Soneva Kiri by Six Senses is located on the remote island of Koh Kood in the east of Thailand, which is known for its pure waterfalls, crystal clear waters and traditional village life. Transfers from Bangkok International Airport to Soneva Kiri Airport will take 60 minutes by the resort’s private plane, and from there it is just 2 kilometers by speed boat to the arrival pier.
Opened with its first phase in late 2008, the resort is set to become one of the most exclusive and luxurious resorts in the world.
In terms of accommodation, Soneva Kiri offers 42 pool villas along the beach front and on the hillside, including Junior Beach and Cliff Retreats, The Private Beach and Cliff Reserves, and The Eco Villa. The pool villas offer living space of between 400 and 770 square metres, with living areas and air-conditioned bedrooms surrounded by water features. Several villas feature private spa suites. All villas offer personal butler service. A private buggy is also made available with each villa.
The spacious and simple, yet sophisticated accommodations are enhanced by continually embracing innovations resulting in the creation of unique experiences blending luxurious lifestyles with spectacular panoramas of the surroundings. Electric golf carts and bicycles are the mode of transport within the resort, which is skillfully landscaped all the way to its stunning beaches and elegantly lined with palm trees.
When it comes to dining, Soneva Kiri pride themselves not just on the quality of their food and services but on the environment of the dining experience itself. At Soneva Kiri dining can be a romantic, private and unique experience through the many dining options available. From exciting and exclusive treetop dining in a special pod and intimate moonlit dinners on a private beach, to live cooking classes and simple, delicious lunches using the freshest of produce from the resort’s own organic fruit and vegetable gardens – the settings are as memorable as the cuisine. The delicious menus are created and presented by Soneva Kiri’s 3-Michelin-star Catalonian chef.
Soneva Kiri elevates the standards for fine dining in the region, boasting a unique wine list with a selection of over three hundred labels from the most important wine growing regions of the world, continuing to build on the reputation of providing guests with truly unique dining and wining experiences.
Soneva Kiri is relaxed and casual. The all-year-round comfortable tropical temperature requires only light and natural fabrics, so polo shirts, summer dresses and sarongs are ideal. Shoes are not practical on the soft sand or on the paths, so bring sandals or simply enjoy the freedom of going barefoot. Laundry service is offered, but there is no dry cleaning. The Soneva Resorts’ philosophy do not encourage their guests to browse the news of the world but rather to unwind and relax and for a while forget about the outside world, hence their “No News – No Shoes” slogan which many guests have come to appreciate when visiting any of the 5 star Soneva Resorts in Thailand or The Maldives.
A Six Senses Spa is a prime focus within the resort. A team of international and Thai therapists take guests on sensory journeys with Six Senses a la carte and local treatments for balancing the senses. The Spa menu is comprehensive and carefully designed to suit almost every guest’s specific taste and requirements and include Spa Journeys, Hot Stone Therapies and Jet Lag Recovery Treatments, to Indian Head Massages & Foot Recovery Treatments and of course Kiri’s Special Spa Packages and Offers.
