"We were extremely pleased with our stay at Ayara Villas! The room was super spacious for a family of four - huge king size bed, side bed (and a pull-out bed as well!) and we got a free baby crib to the room too. Small kitchen area in the room, good shower. Good black-out curtains. The staff were so nice and friendly, they placed our room near the fabulous children's play room - which was huge, lots of toys, climbing blocks, slide and chill-out sofas and hammocks for adults too :) Books for different aged kids, even some baby toys and baby play mat. Our room had pool access, which was great, as the water was perfect ankle deep for our small children (then continued to the main pool). Several different pool areas, few kids pools and a play/waterslide area for children. (Even older kids would enjoy this.) Restaurant located at the beach was great, breakfast was very versatile - with egg station and a wide hot food & salad buffet. In-house made pancakes, real bacon and even cheese (which is a rare find in hotel breakfasts in Asia) :) Spa & massage also at the beach, which could be added to the room bill. Small private beach, not so suitable for youngest children, but nice none the less. Bigger /longer beach a short walk away. Location on a calm street with a few local restaurants near by. Short taxi ride or abt 1km walk to "main street" with restaurants, shops etc. Hotel offers shuttle to town every night at 6pm (big local market open 4 days a week)."

"It's an amazing resort, so calm and nice, I absolutely loved it, great for families. "

"The resort is breathtaking! It was a beautiful elegant feel throughout. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had dinner and breakfast here and all the food was delicious. The bed was comfortable and will be a great place to come back to next time we're in Khao Lak!"

"It was such a beautiful hotel with friendly staff! The dining room is right by the beach! Such a beautiful place! We will definitely come back! "

"Stayed over Christmas & found the resort perfect for us (2 adults & 2 older kids) - really impressed with the layout & space of the modern two bedroom accommodation! Beautiful grounds & setting overlooking the beach with lots of restaurants located within walking distance."

"We had great time at the Grand Mercure. The hotel is conveniently located, close to nearby restaurants/supermarkets. I'd recommend it if you want to get away from the busier Khao Lak area. Overall we had a wonderful time."

"Lovely hotel with a very relaxing vibe. The room was very comfortable and spacious. We ate in all the hotel restaurants and every meal was delicious. Pam’s restaurant at the end of the road was also good. "

"Family of 5 staying in hotel rooms for 5n. Experienced Thailand travellers. Highly recommend this resort for big spacious rooms, cheap food at their restaurant. Need a motorbike though. Or be happy to pay 300 baht each way for 5km into local mini mart and pier. Beach is incredible. Pool super clean. A lot of Russian foreigners loading up (7plates plus) on breakfast buffet, this was the only let down to the holiday was the type of rude travellers. But the place and staff were amazing. Would definitely come again or to Paradis Villas which is 2 resorts closer to town is amazing for atmosphere and big Villa space. We did love the wild dogs who visited us on the beach"

"Lovely tropical feel - good breakfasts - large rooms with big bathrooms very nice beach area "
