JW Marriott Khao Lak Invites Travellers to Rediscover Thailand’s Best Kept Secret with New Return to Paradise Full-Board Experience

Singapore (28 January, 2026) – Just one hour north of Phuket lies a quiet, soulful side of Thailand – where golden beaches stretch uninterrupted, lush tropical gardens thrive, and time slows down to a meaningful rhythm. JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort & Spa invites travellers to rediscover this hidden coastal haven with Return to Paradise, a thoughtfully curated new full-board escape designed for families and couples seeking connection, calm, and nature-led luxury.

Often described as Thailand’s best-kept secret, Khao Lak offers the beauty of the Andaman coast without the crowds. Set along a serene beachfront and surrounded by lagoons, gardens and rainforest, JW Marriott Khao Lak is a destination where activities rooted in nature take centre stage, from sunrise rituals to golden-hour gatherings by the sea.

Effortless Living, Intentionally Curated

Designed to eliminate friction from holiday planning, Return to Paradise blends ease of mind, indulgence and intentional living into one seamless stay. Guests enjoy full-board dining, wellness moments, sunset drinks and family-friendly privileges – all framed by nature and JW Marriott’s signature approach to mindful hospitality.

Offer highlights include:

• Unhurried mornings beginning with a generous buffet breakfast, enjoyed together by two adults and two children under four
• Effortless days anchored by full-board dining, from a relaxed one-course lunch to an indulgent three-course dinner, allowing guests to savour every moment without planning ahead
• A one-time 45-minute Quan Spa treatment per adult (up to two adults), offering a restorative pause to reconnect mind, body and spirit
• Daily sunset soirées with two hours of complimentary free-flow drinks from 4pm to 6pm, enjoyed against golden-hour views at the Infinity Pool and Aquamarine Pool Bar
• Thoughtful family privileges, with children under four staying and dining with compliments
• A minimum three-night stay, designed to encourage a slower pace and deeper sense of escape

The result is a premium escape where guests can fully switch off - spending less time planning and more time reconnecting.

A Nature-Immersed Destination for Mindful Moments

Beyond the offer, JW Marriott Khao Lak distinguishes itself through experience-led storytelling that reflects its philosophy of togetherness, wellness and connection to nature.

JW Garden & Daily Garden Tours
At the heart of the resort lies the resort’s 27-acre JW Garden, a full working farm and a living expression of Sustainable Organic Produce, Education and Conservation, and Holistic Wellbeing. Through daily guided tours, guests are invited to explore the garden’s herbs, produce and edible plants, learning how they are woven into the resort’s farm-to-table dining philosophy. The experience offers a grounding counterpoint to indulgent meals and spa rituals, inviting guests to slow down and engage their senses.

Surf Sessions – Be Together
Surfing at JW Marriott Khao Lak is not about performance, but shared joy. Complimentary surf sessions held in the resort’s pool introduce guests aged 12 and above to the fundamentals of balance and movement in a relaxed, supportive environment. Designed for beginners and first-timers alike, the experience encourages families and friends to learn, laugh and grow together, reinforcing the spirit of Return to Paradise.

Family by JW Club
Inspired by the coastal spirit of Southern Thailand, Family by JW Club is a kids club conceived as a place of imagination, learning and connection. Designed as a whimsical seaside village using natural materials and soft tropical tones, the space integrates JW Garden-inspired discovery corners where children engage with plants, herbs and nature through hands-on play. Activities range from simple Thai-style cooking to garden-based exploration, encouraging curiosity, creativity and care for the environment.

More than a kids club, Family by JW is where young guests create meaningful holiday memories which are deeply connected to the destination.

Thailand’s Best Kept Secret - Now Closer Than Ever

With its rare blend of accessibility and seclusion, JW Marriott Khao Lak offers a compelling alternative to Thailand’s busier resort destinations. Located just one hour’s drive from Phuket International Airport, it is perfectly positioned for travellers seeking a quieter, nature-immersed escape without the need for long transfers.

Return to Paradise is an invitation to rediscover travel at a gentler pace – where days unfold with purpose, experiences are shared, and luxury is felt in moments of presence rather than excess.
