The Thai island of Koh Phangan will always capture the interest of the fun-loving visitor. When considering accommodation Koh Phangan hotels an outstanding choice would be the Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan Villa Resort & Spa. This attractive accommodation provides appealingly designed rooms with a host of enjoyable amenities.

The attractive island of Koh Phangan is renowned for its vibrant parties and other fun events. There is no doubt that the lively Full Moon Party at Haad Rin Beach is the best-known festive event at the island. This hugely popular event resembles a huge open-air discotheque with a host of bars playing different kinds of music involved in the revelry. You will be able to enjoy reggae, classic rock, dance, techno, hardcore and more so there is sure to be something that will take your fancy. Many of the bars feature powerful modern sound systems and it is quite an experience to wander from bar to bar enjoying the variety of music being played. Needless to say, drinks, dancing and fun are plentiful at this laidback and carefree event.

However the fun doesn’t stop here as Koh Phangan offers other highlights at different dates of the month. Noteworthy is the Black Moon Party which occurs approximately two weeks after each Full Moon Party. This event is slightly different as there is only one sound system in operation, albeit a very powerful one. A succession of DJs takes their turn on the deck, providing exciting trance and techno music.

Also not to be missed is the enjoyable Half Moon Party which unlike the others is staged in the local jungle. The vibe may be slightly different but the experience is just as distinctive as the other parties.

Other noteworthy events at Koh Phangan Island include the colourful celebrations for the Chinese New Year. Another interesting occasion is the distinctive Songkran Festival which is also worth experiencing. With so much to do and experience, a visit to Koh Phangan will always be memorable.
