Phangan Akuna is a small resort in Sri Thanu where the pool is the thing guests talk about most — plenty of reviews say flat out it's the best they found on Koh Phangan. The bungalows and villas are spread through a coconut grove, each with a wide balcony, bright rooms, a work desk and stable Wi-Fi, which has made it a favourite with remote workers who hit a yoga class morning and evening. It sits in the middle of the Sri Thanu zone, a short walk or scooter ride from the yoga schools, vegan cafes and shops, scoring 8.9 on Booking and up to 9.3 on Trip.com.
