Soneva Kiri, environmentally friendly luxury

The Resort is located on the unspoilt island of Koh Kood, 80 minute flight from Bangkok and 80 km from the east coast of Thailand, and is surrounded by a rich emerald sea and gleaming white beaches

Far from the frenzy of the continent, Soneva Kiri is found in the Gulf of Siam on the Island of Koh Kood, the fourth largest in Thailand but the least populated. Surrounded by luxuriant tropical vegetation of intense colours and gleaming white beaches, and nestled among palm trees and crystal-clear water, the Resort is elegantly integrated into the landscape, cleverly blending in with the incredible natural beauty of the place. Soneva Kiri exemplifies the concept of “intelligent luxury” that inspires the Soneva brand.

Accessible by private plane with a flight of 80 minutes from Dong Muang Airport of Bangkok, the Resort, instead, seems like it is a million miles from the real world. The sense of tranquillity of this secluded place and its perfect harmony with nature are unrivalled. Well off the usual beaten track of tourists, here you can enjoy the authenticity of the Thailand of long ago.

The 29 villas and 8 private residences of Soneva Kiri, which are located on the beach or on the gently slopes of the rain forest and overlooking the splendid sea, have all been built according to the principles of environmentally friendly design using selected local and natural raw materials.
