About the High Life Bungalow

Perched high on a hill overlooking the Koh Phangan coastline, High Life Bungalow is a renowned resort that combines relaxed island living with reliable comfort. The infinity pool and open-air restaurant are key attractions, providing guests with an ideal base from which to explore one of Thailand's most popular islands. With excellent ratings from over a thousand reviews, the resort has earned a consistent reputation for a pleasant stay in picturesque surroundings.

Guests can expect the relaxed atmosphere typical of Koh Phangan, with bungalows that offer travelers with individual charm more than the rigidity of everyday business life. The elevated location of the accommodation provides magnificent views, and thanks to the on-site restaurant, meals are conveniently accessible without having to leave the hotel for every meal. The open dining experience reflects the relaxed, tropical flair of the island.

The reception is open daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Travelers arriving late should therefore arrange transfers and check-in details in advance. Koh Phangan is particularly busy during the Full Moon Party, which takes place monthly at nearby Haad Rin Beach. Early booking is recommended if your trip falls within this period. Those seeking a quieter experience should travel outside of the full moon season when the island is more relaxed.

    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.
