Kata Noi beachfront haven
The property spans almost the entire curve of Kata Noi Beach, arranging family-focused wings and pools along the sand.
What it’s good at
Notable
Welcoming returning multi-generational families to Kata Noi Bay continuously since 1984.
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Not only does this resort have six swimming pools of its own, but it also has direct access to much of Kata Noi Beach.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The bay sits on a quiet cul-de-sac south of Kata, with Karon Viewpoint a short drive uphill.
The rooms
Beachfront suites in the Thani Wing have teakwood accents and wide private balconies looking straight out to sea.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Six outdoor pools range from garden lap lanes to beachfront lagoons with submerged seating and water park slides.
Gym and spa
Two fitness centres look out over the grounds, and outdoor salas host massages beneath beachfront casuarina trees.
At the table
Dining ranges from grilled seafood at beachfront Fisherman's Wharf to Italian dishes accompanied by live piano at La Scala.
How it began
Founder Atiset Wanglee built the resort in 1984, starting with 44 bungalows crafted from surplus sawmill timber.
