rai' Bungalows. 'Mai Pen Rai' Bungalows is one of the oldest resorts in Koh Phangan,
founded by Teep about 20 years ago. 'Mai Pen Rai' is situated in a tropical paradise infringed with swaying palms and
green turquoise waters. 'Mai Pen Rai' which means 'no problem' is as the name implies - the restaurant is easy going
with funky and artistic decoration, the ambiance is chilled out and unpretentious.

Here the famous Than Sadet river meanders down the mountainside through the dense jungle and exits into the sea beside
MaiPenRai restaurant. The river and waterfalls once visited by their Majesties King V, VII and IX, who carved their initials on
the huge granite rocks that grace this river, have now become one of the most tranquil and popular places on the island to visit
and relax. Parts of Thansadet beach and Waterfall due to these royal connections are National Park land. A short walk across the
bridge and over the hill, brings one to the neighbouring smaller beach of Thong Reng, infringed with beautiful palms, and soft
white sands. |
This corner of Than Sadet has a unique, simple rustic feeling, that of the old Koh Phangan and is surrounded
by wild jungle behind and a coast line of rugged wildness - ideal for treks and boat trips to the neighbouring beaches on the East coast
of Ko Pha-ngan. The atmosphere in Thansadet is still simple, rustic, and slightly bohemian, with the
emphasis on keeping in touch with the roots of nature around. This can be felt whether sitting in the restaurant, enjoying one’s
meal, while a Bharan meanders past in the river, or sitting on the verandah of one’s bungalow where every effort has been made to
incorporate the beauty of the surrounding natural features into the design of the rooms. |

Mai Pen Rai offers a large variety of bungalows
to travelers on different budgets, with a choice of 35 bungalows on the beach,
on the river, and on the rocks.
Each bungalow is totally different, not one being the same. All the cabins are artistically
and thoughtfully designed to harmoniously blend in with the beautiful surroundings, incorporating the large granite boulders into the design of the bungalows. |
This is truly a paradise where nature lovers and artists from all walks of life can come together, and enjoy the peace and serenity of this unique corner of the world. Here one is able to unwind and recharge ones spirit in the seclusion and tranquility of this very special haven. Due to the fast development of Koh Phangan, this really is a one of a kind place where the pace of life is still as it should be, and the feeling of the ‘old Koh Phangan’ is still present in the atmosphere and feeling of this beach. |
