Find Resorts in Khao Lak, Thailand

Amazing place to visit, very nice and relaxed with very friendly locals and a large array of restaurants nearby serving both local and international cuisine.

nothing much going around the area,but good area for just relaxing, also for those who goes to Simillan or Surin island.

Sure a great spot for family retreat for to recharge worn out batteries, highly recommended. seeking busy nightlife and bars go to Phukhet or Phattaya.

Have been there before but didn't like it, this time however I quite enjoyed the relaxation and was happy, still need transport to get around though am lucky I have a car :-)

Lovely area, much more suited towards couples, but scuba divers should definitely go because the similian & surin islands are incredible! best diving I've ever done & I've done 50 + dives.

Khao Lak best beach is the coconut beach. White sand beach is full of expensive hotels where you can't rent chair and the waves are stronger.

The market (held Monday, Saturday and another week day) is interesting. Lots of cool Thai food and bargains to be had.

The area around Khao Lak is quite with nice beaches that arnt to bussy there are a few water falls in the area and you can easily get a speed boat out to similan islands.

We first visited Khao Lak in Feb 2004, just before the tsunami, and returned in Jan 2015. We were curious to see how things had changed in the intervening decade.

Designed to get Farangs to spend their money. You can't really blame them, either seeing as the westerners (I think mainly German and French whilst I was there) seem happy to spend their money on over inflated prices, therefore everybody else is obliged to spend over the odds too.

Don't miss a day trip to Similan or Ta Chai Island. They are gems of Thailand and close to Khao Lak main pier.

Khao Lak seems the place to be if you are plus 40 and coming from Germany, Russia or Britain. You will see too many white dudes with beer guts enjoying misserable western food while rolling on the beach.

Most places rebuilt after the 2004 Tsunami but everything still in a disorganized state. There has obviously been absolutely no planning done in laying out the town site and all the main activities are still along side of the main North/South highway.

Honestly, khao lak is more for travelers who likes to spend 70% of their time by beach or resort.. There's no shopping mall or night market like other parts of Thailand.

The tourist attraction is kinda boring compare to Phuket. Khao Lak is best for people looking for relax at the resort and beaches.

A place to go in Thailand that is peaceful and beautiful. Has everything you need just in a quitter version.

We were in the wet season so the whole place was virtually closed down. Lots of closed shops. Tours to Similian islands not running and I could go on.

the quite and small town which you can find some necessary stuff for your hotel and beach relaxation.

Better than the overdone patong karon beach stay which I did enjoy but its overun pesty hawkers with hard sell crowds .

Relaxing or adventure. It can be whatever you want it to be. Great beaches and water sports. Excellent food choices, European and Thai.

There are a few beaches and waterfalls in the area. Maybe you can rent a bike (200-300baht/day) and go around the area and explore.

Stunning area with stunning beaches. The perfect holiday if you divide you time between the craziness of Phuket (Patong, Kata etc) and the natural beauty and serenity of Khoa Lak.

En kiten stad där man kan förnöja sig med shopping och restaurang besök.Finns många småbutiker,(gott om sommarkläder) och restauranger

A really friendly town with mostly nice weather in summer has some magic attractive atmosphere. Unless it's raining the weather is nice.

The only reason to visit Khao Lak is to get to the islands for snorkeling or diving. It is not a fun spot, the beach is ok, but there are better ones on nearly any island.

This place has many nice 5 star hotels but very far from the shopping area. It would be great if you have your own transportation.

Loved it. Excellent value for money. The owner and general manager are very helpful and nice. It was a leisurely 15 minute walk to the beach with restaurants and shops along the way.

Khao Lak, not for us. It feels very "all over the place", and by this I mean you have some number of centers that are far enough apart to not walk so you have to take a cab or rent some vehicle.

Pakarang Beach is a great place to relax. Khao Lak, nice little town, near national parks and beaches.
