| UPDATE : 2 June 2010 | |||
Kanokrat Resort is a contemporary, Balinese-style resort located just a short distance away from the famous Amphawa Floating Market in Samut Songkhram province. The resort enjoys a tranquil setting alongside Klong Pheelork ('Pheelork Canal'), which connects it with Klong Amphawa, just a few kilometers downstream. There are two distinct areas to choose from when booking a stay at Kanokrat Resort. While you can enjoy a spectacular view of the canal from the courtyard at the front of the resort and from the dining area, all rooms in the main building boast floor-to-ceiling windows, providing a pleasant view of the surrounding gardens. All the rooms here also feature a balcony, featuring wooden flooring and seats, which combine well with the lush green surroundings. Cute Little Cottages The resort also includes three semi-detached wooden cottages, which each include an individual entrance and balcony area. The room areas feature a contemporary form of Balinese décor, which includes an interesting color combination of off white and a bold green color in this case. Two of the cottages feature a single bedroom, while the other four have twin beds. Some also have an outdoor bathroom area, featuring plain concrete, bricks and bamboo.
All Mod Cons All rooms include an air-conditioner, satellite television, a fridge, a shower system with hot and cold taps and Wi-Fi Internet access. All rooms are charged at the same rate and include breakfast. From Sunday through Thursday, you pay 950 baht (US$29), while the rate rises to 1,250 baht on a Friday and 1,500 baht on a Saturday. Groups Welcomed Kanokrat Resort is also able to accommodate corporate groups, boasting an air-conditioned meeting hall which can accommodate up to 80 participants.
