Overview
Nestled in the breathtaking island of Krabi, Thailand, Baan Noi Chai Ley is an elegant one-bedroom retreat for two. Tucked away in an eco-boutique resort that celebrates the theme of ‘a hideout in paradise,’ the property is committed to high sustainability and reducing waste production.
A brisk walk takes you to a 700-meter-long private beach for thrilling water sports and glorious sunsets. Go island hopping, sea cave canoeing and jet skiing — the choices are endless.
The resort facilities are second to none. Luxuriate in the outdoor pool, try paddle boarding and spend all afternoon motorbiking through verdant foliage. Make most of the state-of-the-art fitness centre or treat yourself to a relaxing Thai massage.
For a quieter time indoors, head to the well-stocked library or unwind with a cup of tea in the organic garden. Other facilities include tours and travel services, and a charming resort store.
From stunning views of the Andaman Sea and Phi Phi Island, to picturesque backdrops of Koh Pu Mountain and the Golden Pearl Beach — the villa is surrounded by a breadth of landscapes. Engulfed by secluded, fragrant gardens, it’s perfect for couples seeking an intimate escape.
Its airy sun deck teems with cosy lounger chairs and a coffee table, oozing a tropical, beachy feel.
The interiors are bright and roomy, boasting a soothing, summery ambience. The villa is adorned with traditional Thai architecture and designs using mostly natural materials like wood and stone. Glossy floorings and elegant wooden accents blend artfully with stunning handicrafts.
Comfy jute couches are surrounded by large wood-framed doors and windows, which open onto a nearly 180-degree view of the outdoor garden and sea. The adjoining 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. Staying true to its philosophy of naturalism, Baan Noi Chai Ley does not offer a TV.
Don’t forget to visit Krabi Elephant Sanctuary, where you can feed and swim with elephants for a truly once-in-lifetime experience. Head to The Aao Nam Mao Outdoor Aquarium — a place of awe and wonder, brimming with marvellous exhibits of rare fish, turtles and sharks. Go-ziplining at Tree Top Adventure Park or kayak through azure waters — there’s something for everyone.

Location
About the surrounding area of Baan Noi Chai LeyTucked in the scenic province of Krabi, famous for its jagged limestone cliffs, mangrove forests and a constellation of over 100 islands, the resort is blessed with an enviable location. 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 famous for its white-washed sand, deep blue waters and awe-inspiring limestone formations. Ever-popular among rock-climbers, it’s home to over 700 climbing sites and the annual Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest. Explore the Phranang Beach cave, boasting a sacred image of Buddha. Unwind in the many oceanfront shacks and eclectic restaurants located on the beach.
Sign up for an island-hopping boat tour from Krabi Town or Ao Nang. Discover other-worldly caves, mangrove jungles and ancient island paintings in the company of an expert local guide. Wildlife lovers should not miss out on Thung Teao Forest Nature Park. Home to the Crystal Lagoon, also known as Emerald Pool, this warm water spring is ideal for swimming against a backdrop of cascading waterfalls. While you’re here, keep an eye out for the rare Pitta Gurney bird.
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. Get a glimpse into the lives of monks who used to live and meditate inside these caves. You will see fascinating 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 scenic islands. Check out rock paintings of Viking ships in Koh Phi Phi Leh. Go snorkelling in Bamboo Island and marvel at dazzling coral reefs.
Adventure-seekers will love the waters of Koh Phi Phi Don, where you can witness the majestic black-tip and leopard sharks.
