Hotel berhampiran Khao Sok Lake, Ban Ta Khun

Quiet isolated location met expectations. The price tag seemed justified considering the amenities provided. First and foremost, the air conditioning system was functional just, adding to the aircon challenges, the lack of insulation exacerbated the heat Television enthusiasts, beware! The TV signal was virtually non-existent, rendering any hopes of entertainment futile. For those seeking a digital detox, this might be a blessing in disguise, but for most, it's a disappointing setback. Moreover, the resort's remote location proved to be a logistical challenge. Situated far from civilization, guests are left dependent on their vehicles or taxis to venture anywhere beyond the confines of the property. Be aware a bus or van from Surat Thani to Khao Sok national park does not come near the property. Double check your bookings in and out and I would not recommend any tight time schedules to the airport. However, amidst these shortcomings, one saving grace was the kindness of the staff. Despite the challenges, the staff remained courteous and accommodating, striving to mitigate the shortcomings of the establishment. The staff arranged all my transport albeit a little haphazardly. In conclusion, while the remote resort boasts a serene ambiance and amiable staff, the isolation in transport terms would require a traveler with vehicle. It is 5km from the dam and daily boat tours on the extensive lake amid magnificent karysts. Warning do not swim in the lake it's heavily polluted with sewerage.

ในวันสุดสัปดาห์เลยเลือกสถานที่ พักผ่อน จังหวัดสุราษฎร์ธานี 2วัน1คืน ในวิวแบบธรรมชาติติดแม่น้ำ มีสวนผลไม้รอบๆ ช่วงที่ไประหว่างเข้าพัก มีฝนตกเล็กน้อยทำให้ได้บรรยากาศไปอีกแบบ ภายในห้องกว้างขวาง มีที่อาบน้ำแบบ open are ได้ฟิวอีกแบบ แนะนำใครสายธรรมชาติ พนักงานน่ารักทุกคน พูดจาดีมาก บริการดี ส่วนมากน่าจะเป็นเจ้าของหรือครอบครัวที่ดูแลเอง

Номер старый, рванные полотенца, сломанные доски на балконе при входе. Хорошее расположение если ты на своем автомобиле.

We have just completed a wonderful stay here. The setting, overlooking the Khao Sok rain forest and overlooking the river, is simply magical. The rooms are pretty small, but lovely, clean and air conditioned. The restaurant has a relatively limited range, but the food is delicious and great value - helpful because unless you have your own transport you are relatively cut off. But for 3 days, it was a simple, tranquil, idyllic base for our Khao Sok excursions. Most of all, the staff were a delight - so friendly, helpful and welcoming. It's a pretty intimate stay, where you are with the staff a lot through all your meals, but that suited us, and we were sorry to leave, and very grateful for the warmth and hospitality that we received during our stay.

Overall not a bad stay. Swimming pool is much smaller than what it looks like in the pictures. Nothing close around the location so walking to another restaurant is not possible and found the food at the restaurant on site disappointing. They also charge double for transfers to ferry port and airports. Room was comfortable and views were great though.

We immensely enjoyed our time at 500 Rai. It’s a very unique place, especially if you like being in the water a lot. The views from the resort are extraordinary. We stayed in the deluxe suite and had the best time. Our activity guide was Phoo and we did a great waterfall hike and several boat rides. Thicha and Got were very attentive and kind during meal times, and it was a nice variety of food. The staff generally were very attentive and helpful. We had a great stay; recommended for anyone looking to really disconnect for a couple of days.
