KC Resort is the first accommodation you see on entering Haad Sai Khao, and one of the largest in the area. Primarily an upmarket resort focused on air-con bungalows, they have a wide variety of styles and prices. Unfortunately 2008 saw the removal of the last bamboo bungalow and the emergence of a cement behemoth in the same mould as Cookies Resort. When we passed through the building wasn't yet finished, but the management let us take a sneak peek at the master plans -- there will be 80 new rooms, a blend of deluxe and superior suites, set around a lavish almost Olympic sized pool. The architects mock up of the rooms looks very impressive, with plenty of glass and a distinct Asian twist with the decor. The location here is second to none. There's also very competent air-con bungalows in a pretty garden setting nestled along an extended length of beach to the north of the main hotel, punctuated by facilities such as massage under the palms and a restaurant with live singers performing at meal times to give it that true resort feel. The popular beach bar still exists, though for how long is unsure. Mat seating on the sand and atmospheric lighting usually brings in the late night crowd, though sometimes it doesn't get going until 1am. KC is building a convention room and lobby close to the main road in the hope of attracting more business guests during the low season. Al rooms have air-con, hot water, TV and minibar and include complementary breakfast. Be sure to shop online for a discounted rate.
