Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają
- Massive lagoon pool that winds through the resort
- Dead-silent, pristine beach with almost no public foot traffic
- Breakfast buffet at Goji Kitchen is widely considered one of the best in Khao Lak
Szybki przegląd: It is beautifully isolated, which is code for 'you are trapped here unless you pay for a taxi or shuttle.'
Przejrzane przez @jules.tobin: I checked into the Khao Lak Marriott and was blown away by the space. Having two bathrooms was a game changer, and the ocean view from my balcony was the perfect spot for morning coffee. The staff even left a cute towel bunny on my bed!

FAQ i ukryte porady
Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.
Is this the JW Marriott?
No. This is the 'Khao Lak Marriott Beach Resort & Spa' in Bang Muang. The JW Marriott is 15km south in Khuk Khak. Don't mix them up!
Is there a shuttle to town?
Yes, but it's paid (approx. 100 THB/person/way) and runs every ~2 hours starting at 11 AM.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Not really. There are no immediate neighbors. You might find a local shack 15-20 mins walk down the beach, but it's not reliable.
Is the pool heated?
No, but in Thailand's heat, you won't want it to be. It's refreshing.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate, but highly recommended. The spread at Goji Kitchen is massive.
Are there connecting rooms?
Yes, available upon request for families.

💡The 'Garden View' rooms often just face a hedge or a wall.
💡Room service prices are actually comparable to the restaurants, making in-room dining a decent deal.
