Ao Manao
Yes, but I haven't been for a few years so don't know what the accommodation is like now.
The main Ao Manao beach is on a military base which closes at 6pm. To the south and around the headland there is a small village with a couple of bungalows (though not much else) available for a few hundred baht a night.
Here is the beach:

Ao Manao
Seriously BG - what is Hor Mok?
And who's that bald dude Buksi?

A sprout is for life - not just for Christmas.
Dolphin Bay's a good spot, but IMO Ao Manao beats it quite comfortably. The beach at Ao Manao is more inviting and the water is cleaner - also more "greenish/blue". The restaurants are great value and the food is excellent.
For golf buffs, there's a 9 hole course on a military bases close by. No caddies, only trolleys and a round for 100B.
I don't think you'll be disappointed if you venture down there. It's only about an hour's drive.
