Hotels near Seastar ท่าเรือบ้านน้ำเค็ม, Takua Pa

The hotel has been newly renovated with a good swimming pool and excellent staff. The rooms are well-equipped, but the bedding wasn't very fragrant, and there were a few ants, probably because we were staying in a villa. For the first two nights, we stayed in a garden villa next to a room that was being renovated; it was quiet and peaceful. On the third night, we upgraded to a pool villa at an additional cost. The room was beautiful and fully equipped with modern power outlets and lighting, but we still found some ants. The pool was a good size for a family. I'd like to commend the staff for their exceptional service in all areas. The restaurant uses quality ingredients, and the staff at the pool bar were lovely and fun to chat with. We had the Saturday buffet, and the quality of the meat was outstanding. During our stay, it rained heavily for one of the two days. When we changed rooms, the buggy staff took great care of us from check-in until check-out. I even met the owner, who was very kind and waved goodbye. I will definitely come back again. Booking through Trip included a dinner and cocktails, which was fantastic.

My stay at Moracea by Khao Lak Resort was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and hospitality that instantly made me feel at home. The staff went above and beyond throughout my entire stay—always friendly, attentive, and ready to help with anything I needed. Their kindness truly made the experience unforgettable. The location is absolutely stunning. Nestled right by the beach, the views are breathtaking, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it the perfect place to relax and unwind. Whether it was watching the sunset or simply enjoying the sound of the ocean, every moment felt special. The facilities are outstanding and beautifully maintained. From the pools to the rooms and all the shared spaces, everything is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed to create a luxurious yet welcoming environment. And the food—simply incredible. Every meal was fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. There was a great variety of options, and everything I tried exceeded expectations. I honestly couldn’t fault a single thing about my stay. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a perfect getaway. I’m already looking forward to coming back!

The Ultimate Beachfront Escape. ”The location is unbeatable, situated right on the beautiful Memories Beach. It’s an absolute dream for outdoor enthusiasts—I spent my days surfing, running along the shore, and chilling by the pool. I also loved that I didn’t have to leave the property for good food; having Thai, Italian, and a cute coffee shop on-site was so convenient. Above all, the staff were so welcoming and provided world-class hospitality. Highly recommend!”

I stayed at Ananea beyond for two nights during my birthday celebration with my husband. Overall, we had a pleasant and relaxing experience.       The service was excellent, and we were welcomed with genuine smiles from every staff member we encountered. During check-in a short-haired lady at the lobby provided us with a warm welcome, complete information, and professional service. After that, Paul assisted us with our luggage and gave us a detailed introduction to the resort facilities as well as our villa.         One of the highlights of our stay was the Pool Bar. The swimming pool was spacious and very clean. We had the opportunity to try several drinks prepared by Marwin, and they were absolutely delicious. We ended up having 4–6 drinks .He always served us with a friendly smile and showed great passion and attention when preparing our beverages.        Unfortunately, we did not get a chance to experience the Kanda spa. When we checked in  the spa between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, it was closed due to a photo shoot and promotional activities, if I remember correctly. As a result both of us missed the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing spa treatment during our stay.       The breakfast selection was somewhat limited, although the food tasted good and the restaurant staff provided excellent service.        The resort itself is peaceful and quiet, making it a great place to unwind and escape from work-related stress. Our villa was very spacious and well-equipped with amenities. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. Housekeeping standards were not as detailed as expected. The bed linens had several visible stains from previous use before our arrival. Complimentary bottled water was not replenished during our stay .we only received four bottles for the entire two-night stay. Used drinking glasses were also not replaced. In the evenings, some of the pathways leading back to the villas felt quite dark. Additionally, several villas were undergoing renovation during our visit, and there were quite a lot of mosquitoes around the property.        Despite these minor issues, we had a wonderful stay thanks to the outstanding hospitality of the staff. We appreciate their kindness and dedication

The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile. The pool was cleaned daily. Our room on the third floor was great, offering good privacy. For the last three nights, we upgraded to a room with direct pool access for the kids to enjoy the water more easily. The first room we were given had a very strong mildew smell; after just ten minutes, I had a terrible headache. We immediately informed the front desk, and they promptly moved us to another room. This new room had no strange odors and wasn't as damp as I'd feared. However, the privacy was quite poor, as anyone walking by could see directly into the room if the door was open. Given that even guests not staying on the ground floor can use the JW pool, I don't think staying on the ground floor is really necessary. The food was excellent. On our first night, we happened to catch the Japanese buffet, and the next day was the Italian buffet – both were fantastic, and our five-year-old ate for free. The Thai restaurant's crab fried rice and Tom Yum Goong were also delicious, but the buffet version of the Tom Yum Goong was a bit disappointing, tasting completely different from the à la carte one. After mentioning this to the staff, the chef specially prepared another bowl of Tom Yum Goong for us, which would have cost 420฿ if ordered separately. This small bowl of soup had six large prawns in it – it was perfect! 😍 Overall, it was a very good stay. My daughter is already looking forward to our trip to Khao Lak next year!

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.

A luxurious hotel, the best one we've stayed at in Thailand. You feel like a millionaire here! The restaurant by the water is a bit pricey, but the one by the sea is fantastic. We visited during the off-season, so there was a nice breeze. The hotel grounds are home to a couple of monitor lizards, birds, and fish. Evenings are beautiful with live music playing. There are a lot of Europeans around. The grounds are extensive, and the kids' pool is great. However, the waterslides close early, and you can only swim in the pool until 7 PM. We often only got back to the hotel around that time and wished we could swim in the pool when it was already dark on the beach. But, overall, it's a superb hotel, and I'd gladly spend another week here. Nearby, there's a waterfall and a turtle sanctuary, and you can go bamboo rafting. The kids loved it, and so did we!

Great price, and the accommodation is right on the main road. I called ahead to check in early, and the staff were excellent, very smiley. The housekeeper had even turned on the air conditioning for me. The room was spacious, as was the bathtub. The bathroom water pressure was good and strong, and the shower was fantastic. The only slight issue was a faint smell in the bathroom because the water didn't drain properly; the floor wasn't sloped towards the drain. The bed was huge, and they provided plenty of pillows. However, the pillows were quite firm and dense, so if you prefer softer pillows like I do, you might need to find a comfortable position to sleep in. Breakfast was à la carte, with traditional pork congee that you could order more of, plus one glass of a brewed drink. There was also a small buffet with some Thai dishes. The food was delicious.

The hotel's location is interesting. We had a sea view room (though the lawn in front of the sea, which belongs to the hotel, was a bit unkempt). The room itself was beautiful, comfortable, and spacious, and the balcony was great too. The pool is open until 10 PM, and there's a water cooler in the common hallway, so no issues with water. Breakfasts were tasty, and the staff were polite and pleasant. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Regarding the negatives: upon check-in, we found a huge cockroach on the curtain. How it could have been missed when preparing the room is a mystery. We didn't make a fuss; we just caught the cockroach ourselves and released it onto the lawn (there were two in total), oh well, these things happen. The biggest drawback, which overshadowed all the positives, was the non-functional air conditioning system. It's a central system, and it seems like maintenance has been completely neglected. When we contacted reception, an engineer came up and showed us how to adjust it (only two modes: 22°C and 21°C; other temperature settings didn't work). The room was 29°C. The AC blew slightly but didn't cool. Because of this, we canceled our extended booking and moved to a proper hotel with a working air conditioner. And where the AC unit draws air, there was a thick layer of dust... The hotel itself is great, but the air conditioning, or rather its lack of proper function, ruined everything.

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!
