Bottom Line

The Briza Beach Resort is a four-pearl, family-friendly resort on Lam Kaen Beach in the center of Khaolak. The 57 guest rooms are modern and stylish with natural light and neutral decor and include balconies/terraces, minibars, and direct pool access in some. Two restaurants serve international and Asian-inspired cuisine -- including free buffet breakfasts. There's also a lounge, and two bars -- one on the beach and one poolside. The main swimming pool features a cornered-off kids area and there's a kids' playroom. Beachside massage treatments are available in the small outdoor spa.

The Briza Beach Resort Khao Lak

Scene

Typical Thai resort with modern, nature-inspired decor

The Briza Beach Resort has Thai accents and modern decor. The outdoor areas have a tropical feel with lush green lawns, scattered palm trees, and wooden pathways. Interiors include large open spaces with a focus on natural light and nature-inspired decor. Traditional Thai elements are found throughout the property in the form of religious-themed animal statues and carved-wooden wall details. There's a grand entranceway that leads into an open-air lobby set with beach-style furniture and patterned-tiled flooring. The restaurants, lounge, and bars all offer a relaxed atmosphere. The Chomtara Lobby Lounge has beautiful sea views and the Maya Cafe is a nice poolside snack spot. For guests with early or late flights, the signature hospitality lounge is equipped with showers, relaxation areas, and entertainment and exercise facilities. This hotel is particularly popular among couples, though it also attracts families because of the available kids' facilities.
