Baan Sharmar Thailand

Flanked by white sand beaches and majestic limestone structures, Baan Sharmar in Thailand’s Krabi province is a luxurious four-bedroom holiday home for eight. A few quick steps from your terrace will take you to a sparkling beach with panoramic views of Koh Pu island on the east. The region is full of fun activities like island hopping tours, sea cave canoeing, jet skiing and ATV adventures.
This eco-friendly resort feels like your own hideout in paradise, committed to high sustainability and reducing waste production. Its many facilities include a large swimming pool, paddle board and motorbike rental, tours and travel services and a boutique resort store.
Work up a sweat in the well-equipped fitness room, followed by a rejuvenating massage in the spa center. Spend peaceful hours in the library or enjoy a cup of tea in the organic garden.
Drawing inspiration from traditional Thai architecture, the villa is designed with mostly natural materials like wood and stone. Offering panoramic views of the Andaman Sea and Phi Phi islands, it features a private manicured garden and gorgeous beach frontage. All the rooms are fully air-conditioned, with large ceiling fans.
The sprawling outdoor deck boasts a leafy, Balinese feel, with direct access to the luxurious swimming pool. Relax with friends and family on the lounge chairs and take in the beautiful sunsets.
The living area is open and breezy, with glossy stone floorings, elegant wooden beams and pastel-hued accents. Comfy beige couches are surrounded by large folding doors and windows which open onto a nearly 180 degree view of the outdoor garden and beach.
The kitchen is roomy and well-equipped, with shiny countertops and wooden cabinetry. It includes a minibar, and tea and coffee making facilities. A 5-seater wooden dining table is perfect for intimate family meals.
There are four bedrooms in all, two of them master suites. One of these looks out onto the Andaman Sea towards Koh Phi Phi. The other two bedrooms have king-size beds and share a bathroom.
The villa also has elegantly attached open-air showers which make you feel at one with nature.Nestled in scenic Krabi, famous for its jagged limestone cliffs, mangrove forests and a constellation of over 100 islands, the resort possesses an enviable location. The most convenient point of arrival is Krabi International Airport. From there, an official 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 neighboring islands of Koh Phi Phi and Koh Lanta.
Accessible only by boat, Railay Beach is popular for its dewy white sand, turquoise blue waters and sublime limestone formations. It is a haven for rock-climbers with over 700 climbing sites and the annual Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest. Explore the Phranang Beach cave which contains a sacred image of Buddha. Try out local cuisine in the many beachfront shacks and breezy restaurants on the beach.
Enroll for an island- hopping boat tour from Krabi Town or Ao Nang. Explore mysterious caves, mangrove jungles and ancient island paintings in the company of an expert local guide. Nature lovers should head to Thung Teao Forest Nature Park. Home to the Crystal Lagoon, also known as Emerald Pool, this warm water spring is ideal for swimming against a backdrop of cascading waterfalls. If you are lucky, you might just spot the highly endangered, bright colored Pitta Gurney bird.
A challenging, but ultimately 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. Get a glimpse into the lives of monks who used to live and meditate inside these caves. You will see rustic stone tools, pottery relics and bizarre pictures of cadavers, which symbolize the Buddhist philosophy that all physical forms are transitory.
Situated 43 kms west of Krabi, Koh Phi Phi consists of 6 beautiful islands. Discover rock paintings of Viking ships in Koh Phi Phi Leh. Go snorkeling in Bamboo Island and witness dazzling coral reefs.
