What it’s good at
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The grounds curve along the quiet northern end of Lamai Beach. Central Lamai's markets and nightlife are a short drive away.
The rooms
Deluxe rooms overlook the 50-meter hillside lap pool. Standalone villas add private swimming pools and four-poster beds.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Submerged loungers line the beachfront infinity pool, and a 50-meter lap pool sits higher up the hillside.
The spa and gym
Treatment villas at Quan Spa have steam rooms and outdoor plunge pools, and the fitness center is open 24 hours.
At the table
tawaNN serves local seafood on an open-air terrace, and candlelit tables are set directly on the beach.
How it began

Originally opened as the Buriraya Resort, the property relaunched in 2006 as the first Renaissance hotel in Thailand.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
