Le MENARA KHAO LAK

LE MENARA’s gentle authentic charm offered the perfect retreat of comfort for us to recharge. We woke up each morning to pleasant birdsong and were welcomed by the shimmering blue of their 130m swimming pool as we enjoyed our morning swim. Whether we explored the area by foot as waves lapped at our feet, or took a scenic ride to the nearest shop or activity, LE MENARA is conveniently situated. The poolside villa we stayed at was very comfortable and spacious, always refreshed to our liking. We marvelled at the bespoke hand-painted murals which echoed the hotel’s natural surroundings, and we adored the faint happy chirping of baby sparrows outside our roof! The service is exceptional - they deliver our every request with efficiency and gentle friendly smiles. What distinguishes LE MENARA far above any standardised 5-star hotel is their attentiveness and that consistent authentic personal touch - they thoughtfully tailored every detail to our preference. If you are looking for an authentic retreat to recharge, we recommend this hotel as our top choice - for its quality, and the tranquility in the atmosphere at LE MENARA is simply magical. A very special mention to the hotel manager, Marco, who is tirelessly dedicated to the hotel. This was our 5th visit & we didn’t think it could get better, but it did! He nurtures a multicultural staff with efficiency, excellence, discipline and kindness. We enjoyed every moment!! You’re missing out if you haven’t been to this gem!

This is a repeat visit for us. Le Menara is tucked away in North Khao Lak, a little away from the town centre with its own quiet strip of beach heaven. Fantastic location for those looking for a chilled getaway from the bustle of office/city life. Scenery is postcard perfect everywhere you turn. Rooms are spacious and service friendly. For swimming buffs, this one is for you, complete with an outdoors 120m pool one way (that’s more than double the usual Olympic sized pools). Imagine you’re in a lap of luxury amidst Castaway settings (that Tom Hanks movie, for those who know it), and you’re there. Even more notable is their head chef, Mana, at the hotel restaurant, L’Amore. He is an excellent chef, skilled across a range of local and international cuisines. Not only is his technique and execution world class, he consistently delivers wonderful dishes that accompany each other so well. He is also thoughtful, remembers your preferences and is very skilled at tailoring a menu to suit your palate on any given day. We have stayed at various different five- and six-star hotels around the globe and we would seriously return just to eat with him again!! If you visit, help us say a friendly hello to Mana from Amy and James please. Adore this scenic place - more so since they are now equipped with an incredible chef at their restaurant so you’d never have to venture far to get great food! P.S. As with anywhere else in Thailand, bring insect repellent!
