Similana
Resort, Khao Lak, Pakweeb Beach
We loved this resort. Very peaceful, very good beach for swimming,
no disco music and no motor vehicles. Beautiful landscape and pictoresque
bungalows. The staff did not speak english very well but they tried
their best. Rooms were very clean and had all the comfortables needed.
Recommended if you want to relax. Not a luxury resort but very nice.
Many steps and a lot of climbing so not good if you have difficulties
to walk. All the shops and restarants are far away so if you like
those things, this is not your place. |

Extremely disappointing. Have been there previously and it was good.
Now that it has been sold for takeover in April nothing is being repaired
around the place. The swimming pool has cracked tiles that are dangerous,
I nearly cut my foot on one. Also for the duration of our stay the
tablecloths in the restaurant were not changed at all, so all the
food stains from previous meals were there the whole time. The standard
of cleaning in rooms was adequate. If they are going to ask full price,
they should be offering the same service as before. |

Similana Resort, Khao Lak, Pakweeb Beach
Resort met all my expectations but I was a little surprised that it
consisted of so many units. We stayed in beachfront unit, great location
and provided everything we needed. Staff very friendly, helpful and
spoke good English. Breakfast was unto standard but at times staff
were a little slow to replenish fresh fruit plates. The biggest thinf
FOR resort maybe alos AGAINST , is it s isolation, as it is approx
15 mins from closest town (500baht return in taxi) but I found isolation
and peace and quiet wxactly what I was looking for. Not a young person/s
resport, more geared to families or middle aged. Without hesitation
would return to Similana |

Similana was great! Very relaxing place. Spa services were good and
very reasonably priced. Restaurant was also good and relatively inexpensive.
If you walk 5 minutes to the left of the hotel on the beach tehre
are 3 or 4 beachshack restaurants which have decent food and drinks
for very cheap. Similana is probably 2-3 star hotel, but it is clean
and is in a very natural setting if thats what you re looking for
and is a good deal for USD $100/night in the peak weeks. They are
individual bungalows set up on cliff overlooking ocean or down below
right on the beach. |

We stayed one month in Thailand at six differnt places and this was
our favorite. The setting, the beaches, the weather, the number of
people, the staff and facilites all made this a very memorable stay.
Miles of beautiful beaches. Great food at the restaurant and on the
beaches. Still many Tsunami stories and the area definitely could
use more business to help them. the staff was very atentive yet you
hardly noticed them. This is where we will return to first. |

One of my favourite places in Thailand. Superb location, if you like
to spend your holiday quiet and a little bit isolated! Beautiful beach!Beachfront
Bungalows very nice(but restaurant far to walk)and well-equipped.
Oawthong restaurant at the beach nearly 200meters away with delicious
food and a few small bungalows.Distance to Khao Lakh(Nang Thong) about
15km. Very friendly staff!Topspot! |

Excellent hotel right on the beach, just a short taxi ride out of
Khao Lak town. Good facilities and very friendly and helpful staff
- would certainly stay there again if I was in the region. The beach
tree houses really are fantastic! |
