Accommodation and facilities:
The resort was farther away from Khao Lak than we expected, and overpriced considering this. Haadson Resort was nice however, and the surrounding garden and lake was really nice and well kept. Endless and beautiful beach as in Khao Lak. Very few people seemed to eat lunch and dinner in the restaurant. We went into Khao Lak as we like to see some people in the evenings, but 800 baht to go back and forth is quite expensive if you do it every day, although it really is a bit of way. I think most other hotel guests used the neighbouring small restaurants instead. We recommend Haadson Resort for those who look for a nice and very quiet place close to the beach.

Accommodation and facilities:
The Koh Yao Yai Village resort was more of a djungle experience than we had expected. Along with the fact that the (nice) beach was not for swimming it was a disappointment to us. Upon our departure we saw a note in the reception that there was a daily shuttle service to another beach (for swimming we assume?) but we didn t get any other information about this, neither at the introduction we got upon arrival, nor in the resort information in the bungalow. Since we didn t have any reason to visit the reception during our stay, we felt this option should have been better announced. The resort seemed popular among families with young children but you need to know that there is nothing nearby such as another restaurant, only the one in the resort with the same (not very extensive, but quite expensive) menu for lunch and dinner. The pool area was ok but the water in the pool was not very clear.

Accommodation and facilities:
Haadson Resort near Ko Lak is – simply stated – a charming and wonderful place. If you are looking for peace in your life, a great white sand but quiet beach, clean and charming bungalows, great thai food, sunning yourself beside a clear fresh water pool, a fantastic massage at the on-site spa and attention from a delightful, caring staff, then this is the place for you. Yes, it is a bit more than an hour drive north of the Phuket airport but worth every minute of that drive. But if you are looking for discos, crowded beaches, heavy noisy traffic, shopping malls and zillions of restaraunts then don’t go to the Haadson Resort.

My experience with khaolaklovers.com was very positive. Good reliable information to make my reservation decision and fast response to the actual reservation.

A very special place which was the highlight of our holiday. Unspoilt beaches, a lush tropical location, friendly, relaxed and great value. If you want to escape everything for a few days and see what Khao Lak would have been like ten years ago this is the place.

Accommodation and facilities:
A peaceful paradise! Quiet nice beach that stretches for miles. Perfect for a relaxing/romantic holiday! The hotel is very nice, good standard with comfortable well-designed villas in a wonderful garden/jungle setting. Can recommend the villa with an outdoor shower! TV channels were very few and boring (if you are jetlagged and cannot sleep at night there is nothing to watch). The hotel restaurant closes at ca 22.30 and the local restaurants in the surrounding are also closed at night. So do not expect much to do in the evening! Daytime you can book a snorkling trip and hotel provides a bike and a free daily charter to Kao Lak. The hotel staff is really friendly, despite communication problems at times, they are really helpful and genuinely nice. Breakfast and food overall is good. Try the hotel spa, situated in a beautiful calm outdoor setting. I can really recommend Haadson!

Accommodation and facilities:
Stayed at the Haadson resort for 6 nights over New Year. Lovely hotel for escaping it all, but not for those who want facilities included and nearby. Set by a beautiful beach mainly used by locals, it s a good opportunity to mix with real Thais in their own surroundings. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. No complaints.
Reservation service:
Helpful and efficient, would use Sawadee.com again.

Accommodation and facilities:
This is exactly what we wanted. The Haadson is small, quiet, and ideal for people wanting to get away, relax and enjoy the quieter side of beach life in the Khao Lak area. The staff are very friendly and efficient, the accommodation was comfortable and the food excellent. There is a nice pool, but the beach is meters away with a quite stretch of coast to enjoy. I would highly recommend the Haadson to anybody looking for a slightly less commercial getaway away of the larger cities. My wife and I spent our honeymoon here and were looked after very well. We will definitely be visiting again in the future.
Reservation service:
Perfect. Everything was in order, the airport transfers were on time and comfortable. We were in good hands and will be sure to use this service for our next trip.
