Pimalai Resort & Spa in Detail

Your Wellness Hotel

The Pimalai Resort & Spa on the enchanting island of Koh Lanta invites you to experience the beauty of Thailand in a serene setting. Surrounded by tropical jungle and with direct access to a white sandy beach, the resort offers everything your heart desires: exclusive villas with sea views, an award-winning spa with traditional Thai treatments, and a plethora of activities from snorkeling and diving to nature excursions in mangrove forests or island tours.

Location & Surroundings

In the eastern Indian Ocean, about 90 km south of the Thai province of Krabi, on the east side of Phang Nga Bay, lies the island of Koh Lanta in the midst of the Andaman Sea. Spanning approximately 27 km of coastline, the island boasts stunning beaches. The original rainforest stretches over the characteristic hilly landscape, and a colourful aquatic world invites you to various diving excursions in the vicinity. During the monsoon season (May-Oct.), occasional rain showers can be expected.

Dining & Leisure

At Pimalai Resort & Spa, look forward to a variety of culinary delights. At the Spice and Rice Restaurant, authentic Southern Thai dishes await you, while the Rak Talay Beach Bar and Restaurant serves fresh seafood right on the beach. A special highlight is the Seven Seas Restaurant, perched 60 metres above sea level, offering a spectacular view of the bay and the Andaman Sea. Here, you can enjoy Western cuisine and exquisite wines from the hotel's own wine cellar. For light snacks and drinks, visit The Banyan Tree Poolside Café, while the Pimalai Heritage Bar offers refreshing beverages all day long with breathtaking views.

As a winner of the World Luxury Spa Awards, the spa offers an unparalleled atmosphere with two infinity pools: a panoramic pool approximately 50 m above sea level, and a freshwater pool with sun loungers. A state-of-the-art fitness centre is also available for your use.
