Family-friendly Hotels in Takua Pa

I booked a regular room for 1,400 RMB a night on Ctrip. FOOD: The food was really unpalatable. I ordered three dishes in the picture and took a bite of each one. The taste was wrong and it was very unpalatable! The free bread basket was thought to be moldy. Papaya salad, whoever eats it will be disappointed. Checked in and waited 25 minutes. There is no service at all. There were not many guests on the day I checked in. I saw on Ctrip that there were rooms with sea views. I asked the front desk if I could upgrade the room? Answer: No. There was a very damp musty smell upon entering the room. When I checked in, I found that the light in the room was broken. People from the engineering department repaired it for 20 minutes while I was present. Why book this hotel? Because it is very close to the pier to Similan, it takes 40 minutes to drive. If I go to Similan Island next time, I will definitely not stay in this hotel.

Stay in this beautiful resort only if you’re ready to be spoilt by the amazing hospitality of their staff. It’s located in the middle of nowhere, but that doesn’t matter as the resort itself has everything you’ll need. We took the all in package. Rooms are luxurious, very clean, very well kept. The resort itself is very well kept, pool, beach, bar, playroom. Very family friendly. Stayed here twice, both during peak (March) and low peak(June), both occasions felt very different, i personally preferred the peak, however one thing that did not change was the hospitality of their amazing staff! A special shout out to Kwan for professionally handling the tantrum of a hungry 35yr old (me). Great selection of food in their restaurants too. And when you need a laugh, Sit@Aon will crack you up. Will always come back.

If you want a first-class hotel holiday, this is the right place! The rooms are large and spacious, coffee, tea and water are refilled in the room every day. There is even a hairdryer, ironing board and iron, as well as the necessary bathroom utensils such as toothbrush, razor, cotton buds, etc. The complex is beautiful and everything is super clean. The pool is wonderful and as an alternative the sea and the beach are right next door. There is a restaurant, gym and massages by the pool/beach. The children are well looked after in the kids club with a changing offer and there are also offers for the older ones. Children from 4 years of age are allowed to stay there alone, otherwise at least one supervisor must stay with them. The breakfast leaves nothing to be desired. The staff is very friendly and there is a lot of joking, especially with the children. The only disadvantage for us was the location, only a small supermarket and an ATM in the next hotel are within walking distance. There are alternatives to the delicious hotel food within walking distance across the beach, but if you like a bit of variety and want to stroll around in the evening, you should look for a more central hotel. Otherwise, there are shuttle buses to the nearest market and to the town of Khao Lak for a fee, which takes around 30 minutes. Unfortunately, you cannot book a Grab in this region. There is also an excursion counter and a shuttle bus to the airport, but you can also book them directly on the beach for a little less money.

Despite being a long way out of Khao Lak, (one of the last hotels, 15 mins out) it’s worth going the extra distance. Staff so friendly and helpful; everyone in the hotel. Our poolside room was wonderful-space to relax and slip into the water and also spa jets whenever we liked. The big pool with bar near the beach was also a pleasure to be at. The food for breakfast and dinner was delicious and they catered for my food allergies very well. They gave options for level of spiciness for the Thai food. I had an injury and the late checkout til 6pm they provided for me was a final bonus. Highly recommend

A beautiful hotel, staff are friendly and helpfully. Very good services and nice breakfast which is many items and variety. Meanwhile, not only many corner for taking photos but also the hotel still has many activities to serve the guest. Recommended!! #designhotel

What makes a relaxing getaway coupled with a successful business is the professional staff at the resort. JW Marriott at Khao Lak has the professional, multilingual staff on board to help make your getaway experience as relaxing and comfortable as possible. From Khun Apple at the front desk during check in or Khun Oum at the check out desk, they provided such excellent, quality service making my family feel appreciated. All the service staff helped play with my 2 year old son, which made me feel like children are also appreciated at this resort. We loved P’Apple who showed us the farm and took the time to explain the company’s plan creating an ecotourism experience for guests. The facilities were immaculate! The rooms are dry and well-built despite the high humidity. The pool is well kept and ver my fun to swim around the property. I know this isn’t a company specific issue, but the amount of trash that washed up on the beach and left there was an eye sore. I wanted to play in the sand and water but the amount of foam, fishing wire, and plastic was so concerning. I get that this is a greater ecosystem issue as opposed to JW’s issue. Lastly, enjoy the sunset on this property. It’s so tranquil.

We stayed for 3 weeks, in a beach villa, over Chris**as and New Year leaving the 2nd week in January. The villas are older than the rest of the resort, and were built after the 2004 tsunami, however they are well maintained and comfortable. The hotel is an easy walk to the nearest restaurants if people want a change from the hotel one which was competitively priced. All the staff were cheerful and very helpful and seemed to enjoy working there which is a good sign. Many things organised, complementary afternoon tea/coffee and biscuits/cake, cheap shuttle at 6pm to the near village and Khaolak Central. On Boxing day a candle lit remembrance service was held on the beach and the NYE party was very good with lots of different food, music and Thai dancing,very memorable. All the staff were exceptional, putting in hours of work putting up then taking down the stage, lighting and seating for the show as well as totally reorganising the restaurant area. We did not go inside any rooms in the modern hotel area as we like villas however looking in they look comfortable and more modern. No hesitation in recommending this hotel and we hope to stay there again.

Wonderfully peaceful and laid back hotel. The staff are wonderful each and everyone we met. They truly cannot do enough to make your holiday special. We had a Grande Deluxe room on the top floor overlooking the swim up pool. It was perfect! The bed was huge as was the bath. Bottled water was replenished every day. The room was also cleaned spotlessly daily. Breakfast was a choice of fruits/yoghurts, eggs/bacon/tomatoes or Thai stir fry. Something for everyone! Bars are dotted around the entire resort. Obviously they charge hotel prices but they all have their own happy hour (actually it’s 2hrs!!). Time it right and a bottle of beer is 70baht and cocktails 130baht. It’s a 10 minute walk into Khao Lak and the start of a 1.5km ***** of shops and restaurants. Alternatively there will always be taxis waiting outside the hotel entrance. You can get these for 100Baht (£2.20). It’s 200Baht if you fancy a trip to the market which is a couple of km further. We left early at 5am and were provided with a breakfast box to take with us which was a nice touch. Overall we loved this hotel and will definitely return. Kha Lak is the perfect place to visit and Moracea is the perfect hotel to base yourselves. Thank you for making our holiday special.

Very beautiful and clean hotel. The swimming pool amazing, just beside the beach. The breakfast also very nice. Very silent and comfortable hotel

This place is now called Thailife Wellness Resort and Meditation Center. Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens stayed in the Sukothani Suite in March 2023. We really enjoyed it. We wanted to be away from the cookie cutter beachside resorts at a place with more of a traditional Thai feel, and this did not disappoint. The room was really beautiful with the wood architecture and furniture. Note it is still a nature resort so there were small things you have to be OK with- the AC was not strong enough to cool the whole room and was not in the bathroom or kitchen, there were geckos in the room one that pooped on the bed/us at night :) But the location made it worth it- listening to the frogs and birds over the lake in the morning and evening on the patio. The best part for us was having the bikes- each guest gets a bike so you can keep it the whole time you are there- for around the grounds and to the beach and beach bar. The breakfast food was not great but they had interesting local juices and a wide selection. The beach bar food was on par with other beach bars, i.e. OK. They did have lots of smoothie and health juices and a large vegetarian selection. The beach was gorgeous- very isolate and all to yourself. Massage salas on the beach. Note you have to take a 15-25 minute cab to other restaurants so if you want to be close to any kind of action or scene this place is not for you. But if you want a relaxing time at a gorgeous beach all to yourself then this is the place. When we were there the water was perfectly clean, no garbage or jellyfish. The beach goes on for miles so you can walk and walk. The staff was very helpful suggesting trips to nearby beaches, towns and restaurants and arranging transportation.
