Apsara Beachfront Resort & Villa

Khao Lak, Thailand

Star rating

The hotel

You could be forgiven for thinking the Apsara is only for water babies, with its beachfront setting, infinity swimming pool, villa pool, two kids' pools, pool villa upgrades, water slide and of course, the obligatory Jacuzzi. But there’s more to the Apsara than sun, sea and sand. Set in unspoilt tropical greenery, along Pakarang Beach, this All Inclusive haven offers a range of drinks and things to do. There’s the Thai cookery classes, Thai boxing, spa treatments, bike rental and kayaking to name but a few!

Amazing stay at Apsara Beachfront Resort Wow! What a wonderful all inclusive 14 night stay at Apsara. We had a pool villa which was fantastic. The food was outstanding at every restaurant and we couldn’t fault a thing. The kindness and friendliness of the staff at Apsara really make this resort stand out. A special mention to Ann, Tee, Grace, Oilly, Yuda, Erba and Nathan who have all looked after us extremely well and ensured we have had a fabulous holiday. The housekeeping and ground staff work very hard at keeping the resort spotlessly clean. Highly recommended and we hope to be back again in the future! 🥰🫶🏼 Read less

Had a fantastic 13 night stay at the Apsara beach front resort as a family of four with two children aged ten and four years. The resort is beautifully clean and well presented with stunning views across the beach and surrounding areas. Although the location is a little out of town taxis to Khao lak city are reasonably priced and easy to use. The staff at the Apsara have been excellent with a special mention to the staff at breakfast and in the Karkinos beach bar. We have been met with warm smiles everyday and many of the staff took the time to learn our children's names and were so friendly and helpful. All in all a wonderful stay. Read less

This resort is a little out of the way, which suited us perfectly. It’s easy to get a taxi into Kao Lak. The reception staff arranged this for us. We upgraded on arrival to a villa with private pool & we were not disappointed. The villa,s, pool area, restaurants & communal areas are all immaculately clean. I used the laundry service once, & was amazed to get my items returned quickly. Room towels & pool towels are changed as required. The bathrobe was appreciated. There’s even a beach bag to borrow if needed. The food in all the restaurants is fantastic, with a wide variety to choose from. We all enjoyed the chicken with cashew especially & the wood fired pizza from Karakinos. The cocktails were tasty & the local beer is Chang, which we enjoyed. The hotel shops are handy. Our girls liked to buy crisps & chocolate there. The staff are all friendly & helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. We went on a few excursions while here, though enjoyed our days by the pool. The weather is changeable at this time of year. We have been very lucky. This is an amazing resort with the best staff & tasty food. We highly recommend it. Read less
