Sofitel Magic Lagoon Khao Lak    319 rooms
While the ancient beauty of Khao Lak enchants its visitors, the region's best-loved five-star resort will make sure that their every comfort is met.  The Sofitel Magic Lagoon Resort & spa never fails to both charm and astound its guests.  The resort's most striking feature is of course its lagoon pool.  At 14,008 square metres, it is the biggest beachside pool in the world and can be accessed from all over the resort as it curves around the bars and restaurants tempting guests to dive in and cool off at every opportunity.  You don't even have to get out of the pool to enjoy a refreshing drink or a snack.  Simply swim-up to the nearest bar and place you order.
Built on 50 rai of land bordering a beach of soft welcoming sand, the resort employs an elegant combination of classical Thai architecture and the latest amenities to ensure a relaxing stay for all guests.  Low-rise buildings mean that the resort blends in with the surroundings, while the gardens and sound of the flowing water impart a deep sense of tranquility.
Like the architecture of the resort itself, the decor and furnishings of all 319 suites and rooms reflect the charm of bygone era. Traditional art, wooden furniture and the gentle colours of Thai silk combined with modern luxuries make your room a welcoming haven.
