Accommodation and Amenities

Features of Khao Sok Green Mountain View Bungalows

  • Deluxe Room (king bed)
  • Deluxe Quadruple Room (two queen beds), for families

Dining at the Thai Restaurant

Menu highlights and the dining experience, according to guests: home-cooked Thai food made with fresh ingredients, spring rolls one family called the best of their Thailand trip, pineapple fried rice, and smoothies. The restaurant is spacious and also sells basics like water and mosquito spray.

Authentic Thai cuisine offerings include southern Thai staples, and vegan dishes are cooked on request. Packed lunches can be arranged for tour days. Most guests found prices affordable; one thought them a bit high given the location. Dining hours and reservation details aren't published, and one listing says room rates don't include breakfast, so ask at check-in what's served when.

Exploring Khao Sok National Park

Tour Options from the Bungalows

Types of tours available through the Green Mountain View desk: Khao Sok National Park day tours, Cheow Lan Lake day and overnight trips, canoeing, hiking and guided wildlife walks. Guests say tour buses pick up right at the property.

The booking process for tours: ask at reception; staff arrange tours from local operators and adjust around your plans (reviewers describe them as flexible). One guest called the tours "convenient and well valued". Confirm the price, pickup time and whether park fees (฿300 + ฿40 for the lake) are included before paying.

Highlights of Khao Sok National Park worth booking from here: the Cheow Lan Lake overnight on a raft house, a guided walk on the Ton Kloi trail, a night safari, and river canoeing. Our lake tour and overnight tour guides explain the options.

Nearby Attractions to Visit

Top attractions within the park, reachable in minutes: the park headquarters and Ton Kloi trail (about 5 minutes by car, 20 on foot), and the Sok River, about 10 minutes' walk from the bungalows.

  • Wat Sok Tham Phanthurat: a Buddhist temple about 3.5 km away, a quiet cultural stop.
  • Mae Yai Waterfall: about 4.8 km away, a 30 m single-drop fall off Highway 401 near the San Yang Roi viewpoint; best in the rainy season, when it has water.
  • Khao Sok Elephant Sanctuary: about 10 minutes' drive.
  • Our Jungle House area on the river: about 6 km.

Wildlife comes to you as well: guests report birds, several kinds of squirrel and other animals around the bungalows, and one was told elephants had walked through some time ago.

Activities and Adventures

Outdoor Activities Available

Canoeing experiences on local rivers are offered through the property: guided canoe trips on the Sok River, slow and quiet, good for kingfishers, macaques and the odd snake on a branch. Tubing, when the river is high enough, costs ฿300–500 elsewhere in the village.

Visiting the Khao Sok Elephant Sanctuary is the most asked-about add-on. The sanctuary describes itself as a retirement home for former trekking and logging elephants; it doesn't allow bathing ("bathing stresses the elephants out"), and visitors feed, walk with and prepare food for the elephants instead. It lists a half-day programme at ฿2,100 (starts 08:30 or 13:00, vegetarian lunch) and a 1.5-hour visit at ฿1,200. Read our elephant experience checklist before booking any camp.

Other adventure activities offered nearby: hiking, night safaris, Cheow Lan Lake trips, and car rental for independent day trips to viewpoints and waterfalls.

Travel and Logistics

Getting to Khao Sok Green Mountain View Bungalows

Travel options from Surat Thani: Surat Thani airport is about 95 km (59 miles) away. The property offers a paid airport shuttle; alternatively take the ฿400 airport minivan to Khao Sok (arrive before 16:15) or a taxi (about ฿1,900 to the village), then a short transfer. From Surat Thani town, buses and minivans take about 2.5 hours to the Khao Sok junction on Highway 401.

Transportation services available once you're there: free shuttles to the village and back several times a day, free parking if you drive, and car rental. Tips for a smooth journey: send your arrival time in advance and ask whether they can collect you from the village or the bus stop; bring insect repellent; and don't plan a 20-minute walk with luggage after dark.

Booking Your Stay and Tours

How to book accommodations: through Booking.com, Agoda, Skyscanner-listed partners or the property's own contacts (Instagram: greenmountain109). Rates start around US$14–15 per night on listing sites, higher for deluxe bungalows and in high season.

Tour booking assistance happens at reception once you arrive, or by message before. Cancellation and refund policies depend on the rate and platform you book through; free-cancellation rates usually cost a little more, so read the terms on your confirmation. For tours, confirm the operator's cancellation terms separately.
