The Sands by Katathani

Our recent stay at your resort was nothing short of extraordinary. From the initial reservation to our final farewell, every moment was infused with warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care. We were deeply moved by the kindness of your staff, whose graciousness turned a family holiday into a cherished memory. What particularly stood out was the remarkable sensitivity and support shown when we had to reschedule our booking due to a medical emergency with our infant. Such flexibility and understanding are rare, and we remain truly grateful. Throughout our stay, we experienced hospitality at its finest. Every detail, whether it was the impeccable cleanliness of the property, the thoughtfully prepared meals, or the seamless service, reflected a level of excellence that is both commendable and inspiring. Your team consistently went above and beyond, ensuring our comfort and well-being at every turn. We have since shared our experience widely among friends and family here in India, enthusiastically recommending your resort, especially to those traveling with young children. It is rare to find a place that so perfectly balances luxury, family-friendliness, and heartfelt hospitality. This was undoubtedly one of our most memorable annual holidays, and we owe that entirely to the outstanding team at your resort. A special note of appreciation to your reservations team, whose professionalism and courtesy were exemplary. We look forward to making your resort a beloved tradition in our family’s travel story. Thank you for setting such a high standard—and for embodying what true hospitality looks like.

We have just spent 10 days in this resort and we cannot fault anything, the staff were amazing. I celebrated my birthday and we had our wedding there and the staff could not do enough for us, it was perfect. We were in the rooms with a beautiful pool directly outside which was amazing. We loved it enough to book again next year.

We booked 2 Junior Suite swim up rooms on the quieter side for myself /Husband and 16 year old twin boys. This was perfect as they had their own space. It was also great when it was hot as you didn’t have to be out in the sun and could still swim! We ventured to the water park area once but was not for us- perfect if you have young children though! Aside of breakfast where it was busy and full of young children ( can sort of avoid this by timing it correctly) we could have been in an adult only hotel. Food and drinks were great. Loved the Talay restaurant. Location is brilliant for the beach/ shops and restaurants! The rooms were excellent and we would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone!

The Sands Khao Lak is an amazing resort & we had an excellent experience there across all areas. The resort is large & well laid out with the fun water park for the kids as well as adult pools & quieter areas too. The food is A+, especially the buffet breakfasts. The rooms are well thought out, have comfortable beds & have plenty of storage. With lots of options to eat, adult & kids activities & an excellent gym & games area, there is always something to do. A short walk from the resort gets you to local shops & bars if you wish. We had such a great time here, would not hesitate to come back again!

Although the resort is almost 2 hours away from Phuket city, there were plenty of activities for the kids within the resort, and for the adults there were lots of restaurants and local food options just on the main street out of the resort. There are also conveniene stores and mini marts within walking distance. For this, the location of the resort is great. The resort has service to book day trips or activities, but there are also heaps of tour provider services on the main street as well. Breakfast was good - very helpful that the resort indicates busy/peak times for breakfast because it does get very busy. My family never experienced any issues with food or service even during the peak times on a couple of days. The highlight was the water activity/facilities that the children loved, from the slides to the lazy river - which is the reason we booked this resort in the first place, and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend for families travelling with children.
