The Great Escape Chalets

The Great Escape Chalets is a holiday home in Thong Nai Pan, Koh Phangan, where each chalet has a private plunge pool and access to a year-round outdoor swimming pool. Set close to Thong Nai Pan Yai Beach, the property combines individual outdoor spaces with garden and mountain views. The accommodation suits couples or small groups who want a detached chalet near the beach, while the room range includes options for two or three people.

The three chalet types measure 40 or 49 m² and include air conditioning, a private bathroom and a terrace or balcony. Some have a bath as well as a shower, while the One-Bedroom Chalet adds a private entrance and streaming services. A garden, sun loungers and beach towels are shared features; the property also has free WiFi, free private parking, a tour desk and daily housekeeping. Activities on offer include hiking, snorkelling, diving, canoeing and fishing.

Each of the three chalet choices has a private pool, air conditioning, a private bathroom and outdoor space through a balcony or terrace. Views include the garden, pool and mountains, while the 40 m² Superior Chalet and Chalet both include a bath as well as a shower, a refrigerator and outdoor seating. Superior Chalet accommodates up to three with one single bed and one large king-size bed; Chalet sleeps two in a super-king bed.

The One-Bedroom Chalet is the largest option at 49 m² and also accommodates three, with two beds in its bedroom. It has a private entrance and a walk-in shower rather than the bath featured in the other two chalet types. Its garden-facing terrace, tea and coffee maker and flat-screen TV with streaming services distinguish it from the smaller chalets.

Outdoor amenities include a private pool, garden, patio and terrace, with outdoor furniture and an outdoor dining area. Sun loungers or beach chairs and pool or beach towels are provided, and the accommodation has air conditioning, family rooms and non-smoking rooms. Activities include snorkelling, diving, hiking, canoeing and fishing; a tour desk, luggage storage and daily housekeeping are also available. Private and express check-in and check-out, laundry and ironing services add to the on-site services.

Inside the chalets, you have a dining table and dining area, seating area, kitchenware, electric kettle and refrigerator, as well as a fan and clothes-drying rack. Private bathrooms come with towels, toiletries, a hairdryer and shower. A flat-screen TV and streaming service are available, and free WiFi covers all areas.
