Utopia Villa Thailand

In the most private and calm corner of the entire Shell Sea resort, the largest, most heavenly villa on the premises, Utopia Villa offers a special slice of luxury for up to four incredibly lucky guests!
Picture windows and countless French doors surround the interiors, inviting in the warm glow of the sunshine and providing wonderful views of your fabulous garden beyond! Your main living area sits between two walls of vast doors, ensuring the cool sea breeze and relaxing sounds of nature flow freely though the room, as you kick-back in your comfortable sofa in front of the 54” smart TV, ensuring you can settle in comfort for a relaxing film or catch up on your favourite shows after a long day exploring the island! Your kitchenette is fully equipped and there is also a pantry, so you can gather the group for a memorable meal!
The two fantastic bedrooms are distributed around your lovely pool in the garden, so that you need only take a couple of steps to be in the sunshine and the refreshing depths of the water. Each room has a super-king-size bed at the centre, with a sofa and a TV for private enjoyment. A fabulous ensuite bathroom for each room includes a luxurious walk-in rain shower and gorgeous bathrobes. An enormous Jacuzzi bathtub in magnificent natural surroundings is the perfect place to relax in peace or enjoy a romantic evening together!
And finally, encircling the villa is your vast and secluded tropical garden, complete with a casual seating area, a large lawn, a myriad of fragrant trees and plants, and of course, at its heart, a wonderful private pool! Settle into a lounger on the terrace for the perfect day in the sunshine, dipping in and out of your refreshing private pool as the heat gets a little too much! From your magnificent Jacuzzi you can enjoy a truly breath-taking panorama of the Andaman Sea. Enjoy a tipple from your own mini-bar, or if you’d rather enjoy some world-class cocktails, two fantastic bars await you on the resort: the open-air Azure Bar in the tropical gardens, serving classic cocktails and premium wines, and the beachfront Fin Bar, with daytime snacks, quality drinks and fresh seafood!
The Shell Sea Resort is the perfect blend of tranquillity and activity for your stay, with delicious cuisine and fabulous drinks served across a fine selection of bars and restaurants on the beachfront. With a fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment, a spa with Jacuzzi bathtubs and steam rooms and a full menu of treatments, an onsite children’s club with activities through the day, and several pools, including an exquisite adults’ only pool and one family-friendly pool, you’ll find your every wish granted! 24-hour room service and a free daily shuttle to the stunning Aonang beach, as well as endless organised tours will ensure you needn’t lift a finger in your relaxing stay with us! Set among endless miles of beautiful white beaches, coral reefs, towering limestone cliffs, caves, waterfalls and exotic wildlife, The Shell Sea Resort is a boutique.
Often called the ‘The Emerald of Andaman’, the province of Krabi, located between Phang Nga and Trang, is the perfect holiday destination for those looking for a relaxing break in Thailand. It is less developed and crowded than Phuket, more laid back than Koh Samui, and just an 80-minute flight from Bangkok!
Just 300m away is the incredible Fossil Shell Beach, a 40-million-year-old freshwater swamp that is now literally a ‘shell graveyard’ and a fascinating pre-historic moment on the south coast of Krabi Province. Meanwhile, the famous Aonang Beach is just 10 mins away from the resort, while it’s just 20 minutes to Krabi town, a small relaxed city with a population of around 55,000 and a fantastic night market with over seventy food stalls, open every Friday to Sunday evening. Offering endless miles of fine white sands, glistening palm trees and shimmering blue seas, this is undoubtedly one of the world’s finest beach destinations, with more than a hundred offshore islands! So whether you’re after a traditional beach retreat of sandcastles, paddling and sun-bathing on the many nearby tropical islands or a hike up the countless towering mountains, Krabi has something for everyone!
Beautiful hikes and activities can be enjoyed throughout the lush tropical jungle, freshwater lagoons and dense mangroves of the region. The ultimate attraction is undoubtedly Phanom Bencha National Park, including the Huay Toh Waterfall with eleven levels including many large pools where you can swim! The thrill-seekers and adventurers among the group will also be more than satisfied with the fantastic entertainment options on the island which include Elephant Trekking, white water rafting, rock-climbing on the famous limestone karsts, scuba diving and snorkelling among the tropical fish and kayaking through emerald pools. Rock-climbing is best enjoyed on one of the iconic Khao Khanab Nam Mountains and the incredible craggy peninsula of Rai Leh that is Thailand’s climbing Mecca!
And for those simply looking to be pampered, soak up the sunshine and indulge in a little ‘me time’ there are plenty of spas, massage parlours and golden beaches to get in a little self-care and relaxation!
The nearest airport is Krabi International Airport, 25km from the resort, while Phuket International Airport is less than 3 hours away. Regular services run from Bangkok and Chiang Mai, with some flights from Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Doha and several cities in China.
