Tiny room, with no space for luggage, dominated by a big wooden desk for the bed with sharp edges = bloody shin. Small matress ( queen size) rock hard= backpain. Soft Pillow without support for neck= neckpain. Aircon opposite your bed with cold air into your face= catch a cold. Sliding door to bathroom just a plank without handle= broken... More

It was 'wow' when we arrived at the resort. It looks just like the photos on the website, sleek and modern on one of the best location on the Gulf of Thailand. It should have been a great resort but somehow the construction and design just didn't seem to work. We were a group of 4 friends booked for 6... More

Aava Resort really made our dream vacation on Thailand. We had heard good things about it from our friends and decided to spend a week there. Still we were suprised how well everything worked, a perfect combination of Thai hospitality and modern, high standard living. With only 28 rooms it had a hotel feel but with great pool and sunbathing... More

We have just returned from a 6 day stay at Aava Resort. Whilst the location is fantastic, directly on the beach, the resort is in desperate need of renovation despite opening just 3 years ago. We opted for a 2 bedroom family villa and on arrival found: drawers which did not open and shut properly, the room smelling of sewerage... More

Dear 273CarolineB, thank you for your time and review about your stay at Aava Resort & Spa. Our staff and management are truly sorry that your holiday at Aava did not fulfill your expectations. Maintenance is one of the most challenging issues in sea front hotel such as Aava. Ruff weather conditions with constant sun, occasional heavy rain and sea... More

We have just returned from a 10 night stay at the Aava Resort and Spa and we had an amazing experience. We would give the overall rating as 'good' but this is not an option but it is better than 'average' but not 'very good' as we have indicated. The location is the best part of staying at Aava -...

Enjoyed a 7 day stay at Aava over New Year. For demanding tourists, favouring Scandinavian standards you won't be disappointed; yes, price points are a bit high for both food and trips, but you can get your needs covered for weeks if you're just in for relaxation and the service and food is in top. And yes wood will be... More

We arrived on bicycles and were received like kings. When a bike had a breakdown staff immediately arranged limousine transfer (ok, it was a Prius) to carry bicycle 70kms to nearest repair facility for a reasonable price. They also arranged for a car to drop our luggage at our next destination. They helped with immigration issues (visa extension). Drinks and... More

Having travelled to Thailand for almost 20 years, we were desperate to find somewhere that re-captured the beauty of the early years of our travel to Thailand. Koh Samui and Phuket are now so vile with over-development, we felt our search would be in vain-until we found Aava Resort and Spa in Khanoum. This hidden gem lies on a 9km... More

Aava Resort is a wonderful resort on a long stretch of white sandy lonely beach.... The rooms are big and very comfortable, big beds with good matress and pillows, huge bathrooms. Good pool and pooldeck next to the beach. Very good restaurant and tasty food. Excellent service and very helpful and friendly staff. A place to relax and pamper yourself.

The hotel is situated in a very quiet and unspoiled part of Thailand and that is nice. The beach is beautiful. The hotel has very stylish "Scandinavian" decor but in many details style goes against practicality. Wide areas covered with a black floor boarding is not the best solution in Thailand where the sun is hitting hard all day. Also... More
