Thailand is known as Land of Smiles, and The Waters at Khao Lak is a perfect example of why. From the moment we arrived, every single staff member - from the friendly reception and happy bell boys to the attentive cleaning staff, maintenance crew, kitchen team, waiters and the pool bar crew greeted us with smiles and made us feel welcome. Nothing was ever too much trouble, even inflating our pool bed was done with a smile. We stayed in pool access room, the best decision - just step straight from your room into a large pool and being able to swim up to the pool bar during happy hour was a highlight! The location is excellent, walking distance to market and plenty of restaurants nearby. Highly recommend The Waters for anyone looking for a relaxing, friendly and fun stay in Khao Lak. We’ll definitely be back!!the
