Kokotel Khao Lak Lighthouse

Soooo much to love about this place. I loved having breakfast by the sea every morning—with a nice selection of foods! We also loved the surf shop (Low Tide) located behind the hotel, which allowed us to surf almost everyday. **note that it’s only recommended to surf during low tide. The bed was SO comfortable—probably the best we’ve experienced so far in Thailand. The staff were so kind and always with a smile. We enjoyed our stay so much that we extended a week! Hopefully we can come back soon. P.S. book the sea view room, very much worth it, even if you can’t “see” that much of the sea.

Big and spacious room with comfortable bed and big bathroom. Their branding details are cute and well thought of. There are drinking water stations in every floor and glass bottles are provided so you can get as much water as you want for free, great solution to avoid the use of so many plastic bottles. The beach is a short walk away, however it was raining during our stay and we couldn't enjoy much of it or the swimming pool (monsoon season- early June). There's a mini-mart right outside the hotel with the essentials, comes handy since there aren't many stores/restaurants nearby. Very quiet and peaceful place with few people

It was our 2nd time at Kokotel, first time we were with the kids in 2022. And I can honestly say things have improved and our stay was wonderful. I do not understand why some reviews argue about the quality of breakfast, cannot see what could be improved there as they have what you find in 90% of hotels. The rooms are clean, the ladies come and clean them everyday. The staff is amazing - thank you Nan for being such a nice person and making our kids feel great! The hotel is right on the beach - which is actually very clean compared to the one next to it, for kids it is an ideal location. You are walking distance from a number of very good restaurants and shops. Perhaps not all rooms are great but for us both this time and two years ago we had very good and comfortable rooms. So we truly recommend this hotel, especially given its price range.

The staff were extremely helpful. The hotel is a nice size so it never felt busy. Most of the time we were the only people in the pool. The hotel is so close to the beach as well, with a surf shop next door where you could rent surf boards and body boards.

Firstly the staff were faultless - so happy to help and they sorted me out aa very early taxi when I had to leave with no fuss. They were all so lovely, always smiling and wanting to help. A stone's throw from the beach, a simple but tasty breakfast buffet. The water filling stations are genius - I saved a lot of money on not buying bottled water every day. I got upgraded for free to one of the family rooms which allowed me ground-floor access to sunbathe which I was so grateful for and not expecting, thank you! Rooms were clean and huge , beds soooooo comfy. Second time Ive been here and will definitely come back.
