We booked a long stay at half-board for 15 nights with some friends. From the moment we arrived I felt really positive about the hotel. The rooms and the grounds felt really special and from seeing the big hermit crabs on the gorgeous beach on the first night I knew we had made a great choice. We visited friends at some other ostensibly superior hotels in Khao Lak while we were there but they never felt as tasteful as Kantary Beach. Every night in the restaurant and also for breakfast the service was amazing. While everywhere in Khao Lak looks to be struggling against the current pandemic situation the morale at this place feels really good. The gardeners are always out keeping it in shape.
