       At Pimalai, rekindle your love for nature amidst lush tropical forests and the endless Andaman waters. Discover Koh Lanta’s best kept secret, nestled within the solitude and serenity of surrounding mountains.

       The name "Pimalai" is derived from ancient Sanskrit, meaning, "a little patch of Heaven". True to its name, Pimalai brings you the perfect combination of nature and luxury, but one of a different kind - the luxury of being in a unique and exclusive environment, without the fuss that comes with it; the luxury of experiencing an out of the beaten track destination, and the luxury of being pampered by friendly island natives who not only perform their duties, but give you that little extra something that makes all the difference.

       Built around a respect for nature, seek refuge in Pimalai for a luxurious and elegant beach resort experience with genuinely friendly service by a dedicated crew. Situated away from the hustle and bustle of crowded beaches and close to the Lanta Marine National Park, Pimal ai is the perfect destination for that dream vacation, romantic wedding or honeymoon, diving trip or even business meetings. The 1 hour long journey to Koh Lanta via our resort’s speedboat from Krabi mainland may be tiring to some, but the incredible sights of Thailand’s smaller islands during this trip will be truly unforgettable.

       Amidst 100 acres of tropical vegetation, direct access to over 900 meters of pristine sandy beach, lose yourself in the sights and sounds of nature, with buzzing cicadas, birds and eagles hovering majestically above, and mischievous squirrels and monkeys on the trees surrounding you.
