We spent the second week of our TUI 3 week multi destination stay at this hotel in Khaolak. We transferred from Krabi and the journey took approx 2.5 hours. We arrived at the hotel at 2pm to a warm welcome. We were shown to our room overlooking a rooftop of plant saucers containing stale water and a grubby wall. We requested a move and after a few minutes this was sorted out. Our next room overlooked the pool an bar area and was much better. The hotel and grounds are beautiful and traditionally Thai. However, with that comes problems with the water pressure in the shower and poor AC which when its as humid as it was is a problem. As people have commented there is very little storage space for clothes etc. WIFI is ok on the whole. Towels and bedding were excellent and the room was kept very clean. The room had a lovely balcony with recliners. The only english speaking tv channel was BBC News if that is your thing. There is tea and coffee and two bottles of water daily in the room. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice and staff member Kris was always friendly, smiling and helpful and is a credit to the hotel. The pool was lovely for swimming but some tiles are coming away in places and some decking requires attention as coming loose. It was quiet and peaceful around the pool although there was a bit of sun lounger saving near the end of the week. Pool towels were delivered daily to the room. There are a few rickety steps that need careful manoeuvering around the hotel. The beach is less than a 5 minute walk away and is a lovely wide sandy beach. It was a quiet beach but we were surprised with how much plastic rubbish had been washed up on the beach and not cleaned away. There are no loungers on the beach and very little shade. Next time I think we would book a hotel that backs onto the beach and has loungers and umbrellas. Town is approx 10 mins walk slightly uphill. There are lots of bars and restaurants along the main strip most of which have Wifi our favourite was called Tiffys Cafe lovely Thai food and so friendly. Whilst at the hotel we did a brilliant excursion to Khaolak Elephant home with a guided tour via GetYourGuide app. Overall we had a nice week at the hotel it just fell down on the poor AC and low water pressure and some required maintenance issues. All the staff were so friendly and welcoming.
