All the rooms at Nam Hra Thara Homestay have air conditioning. The accommodation offers studios, double and queen rooms, family rooms, a bungalow and a superior family room, several of them with a mountain view. Guests can step out into the garden, which is planted with greenery and flowers.

Bathrooms are private in some rooms and shared in others, and the Family Room with Bath has a shared bathroom. Several rooms come with a flat-screen TV, an electric kettle and a hair dryer, while others have satellite channels and a fan, and the family rooms can sleep up to four guests.

Free parking is available, and free WiFi is available in all rooms and public areas.

For activities there are billiards, table tennis, hiking, bicycles and non-motorised water sports, and tours and car hire can be arranged. Hiking and bicycles make it easy to explore the surrounding villages. For meals, guests have BBQ facilities and a shared kitchen, and food delivery is offered. English and Thai are spoken.

Khuan Kalong is a rural district of Satun province in southern Thailand, and the homestay sits among small villages and hamlets rather than in a busy town. The surroundings are quiet, with houses, gardens and village roads, so the pace here is slow, and the homestay is a calm base for anyone who wants to spend time outdoors rather than in town.

The nearest places are the hamlet of Ban Nam Ra, 2.3 km away, and the village of Ban Thung Nui, 3.1 km away, with Ban Khai Ruam Mit, 4.4 km away, and the Hidayatuddeneyah mosque, 5.3 km away, nearby. Hat Yai International Airport in neighbouring Songkhla province is the main airport for the area, and the homestay is reached by road from there.

A day out could combine the homestay's hiking trails with a boat trip from the Satun coast to the islands of Tarutao National Park, which lie offshore. In the rainy months the sea can be rough and boats may not run, so the trip depends on the season.
