Small and largely undeveloped, Ko Lon (เกาะโหลน) is a tranquil island get-a-way just off the shores of Phuket. It has lovely hilly inlands and flat beach sides lined with coconut palms.
This place gets somewhat mixed reviews, with positives for the location and atmosphere, but negatives for pricing, food and service.
Don't expect any roads other than a walking path. You won't need them either though, as the island is no more than 3km long and some 800m wide.
