From the moment the private plane touches down in a clearing opposite the resort, Soneva Kiri feels like a tropical, hidden retreat, blending into its surroundings. Soneva Kiri’s 29 oversized pool villas are set along a sandy beachfront or on a hillside with outstanding views out to sea. The spacious and simple, yet sophisticated villas all blend perfectly with the beautiful, rustic environment.
Dining at Soneva Kiri is an integral ingredient in the whole experience of your stay at this beautiful property and includes menus created by a Three Michelin Star chef and authentic Thai cuisine. Whether it is a romantic meal for two, an unforgettable treetop dining experience or a private cooking class with a master chef, you can be sure that the settings will be as memorable and exceptional as the food itself.
Central to the Soneva experience are the resort hosts, and each Villa comes with a personal Mr or Ms Friday who provide the very best anticipative service in typical Thai tradition. They take enormous pleasure from making each visit a memorable one and will do everything they can to ensure that you leave with nothing but happy memories.
For children, the Eco Den offers a revolutionary kids area that appears to hang over the forest canopy. Staff at Soneva Kiri provide an exciting and innovative program of on-site and off-site activities, ensuring your little ones have a truly adventurous vacation. Here they will make new friends, learn new skills and explore the local culture, allowing you to truly relax during your stay.
Further activities include nature excursions and water activities, as well as a state-of-the-art observatory and Cinema Paradiso, showing classic movies under the stars. There is also a luxurious Spa, offering a refreshing menu of holistic and traditional treatments.
Whilst there is a beach directly in front of the resort, it is tidal and not usually used by guests. Instead, the resort provide a complimentary shuttle boat service across the bay to a lovely white-sand beach. Here the resort have set up sunbeds, changing facilities and food and beverage options.
