Nang Thong Beach Area Resorts
Nang Thong Beach is probably the most popular destination in the Khao Lak area. Stroll its long beach and you will know why. It is an easy walk to beachside restaurants, great snorkeling is on offer in the rocky area and the sea invites you to just float around for a few hours. Most resorts are within a ten to twelve minute walk into the village area for even more restaurants, a few bars and shopping.
This beach is home to more resorts and options than the other beaches - but Bang Niang Beach is quickly catching up. The southern end of Nang Thong Beach is known as Sunset Beach.
Baan Khaolak Resort
Probably the most popular resort along Nang Thong Beach. Excellent location in the center of things - an easy walk into town - spot middle of a long stretch of beach - and a good restaurant right on the beach.
The beachfront bungalows are very nice.
Khao Lak Bayfront Resort
On the Sunset Beach portion of Nang Thong Beach, this resort provides you with 4 beachfront bungalows, 8 sea view bungalows, 48 deluxe rooms and 14 standard hillside rooms.
Part of the resort is built down the side of the hill on the south end of Baan La On.
Khao Lak Resort
Also set on Sunset Beach - built down a hillside to the sea front. Great new Jacuzzi and pool villas right on the beach.
Often overlooked - this resort is an “old standard” that has been very much brought up to date.
The Resort itself occupies a land area of some 12 acres, nestled in one of the most private and peaceful spots between the hills of Khaolak and the beach.
Baan Krating Resort
On the far south end of Sunset Beach, perched on a hillside, Baan Krating Resort has spectacular views down the length of Nang Thong, Bang Niang, and Khuk Khak Beaches - and even down to Cape Pakarang.
Lots of stairs here though and the beach immediately in front of the resort can be rocky.
But - still a very special place with modest pricing.
Khaolak Bhandari Resort
Thai style design resort that sits back from the main part of Nang Thong Beach by about 100 meters.
Centrally located, an easy walk into the village and lots restaurants.
Numerous good beachfront restaurants are within an easy evening stroll.
Khaolak Wanaburee Resort
A boutique resort with 34 residences including 2 Casuarinas Suites, 6 Rendezvous beach front Villas (spectacular!), 14 Manor Villas offering garden and lagoon view and 12 Prestige Lagoon Estates.
Rooms are decorated with fabrics in pastel colors as well as supreme furnishing, private balconies and terraces which gives you an ultimate atmosphere of rejuvenation and relaxation.
Sunset Beach, south end of Baan La On.
Khaolak Paradise Resort
A beautiful garden resort with thatched bungalows and stone-built twin-suite buildings. The photos on their website don’t do the place justice.
Right on Sunset Beach, the resort has a secluded garden feel to it.
Built down a hillside before you get to the main area - lots of stairs. Once on the main grounds easy access to the beach.
Khaolak Laguna Resort
A very large resort, but with all the amenities that implies. An easy walk into Baan La On, and also on an excellent stretch of Nang Thong Beach.
Completely new and just opened at the end of 2007.
Great new villas and bungalows sitting close to the beach front.
Suwan Palm Resort
Small resort on the center of Nang Thong Beach. Good location with easy access to the beach front and a short walk into Baan La On.
Suwan Palm Resort offers 44 rooms in four categories; Junior Suite, Deluxe, Superior and Standard ranging from 33 - 77 sqm including Ocean View balconies at all rooms.
Khaolak Seaview Resort
A large resort set on the Nang Thong beach front, but much of the resort is set across a small street further away from the beach.
The grounds are exceptional and the design of the resort well thought out. Excellent villas in the sea-side part of the resort.
Khao Lak Sunset Resort
Excellent location on the far south end of Sunset Beach. A longer walk into town, perhaps 20 minutes. Or, easier access down the beach and then up to town.
Nice beach area - often has bargain room rates.
All rooms have sea views.
