Affordable Khao Lak and Phang Nga Hotels
Khao Lak is one of the easier beach areas in Phang Nga for travellers who want a quieter stay than Phuket, with long beaches, national parks, diving trips, snorkelling and access to the Similan and Surin Islands.

This page keeps things on the affordable side, with simple hotels, smaller resorts and good-value beach-area stays around Khao Lak, Bang Niang, Nang Thong, Khuk Khak and nearby Phang Nga areas. Hotel prices change a lot between seasons, weekends and holidays, so use the Agoda links to check current rates, photos and availability before booking.

I have listed a useful mix of affordable Khao Lak and Phang Nga hotels below. If you want to see more places, current prices and availability, use the Agoda search box below.
Tony Lodge
Tony Lodge is a simple, affordable hotel around the Bang Niang area of Khao Lak. It can suit travellers who want a practical base near restaurants, shops and local transport without paying beachfront resort prices.
This is more of a budget hotel than a beach resort, so check the current room photos and location before booking. If you mainly need somewhere easy and affordable, it may do the job.
Location: Bang Niang / Khuk Khak, Khao Lak
Motive Cottage Resort
Motive Cottage Resort is in the Bang Niang area and is a good one to check if you want a smaller, affordable resort-style stay close to local food, shops and the main Khao Lak road.
It is not a luxury beach resort, but it can work well as a convenient base for Khao Lak, diving trips, markets and getting around the area.
Location: Bang Niang, Khao Lak
Kokotel Khao Lak Lighthouse
Kokotel Khao Lak Lighthouse is the current name connected with the old Suwan Palm Resort listing. It is around Nang Thong Beach, one of the more convenient parts of Khao Lak for beach access, food and shops.
This is a useful one to check if you want to stay close to the beach without going straight into the higher-end resort range.
Location: Nang Thong Beach, Khao Lak
Andaburi Resort
Andaburi Resort is the cleaner current name to use instead of the old “The Andaburi Resort” wording. It is in the Nang Thong / Khuk Khak area and can suit travellers looking for a simple resort-style stay.
This is worth checking if you want a quieter Khao Lak base with pool-style facilities, but do not need a large beachfront resort.
Location: Nang Thong / Khuk Khak, Khao Lak
Ayara Villas Hotel
Ayara Villas Hotel is around Bang Niang Beach and is a good affordable-to-mid option if you want a more relaxed beach-area stay without going too high-end.
Bang Niang is one of the better Khao Lak areas for travellers who want food, markets and beach access nearby without the busier feel of Phuket.
Location: Bang Niang Beach, Khao Lak
Sudala Beach Resort
Sudala Beach Resort is in the Bang Niang Beach area and can be a useful choice if you want a beach-area resort without jumping into the high-end category.
It is a good one to check for a quieter Khao Lak stay with restaurants and local life still within reach.
Location: Bang Niang Beach, Khao Lak
Palm Galleria Resort
Palm Galleria Resort is in the Pakarang / Khuk Khak area, north of the busier Khao Lak centre. It can suit travellers who want a quieter base and do not need to be right in town every night.
This is better if you like a slower area and have transport, or are happy staying mainly around the resort and nearby beach areas.
Location: Pakarang / Khuk Khak, Khao Lak
Andamania Beach Resort, Khaolak
Andamania Beach Resort, Khaolak is the current name to use for the old Andamania Beach Resort listing. It is around Khuk Khak Beach, away from the busiest parts of Khao Lak.
This can be a good fit if you want a quieter beach stay and do not mind being a little more spread out from the main tourist centre.
Location: Khuk Khak Beach, Khao Lak
Khaolak Sunset Resort
Khaolak Sunset Resort is near Nang Thong / Khao Lak Beach and is worth checking if you want a quieter beachfront-style stay close to the original Khao Lak area.
This is one of the more useful affordable beach-area choices from the old page, especially if you prefer a calmer stay rather than being in the middle of Bang Niang.
Location: Nang Thong / Khao Lak Beach
Khaolak Bay Front Hotel
Khaolak Bay Front Hotel is another beach-area option near the southern end of Khao Lak. It can suit travellers who want a quieter stay with beach access and a more relaxed setting.
This is a good one to check if you want simple comfort rather than a large resort. Khao Lak does quiet fairly well, which is why people come here.
Location: Khao Lak Beach / Nang Thong Area
Khao Lak Palm Beach Resort
Khao Lak Palm Beach Resort is a beachfront-style resort near the southern Khao Lak beach area. It can fit the affordable-to-mid range depending on the season.
This is useful if you want a more traditional Khao Lak beach stay without heading straight to the larger high-end resorts further north.
Location: Khao Lak Beach / Nang Thong Area
Kuraburi Greenview Resort
Kuraburi Greenview Resort is not really central Khao Lak, but it can be useful for travellers heading further north toward Khura Buri, Surin Islands trips or quieter Phang Nga travel.
I would only keep this one if you want the page to cover wider Phang Nga as well as Khao Lak. If the page is meant to be strictly Khao Lak hotels, this is the one I would remove.
Location: Khura Buri, Phang Nga
