酒店很大，也有很大的小童游泳區，設施很完善，而且是新酒店，住起來很舒服，所以很喜歡，下次去還會選擇這家酒店。

Traditional hotel. What you see is what you get. The food is good and the hotel is clean. Management is present and the beach is perfect with easy acess to massage and water tools like SUP paddleboards for rent. What else to wish for? Great place close to Khao Lak sentrum.

Hotel situated on a hill. Rooms have a great view of the sea and beach. The room was small but ok for a short stay. There is a pool but rocks for the beach. The hotel is a long walk to the town and beach. I have lived in budget hotels for 2 years and will not return here.

I loved this place! Great room, great setting (I did feel a bit isolated, but if the hotel were in a more built-up area, it wouldn't be in such an idyllic setting), staff went INCREDIBLY helpful and nice (one time I broke one of their 'do not disturb' signs by accident - THEY apologised to ME, brought me a new one, and brought a plate of cakes as an apology!), great breakfast (there really is a lot - but some is hidden away in a refrigerated room which you may not notice). Speaking of the food (also excellent, by the way) - don't be put off by some more disparaging reviews on here! The food IS fresh, yes, the chicken may be more chewy than you're used to at home, not because it was hastily defrosted frozen food, but because they don't process food to the n*th degree in Thailand! Also, it IS cheap (I've included their prices for April 2024 in the photos). It may be a bit overpriced by Thai standards (you could get it half the price by spending half the day trekking into town and wasting most of the day), but you are in a resort - it's the same all the world over! Also, this place is great for wheelchairs - without the resort seeming in any way 'special' accommodation. I, myself, am a wheelchair user, but I think I was the only person there in a wheelchair - it really was a varied group (singles, young couples, young families, multi-generational families, and older couples). I was really impressed by how comprehensive the access was, without it standing out much - I had a massive room, grab rails around the toilet, wheel-in shower with a built-in stone bench with more grab rails, everywhere had ramps, there was both a slope in to the pool and a pool hoist, another disabled toilet by the pool, the pool-side shower even had a fixed seat, there were sunloungers reserved for those in wheelchairs, and a slope to the beach!

Service was good. Food poor. Chewy chicken satay, as though quickly defrosted aka student style. Frozen chips aka McCain. We’ve had such better food at the authentic beach bars near our hotel (Kantary Beach hotel and resort). However- View lovely.
