“Shiralea Backpackers Resort strikes me as a solid choice for budget-conscious travelers in Haad Yao, with its inviting pool and bungalows set amongst the sounds of the forest. I particularly like that even the budget rooms have balconies with hammocks for relaxing. It seems a perfectly acceptable place to unwind, especially given its proximity to the beach.”
