The Haven Khao Lak

We had as an couple an excellent and very friendly stay at the Haven Khao Lak. Hotel itself is beautiful and the general feeling was very peaceful and there was this sense of serenity. Pool is excellent, very large and you definitely can do long distance swimming practice there if you want. Pool was clean also. Enjoyed it a lot. Room was beautiful and good quality. Beds gave us lovely sleeps. Air-conditioning works very well and you can adjust it how you like. We didn't hear any noises from other rooms, it was peaceful and nice. Gym was good. Hotel activities were excellent and fun, highly recommend having them, you can get to know with other hotel visitors that way also if you want. Breakfast was well made, coffee is served to the table. Service excellent! I liked this restaurant a lot, food had very good taste. Thanks to the chefs. We actually visited this hotel's restaurant quite often while staying in the hotel, excellent surroundings and service again. You also get free ride to certain restaurant from the hotel if you want to visit other places also. There are also few other places to eat 500m walk from the hotel. We didn't go to them but heard that those are good options also. One of the best things is the beach, it's so peaceful and quiet, there is in front of the hotel on the beach some benches and hammocks and swings, think about watching the sunset there without any restaurant buzzing or other things, just peace and a painting that slowly changes, light breeze and ocean making it's sounds. You can rent a scooter from the hotel like we did, no problems, easy and quiet drive to the main road. There are some rental firms at Khao Lak that also deliver scooter to the hotel for little price if you like that option. Good secure parking for the scooter. The staff deserves extra mention as they were very friendly and helpful, if we had any problems they were very willingly to help us out.

Excellent hotel. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable, the bathroom was also very clean. Eveything you needed was provided free of cost - beach towels, beach mat, beach bag, drinking water, sandals etc. Breakfast was as great, fresh eggs made as you like and lots of sweet and savoury options and barista style coffee! The pool for the rooms and the main pool were kept clean and bug free. The evening restaurant food was lovely with a range of options, the Thai food was delicious but there were also more western options. The staff were fantastic - specifically a gentleman name William (a member of the bar staff) was exceptionally friendly and made our stay. Free shuttle bus that took you into the centre or to the market was really appreciated. Couldn’t recommend this hotel enough!

Staff were fabulous and very accomdating - nothing was too much trouble. Communal areas were fabulous, pool, swim up bars, reception, breakfast dining. We did a bike ride excursion which was also great. Food was pretty good quality too - breakfast had lots of variety and the Thai food we ate from the restaurant was good if a bit more expensive than outside, but that is to be expected. Western food wasn't so good - we had soggy chips the one time we chose soemthing off the Western menu! Room was huge and bed was confortable - water pressure was pretty good and everything was very clean.

The room was renovated, super clean and very big, and there was no kind of noise to disturb doing our stay. The staff in the reception and all the maids were so kind and helpful all the time. The massage treatments in the spa were fantastic! The beach is very undisturbed with few people - unlike other areas in Thailand - and the pool areas was huge 🤩

It's a swimming pool with a hotel attached! The pool is enormous! And there is more than one. We had a poolside room for a couple of days and enjoyed sliding in and out at our leisure. It was really quite private too despite sharing it with our neighbours. The breakfast was pretty good but too although not the best we had in Thailand.
