island hopping in thailand - best places to stay in Ko samui, Ko Tao and Ko Phangan.
heading down to hit the beaches in southern thailand.. anyone have any advice as to which places are best to stay or what areas to head for on these islands? travelling alone and would like to meet other travellers.
Thanks

I think beach huts are the best places to stay on the islands. They are often very inexpensive, even though they are comfortable enough.
I am not keen on Koh Samui. The whole island seems to be heavily in the process of being torn up to build resorts. I didnt like it much. It is long past its hippy heaven days.

Reply to this Hello sarah,
I have been to Ko Samui only in 2001 and its wonderful ... I dont know if it has changed alot now ornot,, but as i know it still as a ot spot for tourist. Why dont you go all the way to the south .. the small islands near to phuket, the. I dont remmber all the names, but my self i call it the "KOH FAMILY" hehe. They are near to each other and they are beautiful. I have visited , Koh Moh (or Mak), Koh Phi Phi, and Colanta. I think you should go to them if you have enough time.
good luck.
