Top Khao Lak Hotel Reviews

The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani

The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani

10/10 Excellent
"We had one of the best family holidays so far at this hotel (now with a toddler). The pools, the water park and the kids club kept the kids entertained every day. Many activities for kids as well as adults, in the hotel and in the surrounding area. Great selection of food as well. Hotel is well equipped with all the amenities you'd need. The staff were amazingly helpful and polite. My son got surprised for his birthday with a room set up and a cake, which we hadn't even mentioned specifically to them, we thought was a beautiful gesture by The Sands. Sad to end our wonderful holiday here, but leaving already with hopes to be back."
