Serene, peaceful, sublime!

The Sarojin - Khao Lak

A comfortable one hour drive north of Phuket is the stunning location of the Sarojin at Khao Lak. On arrival, you are made instantly welcome with a cold towel and a refreshing fruit cocktail before being personally escorted to your accommodation or “residences” as they are called. This is part of the ethos of the Sarojin in as much your sojourn here is reminiscent of “staying as a guest at a friend’s private estate”. There is such a feeling of space both in the residences and the grounds which stretch down to the beach overlooking the azure Andaman Sea.

Whilst the emphasis is on relaxation, there is so much to do if you are in an adventurous mood. Five national parks are nearby and the Similan and Surin Islands Marine National Parks, one of the world’s top ten dive sites is less than an hour away by boat. The hotel’s own “Lady Sarojin” luxury boat will whisk you there in comfort. Personal guides will pander to your every need and the ultimate personal concierge, the “imagineer” delights in creating personalized adventures “just for 2”.  All these come at a price, but are well worth it!!

The spa is one of the best I have come across and seemed to be a symphony of sounds choreographed to the massage treatment. I was so relaxed, I fell asleep long before it was over!! Highly recommended.

In addition to the fine cuisine provided by the restaurants, there are frequent beach barbecues with a magnificent array of seafood for a casual, carefree dinner.

For the occasional change of ambience, there are 3 or 4 beach bars close by serving local Thai food and cold beer!

All in all, an excellent stay and I could find fault with nothing. The staff were so friendly and could not do enough for their guests. When I was asked by the owners Kate and Andrew to fill in the guest comments book, all I could say was “You just got everything right!”
