Hotel berhampiran Ratchaprapha, Ban Ta Khun

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 spend one night here before heading to the nearby CheoLan Pier. The hotel consist of 10 quite luxurious small Villas - each with Spa and Balcony with fantastic view over the mountains near Khao Sok national park. It is a very quaint and romantic place to stay . Nothing much going on . The staff was young people - with limited language English language skills. They made up for it by being very accommodating and friendly, and managed all request after some use of hand language and Google translate. The food for dinner seems to be delivered from the outside - so one has to pre order for a specific time. In conclusion - it was a wonderful luxurious stay with brilliant view - and very friendly nice staff

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.

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.

There are many good things to say about this place. Beautiful location and excellent quality food and staff. I recommend this place!

We stayed at the Belong Jim resort for 2 nights whilst visiting Khao Sok. The hotel has good facilities, with the rooms is various blocks, each having their own pool, so a degree of privacy.. The rooms are quite modern and very spacious, with large comfy bed, TV with good options from True TV, settee, an excellent fridge/mini bar, and a well equipped shower room. Downsides from the room were… no safety deposit box.. and the air conditioning took forever to cool the room down (probably due to its location, combined with gaps around the entrance door..). The bar/dining area is excellent, with a variety of seating selections.. Inside (with A/C), out in the terrace with spectacular views, or in the entertainment area where there was live music both nights. There’s also a pool table. Food menu was extensive, and what we had was very very good. A good drinks selection also, with Happy Hour on cocktails.. 2 for the price of 1.. All F&B was well priced, and definitely value for money. The breakfast was a touch on the basic side, not having a great deal of variety..which was a bit disappointing after the excellent food in the evening.. An egg station wouldn’t be too difficult to implement, and there were plenty of staff on hand, so utilising one of them for the 2 hour breakfast slot would be a massive positive to the breakfast. All in all, a very good hotel and a very enjoyable stay. Would definitely recommend staying here.

This hotel is in Ban Ta Kun. If you do not have a car it is inaccessible. Has a nice pool and good view. No food and convenient stalls near the hotel. Need to walk 15 mins to get food. Only can order tuk tuk to get to Khao Sok National Park or the Pier.
