Chongfah Resort

We had such a great stay at Chongfah Beach Resort in Khao Lak. It’s a real boutique spot—super peaceful, really well kept, and just ideal if you want to switch off and relax. One of the things we liked most was how calm and quiet everything was. No noise, no crowds, just a really chilled, peaceful vibe the whole time. The gardens are gorgeous and clearly very well looked after, giving the whole place a lush tropical oasis feel. The resort also has its own private beach, which was clean, beautiful, and never busy. It was perfect for watching the sunset, or just sitting back and listening to the waves. We also had a really good experience at Seaborn Restaurant. The food was consistently good, but what really stood out was the service.

The reception team were welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived. They had requested my arrival time and the room was ready on our arrival at 12.30 which was great as this was well before their normal check in time. The room was clean. We found the bed very hard but requested a mattress topper to soften it the next morning and it was immediately done which we appreciated. It made a big difference to our sleep quality. We were not very excited by the breakfast. It was a struggle to get ripe pineapple and they struggled to give my fried eggs that were not broken. The cake and pastries were the same everyday. The coffee was very good. We do appreciate in a small hotel offering a big buffet is hard but to ring the changes a bit more on the cake and pastries front would have been nice. Never a problem to get a sunbed and the pool was very nice. The rooms were very dark but we did expect this based on other reviews. We would definitely return for a few nights.

The location is brilliant, the room was perfect, the staff are fantastic, everyone is super friendly and the food is excellent!

This has to be the most idyllic place to stay. The staff are so attentive and friendly. The room staff are like fairies you never see them you leave your room it’s tidied cleaned and notes and treats left. Our go to place for chilling

Chongfah hotel is a delightful, small (30’ish rooms) oceanfront hotel, with easy side access to the beach. All the hotel staff were friendly, helpful & gave that lovely Thai warmth that makes you feel at home. Our room was spacious & beautifully clean, which was no easy task with all the sand. Serviced twice daily. The location was great - come out of the hotel & turn right, it’s a short walk to the busy, touristy town. Turn left out of the hotel and at there are a smaller selection of more local restaurants, beach bars & places for a massage. We particularly enjoyed Bobby’s beach bar, Chicken House restaurant and The One Time Thai Massage (adjacent to Bobby’s). At low tide, you can walk for 2.5miles along the beach, wading across a couple of estuaries, past the big, chain hotels, to the ‘lighthouse’. For a small fee (20 baht) there is a raft service to cross the first (& deepest) estuary, at high tide. It is also possible to walk along the more beautiful, quieter beach in the other direction at low tide. After a storm earlier in the year, it is not quite so straightforward but worth it. There is a sea defence / retaining wall in front of the hotel so to access, turn left out of the hotel onto the road & walk to the end, passed Bobby’s beach bar & The One More Thai massage. Would definitely recommend Chongfah hotel & would happily stay again.

Perfect smaller resort beautiful staff helped us immensely nothing was a problem. Probably the best beachside property we have stayed at In Thailand over the thirty odd years we have been coming. Beach is very clean with minimal plastic as is the property and rooms . There are cheaper options here but the savings are in the location.

Room was excellent staff were 👌 awesome especially Kew Our room lady

Outstanding service

The staff were exceptional. The accommodation was lovely and comfortable. It was only a few minutes walk to local restaurants, bars and the night market.

Petite structure ( 30 chambres ) très calme, personnel super sympa, 1 problème : résolu dans l'heure qui suit.

Lovely hotel in lots of ways

A gem. All the staff were amazing and always smiled. Most spoke some English. The front desk staff were particularly helpful in arranging for us to be picked up at the airport with our name on a sign and upgraded us to a beachfront bungalow. This made our trip. Beds were the most comfortable in Thailand and real coffee in the room. Great location and easy to walk a to stores, restaurants. The resort is on the ocean but to swim or do long walks you need to walk less than 5 minutes. This was not a problem for us. Breakfast buffet one of the best we have had in Thailand.

Great place to enjoy some quiet time. The "beach" doesn't really exist, as it's some sand on top of a seawall. Don't expect to get in the ocean here. The pool is beautiful though, and the restaurant served delicious food, including the freshest coconuts we had in Thailand!

Beautiful serene boutique hotel and accommodation where the staff are so helpful- a great base to explore the beaches and local area- thank you so much.

We stayed for 3 nights, and it was great! Can't recommend the hotel enough. It is close to the market (walking distance) but also feels far from the action which helps with relaxation and sleep. The staff are absolutely amazing, extremly kind and will help with any request. Breakfast is good with multiple options. Their location is right on the beach so you'll be able to eat with a great view. 10/10

I had an excellent stay at this property. The staff are friendly and my beachfront room was amazing. It was comfortable and well-appointed. The location was great as it was in walking distance to many restaurants and other amenities. Highly recommended

Beautiful hotel with the most amazing staff

The staff were great and very friendly. They could not have done more for us

Hotel is really well designed with lovely views of the sea and sunsets. Room was very clean and spacious. The staff were great. All really nice and friendly.

I absolutely loved this place. The staff here are very kind, attentive, and helpful. I left for five days and returned, and they gave me the same room with a "welcome back" message and in-person greetings. They were awesome. The service exceeded my expectations, and the room was lovely. The food was good, atmosphere great, design and aesthetic cool, breakfast epic, etc. All at a very reasonable price (ridiculous price for me coming from Miami). 5 stars
