Overview

Pool Resort Villa Ideal for Kids Walk to Beach Romantic

Baan Raj is an inviting two-to-three-bedroom villa that sleeps up to six guests. Experience the solitude and beauty of tropical Thailand, indulge in a myriad of water activities and spend leisurely holidays with loved ones.

This oceanfront retreat is set in the magical island of Krabi, boasting panoramic views of Andaman Sea and Phi Phi. Nestled inside a teeming eco-boutique resort that celebrates the theme of ‘a hideout in paradise,’ it’s committed to high sustainability and reducing waste production.

Take marvellous walks, savour picturesque beaches and pamper yourself to a refreshing Thai massage. Afternoons are best enjoyed in the charming library, while the resort’s organic gardens are perfect for glorious sunsets.

Adventure junkies will delight in exploring the islands nearby. Go boating, swimming and paddle boarding. Jet ski all day, canoe through spectacular sea caves or kayak with vibrant mangroves in the backdrop.

There’s a colourful boutique store for an evening of retail therapy. Try motorbiking, surfing and snorkelling. Or, check with the staff for special tour and travel services.

The villa is just as impressive. An amble from the beach and engulfed by a private 2000 m2 garden, it’s as good as it gets!  

Much like the island, Baan Raj welcomes you with an airy, relaxed ambience, boasting all the luxuries of modern travel. One of its most striking features is the wealth of space it offers for sunbathing and outdoor lounging.   

The interiors draw inspiration from traditional Thai architecture, embellished with soothing, luscious designs using mostly natural materials like wood and stone.

The indoor-outdoor living area is ideal for cosy times with friends and family. It opens onto breezy exteriors that brim with all manner of swaying trees and garden variety. Elegant wooden accents, earthy décor and snug furnishings radiate a gratifying synergy of modern comfort and rustic island charm.

Curl up in the comfy seating area and bask in idyllic 180-degree views through large wooden folding doors and windows.

Settle down for sundown cocktail at the bar, sign up for private cooking classes in the villa’s open-air kitchen or tuck in for delicious meals at the indoor dining table. A minibar, tea and coffee maker are also provided.

There are three bedrooms in all, each fitted with king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms with open-air showers that make you feel at one with nature. While there are two detached master bedrooms, the third is sectioned off the living area with direct ocean views.

Baan Raj promises an effortlessly elegant and home-like experience with a landscape of mesmerising tropical beauty.

A brisk walk will take you to a range of eateries and scenic points. Surrounded by teeming mangroves, limestone cliffs and a constellation of over 100 islands, Baan Raj greets you with an exciting mix of activities and beachfront soirées.  

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 home to stunning beaches and wonderful limestone formations. An all-season favourite among rock-climbers, it has to over 700 climbing sites and hosts the annual Krabi Rock and Fire International Contest.

Kids and adults alike will love Krabi Elephant Sanctuary, where you can feed and swim with elephants for a truly once-in-lifetime experience.

The Aao Nam Mao Outdoor Aquarium is a no-brainer, famous for its dazzling exhibits of rare fish, turtles and sharks. You can’t miss the Phranang Beach cave for its sacred image of Buddha.

Island-hopping tours in Krabi Town and Ao Nang remain tourist favourites, taking you through beguiling caves and ancient island paintings in the company of an expert local guide.

Wildlife enthusiasts will have a memorable time at Thung Teao Forest Nature Park. Home to the Crystal Lagoon, also known as Emerald Pool, this warm water spring remains well-known for swimming against cascading waterfalls.

A treacherous, but equally 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. Witness 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 remarkable islands. Check out rock paintings of Viking ships in Koh Phi Phi Leh. Go snorkelling in Bamboo Island and swim with dazzling coral reefs. Koh Phi Phi Don is home to the majestic black-tip and leopard sharks.
