Islanda Resort Hotel

Islanda Resort Hotel brings proper 4-star comfort to one of Thailand’s quieter islands. Koh Mak feels worlds away from the tourist crowds – think coconut groves, fishing boats, and that rare chance to actually disconnect. The island’s small size means you’re never far from a secluded beach, and the resort’s location puts you right in the middle of this laid-back vibe.

This isn’t your typical flashy resort, and that’s exactly the point. The property keeps things simple but well-executed – clean rooms, reliable Wi-Fi (crucial for those who can’t completely unplug), and the kind of service that feels personal rather than corporate. What really sets Islanda apart is its positioning on an island that most tourists skip entirely, giving you access to Koh Mak’s authentic pace without sacrificing comfort standards.

Insider Tip: Koh Mak has limited ATMs and many places don’t accept cards, so bring enough cash for your entire stay. The island’s remoteness means fewer backup options than you’d find elsewhere.

Travelers seeking genuine island tranquility will love this spot. The 8.6 Agoda rating from 565 reviews suggests guests appreciate the balance of comfort and authenticity. However, this remote location isn’t for everyone – if you need constant entertainment, shopping, or nightlife options, you’ll feel isolated. The 4-star rating reflects solid comfort without luxury bells and whistles, perfect for guests who prioritize location and peace over resort amenities.

At $63 per night, Islanda offers fair value for 4-star comfort in such a remote setting. Koh Mak’s main beaches are easily walkable, and you can explore the entire island by motorbike in a day. Getting here requires planning – ferries from the mainland or Koh Chang are your main options, but that journey is part of what keeps the crowds away.
