Baan Chai Ley Thailand

Set in the backdrop of beautiful Krabi, Baan Chai Ley in Thailand is a cosy one-bedroom retreat for two. Engulfed by fragrant gardens and an idyll of vistas, it’s the perfect escape for couples seeking a romantic getaway.  
Nestled inside an eco-boutique resort that celebrates the theme of ‘a hideout in paradise,’ the property is committed to high sustainability and reducing waste production.
Stroll along a 700-meter-long private beach, just steps away. Indulge in an array of water activities and take in endless views of the ocean. Go island-hopping, sea cave canoeing and jet skiing — there is something for everyone.
The resort welcomes you with a wealth of facilities. Spend hours paddle boarding, try motorbiking or kayak through teeming mangroves. Hobnob with fellow travellers in the pool area, best enjoyed over sundowner cocktails. Work up a sweat in the well-stocked gym before you tuck in for a rejuvenating Thai massage.
Unwind with a cup of tea in the organic garden or spend quiet afternoons inside the charming library. Other facilities include tours and travel services, and a vibrant resort store.
Flanked by scenic landscapes of Koh Pu, the villa is just as striking.
It invites you with a breezy open deck, overlooking lush gardens. Stretch out on comfy chairs, enjoy views of Koh Phi Phi and savour the serene, beachy vibe of the place.    
The interiors are bright and airy, oozing a soothing, summery ambience. This elegant estate features an open-plan style studio with an elevated sleeping area. It’s adorned with traditional Thai architecture and earthy, tasteful designs using mostly natural materials like wood and stone.
Glossy floorings and impressive wooden beams mix with intricate, local handicrafts that exude a sense of tranquillity.
The living space is kitted with comfy L-shaped jute seating, perfect to unwind at. Large wood-framed doors and windows open onto a nearly 180-degree view of the outdoor garden and sea.
Make most of the airy, open-plan kitchen. Dig into hearty meals or enjoy a round of cocktails.
A puffy king-size canopy bed promises a good night’s sleep. It also features an en-suite open-air double Balinese style rain shower, making you feel at one with nature.
Staying true to its philosophy of naturalism, Baan Noi Chai Ley does not offer a TV.
Spend days exploring attractions nearby. Head to Krabi Elephant Sanctuary, where you can feed and swim with elephants for a truly once-in-lifetime experience. The Aao Nam Mao Outdoor Aquarium boasts marvellous exhibits of rare fish, turtles and sharks. Try ziplining at Tree Top Adventure Park or swim in crystal clear waters.Set in the idyllic province of Krabi, famous for its jagged limestone cliffs, mangrove forests and a constellation of over 100 islands, the resort could not be better located.
The most convenient point of arrival is Krabi International Airport. From there, a representative of the resort will ferry you to the resort in a private long-tail boat (35 mins) or private speed boat (20 mins). The resort also organizes pickups from Phuket Airport, Ao Nang Beach and the neighbouring islands of Koh Phi Phi and Koh Lanta.
Accessible only by boat, Railay Beach is worth a visit for its white-washed sand, azure waters and bewitching limestone formations. Well-known among rock-climbers, it’s home to over 700 climbing sites and the annual Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest. Explore the Phranang Beach cave, boasting a sacred image of Buddha. Check out the many oceanfront shacks, lively bars and eclectic restaurants.
Island-hopping boat tour from Krabi Town or Ao Nang is a big yes! Discover fascinating caves, mangrove jungles and ancient island paintings in the company of an expert local guide. Wildlife enthusiasts can’t skip the Thung Teao Forest Nature Park. Home to the Crystal Lagoon, also known as Emerald Pool, this warm water spring is ideal for swimming amidst cascading waterfalls. If you’re lucky, you’ll spot the rare Pitta Gurney bird.
A challenging, but rewarding climb of 1,237 steps will take you to the Footprints of Buddha in the Tiger Cave Temple. The name is derived from a legend, which suggests that a fearsome tiger used to live in one of the many natural caves surrounding the temple. Witness the lives of monks who used to live and meditate inside these caves. You will see captivating stone tools, pottery relics and bizarre pictures of cadavers — which symbolise the Buddhist philosophy that all physical forms are transitory.
Flung 43 kms west of Krabi, Koh Phi consists of six gorgeous islands. Check out rock paintings of Viking ships in Koh Phi Phi Leh. Go snorkelling in Bamboo Island and explore dazzling coral reefs.
Adventure-seekers will love the waters of Koh Phi Phi Don, where you can spot the majestic black-tip and leopard sharks.
