- [dead link] Haadlad Prestige Resort & Spa (Haad Salad Beach). Check-in: 12:00, check-out: 11:00. Three different styles of wooden beach front villa and three styles of hotel room. With an in-house cooking school, spa, restaurant, and large swimming pool. 1,680-4,400 baht.
- Smile Beach Resort. A 5 minute walk from the beach. Rooms are nice. Air-con or fan rooms.

If they replace a staff member or two, Smile Beach could be a good option. 500+ baht.
