Phangan Utopia Resort

I came to Phangan Utopia for a few nights of tranquility. It is the perfect place if you're looking for a place that is quiet and relaxing. I spent the first three nights in a mountain view room, or maybe it was the pool view room. The patio looked out onto the pool and sea behind it, while I had a mountain view from the bathroom. Utopia is about a 20 minute drive from town and there aren't many buildings around so you get really nice views of the natural surroundings. The room was clean and comfortable and was quite spacious for the price. This was a great value room. My final night, I moved to a sea view room. These small cottages are built into the cliff and the overlook the sea. It doesn't get much more relaxing than reading on the back patio with an unimpeded 180 degree sea view. The sea view rooms are more expensive than the standard rooms. They are also smaller and there were a few ants in the bathroom, but this is to be expected when you are staying in a cottage built on a cliff. I think the sea view is completely worth the extra money and the bed was also extremely comfortable (the bed in the standard room was fine). For a short-stay, I'd recommend staying in a sea view room. However, if you are staying longer, you may want to go for a larger pool/mountain view room. Finally, the staff at Utopia are so friendly and kind. You can tell they are happy working there and it makes the stay that much better. I will definitely be coming back to Utopia soon!

The pool view, the easy and nice staff

The location was great!! Gorgeous on a hill and the staff was the most friendly staff I’ve ever met during all of my holidays, I am going to miss them! It is so lovely to sit on the balcony of the apartments, gorgeous view.
