Khao Chaison Hot Spring — Attraction in Phatthalung Province

1hr drive from hatyai, the place looks newly renovated as of June 2023. Everything is really clean and nice. Ample parking, even with coach bus bays.

It's 40 baht per pax for entry for foreign tourists. 20 for local (June 2023). Common outdoor hot pool is quite small but sufficient.

Hot springs is quite hot. Would recommend bringing a hat and to visit when the sun is not so hot. We went at 10am on Saturday and got the place almost to ourselves. You do not need swim wear as the water is very shallow (knee or thigh deep at best). Makes for a great stop for elderly to soak their feet.

Be careful inside the pool as there are ledges that sink lower towards the middle of the pool.

There is also massage just beside the pool. Super cheap - 150baht per hr and you get a discount if you show the entry slip (110baht).

This was the worst massage I have ever gotten in my life though. Masseuse kept talking yo each other and when they do - they subconsciously stop massaging when they get distracted. The massage method was super painful and completely not relaxing. It makes you feel that you're a piece of meat they are kneading constantly. No consistency between left and right side of body, front or back. I suppose if you have extremely right knots that needs kneading out you might enjoy. Otherwise please skip even though it was super affordable. Will NOT recommend.

Check out the nearby Tham nam yen cool stream cave just 2 mjns away. The best hidden gem...

Very well-maintained hot springs,

During our visit there was a local fair next to the hostprings, and maybe that's why the pools were a little busy. Or perhaps it's a popular spot year round?

There are several shallow open pools, to soak your legs, or even take fully submerge yourself in the 42° water (the sign said 42°, my watch measured 44°) Private pools are for hire for a small fee, but when we arrived there was nobody at the ticket booth. We also didn't have to pay the 40B entrance that is normally charged to foreigners.

BTW, there are two caves above the hotsprings, we went there but can't really recommend it. They are nothing special. Instead head over to the 'Tham...

Lovely natural place situated in a limestone outcrop with plenty of wild life around ! Watch the MONKEY.S 20 - BAHT entrance fee for parking and enjoying whatever you like to do. The small senteral pool is pleasant warm but shallow! You can still sit in it or lay down to warm your body in the hot Thermal water ! A bit need off repairs ! The better option is to book a private room where you can soke your body for your likes!Come and enjoy and see...
