Takua Pa Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Cotton Cafe and Library

To get to Cotton Cafe, you must first enter the La Vela Hotel. The hotel is stylishly designed, and there are really IG locations along the way. Cafe focuses on Croissant and light refreshments, not too many choices of cakes. Cappuccino is the most recommended. We ordered Asia Afternoon Tea Set, cheese cake and Pizza today, all of them are delicious. The environment is cozy and relaxing, it is really pleasant to enjoy coffee, reading, working or meet friends here.#khaolak #staycations #境外遊 #foodie #tripblazers #cafe #summervacation #thailand #lavelakhaolak

Apsara Beachfront Resort & Villa

Come to Khao Lak, Phang Nga Province! When thinking of a beautiful beachfront accommodation near Memory Beach, APSARA Beachfront Resort and Villa is definitely a top choice. It's located on the stunning beachfront, adjacent to the beloved Memorise Beach where many people love to surf 🏄‍♂️. We chose to stay in the villa zone, which has a private swimming pool and spacious rooms that are clearly divided into zones. The rooms can be opened up to become one large room, or if you prefer more privacy, you can close off certain areas. The rooms are beautiful, peaceful, and have a great atmosphere, making it perfect for a relaxing stay. The hotel also has a Beach Club called Karkinos, which is a chic restaurant, café, and bar. The pasta and pizza are delicious, and you can sit back and enjoy the beautiful sunset view while sipping on a drink and snacking on some seaside treats. It's a great place to chill and relax. If you're looking for accommodation in the Khao Lak area, we highly recommend APSARA Beachfront Resort and Villa. It's the perfect place to fully relax and enjoy your vacation 🌴.

Private stay in a luxurious villa by the main beach.

🏝️ I went to Khao Lak again for a relaxing stay at the private villa zone of Villa Apsara Resort by the sea. The atmosphere is peaceful and quiet, perfect for chilling and listening to the sound of waves on Pakarang Beach, Phang Nga province. Today, I stayed in a Family Pool Villa with two bedrooms. The villa is very private and tranquil, and there is a swimming pool where we can jump in directly from the bedroom. In this zone, there is a restaurant called Napalai, which serves both breakfast and all-day dining for villa guests. #Where to go in this hot weather? #Southern team #Luxury hotel booking #Waiting for the travel day #Missing nature #Beachfront accommodation #Phang Nga

Apsara Beachfront Resort and Villa

Apsara Beachfront Resort and Villa เรามาพักที่นี่เพราะ ติดกับชายหาดและสะดวกในการออกไปชิลหรือเล่นเซิร์ฟโดยที่ไม่ต้องขับรถเข้าสู่ Memories Beach เพียงเดินไม่กี่ก้าวก็ถึงแล้ว แถมระหว่างวันก็เฝ้ารอคลื่นกันได้เลย . High Light ที่ชอบมากของที่นี่ คือ Main Pool ที่เป็น Infinity Edge Pool แช่น้ำไปชมชายหาดและนักเล่นเซิร์ฟไปได้เลยครับ ส่วนสระว่ายน้ำที่ติดห้องพักนั้นร่มรื่นด้วยต้นไม้ต่างๆ ครับ เหมาะสำหรับแช่น้ำคลายร้อน ส่วน High Light อีกอย่างหนึ่งคือ Karkinos Beach Club ที่เป็นจุดถ่ายรูปสุดฮิต รวมถึง อาหารอิตาเลี่ยนแท้ๆ ที่อร่อยเป็น No.1 ของเขาหลักเลยครับ . นอกจากนั้น ทางรีสอร์ทก็มีห้องอาหารเช้า ฟิตเนส มีสนามเด็กเล่นนิดหน่อย (ไม่มีคิดส์คลับ) นะครับ ดังนั้นที่นี่จึงไม่ใช่รีสอร์ทสำหรับ Family จ๋า แต่ เป็นรีสอร์ทที่คนชอบ Sea Sand Sun อย่างแท้ทรู . ถ้าใครถามว่า หาดไหนสวยที่สุด เราก็คงตอบว่าหาดนี้แหละ หาดที่ Apsara Beachfront ตั้งอยู่ ชื่อว่า หาดปะการัง เขาหลัก จ.พังงา แต่ ชาวเซิร์ฟคุ้นชื่อ Memories Beach (หาดแห่งความทรงจำ) เป็นชายหาดชาวหลายร้อยเมตร ลักษณะเด่น คือ ชายหาดขาว ทะเลไม่เป็นแอ่งกะทะเหมือนกับหาดอื่นๆ จึงมีคลื่นยาวเหมาะกับการเล่นเซิร์ฟสำหรับมือใหม่ด้วย #thailand #นอนชิลที่พักสวย #เขาหลักพังงา

Resort With Best Family Friendly Activities

JW marriott Khao Lak Resort is the ultimate winner when it comes to being a resort with the most family friendly activities. There's always something for both adults and kids to do, engage and have fun in. These activities are available everyday and most of them are complimentary as long as you're a hotel guest. Families with kids can learn how to make their own cotton candy and also make ice lollies in a traditional spinning wheel. After the hard work, you get to consume your food. In the noon, there's even a coconut boat that goes around the resort selling coconuts and you can buy them fresh off the boat. How cool! A JW garden is on site where one can learn and harvest the fresh produce growing within the garden, talk about sustainable vegetation. For the sports enthusiasts, there are sports event such as floating yoga, muay Thai, hiking, biking, etc, where you can pick up a new sport. At the games room section, there's billard table, hockey table, table tennis, foosball table, etc where you can let loose and have fun. The resort is surrounded by a long swimming pool and you can have a relaxing dip or swim in it. My family and I didn't even leave the resort because of all these awesome activities, we simply love it! #tripblazers

Best Japanese Buffet In JW Marriott Khao Lak

Sakura Japanese Restaurant Address - Sakura Japanese Restaurant, JW Marriott Khao Lak 41/12 Moo 3 Khuk Khak Takua Pa District, Phang-nga 82220, Thailand Ambiance/Facilities - exquisite dining Highlights - buffet with amazing spread Avg. Price per Person - THB1500 Rating - 5/5 Once in a while, I love to indulge and I will happily gorge myself with food at a buffet. I mean that's what buffets are all about right? Pick your food, fill your plates and happily enjoy the food. At Sakura Japanese Restaurant in JW Marriott Khao Lak, you do not want to miss their Japanese buffet. The spread is just awesome and get your dollars worth with all that amazing seafood and cuts of meat. There are barrels of seafood on ice and tons of fresh sashimi, this has got to be my favourite section. You can request for thick cuts of different types of sashimi, and then there's live stations with sushi made on the spot and a chef at the Tappan grill cooking your favourite cuts of meat such as kurobuta pork and Angus beef steaks, etc. Not forgetting all sorts of Japanese yakitori with many yummy skewers and Japanese cooked food such as tonkatsu, curry rice, Japanese yakisoba and fried rice, etc. The rows of food is just endless here at Sakura restaurant and the dessert live station was a hot favourite. People were queueing for Thai pancakes served with caramelized bananas and scoops of ice cream and fresh fruits. This has got to be the best Japanese buffet in Khao Lak and be prepared to eat your night away. #tripblazers

Breakfast With a View At JW Marriott 🍳

What makes me happy in the morning? A good sumptuous breakfast with an amazing beach view! At JW marriott khao lak, my family and I exactly had that. We went early for breakfast and chose the table with a stunning beach view. It was a luxury enjoying the food and having to look out at the blue skies and waves. I got to say the spread at Jw Marriott khao lak was the best! From fresh salads to cheese to a juice bar and fruit bars, they have it all. There are live stations not just serving simple egg omelete and sunny side ups but there's also eggs Benedict, Florentin and fritata. If you're looking for variety, there's even American breakfast to local Thai delights and Asian food which serves both Chinese dim sum and Indian food. Drinks wise, I love their local Thai milk tea aka cha yen but of course you can choose your usual coffee and tea as well. It's no wonder why it's always so busy during breakfast at JW marriott Khao Lak because it's simply the best and food standards/quality is amazingly good! #tripblazers

A Shark Santuary In a Resort 🦈

Stay at JW Marriott Khao Lak and I guarantee you a unique stay experience. Do you know that there's an actual shark sanctuary in the resort? Well, it's true and my family and I got to visit these precious bamboo sharks that JW marriott khao lak and Oceans For All Foundation are putting tremendous efforts in protecting these sea creatures. The bamboo shark sanctuary is only opened to hotel guests and we learnt a great deal about the bamboo sharks and why and how we could do our part in caring for the ocean and all its life within it. Other than that, we get to learn about their breeding program. We saw live sharks and their eggs and how they are being released back into the ocean. We also got to feed some baby sharks and it was a precious and amazing experience for everyone who attended their session at the sanctuary. The bamboo shark sanctuary is a must go, If you're staying at jw marriott khao lak. I would highly recommend it.

Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak

🌞🏖️🌊 Looking for a good place to relax in this heat? How about a 5-star resort by the beach in Bangsak, Khao Lak, Phang Nga? Grand Mercure Khao Lak Bangsak is just around the corner from our home and only about an hour's drive from Phuket Airport. This resort is perfect for a peaceful getaway, with its location right by the sea and rooms facing each other with a long water feature in the middle. This is my second time staying here and I'm still impressed and loving it. I really like the interior of the rooms here. This time, I stayed in a Deluxe room which is more spacious than 48 sqm. The room has a comfortable sofa corner, a cozy bed, and pillows that make you sleep like a baby. The wooden floor of our room is like a small bridge where you can sit and relax with the fish. The swimming pool is located near the sea and has a beautiful view. You can also walk across the wooden bridge to the beach and enjoy the stunning sunset view from there. #HotelReview #BeautifulSwimmingPool #PhangNga

I booked 2 rooms for 5 people and asked for a connection room. One room was large enough to accommodate 5 people. The other room had king size bed and the other was a single bed. The hotel was quite private and quiet for a tired working holiday. The hotel was quite comfortable because the staff were very friendly and helpful and could walk to the beach forever.The hotel is quite close to the beach and also has a swimming pool with a clear view of the sea. There are bars and restaurants that keep you from boredom when you stay. They offer to take you with a golf cart to your room if you don't walk long. Breakfast is varied and tasty, plus fitness and spa. However, the spa pre-booking is considered an impressive hotel. If you have several days off, you will stay at this hotel again.#beachlife

Thailand at Its Best

#hotelstay The Grand Mercure Khao Lak has something that most resorts lack, class. The resort is very new, just opened, yet it feels like your favourite, comfortable sweater, it may be new, but it makes you feel right at home. The young Thai staff are such a pleasure; warm, friendly, efficient, and they always have time for you. They are happy to go the extra mile. The resort is situated on a lovely remote beach. From the quiet, intimate dinner restaurant you can enjoy the daily sunset over the rolling waves. Spacious, luxurious rooms and two resort pools, one by the pool bar and beach, and one more secluded. cater to everyones taste. We loved reading, strolling, lounging, chatting and making new friends, snoozing; it has it all (for those of us who are tired of the nightlife and shopping malls and markets.) The resort that time forgot. We stayed a week, to untangle our nerves. This is one place where more is better. See you there…
