Win a Trip to Khao Lak, Thailand

Khao Lak sits a world away from Phuket's crowds, just under an hour up the Andaman coast, with a long stretch of white sand backed by national park rather than nightlife strips, and the departure point for day trips to the Similan Islands' clear water and coral reefs. The Haven Khao Lak occupies a beachfront position on Khuk Khak beach, an adults-focused resort built around a saltwater lagoon pool and tropical gardens rather than crowds.

Check into an Oceanfront Jacuzzi Villa and let seven nights of Khao Lak's slower pace take over. Daily buffet breakfast at Sundial Restaurant starts the day, with a two-course lunch or dinner at Vongole Restaurant covering the evening meal, and a daily free-flow cocktail hour at Angel Wing Bar easing into the evening. Four 60-minute massages per package at Aqua Spa are spread across the stay, and a complimentary shuttle on market days makes it simple to see beyond the resort gates. One resort activity per stay, a choice between Thai boxing, stretching, paddleboarding, kayaking or a cocktail-making class, adds a proper change of pace partway through.

With a 2pm late checkout subject to availability and the property's saltwater lagoon pool, among the largest in Thailand, at the centre of it all, seven nights at The Haven Khao Lak deliver a quieter, adults-focused alternative to Phuket, built around one of the region's most understated beaches.
