We had a wonderful stay at the Bliss Hotel! The breakfast is exceptionally good, and the accommodations are very comfortable. Ning and her colleagues are so attentive; we felt very well taken care of here. When our daughter fell ill, we received great support and couldn’t have been in a better place. The many monkeys on our balcony were another highlight ;) There is a lovely swimming spot in the river at a nearby hotel. However, it’s worth noting that there are small fish in the river that can bite quite a bit if you don’t keep moving.

Nothing really. It may be nice to have mosquito nets for the beds.

What’s not to love about The Bliss? From the moment we arrived, Ning took exceptional care of me and my parents. We were warmly welcomed with a refreshing homemade iced tea and personally escorted to our charming riverside lodge. The lodge was immaculately clean, incredibly spacious, and had the most delightful balcony overlooking the river—a perfect spot to relax and take in the view. The breakfast deserves special mention; it was truly unforgettable. Each morning, we could choose from a variety of options, and it was served alongside an assortment of fresh, delicious fruits. It was so good that I can’t stop raving about it to my friends and family! To make our experience even better, when we booked a shared van for our departure, The Bliss surprised us by upgrading it to a private transfer. We couldn’t believe our luck and were so grateful for their kindness and thoughtfulness. Ning herself is a gem. Her excellent English, warm hospitality, and fantastic sense of humor made our stay even more enjoyable. It’s rare to find someone so welcoming and attentive, especially in Thailand where language barriers can sometimes be a challenge. And as if all of this wasn’t enough, we even had the delightful company of monkeys in the afternoon, which added a magical touch to an already incredible experience. I can’t wait to come back—10 out of 10, without a doubt!

Nothing!

There was 6 of us and we booked the family suite and I was concerned it wouldn’t be spacious but I was so wrong, it’s huge and backs onto the river which is stunning to sit and watch the monkeys play around you. It was so peaceful and had everything you needed in the rooms right down to home made cookies which are delicious. The staff are wonderful and so kind and helpful, they make you feel so welcome. Breakfast was amazing, you order what you want the night before and it’s personally cooked for you, plus there is buffet options whilst you wait, delicious pancakes 🤤 It’a a lovely 5 minute walk to the start of the restaurants and village where you have plenty places to eat and drink. Good base to do tours as well and the hotel staff can help you with this if you have not already done so. Would highly recommend this beautiful place. 😍

Great place near the khao sok national park, the staff and service are the best. Surrounded by relaxing nature but also wild one... There are a lot of ants, of course, so it's better not to leave crumbs in the room. The monkeys are all around, and you shouldn't feed them. That way, they remain calm , but we got an early wake up from their noise playing at the porch and jumping on the roof 🤪 The breakfast is absolutely perfect, so delicious and well served, They made a tasty special dish for my gluten-free daughter 🩵🙏 We ordered some attractions directly from the hotel at a fair price. Nearby there is a main road with restaurants, massages etc. I really recommend this place🩵🙏🇹🇭

The bed is a little bit small, and the pillows were a little bit hard. There was a weird smell in the bathroom but then I've noticed that it was the banana leaves that was placed for decoration so i put them outside and it was all 👍

Amazing host! She remembers every guest and their breakfast preferences, making each morning feel like a restaurant experience. You pre-select your breakfast from a menu, and it’s served fresh the next day at a set table. This minimizes food waste and feels more special than a standard buffet. There is an additional buffet with pancakes, cookies, and more, but we found the breakfast menu is plenty to get you going for the day! The host was incredibly helpful, with excellent communication before our stay. She arranged a private taxi for us from Surat Thani airport and booked a full-day tour on Khao Sok Lake for us. One of the few air-conditioned options in Khao Sok with fully enclosed rooms, this place provided exactly the comfort we were looking for. The garden is beautifully kept, and you can expect a friendly visit from the local monkey family each morning! Highly recommend staying here.

The shower’s water pressure and temperature can be a bit low due to the electric heater, but it was manageable for our short stay. Loved everything else about the lodge!

The Bliss Boutique Hotel is amazing! The location is perfect, quiet, on the river side and in a beautiful surroundings but at a walking distance of the village. We stayed in the six persons accomodation which was fantastic with a beautiful covered veranda where you could sit quiet and watch the monkeys. The staff is amazing and the owner has build the accomodations and the company from the heart and you can feel that in every aspect. The breakfast is more than amazing with a lot of choice. And they are there to advise you what trips to book. I can only truly recommand this place if you are planning to stay in Kao Sok.

Very friendly and helpful staff, bungalows are down the road from the main Khao Sok village restaurants etc, just off the river. It was lovely and peaceful with so much wildlife - seeing all of the monkeys in the morning was an absolute highlight of our trip. Bungalow was large and modern and breakfast was amazing. They helped us arrange our overnight stay in the water bungalows ahead of our visit and were happy for us to leave our main luggage and rental car whilst we were gone. Currently share facilities with the Arts lodge just across which is helpful if you want to grab an easy dinner/drinks or just watching the wildlife by the river. Highly recommend!

Nothing - we had an issue with our plug in lamp which we spoke to them about in the morning and they were straight onto fixing. Nothing bad to say

The owner May and her family are an absolute delight, I cannot describe well enough how kind, caring and helpful May is. We travelled with young children and she helped us organise everything we needed and went above and beyond her call of duty advising and assisting us with all our needs. Without doubt our time in Khao Sok was so special because of this. We did 2 excursions during our time organised via the Bliss, one to the lake and the second a canoeing trip on a local river, both were fantastic and we made memories to last a lifetime. The breakfast really is as fabulous as the reviews say!!! There is a really good selection of sweet and savory options to suit both western and asian taste but OMG the cakes are just to die for and I definitely ate more than my fair share lol Book The Bliss without hesitation you will not be disappointed.

Having to say goodbye

• Super kind and friendly staff who organised a private transfer on for us at a super reasonable price! • Tea and coffee in the room with fridge and homemade delicious muesli cookies! • Gorgeous view of the river and can watch monkeys play from your balcony! • Not a far walk and all to town • The nicest breakfast in all of Thailand! The fresh banana bread, pancakes and fruit platters were such a treat! • Large clean rooms with a super comfy and soft bed! • Great Wifi Thank you to May, Ning and the whole team, we can’t wait to hopefully come back one day!!

• A few ants in the room but you’re in amongst all the gorgeous wildlife so didn’t bother us!

Located in beautiful jungle surroundings. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with homemade biscuits in room upon arrival. May, Ning and staff are super friendly, warm and accommodating. The hotel is a 5 minute walk away from the main village road with an abundance of restaurants and small convenience shops and a 5 minute ride a way from the Khao Sok National Park. The staff serve a delicious and most beautifully served breakfast we have ever had. May and Ning, thank you for an exceptional stay!!

Staying for such a short time. Water pressure in shower is low but understandable given the location.
