Motive Cottage Resort

“NIce cosy with heated pool”

Located along the main road, meet our requirements for 3N. Staff is responsive. Can get discount for food and drinks at Tony Lodge, where they have live band singing. Breakfast is ok as we only have it for 1 morning.

“A decent hotel”

The room was clean and nicely renovated with daily maid service, coffee and tea making facilities and good efficient air conditioning. The bathroom was a little dated but had a good warm shower and toilet. There was a small pool and a few sun beds but no parasols or protection from the sun. We had breakfast which was very basic. The staff cooked the eggs at 7 o’clock but they were not kept warm. Breakfast choice was limited to toast, cornflakes, fruit, eggs and fried rice every other day. The pool seemed to open late at night because at weekend it looked like some of the staffs teenagers were frolicking in the pool past 10 o’clock so it was quite noisy and hard to sleep. The price was good for this hotel and it was across the road from all the bars and restaurants. The beach would be a 20 minute walk away and there are many hotels nearer to the sea.

Spent a month at motive cottage. It's in what was for us a good location as we hired a motorbike And was handy for pretty much everywhere. A bit far from the beach (about 20 mins walk) but it is a short walk to the bars and restaurants. The hotel itself is a bit dated and although cleaners were changing towels etc I don't think much cleaning was done. Breakfast was truly awfully ,was OK for a couple of days then got very repetitive, had done my research beforehand on tp and lots of people saying great food bacon, curry soup ,thai noodles and so on but we saw none of this. If your thinking of staying here please do not waste your money on the breakfast option. Hotel staff were OK but seemed very disinterested, lucky to get a smile. About three weeks in to our holiday we decided we had had enough and booked into another hotel for a few days, was like a breath of fresh air, a holiday on holiday, but the difference in quality was obvious. I feel I may be being a little harsh as I have stayed in much worse hotels around the world but with a little improvement motive could be really very good. Good tip if your hiring a scooter, 5 star bike rental just over the road. Very friendly, good price and good bikes. A very professional outfit. If you,ve never been to khao lak before then your in for a treat, great beaches, great food and great people.
