About the Baanyai Beach Resort Koh Mak
Baanyai Beach Resort is located on Koh Mak, a small and relatively untouched island in Trat province, near the Cambodian border and accessible from the Koh Chang archipelago. The resort attracts visitors seeking a quieter alternative to the busier islands in the Gulf of Thailand, who value relaxation over mass tourism.
Guests can expect a relaxed, family-run atmosphere, typical of smaller island resorts in this part of Thailand. Thanks to its beachfront location, visitors enjoy direct access to the island's crystal-clear waters, and the consistently positive guest feedback attests to attentive service and comfortable accommodations. The area around Koh Mak is known for its tranquility, coconut plantations, and shallow, turquoise bays, making it ideal for travelers who prefer a relaxing beach vacation to the hustle and bustle of busy resorts.
Koh Mak is best visited during the dry season, which typically lasts from November to April, when the sea is calmer and there is very little rain. The island is only accessible by ferry or speedboat from the jetties on the mainland near Trat. Travelers should therefore plan their transfers in advance, especially during peak season, as boats can fill up quickly. As no website is currently listed, prospective guests are advised to contact the resort directly or book through a reputable booking platform to inquire about availability and current prices.

Tips for visiting hotels and resorts
Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.
After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.
Location is more important than the stars
A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
