Le Meridien Khao Lak Resort & Spa

Julian Lutterberg

The Le Meridien is a relatively modern hotel in a beautiful beachfront location. We particularly enjoyed the rooms, which are well-designed and very spacious. Also, the staff deserves a special mention – they were consistently friendly and helpful throughout our stay. ​Breakfast offers a wide variety, though we found the main dining hall and terrace to be quite noisy with noticeable food smells. We highly recommend using the separate 'Adults Only' area for a more relaxed start. The hotel bars offer a good selection; prices are standard for a resort of this class (okay during Happy Hour), but still high compared to local Thai standards. Significantly cheaper alternatives are available at the private beach bars just a few meters away. ​However, our 3-night stay was significantly impacted by a large wedding. While we understand that hotels host weddings and we wish the couple all the best, the execution here was disappointing. We only received a letter detailing the massive schedule of closures (affecting Pool 2, Beach Grill, Coconut Jo's, and other areas) on 30th January – despite the wedding festivities actually starting on 29th January. ​Being informed after restrictions have already begun is unacceptable for a resort of this caliber. The wedding felt omnipresent: Loud music played until late in the evening, and with so many blocked-off areas, it felt like we were bystanders at someone else's party rather than guests at a relaxing resort. ​For this reason, we unfortunately cannot recommend this hotel to travelers seeking complete relaxation.

I stayed at Le Méridien Khao Lak for three nights, and it was an excellent place to truly relax. The resort is very peaceful and quiet, making it perfect for a restful getaway. All the staff were extremely friendly and always greeted us with warm smiles. The room and overall resort facilities were well maintained and comfortable. In addition to the activity areas and kids’ club, the resort offers many things to enjoy for both adults and children. There are three swimming pools, and there were always plenty of beach chairs available, so it never felt crowded. Most of the food at the resort’s restaurants was delicious, and the atmosphere was also very pleasant. The only downside was that when there was a wedding event held at the resort, it could become a bit noisy, especially around the breakfast restaurant, which felt crowded and hectic at times. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this resort for a relaxing vacation.

We stayed in Le Meridian for 7 nights as part of a Tui Multi Centre Holiday. From the very start of the trip the staff were very helpful and welcoming, explaining all the food options, entertainment and activities. There were many pools to relax in as well as the private hotel beach where they had water sports available. We learnt how to paddleboard whilst staying here which was great fun! Norn, a waitress from the Pizzeria was excellent! Norn remembered our order from previous visits and took great care in explaining the gluten free options for me, along with recommending places for us to visit during our onwards trip to Phuket. Aside from the pizzeria, there was a great selection of food throughout the day and everything tasted very fresh. One of the highlights was the evening bbq on the beach front, overlooking the sunset by Coconut Joe’s. The rooms were well maintained with a modern interior. We loved watching all the wildlife around the resort, from lizards, to birds and fish in the sea. We would definitely stay here again. A very memorable holiday!

Beautiful and clean place to visit for a relaxing holiday with superior amenities, activities and food. Exceptional service all round every single member of staff goes above and beyond from the ground maintenance, cleaners, waitress, reception and so on. Extra special customer service at le scoop by Nong and Katey. Such friendly, polite customer service and attention to detail. They even remembered my order which was brilliant! I would definitely recommend this resort and would love to visit again!

We stayed here for 10 nights in early December and would definitely stay again. There were 3 weddings held during our stay but we were not disrupted at all. Some areas were closed off but not for too long and it was lovely to see the decorations. Noise was kept to a minimum and we didn’t notice it once inside our room. The staff absolutely make the hotel, from the bar staff to housekeeping, everyone was amazing. We got engaged whilst on our last day and the hotel decorated our room and had a bottle of champagne waiting for us in our room when we returned from our day out! Location is a bit far out however there are a lot of bars, restaurants and a few shops in walking distance. The reception staff were more than happy to help us with making any plans/booking taxis and ensuring we had the best time. Breakfast was possibly the best I’ve ever had and I’ve been dreaming about the caramel banana since I came home.
