The Pimalai, Koh Lanta

Nestled on a long stretch of white sand beach backing onto lush tropical forest, the beautiful setting of the Pimalai Resort Koh Lanta immediately evokes a sense of relaxation, peace and solitude.

Pimalai has 121 rooms, suites and villas by a stretch of beach almost 1km long.

Accommodation options range from Deluxe Rooms set in low-rise Thai style houses to luxurious pool villas at the top of the resort.

Pimalai Koh Lanta is a two-hour transfer from Krabi airport, involving a car and speedboat transfer.

There are a couple of popular local restaurants just a stroll away.

Pimalai has a great 35-metre long fresh water infinity swimming pool, equipped with Jacuzzi jets. There is also an Infinty Pool at the Pool Villa's estate, 50 meters above sea level, with superb 180-degree views of the bay.
