Phuket weather 18 June 2013

During last night and all day a very strong wind that blown almost all clouds from sky and kept rain away. This is typical for June, then we should see less wind and rain during July.

During this week the weather should be better starting from 23 June however isn't easy to make forecast and so isn't easy trust them, today should have been a day full of rain, but he wasn't and just few drops in the evening.

Just at sunset the wind slowed down so clouds piled again on Phuket hills.
We will see tomorrow morning what will be next day.

Khao Lak Countryside Resort and Spa Inspection Report

We went to visit the Khao Lak Countryside Resort and Spa at end of March 2013, to see if the resort could be part of our selection for accommodation in Khao Lak for our packages.

Firstly it  was good to see that despite the name the resort is just three minutes walking to Khao Lak Beach. Probably the owner gave this name as the resort is built in a beautiful garden with high trees and a huge garden divides the rooms making it perfect for privacy and giving and overall atmosphere of peace and relaxation.

Soon you will find yourself comfortable here with an authentic Thai atmosphere and nice staff ready to help and always smiling, simple rooms with a lot of space and great privacy.
The Khao Lak Countryside Resort is located in Soi Nangthong in Khao Lak , that is the road that goes to the main beach, just before the Khao Lak Sea view Resort.

The garden - bungalows are built around it

We stayed in a Garden Villa with balcony and Bali style shower, a lot of space so the third bed could fit in the room and still leave space to walk and enjoy the balcony. The room has all amenities and also now the resort offers unlimited free wi-fi. Nice Toilet with the open air (Bali style) shower. Easy to get to the pool and the restaurant. Good furniture and bedding,, the third bed is a folding kind and on that the mattress wasn't the best. The toilet looks a bit empty.

Garden villa - Bali style shower

Overall the resort is very quiet and clean, surely a big tropical garden need a lot of maintenance but every thing was in order, the pool is nice and big, the only negative is that there was a lot of chlorine in the water, so after a while the eyes began to burn.

The pool

Nice breakfast, buffet style, served at the open air restaurant where there was a nice family atmosphere with regular customers saying hello to staff.

Open air restaurant

Everything was positive so we decided to add the resort and offer packages to our customers that like to have a simple and authentic Thai style resort just few meters away from the beautiful Khao Lak Beach.

Phuket weather 17 June 2013

Finally after more than a week raining we had a nice sunny morning and conditions stayed at this all day, apart some isolated shower.

And the Go Kart speedway was already full of pilots racing to see who will be the best. As the beach is still "out of service", to make the sky clouds free need a strong wind and that happened last night, as result we have big waves and bad sea conditions. This should blow for a couple of days then we should have few days we cover sky but only light rain.

Phuket weather 15 and 16 June 2013

This week end still rain and thunderstorms, the sky was all day full of clouds on Saturday, While Sunday morning a shy sun managed to pass through giving few hours of good weather. And many people where soon on the beach to enjoy it.

However remember that red flags this time the year means danger to swim, just enjoy to play with the big waves that tide and wind make smashing to the shore.

Phuket weather 14 June 2013

The picture gives the idea more then many words, forecast say another three days at least, then wind should get stronger and blow the clouds away.

The rivers and streams are also growing can compare with same picture taken just ten days ago,


For better conditions then alternative is the Gulf of Thailand where Koh Samui, Koh Pangan and Koh Tao are located that offer only bit of rain, can get from Phuket to Samui or Koh Tao just in one day. The picture here below has been taken in Ang Thong National park on 8 June 2013.  At the moment Samui sky is also covered but sea is calm and doesn't rain.
