On the hill above Patong
Four-tier infinity pool over the bay.
Baan Yin Dee sits on the hillside above Patong Beach — a 21-room boutique resort with teak rooms and a cascading, four-tier infinity pool that looks straight out over Patong Bay and the Andaman. The pool is shared across the property: guests swim the tiers together, and selected rooms open onto the water (Deluxe Pool Access and Pool Suites).
We do not offer private pool villas or private plunge pools. What we offer instead is height, quiet, and a single hillside pool system designed for the view — the same view that has defined this hill since 2000.
For couples and honeymooners who want Patong's energy without sleeping on Bangla Road, this is the point of the hill: sea view, infinity water, and a small resort scale.
Couples
A romantic boutique stay above Patong.
Baan Yin Dee is built for quiet romance in Patong — not a mega-resort, not a beach-club hotel. Twenty-one teak rooms, hillside sea views, floating breakfast on the pool, private sala dinners, and sunset at RICE on the terrace. Many guests come for honeymoons, anniversaries, and the kind of stay where the evening ends with the bay turning gold.
Guests describe the hill as small, personal, and serious about the view, and Tripadvisor ranks us #10 of 447 hotels in Patong. Bookings and questions go to reservations@baanyindee.com, or WhatsApp Tina, our General Manager.

Tom Yum Goong
Thailand’s classic hot-and-sour soup, built on Andaman prawn heads — lemongrass, galangal, lime leaf, bird’s-eye chilli.

Google"The hilltop location was perfect — quiet, breezy, with the best sunset view of Patong we found in three weeks of looking. Every staff member knew our names by day two. The floating breakfast on the pool is a must."
