The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani

8/10 Good

The Leaf On The Sands by Katathani

The Leaf On The Sands by Katathani

10/10 Excellent

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Stay – Perfect for a Restful Vacation I had a wonderful stay at The Leaf On The Sands by Katathani. The hotel has a beautiful tropical atmosphere with lush, well-maintained gardens that create a peaceful and relaxing environment. It feels like a quiet oasis while still being conveniently close to restaurants, shops, and Nang Thong Beach. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, with everything needed for a pleasant stay. The staff were consistently friendly, welcoming, and eager to help, making the experience even more enjoyable. The swimming pools were clean and inviting, providing the perfect place to unwind after a leisurely walk on the beach or exploring the local area. Breakfast offered a good variety of fresh food, giving you a great start to each day. This hotel is especially ideal for travelers seeking a true rest vacation. If your goal is to slow down, disconnect from everyday stress, sleep well, enjoy peaceful surroundings, relax by the pool, take beach walks, or treat yourself to a traditional Thai massage, this is an excellent choice. The quiet atmosphere makes it easy to recharge both physically and mentally without feeling rushed. The location is another major advantage. It's within easy walking distance of the beach, local markets, restaurants, cafés, and massage spas, allowing you to enjoy Khao Lak at your own pace without needing transportation. Overall, The Leaf On The Sands offers outstanding value for money. Whether you're loo"

JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort and Spa

JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"First time in Thailand, and this was perfect for me and my son. After a long tired travel we arrived to be greeted with a cold towel, a fresh scoop of ice cream and the kindest people. The staff is truly amazing and this property is very impressive. It is HUGE and there’s an infinity pool that goes all the way around. Just a few steps from the Andaman sea, swim up bars, excellent food, 24 hour room service, daily maid service, wildlife, and massages all at the fingertips. Id need more space to write about the flora- because it is EXQUISITE. Coconuts, frangiapani, lotus in the ponds. True tropical paradise with all the comfort of home and then some. Rent a bike. Play pool. Go swim. Take a cab to the night market. Meet the local monitor lizard. Paradise."

Khaolak Merlin Resort

Khaolak Merlin Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay at Merlin - in fact we are still here as we extended our stay with the hotel because we decided we didn’t need to go anywhere else for a truly magical and relaxing stay. We feel immersed in nature - surrounded by incredibly beautiful trees and we saw a slow loris during our night tour! The pools are so lush with vegetation all around them - we spent hours just milling around in what felt like a jungle pool, complete with waterfalls! The staff are all so lovely and super attentive, but with the most relaxed and easy going manner. I found myself quite envious of the people who work here - they honestly seem to be very happy in their work and well looked after. We didn’t go all inclusive and slightly regret that, as it wasn’t a lot more on top and means that, even if you only eat here half the time, it will probably be worth it. We are already trying to figure out when we can come back! Thank you so much everyone at Merlin - we will see you again as soon as possible! 😊"

Khaolak Bay Front Resort

Khaolak Bay Front Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely resort right on the beach at the south end of Khao Lak. The rooms are older but well maintained, and comfortable with lots of space, including huge bathrooms. I loved the beautiful grounds and get-away-from-it-all vibe of the property. My room rate included the buffet breakfast, which had a large variety of western and Asian choices along with an egg station/omelet bar. Nice environmentally friendly touch with the glass water bottles in the rooms too. Cheers."
