Soneva Kiri  is located on the remote but accessible island of Koh Kood in the northeast area of the Gulf of Thailand. The resort was developed using the principles of ecologically sustainable design. The 42 environmentally friendly villas overlooking the Gulf of Thailand include private infinity pools and outdoor terraces with lounge chairs. Every room category comes with personal butler service, and several villas also feature private spa suites. The Six Senses Spa features 11 double treatment rooms and four rooms featuring private relaxation areas. The resort has many dining options, including a formal dining room with Thai-inspired organic cuisine, a hut that features an expansive wood-fired rock oven and tandoor, and a Thai and Mediterranean restaurant where guests can opt for traditional kantoke seating (around a short table on cushions). There are also two cocktail lounges, an ice cream parlor, a chocolate room and a gourmet cheese vault. At arrival and departure, guests are escorted by speed boat just over a mile to and from the arrival pier and Soneva Kiri Airport. From there, flights to Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK) take 60 minutes.

Why We Love This Hotel

Location: Soneva Kiri is nestled into a beautiful corner of the tranquil island of Koh Kood, Thailand’s fourth largest island. Its position 80 km away from the mainland helps it maintain a sense of exclusivity.

History: Koh Kood offers a host of cultural and historical sites, many of which feature Cambodian influences from the influx of Cambodian refugees the island took on after the country’s political problems in the early 20th century.

Service: Soneva Kiri has award-winning facilities and impeccable service, making it one of the finest hotels in the world.
