PhilaFrom the moment we arrived until the day we checked out, every detail of our stay exceeded our expectations. The resort is absolutely beautiful, our room was stunning, and waking up each morning to watch the sunrise from our private pool was an experience we’ll never forget. It felt like the perfect escape from city life.
What really sets this resort apart, however, is the incredible staff. Every single person we interacted with was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our stay special. A special thank you to Tom Cruise, one of our buggy drivers, who always greeted us with such kindness and made us feel so welcome. We were genuinely disappointed that we didn’t get the chance to say goodbye before we left.
I also have a nut allergy, and the level of care the team showed was exceptional. They provided me with an allergy card to present at restaurants, and when they made a reservation for us at the neighbouring resort, they had already informed the restaurant about my allergy. It was such a thoughtful touch that made me feel safe and well looked after.
This is true five-star hospitality. Thoughtful, attentive, and effortless from start to finish. We’ve had nothing but wonderful things to say about our stay, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

This is my third time in Khao Lak, but my first stay at this hotel. Overall, it was excellent! The staff in every department were friendly and cheerful. There are plenty of activities at the hotel, making it perfect for anyone who wants to spend their vacation relaxing without getting bored.
The hotel has a large main pool and separate pools for each building.
Breakfast was great with a wide variety of choices. There was also a fresh coffee machine that looked quite standard and good quality.
The hotel property is quite deep. If you walk from the front of the hotel to the beach, it's a bit of a trek. If you have luggage, you'll have to drag it a fair distance. However, the hotel offers a buggy service to pick you up from your building; you can call for it anytime. But when we checked out, we were in a hurry, so we ended up walking and dragging our bags ourselves because the staff said the buggy would take about 10 minutes to arrive.
Another thing is that during checkout, the staff mentioned we had to wait about 7 minutes for housekeeping to check the room (so allow extra time if you're in a rush).
If I have the chance, I would definitely stay here again.

Such a beautiful hotel! The rooms are really cozy, and the view is absolutely stunning! From our room, we could see the pool, garden, sea, and even the jungle. The beach is great, and there are several pools to choose from. Breakfast is served outdoors, which isn't super comfortable in the heat, but it's quite varied with lots of fruit. I do wish they'd upgrade the fitness center to be more modern and add more equipment. Other than that, everything was superb. It's conveniently located close to town with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby, yet the area itself is very quiet.

Kanny RosyThe hotel is quiet with a great atmosphere and many photo spots. It's not far from the beach. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming, especially Pinky at the front desk, Phet at Green Mango restaurant, and Dew and Gink at Patio restaurant, who were all very hospitable throughout our stay. We'll definitely come back if we have the chance! 💕

The hotel is a 7-minute walk from the beach. I enjoyed walking to Nang Thong Beach along a dirt road through the abandoned hotel grounds and forest. There you'll see hens and chicks, roosters, cows, and coconut palms. Breakfasts are monotonous. The rooms are large and spacious. There's plenty of seating—two rattan armchairs, two chairs, and a stool—a rarity in Thailand. There's a large TV where you can watch your own movies from a USB drive. There's hot water!
I loved everything.

I had a nice stay at Khao Lak Marriott Resort & Spa overall. The resort is quite new, clean, and beautifully designed, with plenty of space to relax. I also really liked the variety of activities available, so you can easily spend most of the day at the resort without having to go out.
The service was generally good. Most of the staff were friendly, polite, and helpful, and I felt well taken care of. The breakfast was also good, with a decent variety of food, and the breakfast team provided very attentive service.
There are a few small things that could be improved. I arrived quite late at night, and the check-in process was a little slow. The reception team seemed slightly confused at first, and I also noticed that some staff at Reception were wearing slippers during the night, which felt a little unusual compared with the more professional appearance during the daytime. Keeping the grooming standard consistent at Reception would help create a better first impression.
Other than these minor points, I enjoyed my stay. Overall, it’s a good resort for a relaxing getaway, with nice rooms, a pleasant atmosphere, good facilities, and plenty of activities. Not perfect, but overall a pleasant experience and somewhere I would consider staying again.

Being a Marriott chain hotel, it accepts Bonvoy, and I was impressed with every service. The front desk staff provided excellent recommendations for the hotel's facilities and activities. I participated in the morning bicycling tour to the Moken village, which had a lovely atmosphere despite some rain.
The room was beautifully decorated with complete amenities. The bathroom was spacious and airy, with clear separate zones and a bathtub. Breakfast could get crowded and chaotic if you went after 8:00 AM. The food taste was average, but the staff provided excellent service, even mixing drinks for guests. The facilities are comprehensive. From 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, there's a happy hour for cocktails by the sea, and the bakery offers a 50% discount.
Overall, I was very impressed. As a Bonvoy member, I also received a late checkout. I will definitely return again if I have the opportunity.

Guest UserEverything was excellent! The pool was nice and clean, the staff provided great service, and the spa was amazing. Fighter (the staff member) took excellent care of me. It was quiet and not chaotic at all. However, I have to deduct a small point because when I checked into my room, I noticed a slight musty smell.

Khaolak Wanaburee Resort is an ideal place for those who appreciate nature, comfort, and tranquility.
Pros: The hotel boasts a large, well-maintained area with a beautiful landscape design. It has everything: direct beach access, a picturesque stream, and even a lake. The rooms are very clean, modern, and truly meet the standards of a 5-star hotel. Daily housekeeping ensures impeccable cleanliness. The charming bridges connecting different parts of the property add a special touch. Walking across them feels like being in untouched jungles. The beach is well-equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas, and there’s a cozy beachside café nearby where you can have lunch or dinner while enjoying the sea view. The resort’s territory is full of life: you’ll see many butterflies and even friendly monitor lizards wandering around, adding to the tropical paradise vibe.
Cons: Breakfasts could be more varied, especially in terms of fresh pastries.
Good to know: The nearest 7/11 or town café is about a 15-minute walk away (there’s a sidewalk). If you prefer not to walk, a taxi costs 100 baht.
The closest self-service laundry is a 15-minute drive away (400 baht).
Overall, Khaolak Wanaburee Resort is a perfect choice for those looking to relax in harmony with nature while enjoying comfort and quality service. Highly recommended!
