Anyone Heard Of This Visa Run?

[TRIPxCORE]

While in Bangkok recently I overheard a couple of British chaps discussing this island they went to for a visa run. It was a Burmese island which you can take a boat to from Thailand and on the island there is a nice resort and casino. They were mentioning it was a nice place to make a run and that they actually enjoyed going there as opposed to other places. Anyone know any specifics about it?

Do a search for ranong visa run to get details. My friend did trip last month and was happy. Really depends how much time you have to get to Ranong to make worthwhile.

The resort/casino is called Andaman Club (do a google search), it's very pleasant.

A bus from the Bangkok Southern Bus terminal to Ranong on a VIP32 costs around 750 Baht return, it takes 8 hours.
