Less than an hour away by boat from Phuket, Krabi is the perfect getaway for beach lovers who prefer to relax in a much quieter and more scenic island.

This coastal province located southwest of Thailand is also a popular tourist destination (albeit, quieter than the more famous Phuket) with it's beautiful scenery, azure waters and good tourist infrastructure.

Tempted?

If so, you might want to sample one of the newest tourist facilities in Krabi… the newly-opened (soft launch) Central Krabi Bay Resort.

"Retaining a traditionally Thai feel and architecture, the resort offers extensive facilities and elegantly appointed guest rooms and private villas.

192 luxury ocean-facing rooms and villas offer generous accommodations completed with extensive terraces for a spacious outdoor lounging and dinning experience. With 72 sq. meters room size as standard, guest rooms feature bathrooms with extra-deep baths and Heavenly rain showers, flat screen satellite TV's, in-room safe, mini-bar, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer, and high speed internet access. The Club offers unrivalled levels of service with the exclusive club lounge access."

A fabulous location and a great resort. Perfect tropical island getaway during the dreary winter months in the UK.
