About Bang Tao & Laguna

A long beach and manicured resort complex suited to families wanting an easy, self-contained holiday.

The Laguna complex is built around large lakes with paved paths, with paved paths between the hotels. The adjacent beach is wide and slopes gently, but rip currents bring red flags from May to October. Pick this area for a structured, resort-heavy environment, but skip it if you prefer stepping out of your room straight into local street life.

Getting there: About a 30-minute taxi from the airport in the north.
Watch out for: Prices are higher here than in southern beach towns.
