The Lover’s Retreat is a delightful villa with a private pool and jacuzzi on the unforgettable Tubkaak Resort, majestically set against the stunning backdrop of the Hang Nak Mountain!
You are greeted by an airy and welcoming room, with gorgeous, vaulted ceilings and an array of natural colours and textures. With both a Satellite TV and DVD player and a fabulous Bose stereo for excellent sound quality, you have the space and equipment for a perfect day of relaxation indoors. A fridge, mini-bar, tea making facilities and Nespresso coffee machine ensure that whatever the mood, you’ll have the beverage to complement it! So sip a fresh juice, your morning coffee or perhaps even a local wine by the pool and forget your worries!
Your vast bed sits at the heart of the room, enjoying views across your beautiful pool garden. A small desk to one side is ideal for penning a letter or a postcard home, nestled in the most relaxing environment. A large TV on the wall ensures you can get tucked up in the bed, switch on a classic film or your favourite show, and wind down after a thrilling day exploring the wonders of Krabi!
And finally, for the most magical day in the sunshine, head out to your tropical garden, lined with vibrant plants of all kinds. A luxurious jacuzzi bath to one end is the perfect place to unwind in the warm evenings, gazing up at the stars and enjoying one another’s company, because it’s the simple things in life!
The Tubkaak Resort is the perfect blend of tranquillity and activity for your stay, with delicious Thai and Italian cuisine and fabulous drinks served across a fine selection of bars and restaurants! With a fitness centre, spa, library and conference facilities, you’ll find everything you could wish for! Between dining at the fabulous Di Mare and Arundina restaurants on the beachfront, serving up the freshest, finest Thai and Italian food and being pampered and soothed at the L’escape Spa, in the most picturesque location amid the forest, you might find it hard to tear yourself away!
The iconic twin islands of Koh Yao Yai and Koh Yao Noi in the distance provide a perfect shelter, creating a safe and calm beach at Tubkaak all year round, with stunning views across the 13-island archipelago with a mountain backdrop – it doesn’t get much more scenic! Nestled amid truly spectacular surroundings, The Tubkaak Resort is a pristine paradise of solitude and tranquillity in one of Thailand’s most beautiful hidden gems.
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!
The west coast of Krabi offers magnificent views across the stunning archipelago of 13 islands, impressive mountains, clear and calm waters and almost always blue skies. At both Railay Beach and the Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot) you can enjoy some of the finest waters and beaches of Thailand!
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, 40 minutes 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.
