RELAX ECO Life Center-Khao Lak

The room was very unique - like a little hobbit house in a beautiful garden. We really liked the layout of the room, which had plenty of space and a little patio in the front.

There was nothing we didn't like. We had to watch for the step down to the bathroom area, but that was OK. The pool was nice, but in front of other rooms, so we weren't sure if we could use it, but found out later that it was open to everyone.

Remote, quiet resort. Lovely plants, swimming pool, good breakfast, nice staff.

Hard to get to, you need a taxi or rent a car/motorbike.

Second time staying here as it’s so lovely! Superb location, peaceful yet close enough to the beach and restaurants. Stunning gardens, quirky buildings set in the jungle.

Very private facility, very clean and relaxing with wonderful host

Stunning peaceful setting close to nature. Beautiful well-kept gardens. 2km from a nice quiet beach and great places to eat

Room was a bit damp

Cool quirky place in great location

A bit rundown

It's a really nice place . There's a small swimming pool in the jungle. Nice vibe! Thank you !

Amazing place with the very nice and helpful owner, Tunde. Location is excellent, you can rent a schooter from in place and reach nearby places easily. Very quiet, relaxing place.

Wonderfull! Vhery nice, quiet environment. 3 minutes to the most beautiful beach. Everything in nature. many little birds, the sound of nature.

Wonderful hotel's owner! Every room has unique interesting design. Good for it's price

A bit dusty and dirty rooms, hotel is pretty far from beach

Worthy room from this price. It's much more than our expectation. The room has a huge space and comfy.

I love their service, feel like i’m home.

[This review continues in the next section] Firstly let me say this poor review has nothing to do with the lovely Thai staff who were incredibly helpful, friendly and not at all at fault (the owner was actually away overseas at the time of our stay and had to be called multiple times to resolve various issues). I’m not sure what the other rooms were like, but the “deluxe 2br villa” we stayed in was quite overpriced for what it was, and I would definitely not recommend staying here. The only good thing that can be said is it was spacious. It’s a shame the majority of that space was unusable due to no airconditioning making it around a sweltering and unbearable 40 degrees (104 Fahrenheit) throughout the day. Despite being listed as an airconditioned villa, the only aircon was a single, inadequate wall unit in the bedrooms at the back which was mounted in a hole cut through the shared wall, half sticking out in each room. Also, due to the lack of s-bends in the plumbing and the extreme heat, the bathroom reeked of sewage. The photos on the booking.com website for the 2br deluxe villa are four years old and really need to be updated, as does the inclusions list. Differences include: there is only a half-sized fridge, no toaster and no microwave in the kitchen, only a gas cooktop, both burners with broken ignition requiring very dangerous manual ignition with a regular lighter resulting in singed fingers; the TV is not in the common area, it is ceiling mounted in one of the bedrooms and wouldn’t turn on displaying a constant ‘check signal’ error; rather than nice decorations on the shelving, a box of rat poison was featured alluding to the major mouse/rat problem in the villa—we could hear them scurrying around in the ceiling and there were droppings all over the kitchen; I’m not too sure what the listed ‘terrace’ would have been either. The photos also do not give an accurate depiction of the free breakfast, as it was not much more than you’d get at a hostel.

Some important things the photos don’t show are that two entire walls and the sliding front entrance door (which jammed constantly and didn’t close properly with a large gap at the top) in the main living, dining, and kitchen space were just fly screens, many with holes and gaps where mosquitoes, bugs and geckoes (the only creature I didn’t mind sharing my room with) came in and out as they pleased. We had to cover ourselves head to toe with insect repellant and were still eaten alive by mozzies even while sleeping. The fact that there are no glass windows and the curtains only cover half the screened walls, means there was zero privacy in sight, sound or smell. Despite promoting itself as a no smoking property, there were constantly people smoking just outside the room (even in the common area during breakfast) with the smell and smoke coming straight in through the screens. This was a major issue as one of us suffers from an autoimmune condition exacerbated by cigarette smoke and to stress how important this was, we had specifically asked for a non-smoking room in the special requests.   These are all things one might expect from a much cheaper, budget place to stay, of which there are a multitude in Thailand! Needless to say, we were almost relieved when we were forced to cut our stay short and return to Australia due to the virus despite having paid for 4 unused nights at this property. I sure hope both booking.com as well as Khao Lak Relax Resort amends their listing appropriately to avoid future guests having stays as unpleasant as ours was!

La colazione era ottima , la posizione era perfetta per spostarsi sia a nord che a sud necessario uno scooter per muoversi in libertà . Un grazie a tutto lo staff e in particolare a Mili che ci ha aiutato a risolvere piccoli problemi logistici

Merci pour tout, on a été chaleureusement accueilli, on s'est occupé de tout pour nous, excursion à des prix imbattables, location de scooter... L'hôtel est sublime et idéalement placé. Je recommande fortement à tout le monde de séjourner ici. Encore un grand merci pour ce séjour..

Es ist ein schöne gemütliche und entspannte Unterkunft. Die Zimmer sind alle unterschiedlich und wir hatten erst ein Zimmer mit Blick auf den Pool. Nachdem es durch Eichhörnchen, die in die Deckenkonstruktion kamen, nachts lauter geworden ist, haben wir anstandslos ein neues Zimmer bekommen. Die Chefin und auch ihr Sohn sind sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das andere Zimmer war im 1. Stock mit Balkon und Sicht auf den wunderschön angelegten Garten. Wir hatten ein Mietauto, so konnten wir zu den nahegelegenen sehr schönen Stränden fahren. Es können hier auch Roller dafür gemietet werden, denn das Hotel liegt etwas abseits, dafür auch ohne Trubbel. Das Essen ist lecker und der Service sehr gut. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal

die Zimmer sind viel zu ringhörig, man hört wirklich alles!

Le calme ☺️

Poussière sous le lit

Добрый день! Отличное расположение отеля, до пляжа Light Beach (выходя из отеля поворачиваем налево) расстояние около 2 км., идти примерно 20 мин. Море прекрасное, а после Пхукета пляжи кажутся даже пустынными) Отель находится на границе джунглей, вечером можно слушать звуки природы! Также относительно рядом находятся магазины Lotus, 7-Eleven и местные рынки (нужно идти в сторону трассы). Отличные менеджеры, делают всё возможное для комфортного проживания. Воду можно набирать бесплатно из кулера в столовой.

Chambre assez spacieuse

Le ménage est fait un jour sur 2, alors que nous étions 4 dans une chambre Piscine minuscule aucun intérêt La patronne semble à l’ouest

Die Besitzer und die Beschäftigten sind sehr Zuvorkommend und Hilfsbereit. Die Lage ist gut für Ausflüge. Die Zimmer sind großzügig und sehr individuell gestaltet. Das Ambiente des Hotels ist sehr erholsam.

Der Weg zum sehr langen Strand ist nur gut mit dem Roller oder Auto erreichbar, dafür sehr schön, sauber und nicht zu überlaufen.

La possibilité de louer un scooter sur place. Le jardin est très beau. Le personnel thaïlandais est souriant et agréable.

La chambre et la salle de bains méritent un gros nettoyage / rafraîchissement. Ce n'était ni propre ni confortable. Le rapport qualité prix pourrait être amélioré. Des crottes de souris dans les placards, des tringles de penderie qui ne tiennent pas, le sol était sale... en bref, passez votre chemin.

La gentillesse du personnel et de Veronika. Je la remercie pour son hospitalité et sa disponibilité, elle nous fait nous sentir comme chez soi. De plus, l’hébergement est en pleine nature, c’est très agréable.

Vi havde 4 nætter her med vores to børn. Det var et rigtig skønt og fredfyldt sted, og personalet var meget imødekommende og hjælpsomme. Vores bungalow var hyggelig og der var rent. Stedet har en lille café, hvor man kan tilkøbe morgenmad, og man kan også sidde der og nyde noget at drikke om aftenen. Man skal være opmærksom på, at hotellet ligger lidt afsides fra både strand og restauranter. Det var ikke et problem for os, da man både kan leje cykler og scooter (og bil - taxi er også en mulighed). Rigtig god valuta for pengene - og dejligt med aircondition :-)

Sengene var hårde, men det er vist standard for Thailand.

Me gustó mucho el trato de la recepcionista Mili, fue muy atenta a mis necesidades, incluso me llevó un día con ella para conocer más la vida local del lugar, lo cual agradezco mucho. El jardín es muy bonito y tranquilo. Probé tres habitaciones porque en medio de la estancia fui a Surin island. Algunas habitaciones mejores que otras, pero en general todo muy bien. Tienen alquiler de moto y bicicleta. El restaurante 8 fish, hace una lubina increíble ..está en la playa de al lado. Gracias!!

La segunda noche me la cobraron, a pesar de que no dormí ahí y pedí con tiempo mover mis cosas, porque estaba en una isla 🌴.
