Rayavadee Resort
Krabi
OVERVIEW
In the heart of the Phranang Peninsular on the outskirts of the Krabi Marine National Park, you’ll find Rayavadee Resort; a remarkable hidden gem nestled amongst the verdant gardens and coconut groves. With sheers cliffs and lush jungles behind the property and the turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea to the front, this is picture postcard beauty at its finest.
Set on a sun-kissed limestone peninsula a stone’s through from the ocean, Rayavadee isn’t just any tropical hideaway, and as you enter the resort, it just keeps on getting better. With 26 acres of some of Thailand’s most beautiful grounds, an indulgent spa, charming pavilions dotted throughout the tropical gardens in the style of a traditional Thai village, three white sand beaches as well as a choice of four decadent eateries, Rayavadee Resort doesn’t just look like paradise from the outside. We love the gorgeous garden pavilions encircled by sand and the lagoon-style pool – it’s a great sweep of turquoise ringed by verdant gardens and has wonderful sea views.
But the true draw has to be its far-flung location; if you’re looking to drop off the face of the Earth for a relaxing honeymoon, this is the place for you. It’s only accessible by (private) speedboat and your Bond-style entrance sets the scene for the rest of your stay. Fantastically private, Rayavadee’s allure is in its exclusive, isolated location but you’ll never feel too remote as Krabi is just a short hop away.
