Pimalai Resort & Spa
The exclusive Pimalai Resort & Spa welcomes you fantastically situated in an untouched bay in the south of the island Koh Lanta Yai. The airport of the Thai province Krabi is about 70 km away from the boat pier. From there a following crossing by speedboat to the resort takes about 50 minutes (total duration about 2 hours).
The resort with its 121 accommodation units is divided into two sections, each with a swimming pool. The terraced rooms and villas blend harmoniously into the hilly landscape of Koh Lantas. In the lower part are the rooms, suites and beach villas, all in modern Thai design with tropical wood and fine fabrics. In the upper part are the pool villas. Due to their hillside location (60m above sea level) they offer a spectacular panoramic view of the bay and the blue waters of the Andaman Sea. All room categories are facing the west side, so that you can dream away during unforgettable sunsets.
Directly in front of the resort there is a 900m long and gently sloping sandy beach, from which numerous non-motorized water sports activities start. Perfect for snorkeling and diving (PADI diving courses) is the colorful underwater world of surrounding islands, which are characterized by their seclusion and paradisiacal beauty. In addition, the hotel, which has been awarded the "Green Globe", offers mountain bike and trekking excursions to the nearby National Park.
Culinary highlights can then be enjoyed in the three excellent restaurants. The "Rak Talay Beach Bar & Restaurant" is located directly on the beach and serves grilled specialities and seafood. Creative fusion menus, prepared in a show kitchen and with excellent wines, can be found in "The Seven Seas" open-air restaurant with great views. The "Spice'N Rice" offers traditional Thai specialties, which can be cooked by yourself at the offered Thai cooking classes. In addition, guests have the possibility to get selected dishes served in their own villa or enjoy a romantic dinner on the beach.
Those seeking relaxation can not only enjoy a wide range of massages and beneficial treatments in the "Pimalai Spa", but also the dreamlike exotic nature. The spa area of the luxury resort is located in the middle of the Thai jungle.
All in all, the member of the "Small Luxury Hotels of the World" impresses with its excellent and cordial service and its traditional Thai atmosphere, paired with modern, exclusive interior and the original tropical environment. Here you will find your personal, idyllic retreat that will make your holiday dreams come true.
