Ayara Villas

We were satisfied with our stay based on what you can expect from a 3 star-hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. WiFi has to be improved since we lost the connection from time to time. The speed of the WiFi could be improved as well.

We loved it! Only bad thing we have to say is we couldn’t stay another night because they were booked. Beautiful, safe, pools are relaxing and shaded for a break from the beach. Their beach is very limited but a block away there is easy access to a huge open beach. Highly recommend this hotel! We didn’t eat there so I can’t say how good the restaurant is but everything else was wonderful.

Nice quite and near the beach

The staff was amazing, and the property is delightful.

Beautiful property and location. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

We were extremely pleased with our stay at Ayara Villas! The room was super spacious for a family of four - huge king size bed, side bed (and a pull-out bed as well!) and we got a free baby crib to the room too. Small kitchen area in the room, good shower. Good black-out curtains. The staff were so nice and friendly, they placed our room near the fabulous children's play room - which was huge, lots of toys, climbing blocks, slide and chill-out sofas and hammocks for adults too :) Books for different aged kids, even some baby toys and baby play mat. Our room had pool access, which was great, as the water was perfect ankle deep for our small children (then continued to the main pool). Several different pool areas, few kids pools and a play/waterslide area for children. (Even older kids would enjoy this.) Restaurant located at the beach was great, breakfast was very versatile - with egg station and a wide hot food & salad buffet. In-house made pancakes, real bacon and even cheese (which is a rare find in hotel breakfasts in Asia) :) Spa & massage also at the beach, which could be added to the room bill. Small private beach, not so suitable for youngest children, but nice none the less. Bigger /longer beach a short walk away. Location on a calm street with a few local restaurants near by. Short taxi ride or abt 1km walk to "main street" with restaurants, shops etc. Hotel offers shuttle to town every night at 6pm (big local market open 4 days a week).

Room smelled like a humid basement. Bedsheets and towels were dirty. The white Toilet seat had brown stains. Arrived late. Reception not able to speak English. Checked out the next morning. Receptionist manager told we would get a one night compensation (out af 3), but according to Hotels.com they deny that. Breakfast was fine.

Good location, nice staff. We had the beachfront villa which was very nice but at night the waves crashes on the concrete wall (that is between the ocean and the property) makes loud noise and shakes the ground.

Excellent stay at Ayara Villa. The nice front lady always gave me good recommendations on where I can find a good local food.

Excellent stay at Ayara Villas from swift, friendly check in to helpful staff. Nothing was too much effort for them. Clean rooms with plenty of towels, including pool beach towels. Hair dryer in room and toiletries. Kettle for hot drinks with sachets of coffee, creamer and tea bags. A bottle of water provided per person per day. Beer and soft drinks in fridge which were payable. Umbrellas provided for the frequent downpours! Three hotel swimming pools which were very clean, with showering facilities and poolside loungers. Buffet style breakfast with a choice of eggs different ways, bread/toast, croissants, bacon, fruit, cereal, thai dishes, pancakes. Plenty of choice. Good coffee.

The staff at Ayara villas were fantastic, amazing service from start to finish. They were always smiling, nothing was too much trouble and they were always helpful. We ended up in a pool access room which was huge and beautiful with the biggest bed we have ever seen! It was in a very quiet location but a lovely 10 minute stroll to the main strip with all the bars and restaurants, and another 5 minutes on from there was the night market. Fantastic location. We loved our stay at Ayara villas.

Honest and welcoming… our beach side villa had just been refurbished to a high standard… the resort itself was a little tired but nothing that couldn’t be easily fixed… the staff were excellent the breakfast was a bit weak but again nothing that couldn’t be easily improved…

We stayed 17 nights in a spacious, spotlessly clean garden villa overlooking a pool (there are multiple pools) which was serviced daily by happy and friendly staff. Breakfast was great! We ate for an hour everyday overlooking the ocean and to the sound of crashing waves. Food is cooked to order as well as a buffet. All the food is delicious and all the staff are lovely. Reception staff speak good English and kindly organised a motor bike for us at a good price. Location is very good. On the beach, yes close to the tourist Bang Niang Night Market but better still is the Local Market open everyday from 2pm. This market sells delicious Local Thai food, fruit, vegetables and clothes. It is located behind Mini C and Tesco Lotus, near petrol station, about 3 km north from Ayara Villas. Thankyou to all staff for a wonderful stay.

We always stay at the Ayara and once again they were amazing!!

I think I was lucky with my outward facing room, windows all around overlooking the jungle and hills and it was a big apartment too. It was quiet and I felt safe in all of Khoa Lak as a female on my own. All staff were friendly and I liked it was tucked away from the hussle but still walkable. Nice beaches near by. Food is ok for 3 star. Pools and beach were nice too and do close to a beautiful stretch of public beach. The only thing i would say for guests is to show then where their room is on a map as i got lost at 1am on my first night trying to find my room in the dark jungle themed areas.

Lovely resort, great swimming pool, friendly staff

Very welcoming hotel and the staff are excellent. We were given and upgraded room with pool access and the rooms are. Very good. Hotel is in 3 sections, villas close to the beach, garden villas in an area between 2 quiet Soi's and 2 low rise blocks are the back which are fairly modern - each area has a good size pool As expected the family block has mainly families in so the pool can get lively but the rest of the hotel is tranquil

Place is dated. Room was spacious overlooking a pool. The whole place felt dark...little sun reaching the property. Located 2 blocks from water in a residential neighborhood. The beach is a joke...30 meters of sand between 2 huge cement walls. There is a reason why you wont find a photo of the beach on their website. About 30 beach chairs for 200 guests..no chance if you show up after 9am. Breakfast was good. Booked 10 days but checked out after 2 once i found a proper beach resort. I am trying to upload a pic but Hotels.com won't me.

This was a nice clean walkable family friendly beach resort hotel where we stayed while getting scuba certified for a couple days elsewhere in Khaolak. Nice pools beach restaurant and massage place. Very clean and modern rooms. The included breakfast buffet was very good.
