What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Upper Pool Access Delight

I recently had the pleasure of staying in an upper pool access room at The Waters Khao Lak. The room was incredibly spacious, equipped with a massive and comfortable bed, an excellent walk-in shower, and a good balcony with sun loungers. The convenience of stepping right into the pool from my room made every day feel like a vacation. The daily replenishment of tea, coffee, and bottled water added a nice touch to our stay.

The staff ensured that everything was clean and well-organized, making dining a pleasant experience.

Relaxing Pool Experience

The pool area at The Waters was a highlight of my stay! With plenty of space to unwind and relax, it offered a serene atmosphere perfect for lounging. The swim-up bar was a fantastic feature; I enjoyed having refreshing cocktails without having to leave the water. It was truly a relaxing retreat and a perfect way to spend afternoons soaking up the sun.

Great Entertainment Options

During my stay, I was impressed with the variety of entertainment options available at The Waters. There was a games room that provided fun alternatives when I wanted to take a break from the sun, which I really appreciated. Additionally, the atmosphere during special events, like New Year's Eve celebrations, was vibrant and enjoyable, truly making the hotel feel lively.

The Waters resort has a unique atmosphere as it feels more like a Western escape rather than a traditional Thai getaway. While the facilities, particularly the pools and gym, are well-maintained, my experiences with the rooms were less than favorable due to their outdated conditions and occasional flooding. The dining, although satisfactory, offers a Western-focused breakfast buffet that lacks true Thai flair. Overall, it's not a bad stay, but you'd have to weigh the cost against the experience.

My trip to Khao Lak was unforgettable! The Waters resort offered a unique experience with its spacious pool access rooms and a breakfast buffet that left nothing to be desired. The charm of the local restaurants nearby added to the peaceful ambiance, although the Bay Wing's conditions were less appealing. Overall, I loved the friendly atmosphere and the excellent dining options, making it well worth the visit despite a few shortcomings.

I had a lovely stay at The Waters, where the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The breakfast options were fantastic and kept us satisfied each morning. While the hotel is well-located near the beach, I found the rooms slightly dated and could use some refreshing. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but there are certainly nicer hotels available at similar prices.
