Stayed in a private suite that was almost like a mini-villa right on the beachfront. Going for a dip in the sea was as easy as just walking out the front door. The beach was almost like a private beach with just the smaller Kantiang Bay View resort at the far end. We were there in May which was the... More

We spent a week at Pimalai in early March on the recommendation of our son, who lives in Koh Lanta. we had a wonderful time and found the staff to be very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast buffet was a pleasure and the dinner entrees were among the best I've ever had. A light crusted grouper dish was particularly outstanding.... More

We chose the Pimalai primarily on location and price. We wanted to be away from all the hassle of the touristy parts like Phuket and Kho Samui. We flew from Bangkok, which we used as our hub while traveling for two and half weeks, to Krabi. We had booked our transfer through Krabishuttle which worked well. It is a bit... More

My wife and I returned from Pimalai last week at the end of a three week Thailand trip and I must say it was absolutely delightful. We had a week there and will definitely be returning for two next year. The arrival transfer went very smoothly with a seamless boat launch making it a little special. We had a gorgeous... More

I booked to go with my sister and friend as a treat. We stayed in one of the cheapest rooms at around $300. I have to say the room was very nice but not worth $300 dollars. The resort was incredible though. If you have money to spend stay in one of the places over looking the beach or on... More

My wife and I stayed at the Pimalai Beach resort near Krabbe in Thailand three years ago. We took a flight from Bangkok to Krabbe where the hotel car was waiting for us. It was a 30 mts car drive followed by a wonderfully scenic speedboat ride. Another hotel taxi was waiting for us on the other side to take... More

We were collected from the airport and taken to the hotels private jetty were we boarded the hotels private speed boat. The driver said would you like to go the quickest or the most beautiful?? We opted for the beautiful and by god do we choose right, we were taken through the most breathtaking limestone valley......we literally didn't say anything... More

I went to Pimalai as part of a tour of Thailand for our honeymoon we stayed at the lower part of the resort, closer to the beach and we were very happy with the room we had very spacious and with a nice flat l cd TV. The Spa is the best I have ever seen and the therapist are... More

Don't bother looking further if you're looking for the best hotel on Koh Lanta, the Pimalai is it. I'm not going to list the good things about the hotel (it's just great), but here are the negatives: - the food & beverages prices are a rip-off. There isn't much around either and the few restaurants available have somewhat adjusted to... More
