Chongfah Resort Khao Lak

Spent 6 nights here in one of the sea front bungalows and it was wonderful. Room was spacious and well appointed. What really sets this stay apart from our others are the staff. I know pretty much Thais are universally friendly and happy people but at Chongfah they were the nicest people you could wish to meet. Food and drinks were also excellent. Quiet location but really close to everything. Highly recommended.

What a gem! This was by far the best holiday we have had in Khao Lak (we have been in Khao Lak many times before). Everything at this hotel is just beautiful, from the location right above the beach to the rooms and all the wonderful staff - reception, restaurant as well as housekeeping. As soon as you enter the premises you right away get a sense of peace and tranquility. We stayed in a bechfront bungalow, 1105, which was just fantastic, big and spacious, with our own sun beds just outside, and housekeeping twice a day. Breakfast had a good variety of things to choose from, both genuine Thai dishes as well as an omelett/egg station, sushi, fresh fruit and juices and much more. The restaurant also offers great food for lunch and dinner as well, but as we only had breakfast included we did eat out most of the time. But the lunches and dinners we did try were delicious. The location of the hotel in Bang Niang is just perfect, as you are able to reach everything on foot, just a short walk to nearby restaurants and bars, as well as the market (4 days/week). Thank you Chongfah - we will definitely return again in the future!

This is definitely a 5* hotel Amazing place. Quiet but not far from the hustle and bustle of the town and close enough to walk to any bars/restaurants etc The staff are all so friendly. Housekeeping excellent and turndown service every evening with a little treat left Breakfast out on the terrace with great views of the sea and passing boats Evening sunsets were fabulous while having a cocktail Pool is great….never had a problem getting a bed. Lively beach towels provided too All in all an amazing experience staying at this hotel and will definitely be back!

We hadn’t originally planned to stay at Chongfah Beach Resort, but when our original booking elsewhere was cancelled, this little gem popped up in a search – and what a stroke of luck that turned out to be! We booked a bungalow for two weeks and can confidently say this is one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at. The standout feature? The staff. Without a doubt, the most wonderful, attentive team we’ve encountered at any hotel, anywhere in the world. Joy and Axe were incredible – they thought of what we needed before we even realised it ourselves. Because it’s a small boutique hotel, you really get to know the staff, and they get to know you, making it feel personal and welcoming. Despite being full, the hotel never felt busy. The most we ever saw in the stunning infinity pool was five people at a time – no sunbed battles here! The pool overlooks the sea, making for the most relaxing and beautiful setting. Happy hour (which is actually an hour and a half!) was brilliant – superbly made cocktails on a two-for-one offer, thanks to Pea, who really knows how to mix a great drink. Breakfast was another highlight. No standing in line for a push-button coffee machine here – instead, you get freshly ground coffee made to order. Nouy and Bas were wonderfully attentive, anticipating what we needed before we asked. Ning, one of the egg station chefs, made a fantastic omelette! As we were diving for six days and had limited time for breakfast, they kindly let us in 10 minutes early so we weren’t rushing before our pick-up – a small gesture that made a huge difference. Our bungalow was a wonderful surprise – absolutely huge! It had an outdoor shower, a jacuzzi bath, a spacious bathroom and dressing area, a large bedroom, and a big balcony. The housekeeping team were fantastic, turning down the bed each evening and lighting an oil burner so the room smelled like a spa when we returned after a long day. They also placed an incense stick on the balcony to keep the bugs away. The Nespresso machine in the room, with unlimited pods, was another great touch. Fresh towels were changed when we wanted them, in line with the hotel’s eco-conscious approach. While we didn’t have dinner at the hotel, we did have lunch, which was good. But the breakfasts alone were enough to impress! This was our third stay in Khao Lak, and after experiencing Chongfah Resort, we won’t be staying anywhere else in the future. If you’re looking for loud music and poolside aqua aerobics, this isn’t the place for you. But if you want a peaceful, relaxing oasis with incredible service, beautiful surroundings, and an overall feeling of calm and luxury, Chongfah Resort is absolutely the place to stay. If there is one area to improve, I’d say they need to up their social media presence! I couldn’t find out much on Instagram for example. A huge thank you to all the staff for making our holiday so special – we can’t wait to return!

It was a true home away from home experience! We went for a long trip to relax and enjoy by the sea and am happy we returned with all our dreams fulfilled.Thank you Chongfah Beach Resort! This resort gave a very personalized attention to all its guests.One day I requested the kitchen staff to warm the dinner which I had bought from outside they not only warmed the food but served them in the restaurant crockery and brought them to my room!! In they evening they keep a note and some snacks just outside the room!! The jacuzzi is placed outside in a private courtyard surrounded by pebbles and flowering plants!!bathing in the outdoor private jacuzzi was an out of the world experience!!The roaring sea is just a few steps away from the door of the room,which filled our stay with adventure!!We checked out early in the morning and requested for a take away breakfast which they happily obliged by hygienically packing us a very good breakfast.The rooms and outside deck chairs are cleaned thoroughly everyday.We enjoyed the outdoor bar! Also to add this resort organizes an extravagant New Year Day party with buffet and entertainment which is worth enjoying !! We missed it this time but have plans to attend it in future. We as a family love traveling and have stayed at many placed but I would like to put this experience on top as it gave my whole family a feeling of being at home. There are many resorts available for booking but I strongly recommend experiencing this resort after my stay.
