The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani
Sat amid a luscious forested headland and flowing onto the dazzling sands of Nang Thong Beach, The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani is your tranquil and secluded escape just minutes from the town’s main shopping strip and an hour from vibrant Phuket. You need stray no further than the resort, as each wing is carefully crafted to cater to your need for rest, rejuvenation or play, so you can discover everything this Luxury Escapes favourite has to offer, including The Sands Luxury Club.
Unwind across two pools, satiate any craving at your choice of three restaurants – including The Floating Market, overlooking the glistening lagoon – and sip drinks at four bars, all offering unique water vistas. Plus, there are distinct adults-only pool and garden areas, the Sands Castle kids’ club and the pavilions of The Spa, which will embrace you with warm sea breezes and the scent of exotic flowers.
This tropical paradise is situated mere metres from the beachfront in Khao Lak, just a short distance from the village’s charming shopping and eating strip. The Sands Khao Lak by Katathani is approximately a one-hour drive from Phuket International Airport (HKT). A convenient one-way airport pick-up is included in your package. Please contact the resort to arrange.
