You will have completed most of the grammar and theory modules before you arrive on Koh Phangan which means you will enjoy a more relaxed learning experience on the island.

Getting Here

Our resort is located in Had Yao in the north west side of the island near the port of Thongsala, Koh Phangan. 

Try to get a flight that arrives on Koh Samui before 11:30am, then go to the taxi desk at the arrival hall at Koh Samui airport and buy a ticket to Thongsala, Koh Phangan.  The ticket costs around 250 Baht and includes the boat trip. The mini bus will pick you up just outside the terminal and transfer you to the pier. The airport staff there are very helpful and will advise you. The last fast boat to Thongsala leaves at 1.00pm but there are slow boats running until 6pm (See below).

We will do our best to meet you at Thongsala pier but the local drivers are notoriously laid back and somewhat unreliable. If you don’t see our driver you can easily make your own way to your accommodation from Thongsala pier which is only a short ride in a taxi pick up and costs around Baht 200. There will be hundreds of tourists coming off the boat with numerous pick up trucks & mini buses waiting, so you wont be alone.

If your flight arrives later than 11.30am then go to the taxi desk at Samui airport and book a ticket for the slow boat (40 minutes) to Haad Rin which includes transfer to the pier. In Haad Rin you can easily take a mini bus or pick up taxi (30 minutes) to our resort.  

The last slow boat leaves around 6pm so you will have  to stay on Koh Samui for one night if you arrive at the airport later than say 5pm. You can book cheap accommodation near the airport here. www.sawadee.com
