Front desk is open 24/7. The hotel is implementing the next phase of its renovation project. This improvement program will include refurbishment of guest rooms in Building A and the Lagoon Pool. As a result of this work, affected areas include Buildings A and B, the Ariake, Portofino, Wangwarin, Pakarang, and Latest Recipe restaurants, and the outdoor activities in the Chaba Wing, all of which will be closed. The conference center will operate with limited hours, and the Karon Ballroom is expected to be available for evening events during the renovation. The hotel is nearing completion of the renovation project, which is expected to be completed by the end of November 2025. We anticipate that the affected pool and restaurants will reopen by mid-November, and guest rooms will reopen by the end of November 2025. Operation of the two pools, beach restaurant, Le Spa, and Le Fitness & Kids Club will continue. During this period, Similan Lounge, Tonson Restaurant & Bar, Beach BBQ, La Fiamma, and the beachfront dining areas will remain open to guests. Guest rooms in Buildings C and D, the Kids' Family Club, Le Spa, Mali Lawn, and other public areas will continue to operate as usual, including the tennis and squash courts, ensuring a comfortable and relaxing stay for guests throughout the renovation process. **Know Before You Go** Children starting 12 years old are considered adults.
