We had a wonderful stay at The Sands for our honeymoon. I had read a few reviews beforehand mentioning there were lots of kids, but honestly it wasn’t an issue at all. The families mostly stayed around the kids’ pool and play areas, and there were adult-only spaces as well, so we always found quiet spots to relax together. The staff were a real highlight. Everyone was welcoming, kind, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. We also really enjoyed some of the activities on offer. We tried the Thai boxing and a language class, and both were such fun experiences that added something extra to the trip. The resort itself has a great mix of spaces. Whether we wanted to swim, read, have a drink, or just sit somewhere peaceful, there was always a spot that suited our mood. Food-wise, there was plenty of variety across the menus. One thing to keep in mind is that while western dishes are available, they won’t taste exactly like home, and that’s okay. The local Thai options were absolutely delicious and easily the standout for us. The location is another big plus. It’s an easy walk to the main street where there are cafes, shops, and restaurants at much lower prices than the resort. We found a few great coffee spots there too if you’re craving something closer to an Aussie-style brew. Overall, The Sands was a fantastic place to spend our honeymoon and we’d happily recommend it.

Just spent a week at this hotel in a Seaside Junior Suite and we enjoyed a perfect stay. The room was large and modern with a huge bed and even had english style plug sockets. This is a family hotel with lots of children but the childrens pool was in a separate part of the hotel and we ate our breakfast in an adult only dining room so we had no issues as 2 adults with no children. First time we have visited Thailand and I knew Thailand is known as the land of smiles. However, we were blown away just how nice and polite and friendly the staff are and they do everything in their power to improve your holiday experience. Hotel grounds were immaculate and the Khao Lak area was very nice and laid back. It was easy to get around the area cheaply via a Tuc Tuc or taxi. Don't often say this but I would definitely return to this hotel as the experience was so good.

Absolutely incredible hotel. Everything from the grounds, the rooms, staff and food was exceptional. The rooms were spacious and clean, we had a room with a view of the adults pool. Really happy they had an adults only section for the buffet, food was good there also. Main restaurant near the beach was reasonably priced and food/drink also delicious. Staff were very friendly and the amenities were more than enough for out 5 day stay there. Hotel is well located and a 10min walk from the main road near the restaurants, you can also get a tuk tuk if you hant be bothered to walk. Highly recommend staying here.

The staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful all the time. The facilities were great, kids had a super time at kids club and the pools. Breakfast was amazing. Found the dinner and room service menu a bit bland, the Thai dishes either didn't have much flavour, or had too much fish sauce so we're too salty, preferred to eat dinner out on the street, which was a 5 minute walk away. We really had a great stay and the place is lovely. Was nice to have stalls set up at night and all the lights for Christmas. It was really special for the kids. Close by to elephants and turtles as well as shops, with lots of tours and experiences offered. The Sands staff were all wonderful, from the airport transfer to being driven to our room and the entire stay. They made our first visit to Thailand really easy and stress free.

Absolutely perfect stay. The pools are fantastic, the staff are warm and welcoming, and the pizzas are great. The resort is located on a very family-friendly strip of Khao Lak with plenty of food options, so it’s easy to walk out for dinner. There are laundry facilities on site, which is a big plus for families. The beach is quiet, clean, and relaxing, far from the hustle and bustle of the main Phuket area. Highly recommended for a peaceful, family-oriented getaway.
