Discover Cheow Lan Utopia, a private island experience on Cheow Lan Lake featuring lakeside tent accommodation, kayaking, sunset views, jungle scenery, and immersive overnight adventures in Khao Sok National Park.


Most travelers visiting Cheow Lan Lake choose floating bungalows or crowded day tours. But hidden deep within the emerald waters and towering limestone mountains of Khao Sok National Park lies a completely different experience — a private island escape designed for travelers seeking silence, nature, adventure, and meaningful connection.

Welcome to Cheow Lan Utopia.


This is not a typical camping trip. It is an immersive private island journey where guests stay in comfortable lakeside tents beneath the stars, travel by private longtail boat, explore hidden corners of the lake, kayak through crystal-clear water, and experience the rainforest at a slower and more unforgettable pace.


Crystal-clear water, hidden shorelines, and peaceful kayaking routes create a slower, more immersive way to experience the untouched beauty of Cheow Lan Lake.
