From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:
It's all about the views at this hotel, which is on the Krabi coastline and offers astonishing vistas of Phang Nga Bay. Here, 54 sumptuous suites and villas sit amid tropical gardens and serpentine moats, but the extensive grounds have a downside: The property is not conducive to exploring by foot, and guests are urged to phone ahead for a chauffeured golf cart ride. Rooms are Dubai-level lavish, with interiors of cream granite and white linen. The bathrooms have lotus-shaped sinks, double-headed rain showers, and outdoor tubs, and most rooms have massive beds. Only the beach is disappointing: The shallows are rocky, and the bay is marred by an unsightly dredging complex. Offering compensation is an expansive infinity pool flanked by plush double-loungers and rattan-clad coolers stocked with chilled face towels and fresh coconuts (which pool attendants will offer to crack open for you). 2010 Hot ListWhich room to book: Middle-category Beach Villas (Nos. 1, 2, 3, 6, and 8) are the smallest but have direct beach access.
