Setting
The Tubkaak sits directly on Tubkaek Beach, sheltered by the same 13-island archipelago (the Hong Islands) that shelters this stretch of coast from monsoon swells — which keeps the water calm for swimming most of the year. The resort backs onto Hang Nak Mountain, home to the Khao Ngon Nak hiking trail roughly a kilometre away.
Rooms
42 suites and villas in a genuinely boutique scale — noticeably smaller than most of its five-star neighbours on the same beach. Rooms carry a distinct signature touch: an outdoor, open-to-the-sky sunken bathtub in every room, alongside wood-finished interiors and private balconies with mountain or sea views.
Good to know
Genuinely quiet, even by Tubkaek standards — this is one of the smaller properties in the cluster of resorts here (alongside Amari Vogue and Phulay Bay). It suits travellers actively seeking low-key rather than those wanting resort scale and variety.
Dining and facilities
Two restaurants (Thai and Italian), a library bar, a full-service spa, and free kayak use along the beach. The pool is modestly scaled in keeping with the resort's boutique size.
Who it suits
Couples and honeymooners specifically wanting a small, quiet property with direct hiking access — see our Khao Ngon Nak guide for the nearby trail.
