Welcome to paradise! Sleeping in floating bungalows is everyone's DREAM, right!? Imagine waking up surrounded by calm waters that are crystal clear and an idyllic blue... well, that's what you get at the floating resort in Khao Sok National Park! Each of the 30 bungalows has its own veranda, perfect to lie on and watch the jungle night sky. There's also a bar area to get your beer fix and a chill space for the evenings.

This hotel is perfect for relaxing by the pool after some busy days exploring. With a lovely pool and plenty of places to play cards, sip cocktails and catch a tan, its the perfect base. Oh and did we mention we're right next to the beach! Lush right?!

Whatever you want to do, this hotel has got you covered. It's only a couple of minutes walk to Phi Phi's gorgeous white sand Loh Dalum Beach and just over 5 minutes to Ton Sai Beach and Laem Hin Beach. Grab a snorkel and get ready to get your tan on! If exploring is more your thing, then the walk to the famous viewpoint is super close and there are lots of restaurants and shops nearby to mooch around.

We've got another lush place to stay in Phuket! We've got an outdoor pool, we're close to all the action and we'll only be 700 metres from Patong beach!
