Khao Sok Residence Resort
Compare prices
Khao Sok Residence Resort is a lodging option situated in Tambon Khlong Sok, placing guests within reach of Khao Sok National Park — one of southern Thailand's most celebrated natural landscapes, known for its ancient rainforest, limestone karsts, and Cheow Lan Lake. The resort's address in Amphoe Phanom, Surat Thani province, positions it as a base for travellers looking to explore the jungle rather than the beach resorts of nearby Khao Lak. The property operates a reception desk daily from 07:00 to 21:30, giving guests a reasonable window for check-in assistance, though those arriving late in the evening should plan accordingly. As a residence-style resort, it suits travellers seeking a quieter, more settled stay rather than a feature-heavy hotel experience. With a modest number of reviews on record, prospective guests are advised to research current conditions before booking, as feedback is limited and experiences appear to vary. Contacting the property directly is recommended to confirm room availability, current facilities, and transportation options, particularly as no website is listed. Those planning visits to Khao Sok National Park should note that the area is accessible year-round, though the dry season between November and April generally offers the most comfortable conditions for outdoor activities.
