Unusable. Shoddy. Unresponsive. Stunningly beautiful setting. Traumatic boat trip out to resort. Engine fire. Host pushed passed guests who were left to fight the fire with the boat driver. Used out hats to scoop water from the lake to put out foot high flames. Management at resort once we eventually arrived were non plussed. No acknowledgement of our ordeal other then and apology. Not even a complimentary beer! Cut short at start and at end due to the boat fire. Such a shame because it's a beautiful location. Needs money spending on repairs to walkways and steps into the water as dangerous too. Book with Cate as it's pretty pricey. A day trip or at the most 1 night stay is the maximum I'd recommend booking. Such a shame. ##### James Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sue Apr 10, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Sue Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Hannah Mar 25, 2024 ##### Hannah Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Thamonwan Dec 11, 2023 ##### Thamonwan Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Apr 16, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Deeply overpriced Lake Trap Well located and the food is adequate, but an overpriced trap with no peace or quiet. What really made me angry was the “morning safari”: 20 minutes of being ferried to 3 selfie locations for 40+ minutes of selfies. I was insulted, angry, and genuinely upset. No attempt to find wildlife. No attempt to do or see anything interesting. No reverence for the location. Cookie cutter trash. I’ve been on safaris from Chitwan to the Serengetti and gladly would pay to avoid a Panvaree tour. After that, we refused to go on other “excursions”. We didn’t have a private villa so had to stay in the room above the restaurant, which pipes Ed Sheeran in through the sewer, and the room next door hosted chimpanzees who don’t know how to not slam a door. Cloth door stoppers cost like $1. Thus, sleep was difficult. We paid 5,500 baht a night - for nightly air con and a separate bathroom; it’s not worth 2,000. I stupidly stayed there for two nights; this amazed the staff who are used to ferrying in the cattle and then ferrying them off 20 hours later. Children scream the livelong day and staff listen to their soap operas on their phones while you’re trying to hear the gibbons. The swimming area is difficult for anyone not in a cabin, it is impossible to step on the landing in bare feet, and the hotel uses plastic cups and straws. Oh and racist golliwog dolls on the lobby doors. Khao Sok is a beautiful place and deserves better. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E4970F03E6C28E2D68BD632BCA66B63A18388E3F1618542951587.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Feb 29, 2020 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 22, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefano Feb 6, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Eine Oase der Ruhe Wunderschöne Lage umgeben von Bergen, toll zum Schwimmen und zum Relaxen. 2 Boots-Touren sind kostenlos. Ich empfehle mindestens 2 Nächte zu bleiben. Sie können auch das Restaurant und die Bar des angrenzenden Panvaree The Greenery benutzen. Das a la carte Essen ist von besserer Qualität, wie die voraus zu Zahlen Menüs. DSDS Ausland-Recall 2019 wurde hier gedreht. Das Personal ist sehr geduldig und freundlich. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/60D64864B8A69CDA085D50E42EB0C364E7D3A3301580989462991.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5A7C0174EF3B75F761512DF62C604B12FC3282361580989464045.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9FC4231F5695EEA2C27D9B2E7FC4FD50EE0AE6801580989471954.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/360FBD1B43D741BDC9EEEAD084F05044E9DF07831580989475260.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stefano Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony Jan 29, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful raftbungalows Very nice floating bungalows, booked the hi-floor room , where at hotels.com it says comes with a terrace, not so.. so if you dont want to feel like you in a box dont book.

Kayak included all day which made it so easy to explore this amazing lake. The food was really good!! We read some mixed reviews about the food and I will say if you’re picky this won’t work for you because there is no choice of meals but we enjoyed every meal. One particular dinner was our favorite plate of all of Thailand. This is a stranded floating hotel so the normal hotel/resort Amenities are not available. And it’s basically in the jungle so you’ll have to manage some non harmful ants after a rain and lizards etc. We saw wild elephant and monkeys on the boat rides and loved the day excursion to a cave. Would absolutely stay again ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 2, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great service and place The staff were very helpful. It was a serene place, great to relax and rejuvenate ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Allow 1 hour travel from airport. All foreigners pay 300 baht fee to enter lake.(not noted when booking). If you expect 5 star service do not stay here, It is a remote holiday destination with little to do but look at the majestic view and relax. The staff speak minimal english but make every effort to provide a great stay. The huts are good for multiple guests but we chose rooms above the restaurant. Steep stair entry but sensation view. I read some bad reviews about this resort, but i found it to be fantastic. I like thai food and the chef cooks it as it should be. If you are fussy eater then you must call ahead and they will provide alternative meals for you. If you want Hilton hotel dont stay here. If you want truly exceptional thai hospitality this is a hidden gem. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ban's Diving Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Koh-Tao-Hotels-Bans-Diving-Resort.h4520812.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Senses Yao Noi](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Six-Senses-Yao-Noi.h1593285.Hotel-Information) > > [Phi Phi The Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ko-Phi-Phi-Hotels-Phi-Phi-The-Beach-Resort.h8414130.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Coconut Island Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Village-Coconut-Island.h2497603.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Phuket Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-InterContinental-Phuket-Resort.h34182531.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Phuket-Beach-Resort.h4850.Hotel-Information) > > [Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort & Spa - Compulsory Join Santhiya Speedboat from / to Ao Po Grand Marina at Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Santhiya-Koh-Yao-Yai-Resort-Spa.h5239883.Hotel-Information) > > [The Charm Resort Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Charm-Resort-Phuket.h7594306.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Grand Phuket Kalim Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Wyndham-Grand-Phuket-Kalim-Bay.h17060685.Hotel-Information) > > [Kalima Resort & Spa, Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Kalima-Resort-Spa.h5200895.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandarava Resort and Spa Karon Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Mandarava-Resort-And-Spa-Karon-Beach.h5375311.Hotel-Information) > > [Rocky's Boutique Resort - Veranda Collection Samui](https://www.expedia.ca/Koh-Samui-Hotels-Rockys-Boutique-Resort.h1177625.Hotel-Information) > > [SAii Phi Phi Island Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Ko-Phi-Phi-Hotels-SAii-Phi-Phi-Island-Village.h2336620.Hotel-Information) > > [Crest Resort & Pool Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Crest-Resort-Pool-Villas.h14645851.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquarius Gay Guesthouse & Sauna](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Aquarius-Gay-Guesthouse-Sauna.h2516380.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Phuket Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Phuket-Resort-Spa.h789361.Hotel-Information) > > [Thavorn Beach Village Resort & Spa Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Thavorn-Beach-Village-Resort-Spa-Phuket.h975456.Hotel-Information) > > [Koh Kood Paradise Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Ko-Kood-Hotels-Koh-Kood-Paradise-Beach.h16493663.Hotel-Information) > > [IndoChine Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-IndoChine-Resort-Villas.h4883578.Hotel-Information) > > [Phuket Graceland Resort And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Phuket-Graceland-Resort-And-Spa.h1594065.Hotel-Information) > > [The Marina Phuket Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Marina-Phuket-Hotel.h19455258.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Anantara-Mai-Khao-Phuket-Villas.h2281334.Hotel-Information) > > [The Vijitt Resort Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Vijitt-Resort-Phuket.h3234295.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Meridien Chiang Rai Resort, Thailand](https://www.expedia.ca/Chiang-Rai-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Chiang-Rai-Resort.h2184230.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pavilions Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-The-Pavilions-Phuket.h1277096.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Patong Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Phuket-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Phuket-Patong-Beach-Resort.h48813411.Hotel-Information) > > [Phi Phi CoCo Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ko-Phi-Phi-Hotels-Phi-Phi-CoCo-Beach-Resort.h31909567.Hotel-Information) > > [Amari Phuket](https://www.expedia.ca/Patong-Hotels-Amari-Phuket.h68751.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunwing Kamala Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamala-Hotels-Sunwing-Kamala-Beach.h2842424.Hotel-Information)
