Banyan Tree Krabi – a locally infused resort in Southern Thailand offering an oasis of opportunities to rejuvenate the mind, body, and soul. Boasting extensive views over a pristine sandy beach and the sapphire waters of the Andaman Sea, the newly opened Banyan Tree Krabi is nestled among landscaped gardens with a backdrop of lush forests. This beachfront property offers 72 spaciously stunning sea-facing pool suites and villas, each with a private pool. Other highlights include two restaurants; a beach bar; the Sunset Wedding Deck Banyan Tree Spa and much more.

The hotel is located on Tub Kaek beach, one of the most peaceful and tranquil beaches on the Andaman Sea coastline, surrounding by plentiful mountains and islands. Khao-Ngon-Nak or Ngon Naga mountain is protected by Toh- Naga, a sacred deity that is worshipped by the residents in Krabi. “Toh” is a personal pronoun to respected seniority and “Naka” is a representation of the great Serpent King.

Facilities at Banyan Tree Krabi include two restaurants and a beach bar, a fitness centre, a meeting centre, and in keeping with Banyan Tree’s global wellbeing branding — a rainforest-themed spa. The centrepiece of the resort, as guests walk through the naga legend-inspired entrance, is a circular water feature in the lobby that cascades into a cavernous meeting room area below. With a backdrop of emerald sea and karsts, the awe-inspiring spectacle is shaping up as one of the resort’s signature images. The hotel offers eight suite and villa types. The most modest accommodation type, coming in at 99 sq.m, is the Deluxe Pool Suite. Highlight of the room is a sumptuous double bed, situated beneath a pitched hardwood ceiling and fan.

The resort footprint is built with respect to create the least impact on the surrounding natural environment : blending with nature mindset. The serene natural beauty can be seen throughout the site and from nearby community seamlessly.
