Haad Rin

The narrow neck of land in the south-east where the Full Moon Party happens, with the lowest average scores of our Phangan areas and the largest samples.

Haad Rin is the neck of land at the south-eastern corner of Koh Phangan, with a beach on each side: Haad Rin Nok to the east, where the Full Moon Party is held, and Haad Rin Nai to the west. The Haadrin Queen boat from Samui docks here, which saves the drive from Thong Sala.

We list two properties here, both beachfront four-stars, and both priced within a few hundred baht of each other. Explorar Koh Phangan is adults only, at around ฿2,582 a night. Cocohut Beach Resort is about 490 metres from the party beach, at around ฿2,203, with 4,673 reviews.

On average our picks here have the lowest scores of any Phangan area, and the lowest staff scores, though both clear our bar. They also have the largest review samples, so those numbers are well founded. Our Haad Rin listing covers the party itself.
