Pimalai Resort & Spa, the iconic five-star retreat on Koh Lanta, is showcasing the idyllic islands and spectacular seascapes of Mu Ko Lanta National Park with an enticing new package that lets guests feel a deep connection with their exotic destination, both on land and at sea. It is available for bookings and stays between 1st November and 3rd December 2020 only.
Covering 134 square kilometers of tropical waters, unspoiled islands, hidden coves and captivating coasts in southern Thailand’s Krabi province, Mu Ko Lanta National Park is blessed with an abundance of flora and fauna, including lush jungles and vibrant marine life. Having been completely closed to tourists since March 2020, this enchanting ecosystem has been revitalized and its wildlife has thrived in the absence of humans.
From 15th October 2020, this mesmerizing marine park to ready inspire visitors once again, and Pimalai has created a rewarding new package that includes a choice of sustainable tours that are designed to be sensitive to the environment.
Under the “Three Nights with Island Excursions” package, Thai residents can enjoy luxurious accommodation, including Deluxe Rooms, Pavilion Suites, Beach Villas and Hillside Oceanview Pool Villas, all of which promise plenty of indoor and outdoor space, with up to three bedrooms and private balconies or terraces. Every stay is complemented by daily breakfast for two people, one exquisite “Exotic Thai” set dinner, a sumptuous “Surf & Turf Barbecue” set dinner, transfers to and from Krabi Airport, and a choice of exclusive offshore explorations.
Koh Rok is a tropical paradise, lined with powder-soft sands and lapped by crystal clear seas
The “Fabulous Koh Rok” tour leaves Pimalai at 10am for the scenic 1.5-hour boat ride to Koh Rok, a pair of paradise islands lined with powder-soft sandy beaches and lapped by warm, shallow seas. Following an hour of swimming and snorkeling, guests will be treated to a delicious onboard lunch, before embarking on a scenic sightseeing cruise around Koh Rok, with even more opportunities to plunge into the inviting ocean and uncover the enthralling underwater world. The boat then departs at 2.30pm for journey back to Pimalai’s pier, marking the end of an unforgettable day.
Alternatively, the “Koh Haa Sunset” adventure departs at 2.00pm and transports guests to Koh Haa (“Five Islands”) – a breath-taking collection of five limestone islets which enclose a dazzling aquamarine lagoon, a technicolor coral reef and a pure white beach. This provides the perfect spot for an afternoon of swimming and snorkeling that will live long in the memory. Departing at 5.30pm, a leisurely journey back to Pimalai will be enhanced with canapés and cool drinks, including wine and beer, as the sun sets over the Andaman Sea.
Whichever option they choose, travelers will enjoy a truly unforgettable experience in these stunning surroundings, accompanied by their loved ones and escorted by a professional boat captain, all in line with the “new normal” of safe and socially-distant hospitality.
“One of the unexpected benefits of the recent lockdown has been its impact on nature. In Thailand, the closure of our national parks – especially popular marine reserves like Koh Lanta – has rejuvenated local wildlife and enabled delicate ecosystems to flourish. At Pimalai, we are deeply committed to conservation, and our small-scale, low-impact excursions will give guests the chance to see some of Asia’s most outstanding natural attractions up-close, in an entirely sustainable way,” said Patrice Landrein, Pimalai's General Manager.
Both excursions offer plenty of opportunities to discover the vibrant marine life of Mu Ko Lanta National Park
Popular with A-list celebrities, top executives and honeymooners, Pimalai combines spacious accommodation and world-class cuisine with exceptional leisure facilities and activities, including the Pimalai Spa, sports center, tennis court, water sports, diving and snorkeling, a fitness centre, yoga, Thai boxing and cooking classes. It is little wonder that this five-star retreat recently won a series of Tripadvisor “Best of the Best” awards, putting it in the top 1% of hotels and resorts worldwide.
Under the “Pimalai Care” program, the resort has implemented a series of innovative health and hygiene measures, including ozone sanitization, heat cleaning and disinfection tunnels. Social distancing is guaranteed, with at least two meters separating every room, suite or villa, no corridors or elevators, and fresh air breezing through every part of this 100 acre seafront estate.
Pimalai’s “Three Nights with Island Excursions” package is available for bookings and stays between 1st November and 3rd December 2020. Rates start from just THB 17,180! For more information and reservations, please email reservation@pimalai.com or call 02 320 5500.
