Best Hotels in Khao Lak

The service was impeccable; the staff were patient, responsible, and very nice. The environment and facilities were excellent, and the cleanliness was good

One of the best hotels near Phuket. Everything is top-notch.

Even just being able to briefly explain the key points would have been helpful. It seems the hotel doesn't see the need to train its front desk staff in Chinese due to the relatively low number of Chinese tourists

Since we don't have scuba diving certifications, we don't know how amazing the scuba diving was, but if you're only going for snorkeling, it's about the same level as Saipan, far inferior to the Maldives

Conversely, because it's not a Chinese-friendly hotel, most Chinese tourists are less inclined to choose it, creating a mutually reinforcing cycle that's unlikely to be resolved anytime soon

I was pleasantly surprised to encounter two non-frontline staff members who proactively approached me in Chinese to ask if I needed assistance and could even have a simple conversation

Very good hotel for families with kids. Great variety of pools and super diverse and rich kids club. Breakfast is good but not the best, same for the experienced in other hotels along the trip, probably Thai standards

Location is ok but not the best. It located at the end of the business road, and walking from hotel lobby to the road is few minutes due to hotel size

They could make small adjustments such as not putting all the kids plates and cutlery underneath the drinks station at breakfast creating quite a bit of congestion but obviously that’s just a small detail

We had a pool access room this time which was lovely. So nice to have a quieter swim in the afternoon after the mayhem and fun of the slides etc. This was our second visit and we had a great time

An amazing hotel with great staff. The restaurants are just great The pools and the beach are so much fun The spa ....oh what a relaxing place I just wanna go again and again Love it ❤️

We have an enjoyable stay in The Sands. This is a kids friendly hotel, my son love the water park, pool, room. Environment very nice, breakfast have a lot of choice

The breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options, and the restaurants served excellent food throughout the day. The pool area and beach were stunning and well maintained, perfect for relaxing

I liked the hotel. The breakfast was good for 3, but they have gluten-free bread and pancakes upon request – that's great!!! The staff is friendly, Benjamin is a great manager! Thank you.

Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations and provided a truly memorable experience. We would definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and high-quality stay in Khao Lak

I had a wonderful 10-day holiday at this hotel and was very impressed with the service. Everything about the room changes was handled well, and all services were friendly and professional

This stay was truly relaxing, and I was very happy with the attentive service from every staff member who took great care of me throughout my stay

There are many shops and restaurants nearby, and the sunset view at the hotel is absolutely beautiful

This is our second time staying at this hotel. We really like the location, the grounds, the incredibly friendly staff. There are several children's pools for the youngest guests. The room is a bit old, but clean

The beach directly at the hotel is not ideal for swimming, I recommend taking a taxi to Coconut beach - we did that twice and loved it. We also booked a day trip to Similan Islands which I highly recommend

Also, all the staff are friendly and greet you with bright smiles. I'm especially grateful to the reception staff, Manager PHUMI(?) and the female receptionist GHO(?)

Very pleasant stay overall with great surrounding and amenities. The water flow was a bit weak for the shower. Restaurant food might be better out of the hotel but it’s good enough during a rainy lazy day

Their kindness and support made our vacation even more enjoyable and wonderful. Thanks to the manager who even came to see us off in a taxi. I'd love to visit again if I get the chance

Pools are various and the beach just in front easily accessible. Beach has some flies but we experienced similar at other more upscale hotels in the area as well

Except for the fact that there were a lot of people, everything else was good. I wanted to extend my stay but the price of the same room type increased by 700.

Great location and grounds with mature trees and well tended gardens. Pool and beach have plenty of seating scattered in the gardens. Food was good served in 2 restaurants

We enjoyed our stay of 8 nights very much! When arrived our booked rooms were not ready and we got an upgrade for 1 night for the pool villa and also a voucher for one dinner in the hotel restaurant,which was amazing

The beach area is beautiful and not crowded at all, perfect for long walks and watching the sunset. Breakfast had a good variety of options, both Thai and international food. Everything was fresh and well prepared

We also tried the restaurant for dinner once, and the food was good with fair prices for a resort. The staff were friendly, polite, and always willing to help

We always had enough space for our own, the rooms are big, there are enough seats at the beach and the pool and also enough tables at the breakfast buffet. We checked out very early and our luggage was picked up in time

I stayed at Graceland Khaolak Beach Resort during the rainy season, and I have to say — it was a great experience! Many people think that the rainy season in Thailand is not the best time to visit, but here it was absolutely fine

We extended our stay the minute we saw the beach. The resort is old and has its old charm but the service is great and people are friendly and beach is just incredible and lots of restaurants options around the resort

Thank you for that, Snow! The resort offers beautiful nature, very polite staff, and very nice restaurants. We only had breakfast included, but we went for dinner a couple of times and it was absolutely worth it

In the main restaurant during breakfast, they serve real coffee from a La Marzocco espresso machine, and as a coffee weirdo, this was definitely one of the best things ever. Everything else you can see in the pictures

When we arrived, the first thing we hoped for (after our Bali experience) was a welcome drink with a cold aromatic towel — in Bali it was warm

Then we were lucky to have Snow as our receptionist, a very polite and humble Thai girl. She upgraded our stay to a swim-up suite, which became the highlight of our vacation

Since it is still a newer resort, all the facilities are in excellent shape

This resort was definitely one of the standout parts of our stay in Khao Lak. The rooms are modern, very well equipped, and spotlessly clean – everything feels comfortable and thoughtfully designed

Definitely a 10/10! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We were here for a group retreat and every aspect of our experience was amazing

Food-wise, it’s worth noting that hotel restaurant prices are significantly higher compared to local options. That said, the buffet breakfast and especially the dinner are very generous

We stayed at Avani+ Khao Lak for 2 nights. It was a memorable trip for us. The staffs are very helpful with good service mind. There are many activities to do in the hotel. The arcade room has quite a few games to play

The dinner buffet really stands out with its wide variety of dishes – there’s something for everyone, and the selection is impressively extensive. One of the biggest highlights, though, is the beach

The price was way too expensive during Chinese New Year – over 2,000-3,000 baht for a hotel that usually costs a few hundred. The hotel's BBQ dinner buffet wasn't good either, and there's nothing around the area

Lounging on a deckchair, sipping a cold drink and feeling the sea breeze was incredibly comfortable. Our room had an amazing view, though sadly we didn't get a complimentary upgrade

Nice location, but beach have lots of shells at shore. Hotel looks nice, but needs some maintenance though F&B mediocre apart of breakfast. Very tentative guest service team.

Phang Nga Bay was about 5 degrees cooler than the main island, so even under the blazing sun, spending half a day in the connecting pool wasn't hot at all

Absolutely top notch stay. Kids loved it, beach is amazing and staff were super kind and supportive. We will stay here again next year.

We ate dinner outside the hotel, which was great value for money – huge lobsters and crabs weren't expensive and were super fresh

My toddler loved the 2 separate pools that were perfect for children. Massages by the spa staff were really good too. Perfect retreat location to relax

Lovely hotel with good layout for 2 adults and 2 kids in the room but room (family suite) smelt damp and we found glass medicine ampoules in the refrigerator which alarmed us but the front desk did not seem bothered by.

Stayed for 3 nights at this beautiful hotel. Special thanks to Ryan from the Reception who helped us find a room that was better suited to my toddlers requirements. This helped make our visit much easier & happier

Breakfast had so many options & everything was tasty. The friendly restaurant staff are working hard to keep everyone happy. Pool & beach area & all the grounds were well maintained

Breakfast is very good and has varied to choose. The Resort has so many activities such as theater in the garden, rubber archery, bicycle, badminton, etc. Very nice property with excellent staff and service

The environment is elegant and close to the sea, with complete facilities

Outstanding hotel with the best food we have ever enjoyed in a resort and top class sports facilities. Evening entertainment is a little limited but tjat wasnt pur reason for booking.

Andreas and his team in the kitchen certainly worked their magic to create some amazingly tasty food. Throughout our holiday we was made to feel really welcome by all who worked here. Will hopefully come back again

We had a great stay. From check-in to check-out, it was a fantastic vacation. The Robinson team does a wonderful job. Thank you!

Hotel up to Robinson Club standards! 👌 Great sports activities and excellent service. The food was also incredibly delicious.

The service is good but not exceptional. The breakfast that is included in the room price is really good. The maid was really nice and provided us with extra bottled water. There were two weaknesses for me

Top service, amazing food and lovely hotel

It took ages to get a hairdryer. I felt a bit discriminated against as a Chinese person. The environment was pretty good, but there weren't many activities

Aside from lounging by the hotel pool, I wasn't sure what else to do. The restaurant was nice and the food was delicious. It's a good spot if you just want to relax, enjoy the sea view, and swim

I highly recommend the deli cafe, I couldn't stop at just three cups a day! The only minor drawback was the service, which was a little slow, but I noticed there were only a few staff members who were clearly overwhelmed

However, all the service staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. There were two particularly nice ladies at the front desk who helped with every little detail. The hotel also arranged taxis very quickly

Absolutely loved this hotel! The design and views perfectly matched my aesthetic, and it was incredibly photogenic. The hotel beach has super fine sand, and swimming in the ocean felt very safe

Overall, I'm very satisfied and would definitely visit again

Lovely and spacious balcony. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good, lot of variety. We love to spend time by pool side.

Excellent happy hours - can stay for the entire day at their little pool/beach front area

Idyllic, with kindness spread by the employees working there - you literally feel embraced and held by this place. The quiet swimming pool and the ponds with its views are my two highlights

If you are looking for a place to go to really relax, maybe recover after a burn out or to cleanse from the city hustle and bustle - this hotel will be perfect

The pool has many features like jacuzzi parts, platforms that you can lie on if you want to remain in water but get some sun, and bar stools

I could spend days just sitting there, enjoying the sounds of the little waterfalls and watching the pond fish swim around and play

Food was good in the breakfast area too, lot of different cuisine ranging from traditionally western dishes to more eastern Asian cuisine. I think we stayed in room 3342 and it was amazing too

The balcony area was really nice, very spacious and the cleaners were very proactive in being efficient. One of the best hotels/holidays I’ve been on so far

Hotel receptionist Pang was very kind enough to take my photos on the viewpoint area so if she could read this I would be very appreciative!! :) all the staff in the hotel were very friendly

Unfortunately at the moment it's a "if you can't beat them join them" so be at the beach before 8. 30!! Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this hotel

I forgot to write this! We stayed at La Vela from 17th October 2025 to 30th October 2025. Our flight was Emirates from Manchester - Dubai - Phuket

Kokulo beach club is on the main sea front and serves cocktails and meals which are very good

Great hotel but not much entertainment, the hotel restaurant is excellent, but expensive. Very clean well maintained, the staff is friendly.

i recently spent 2 weeks here, and my 60th birthday. The hotel is lovely, the food a staff are amazing, as is the location. We went on lots of trips out to elephant sanctuaries, James Bond island, temples and blessings

The whole experience and holiday was excellent. Thank you very much Apsara hotel and lovely staff , we will be back

Families with young kids may wish for a resort with more water slides, etc but for a more adult group, Apsara Beachfront Resort and Villa is an excellent place to put your feet up and enjoy the good life

Apsara Beachfront Resort and Villa was an excellent choice. We had a villa with its own pool accessible from both rooms, a central living area and an outdoor shower

The hotel guests are mostly English or English speaking, in contrast to many others in Thailand which are seemingly dominated by the Russian hordes. Everything you could possibly want in a holiday

Food, accommodation and especially staff are very very good. Loved my time there and would go back anytime!

It was a lovely experience. The villa accomodation was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed the restaurant service and the massages. The staff were so friendly.

A special thank you to Bom at reception for his professionalism, diligence, and consistently warm welcome and farewell — he even remembered our names throughout our stay! We also want to recognise K

Super nice hotel with a great location in Khao Lak. The hotel restaurant is overpriced. A scoop of industrial ice cream costs more than artisanal Italian ice cream in an ice cream parlor in Germany.

Perfect location next to a beautiful beach. Not very crowded and loads of spaces to lie out in deck chairs or on the sand. Hotel staff are excellent, super helpful and kind

The resort layout is excellent, spacious, peaceful, and beautifully maintained, with direct beachfront access that truly showcases Khao Lak’s charm

It was my birthday when I was there and the staff gave me a cake and the cleaner did some lovely towel art. The waters is very much an adult hotel and we felt that all the guests were very respectful of each other

The location is excellent being a five minute walk into town with many restaurants and bars to choose from

Really loved our swim up room. Felt like you had your own private pool. It was all so spotlessly clean. All the staff were so lovely and friendly. You never passed them without being greeted

The gardens were so well manicured The choice at breakfast was very varied. You can't possibly complain about the choice, there was something for everyone

In total, you get very good value for money in this hotel

Pools and rooms are amazing also a nice warm welcome from reception. Close to bars and bars and restaurants. Our go to bar was “The Nut House” ice cold beer full range of sport

I already asked to change my room which reception were very helpful and sent someone to show me other rooms. I found another room which initially seemed better but was in the process of being cleaned

Unfortunately they did not fix the problem and simply rolled up a towel next to the shower door. Although staff responded promptly to any complaints, nothing was actually rectified

After inspecting the room i noticed the toilet seat had stains and was of a low quality. The pool area was not clean and had many stains, also the table outside was stained

The shower leaked each time we used it and created a pool of water covering the bathroom floor, i reported this to reception who quickly sent out engineers

The pool had loads of bugs and the light was flickering. I informed reception, who quickly sent someone to clean the pool and repair the light

Breakfast had a large selection, although a bit pricey it was worth the cost

Breakfast wasn't the best but perfectly acceptable- variety of rice or noodles and congee everyday, fresh salad and fruit, eggs made to order, variety of bread for toast, chicken sausages, ham (warm in water - looked a bit grim) and baked beans

2 sun beds on the balcony and a little ladder jnto the infinity pool which is the biggest and deepest in the hotel. Pool was a lovely temperature - refreshing but not cold and we had almost to ourselves most days

The beach area is small but it was red flag for the sea when we were there but you can have a nice walk along the beach (well worth stopping at Nana's for a fruit shake)

Cosy hotel, 50 metres from the Andaman sea, the excellent Breakfast, the sea is clean unlike other areas of Thailand, the hotel is situated in the national Park, Kho Lak

Lovely little hotel in quiet season. We stayed for 7 nights at the end of June and had a lovely time. We paid £60 more for a deluxe pool access room which was fantastic

They offered us an upgrade when we arrived but we preferred the room we had booked. The rooms are spacious with a table and 2 comfy chairs. Bathrooms have a huge concrete tub and a separate shower

The hotel is well suited for children. Rooms with direct pool access are amazing, I recommend spend a bit more money and choose this room type. Main pool is busy.

Really nice hotel in great location. The 2 bedroom rooms are huge though its about 10-15 m8ns walk to the restaurant main pool and beach as its a big hotel.

It would be great if they could add more stations to make the service quicker. Spa treatments are wonderful The staff were generally friendly and attentive, though the restaurant staff seemed a bit overloaded at times

Loved it! The room was spacious, the pool was beautiful and convenient. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the staff were friendly.

The experience at La Flora was great. Staffs were really welcoming and friendly. Lovely clean beach, buffet breakfast was great. Had a great staff. The only complaint I have is the smell of the drainage from the toilet.

The hotel has some pros and cons: Pros: - Rooms are a decent size and clean with nice, small balconies - The breakfast is good and not crowded with loads of options - They make a lot of effort with evening entertainment and special events like the welcome drinks and BBQs - Staff are excellent and friendly - Spa is great value if you choose the special packages - Muai Thai boxing looks fun (although...

We usually stay at other hotels, but we decided to try the Ramada! We loved the hotel – it's compact, comfortable, the staff is very friendly, and it has one of the best beaches on Khao Lak

Wonderful hotel. Comfortable room. Good breakfast. Russian programs available. Attentive staff. The stay was pleasant.

This was one of the best trips we've had in a while

The hotel offers free activities – yoga, carving, batik, napkin folding, color-coding, and much more! If you're looking for the company of Russian tourists, if you're looking for a Turkish-style vacation—constant parties, drinking, and adventure—then Ramada is definitely not for you

The food was delicious, and it was great to see options for kids as well. The pool, garden, and overall atmosphere were very relaxing and enjoyable. 👏👏 I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Khaolak

The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable. 👍 What impressed us the most was the kindness and friendliness of the staff. Everyone was very helpful and always smiling😀which made us feel truly welcome
