A sparkling private outdoor pool makes for a relaxing siesta. Sundown with a round of cocktails, stretch out on comfy loungers and bask in the calming, beachy ambience of the place.
This elegant estate features an open-plan style studio with an elevated sleeping area. It’s adorned with traditional Thai decor and earthy designs using mostly natural materials like wood and stone. Glossy wooden fixtures and local handicrafts exude a sense of tranquillity, while poppy Asian-blue elements keep things fun.
The living space is kitted with comfy jute seating area. Large wood-framed doors and windows open onto a nearly 180-degree view of the outdoor garden and sea, allowing abundant sunlight.

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.
Brimming with eateries and scenic points, the villa is in an enviable location. Spend an afternoon at Krabi Elephant Sanctuary, where you can feed and swim with elephants for a truly once-in-lifetime experience. The Aao Nam Mao Outdoor Aquarium is home to stunning exhibits of rare fish, turtles and sharks.A treasure trove of jagged limestone cliffs, captivating mangroves and a constellation of over 100 islands, Baan Si Faah 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 sultry beaches and breathtaking limestone formations. A haven for rock-climbers, it boasts over 700 climbing sites and the annual Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest. You can’t miss the Phranang Beach cave, famous for its sacred image of Buddha. Have a fantastic time at many oceanfront shacks 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 will have a great time at Thung Teao Forest Nature Park. Home to the Crystal Lagoon, also known as Emerald Pool, this warm water spring remains ever-popular for swimming against cascading waterfalls.
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 remarkable islands. Check out rock paintings of Viking ships in Koh Phi Phi Leh. Go snorkelling in Bamboo Island and swim with dazzling coral reefs. Koh Phi Phi Don is home to the majestic black-tip and leopard sharks.
