Stayed here for 4 nights and it's easily one of the most beautiful places in Thailand. We trekked into the jungle to the waterfalls, tubed down a river and did the lake tour, which was wonderful. Would highly recommend the lake tour.
Khao Sok National Park only has floating villas within the park. ITS SPECTACULAR - stunning beauty, idyllic lake setting where you can swim, kayak - or do nothing in your villa.
Well off the beaten path but worth the effort to get there!
We booked a 2 day jungle trek with one night in tents. The jungle was nice, we saw monkeys, spiders, lizards, but because of the weather it was shorter than expected. 1,5 h to campsite, then 500 m through jungle, then 200 m to waterfall and finally 1,5 h back - and that was it for 2 days. The guide showed us some animals, but apart from that he didn't speak much. We had dinner cooked on fire in bamboo bowl, which was a nice experience :) In conclusion: nice trek, but way too short. I'm not sure how much longer it would be in better weather. I would appreciate the resort telling us that the trek will be shorter (booked at Khao Sok Treehouse Resort) - they told us only that rainy weather is not great for camping. Important to say that it rained only in the night.
Take a boat trip or even better a two-day boat trip a have yourself waked up by the Gibbons and a million of other animals.
This area is only an hour drive from the main city and have many resort to choose for jungle trip.
Waterfall and even a hot spring.
This is not our first visit so we bring many favorite drinks to enjoy it due most resort have only basic option.
