Soneva Kiri is located on Koh Kood, a remote island on Thailand's east coast known for its pristine waterfalls, crystal-clear waters, and traditional villages. A private 80-minute flight from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport brings you to Soneva Kiri Airport, followed by a short two-kilometer speedboat ride to the resort's arrival pier. Nestled amidst palm-fringed hills around a secluded bay, Soneva Kiri offers twenty-seven expansive villas. Guests can relax on king-size daybeds overlooking the golden sand, enjoy stargazing at the high-tech observatory, or watch movies under the stars at Cinema Paradiso. Dining options include savoring homemade Thai cuisine while fireflies dance nearby or indulging in gourmet delights in a unique treetop dining pod. Soneva Kiri also boasts 34 ultra-spacious pool villas, ranging from one to six bedrooms, each featuring beautifully designed interiors crafted from sustainable materials. The villas blend seamlessly with the island's natural beauty. As Thailand's fourth largest yet least populated island, Koh Kood offers lush rainforests and pristine beaches. Guests can explore the jungle, unwind on the private beach, swim in nearby waterfalls, or snorkel among vibrant coral reefs. Rejuvenate at the renowned Six Senses Spa, offering a wide selection of Eastern and Western wellness therapies.
