Luxury Holidays At Pimalai Resort & Spa

The word Pimalai conveys a sense of peace and serenity, roughly translating to “a little patch of heaven” in ancient Sanskrit, and as you arrive at this Koh Lanta resort, it’s immediately clear that the name captures the essence of the experience. Set amidst 100 acres of lush greenery, fronting 900 metres of picture-perfect beach, and close to the Lanta Marine National Park, it’s an island hideaway that rekindles your love of nature.

Beyond its tranquil setting, Pimalai offers a wealth of amenities and activities designed to enrich your stay – two swimming areas, a sports centre, and a spa cater to relaxation and recreation alike, while island excursions, mangrove tours, and scuba diving are just a few of the adventures that await. Expect eclectic culinary experiences and refreshing libations at the resort’s six restaurants and bars, and luxuriate in refined accommodations ranging from chic garden rooms to stylish beachside suites and decadent villas.

The hour-long speedboat journey to the resort from Krabi reveals breathtaking views of Thailand’s smaller islands, ushering you into this off-the-beaten-track paradise, quietly celebrated as one of Koh Lanta's best-kept secrets.

Hotel Experiences

Given the splendour of its shoreline, it’s only natural that the sand and sea provide endless opportunities for enjoyment at the resort. Stop by the beach hut to organise aquatic adventures, choosing between kayaks, paddle boards or sailboats to explore, or join in the fun of football or volleyball on the sand. Speedboat tours tempt you to uncover the wonders of the Mu Koh Lanta National Marine Parks, while more traditional vessels transport you into the magic of the mangroves. Discover the secrets of Thai cuisine in a hands-on cookery class or focus on your fitness – the resort’s sports centre is a paradise for all kinds of active pursuits, offering tennis, pickleball, badminton, and basketball as well as a scenic running track. Young guests will be happily entertained at the kids’ corner, where a fun-packed programme of activities has been crafted for children aged four to ten. Meanwhile, parents can slip away to indulge in restorative treatments at the award-winning spa.

Climate

Krabi’s tropical monsoon climate means it’s warm year round. The two hottest periods fall between April/ May and September/October (also the wettest time) making the period from November to March probably the best time to visit when it’s not so humid and there are cooling breezes to be enjoyed.

Temples

Wat Tham Sua (Tiger Cave Temple) is one of southern Thailand's most famous temples. Set in a beautiful forest, there are two parts to visit - the Khiriwong Valley nature trail, with its maze of caves and the main Tiger Cave and bell tower. Climb the 1,237 steps, to the top of the mountain but beware, the climb is strenuous and should not be taken lightly, however the summit offers breathless views of the province and a wonderful statue of Buddha.

Temples
Scuba Diving

The Andaman Sea boasts some of the best diving sites in the world and the best diving in Thailand by far. Depths can vary from 4 to 20m and visibility can be up to 15m. The lovely Phi Phi islands are a 45-minute speedboat jaunt or a 90-minute ferryboat ride from Krabi Town – paradise perfected, these picture postcard islands are world-famous amongst scuba divers.

Scuba Diving
Wildlife

Krabi’s pristine Mangrove forest is home to an astonishing variety of birds, including species such as Gurney’s Pittas, Brown-winged Kingfishers, Flame backs, Pacific Reef Eagles and Dollarbirds.

Wildlife
National Marine Park

Considered to be amongst the most beautiful in Krabi province, the four Hong Islands, belonging to the National Marine Park, are easily accessible from Ao Nang. The main island, Koh Hong, uninhabited, except for birds, white-faced gibbons and giant monitor lizards, features a large lagoon where a rather unique occurrence takes place at low tide when the diminishing waters of the chamber or ‘hong’ to which its Thai name refers, change colour from a deep emerald green to a clear turquoise.
