Khao Sok National Park was dedicated in December 1980, and shortly thereafter dammed in 1982 creating the largest freshwater lake in Thailand, known as Cheow Larn Lake. The area was ultimately saved due to a pandemic that wiped out the local population, giving it the name “Khao Sop” - Corpse Mountain. It then witnessed guerrilla warfare, providing an ideal location for natural protection, which ultimately discouraged logging and hunting industries from taking form. Today it exists as an adventure playground with cave excursions, boat rides, and floating bungalow rentals.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner served; local cuisine

"This was an absolutely great find. After traveling through Thailand for about three weeks and experiencing all kinds of different hotels, this was like stumbling into an oasis. The property was clean, the room was large and modern, and it had a balcony with an great view to boot. The woman at the front desk went above and beyond. She helped us set up a private boat tour of the lake, as well as arranging taxis for us throughout our stay. Would 100% stay here again."

"La località è molto bella, così come la lunga spiaggia privata. Il ristorante è discreto e il personale gentile. Grandi e pulite le camere, ma... Mancano i piccoli particolari che un occidentale (e clienti che ho visto lo erano tutti) si aspetterebbe: una luce per leggere a letto, comodini, cose così... Comunque si sta bene, nella gran tranquillità."

Panvaree The Greenery

10/10 Excellent

"What am amazing place! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Panvaree the Greenery and what a stunning setting to wake up to! From start to finish, the experience was well organised and essy. From checking inat thw pier, we were met by our guide who escorted us by longtail boat to the bungalows. The guide was knowledgeable about the area and offered interesting information and pointed out wildlife. The bungalows were beautiful, the rooms very clean and all of the staff were friendly and attentive. We enjoyed all 3 meals, 2 were set menus and buffet breakfast. All the food was absolutely delicious and flavoursome. In the afternoon, we swam in the lake and used the kayaks to explore. We did 2 boat rides, one at sunset and one at dawn and they were both incredible, allowing us to see different sights and sounds of the national park. Overall, one of my favourite places that ive ever stayed and I didn't want to leave!"

Magical Mountain View Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was a very beautiful resort, very quiet, and stunning veiws of the mountains, if you just want relaxing is very ideal. But it is in the middle of nowhere so very hard to go anywhere if you dont have transport. They do have a free shuttle into the village, but if you want to come back you only have less than a hour to look around otherwise you have to hunt round for a taxi."
