ULTIMATE ROMANTIC GETAWAY
The ultimate romantic getaway awaits at Rayavadee, a village-style resort standing on a secluded headland above the turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea.
Framed by dramatic limestone cliffs, jungle and glorious sandy beaches, Rayavadee sets the standard for tropical relaxation in Krabi. You’ll arrive by private boat, and make your way through the lush gardens and coconut groves to reach your standalone, two-storey pavilion or uber-luxurious villa. Blending harmoniously into their natural surroundings, each features elegant Thai styling, generous bathrooms and terraces. Some pavilions boast private plunge pools, whilst villas add another level of luxury with dedicated butler service.
At Rayavadee, soft white sands are just a stroll away, as well as the opportunity for nature walks, island-hopping boat trips and kayaking. You can also lounge by the lagoon-style pool, sip cocktails in a candlelit cave and dine in four distinctive restaurants that specialise in everything from light Asian fare to richly flavoured Thai dishes. Additional attractions include floodlit tennis courts and a decadent spa where you can indulge in a personalised programme of health and beauty treatments. For an insight into local life, visits can be arranged to Krabi’s colourful morning market, as well as lessons in the art of batik painting and flower garland making.

From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
