Review Body: A fabulous back to nature place in the middle of the jungle. Exactly what we were looking for as part of our Thailand family holiday. It’s the simplicity of this place that makes it stand out, alongside an ethical and environmentally aware approach to running a hotel. Staff just superb, food incredible (you must try the jungle dinner experience), and access to the local activities so easy. We spent time with the local elephant feeding and bathing her, a long tailed boat trip across the lake including a very hot hike over the mountain to the historic caves. WiFi at the restaurant only is a good reminder to put the phone down for a while and reflect in nature. Finally the views from the main restaurant area across the mountains. I spent an hour this morning drinking coffee, watching the birds, and soaking it all up. Perfect.

Review Body: Cannot recommend this place enough - it’s in a beautiful setting, with lovely rooms, great food and plenty of wildlife watching from your own balcony! The rooms are clean and comfortable and breakfast is served with a stunning jungle view (recommend the southern style pad Thai, massaman and pork congee) The highlight however really is the wonderful staff. I was unwell (started before I arrived) and they were so sweet, bringing me homemade ginger, honey & lemon tea, fresh fruit and specially made soups and checking on us daily. Aside from this they were very informative, friendly and helpful. I really can’t praise them enough!

Review Body: Our time at Anurak Lodge was absolutely fantastic! We enjoyed amazing tours like the bike tour, jungle dinner, and bamboo rafting. From our window, we spotted so much wildlife—it felt like being in the heart of nature. The view from the restaurant was breathtaking too. Anurak Lodge is definitely the place to stay in Khao Sok if you want to be surrounded by nature's beauty. Highly recommend it!

Review Body: The option of having a private transfer to/from the lodge was excellent and made the trip much easier. All the activities were well considered and the day trip to the lake was fantastic! As a solo traveller, I would say that it’s not super ‘inclusive’ (I was seated at the end of the dining room with my back to the rest of the guests, making it hard to integrate and left me feeling a little isolated).
