Location & what to see
500 Rai Floating Resort stands on Chiew Larn Lake, inside Khao Sok National Park in Ban Ta Khun, in Surat Thani province in southern Thailand. The setting is quiet, with the lake and the forested hills around it as the main draw, and the resort is reached by long-tail boat from Chiew Larn pier, so the last part of the journey happens on the water. The surrounding landscape is mostly forest, so the resort is set in nature rather than in the town.
Surat Thani Airport, 56.8 km away, is the nearer of the two airports in the area. Khao Sok National Park is 9.4 km off, Cheow Lan Lake is 19.6 km away and the Wing Hin Waterfall lies 21.3 km from the resort, so a day in the park or on the lake is easy to plan from here.
Canoeing, boat excursions and the hiking trails are the natural way to spend a day at the resort, with the forest and the water both close at hand. Guests who want to see more of the national park can plan a day trip that starts with the long-tail boat from Chiew Larn pier. After a day on the trails, the afternoon can be spent by the water, since the resort stands on the lake itself.
What guests say
Travellers rate the location most highly (9.3), followed by the service (8.9) and the cleanliness (8.7). These three areas are the resort's strongest points for guests.
