How was the booking process handled?: Very efficient.
Other comments about the hotel: A very special place which was the highlight of our holiday. Unspoilt beaches, a lush tropical location, friendly, relaxed and great value. If you want to escape everything for a few days and see what Khao Lak would have been like ten years ago this is the place.

How was the booking process handled?: Efficient as usual
Other comments about the hotel: A peaceful paradise! Quiet nice beach that stretches for miles. Perfect for a relaxing/romantic holiday!The hotel is very nice, good standard with comfortable well-designed villas in a wonderful garden/jungle setting. Can recommend the villa with an outdoor shower! TV channels were very few and boring (if you are jetlagged and cannot sleep at night there is nothing to watch).The hotel restaurant closes at ca 22.30 and the local restaurants in the surrounding are also closed at night. So do not expect much to do in the evening!Daytime you can book a snorkling trip and hotel provides a bike and a free daily charter to Kao Lak.The hotel staff is really friendly, despite communication problems at times, they are really helpful and genuinely nice.Breakfast and food overall is good.Try the hotel spa, situated in a beautiful calm outdoor setting.I can really recommend Haadson!

How was the booking process handled?: Helpful and efficient, would use ThailandHotels-24.com.com again.
Other comments about the hotel: Stayed at the Haadson resort for 6 nights over New Year. Lovely hotel for escaping it all, but not for those who want facilities included and nearby. Set by a beautiful beach mainly used by locals, it s a good opportunity to mix with real Thais in their own surroundings. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. No complaints.

How was the booking process handled?: Perfect. Everything was in order, the airport transfers were on time and comfortable. We were in good hands and will be sure to use this service for our next trip.
Other comments about the hotel: This is exactly what we wanted. The Haadson is small, quiet, and ideal for people wanting to get away, relax and enjoy the quieter side of beach life in the Khao Lak area. The staff are very friendly and efficient, the accommodation was comfortable and the food excellent. There is a nice pool, but the beach is meters away with a quite stretch of coast to enjoy. I would highly recommend the Haadson to anybody looking for a slightly less commercial getaway away of the larger cities. My wife and I spent our honeymoon here and were looked after very well. We will definitely be visiting again in the future.

How was the booking process handled?: Excellent.
Other comments about the hotel: We loved this resort and would stay there again. We stayed in the Coconut Rooms since villas weren t available and they were great. Staff was excellent although English is limited with wait staff. Pool area is great and included breakfast was very good. Other meals were reasonable too.

How was the booking process handled?: Always correct & prompt
Other comments about the hotel: We thoughroully enjoyed our time here, although it was the end of the high season we managed to have the resort to ourselves ( well 6 persons at any one time there) :-) The only feedback I can offer is that the command of English needs to be improved in the restaurant & front desk. Apart from that we were very satisfied with our stay and would strongly recommend this resort for a quiet & relaxing vacation.1.5hrs from Phuket Intl15 mins to Khao Lak center400 THB taxi to/from resort to Khao Lak

How was the booking process handled?: Smooth and quick
Other comments about the hotel: What a beautiful place! You can have Bangsak beach all for yourself, there are no other hotels nearby, only some locals visiting the beach during the weekends (which is nice!). Unfortunately the beach is not for snorkeling, but most of the other beaches have the same problem. The resort if very quiet and made for relaxing. Don t expect night life, the only thing you can do in the evenings is to choose the hotel restaurant (ok) or one of the local restaurants just outside the hotel, at the front of the beach (I do recommend, so tasty, so cheap). During the day there is a free shuttle to the centre of Khao Lak, where you can go and check the other turists (if you want) and do some quick shopping. Otherwise I do recommend renting a car, the traffic around Khao Lak area is not too bad, just go there and drive, you ll be ok!The resort rooms are very basic with nice contemporary style, hint of thai decoration. Airconditioning was very loud, but well, you need it, you get used to it. Our baby got a small flu from the aircon, but otherwise the place was very baby-friendly, we got a nice bed for her and mosquito-net when asked. And the hotel staff were very nice for us and the baby, all the time.So, the place is good for couples and families, but I would not go there alone or with girl-friends (no party!)!Breakfast was ok, served in a beatiful seaside terrace. The most beautiful thing for me was after all the GARDEN, it was very well kept and so nice. I do recommend this hotel for everybody who wants a quiet holiday, not big tourist crouds, peaceful nature and beautiful beach - with a small touch of local life.

How was the booking process handled?: Perfect
Other comments about the hotel: This was also very nice choice out from Khao Lak center (about 15 km). Very relaxed atmosphere, clean accomodations with various price levels. Very service oriented and friendly staff and excellent food...Thank you. You can book trips to Similan and Surin from here too.

How was the booking process handled?:
Other comments about the hotel: Lovely hotel. About 20 mins from Khao Lak town (300bht either way from the Hotel or 400bht if going from the town). We were after a relaxing holiday away from everything and got what we wanted and more. Not for those looking for a party place but beautifully serene with lovely staff. We will be back!

How was the booking process handled?: Great, after trying to book direct with other hotels in April but were told full as use unknown agents
Other comments about the hotel: If you want a lively hotel in the centre of the action the Haadson is not for you .However if you are looking for a quiet location, bungalow type accommodation, beautiful well kept and designed gardens and the most fantastic deserted beach I would recommend the Haadson.The staff were so friendly and helpful and put a lot of effort into the New Years Eve party (the staff singing Thai songs and dancing was great fun).The restaurant was not very good but then we never eat much in hotel restaurants.There were fantastic local seafood restaurants ,used by the Thais ,where we ate most lunches and evenings watching the sunsets.

How was the booking process handled?: Very good
Other comments about the hotel: I do not recommend Haadsons. Website is misleading. It s 90 mins from Phuket airport (not 60mins), and 25mins to Khao Lak centre (not 15mins). If you plan to do tours from here its expensive and a very early start. Food is very bland. We attempted dinner twice and then gave up. Service is also poor, and the staff speak very little english. We also did not get an important message from our accommodation in phuket, indicating that they needed to cancel room. We turned up and wasted half a day reorganising accommodtion. unfortunately we had to spend new years eve there too. Buffet was horrible, and entertainment consisted mainly of karaoke by the staff! Releasing the lanterns on the beach after the fireworks was nice, but its a shame the mess remained all over the beach the next morning.

How was the booking process handled?: Booking was completely problem free.
Other comments about the hotel: The haadson resort is beautiful, everything has been very well thought out. The staff were very attentive throughout our stay, even giving me flowers, cake and a present on my birthday! Its perfect if you just want to get away from it all as there is nothing near it. This is not the place to stay if you want nightlife!
