Amazing Stay in Khao Lak

An amazing stay in the Adults Only Villa. The service was second to none, and the hotel itself was beautiful. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the bed is huge and very comfortable. We will certainly stay here again and will be back. The staff are all amazing. There are too many to mention, but a special thanks to Tom, Jerry and Nescafe. Always polite, friendly and smiling.

The Little Shore Khao Lak by Katathani is equivalent to a Four Seasons but at a fraction of the cost. The Resort is new clean and impeccably appointed. The staff were very respectful and friendly. The Resort is very convenient to the small town of Khao Lak. The only issue we had was that the beach is not the greatest. It's OK but quite a bit of trash washes up on shore from Myanmar and some of the neigboring Islands. I highly recommend this resort if you want to visit the Similan or Surin Islands. The Diving around Richelieu Rock and the Similan Islands is world class the only issue I had was the visibility was only about 15 to 20 meters. I will definitely stay at this resort on my next trip to Thailand!

The location is great because its a short walk to Khao Lak shops and for massages, right on the beach, 10 mins ride to Bang Niam markets and provides wonderful facilities for guests. Food and drinks were at the expected hotel pricing. The rooms with pools are wonderful and private. The main pool and area have a lovely view of the sea.

Beachfront location. About a 10min walk to the shopping area but hotel provides frew buggy transport. Bit expensive to eat and drink in the hotel compared to local restaurants/bars. Hotel room well stocked with toiletries, hairdryer, coffee machine etc and minibar (but only the water free). Staff are fantastic especially Wallie and Tea. Quieter area of Khao Lak compared to the Bang Niang area but only a short taxi/tuk tuk ride away.

This property’s prime location right on the beach, with private beach access, is undoubtedly its biggest draw. The amenities, including a gym and a kids’ room, are excellent and add to the overall appeal. However, the rooms are quite small for the price you pay, which is disappointing. We booked the Sea View Pool Suite, expecting a premium experience. Initially, we were given a suite on the second floor, located in the middle of the property, directly opposite the main pool and gym. The constant foot traffic meant our private pool didn’t feel private at all. After raising the issue, we were moved to a better room the following day, with improved views and much more privacy, which made a big difference. However, even this suite felt cramped for the price. Room service was another disappointment—waiting 30-45 minutes for a couple of plates is far too long for a property of this standard. Overall, if beach proximity and private beach access are your top priorities, this property delivers. But considering the small rooms, delayed service, and price point, there are likely better alternatives to explore.

What a beautiful resort!!! From the minute we arrived at the property, we were amazed by the entrance, facilities, and pool. The setting is so relaxing and view of the sunset is just wonderful. Most notably, the staff is excellent and made us feel so welcome. The resort has everything you need with several nice restaurants with lots of food options. I especially enjoyed the breakfast with fresh fruit, breakfast potatoes, pancakes, and Thai options such as Pad See Ew. They also had a nice selections of premium cold cuts and cheese as well as chia and rice pudding which were delicious. For drinks, we enjoyed fresh squeezed cold press juice and lattes. The pools are spectacular and so close to the beach and ocean and best of all a swim-up pool bar! Most resorts around Khao Lak tend to be a little hot but the Little Shore has a great ocean breeze due to being a beach front property so we could just lounge all day and listen to the waves crash against the beach. The property also has a really nice 24 hour gym with all the equipment you need and separate rooms for yoga and boxing. Lastly, the rooms were very luxurious and spacious. It's equipped with bluetooth and ordering room service from the app was very easy and convenient. My daughter and I had a great time playing the in our private pool and we had an amazing view of the ocean. Overall, it was a wonderful visit and a great option for an upscale experience in Khao Lak. We will definitely be back!

The Little Shore Hotel is truly magnificent, embodying everything a 5-star resort should offer. If I had to sum it up in one word, it would be "hassle-free." From the moment you enter, the bell boys—Nescafé, Tom, Jerry, and Title, greet you warmly, take your bags, transport you to reception, and escort you to your room, all with a smile. There are absolutely no problems for them. Everyone here is so accommodating that your vacation feels like a utopian world where everything works together seamlessly. The reception staff—Selena, Patty, Jit, and the entire team—are exceptional and accommodating. Now, the rooms—Oh My God! We stayed in the sea view villas and were in awe every time we opened our doors. The view of the pool, cabana, and sea was an absolute pleasure, and we wished we could have extended our stay. Breakfast is heavenly. We didn't have lunch, but dinner at the Thai restaurant Parmam Para takes you through history and myth with flavors that represent historical times. If I can give you any advice, it is: "Just go ahead and book." You will be happy you did.
