Tree Krabi
Contemporary Thai luxury with mythological design accents; intimate, wellness-forward, romantic. Tiered hillside layout means every unit faces the sea and the sunset.
The Naga-inspired lobby is one of the most dramatic hotel entrances in southern Thailand — worth arriving in daylight to take it in properly.
Why It Matters
One of the very few resorts in Thailand where every single accommodation — from the entry-level suite to the three-bedroom Presidential Villa — has its own private pool. Also home to Krabi's first hydrotherapy spa (The Rainforest), earned MICHELIN Two Key status in 2024 and 2025, and was the only Thailand property named in Fodor's Travel 2026 list of the 100 Most Incredible Hotels in the World.
Banyan Tree Krabi sits on tranquil Tubkaek Beach on the Andaman coast — 35 km from Krabi Town, backed by the lush forests of Mu Ko Phi Phi and Khao Ngon Nak national parks, with limestone karst towers jutting from the sea just offshore. All 72 suites and villas come with a private pool. Every single one. The design is contemporary Thai, drawing on local Naga dragon mythology — serpent scale patterns run across carpets and bathroom walls, and the hilltop lobby features an infinity-edged water feature that appears to drop into the earth. It's a striking place, and the Michelin Guide agreed: two keys in both 2024 and 2025.
Where You'll Stay
13 room types available
Beachfront Pool Villa
Same footprint as the Deluxe Garden Villa but positioned directly in front of the beach with Andaman Sea views. The private pool wraps on multiple sides. This is the go-to choice for couples who want maximum romance — direct beach access, a long private pool, and sea views from the terrace.
King · 204 sqmDeluxe Garden Pool Suite - King
The entry-level garden suite, though 'entry-level' is relative here. You get a full private plunge pool and jet pool, a spacious garden terrace ideal for outdoor dining, and the pitched hardwood ceiling and fan that define the resort's design language. Bathrooms feature sandy beige marble with naga water-art detailing. Garden views only — no sea.
King · 129 sqmDeluxe Garden Pool Suite - Twin
Same layout and footprint as the King version, configured with twin beds. Ideal for friends travelling together or parents with older kids who want their own beds. Private garden and pool are unchanged.
Twin · 129 sqmDeluxe Garden Pool Villa
The step up from suites to standalone villas. At 204 sqm, this one-bedroom garden villa offers considerably more outdoor space, with a wraparound-style private garden, plunge pool and jet pool. Decor runs to calm neutral tones with splashes of Andaman blue. Garden views rather than sea — the trade-off for more greenery and privacy.
King · 204 sqmPartial Ocean Pool Suite - King
Slightly more compact at 99 sqm, but the trade-off is ocean views. You get partial sea glimpses alongside the lush garden outlook, plus the same private pool and jet pool setup. An oval-shaped bathtub adds a romantic touch.
King · 99 sqmPartial Ocean Pool Suite - Twin
The twin configuration of the Partial Ocean suite. Same partial sea and garden outlook, private pool, and jet pool. Good for two friends who want an ocean glimpse without paying premium ocean-view pricing.
Twin · 99 sqmPremium Ocean Pool Suite - King
Similar footprint to the Partial Ocean suite but with full, unobstructed ocean views and a balcony — the step-up worth paying for if the sea view matters to you. A sumptuous double bed sits beneath the pitched hardwood ceiling, and the private pool terrace faces the Andaman Sea.
King · 99 sqmPremium Ocean Pool Suite - Twin
Twin-bed version of the Premium Ocean suite. Same full ocean views and balcony as the king, with private pool and jet pool. Good for two guests who want the sea outlook without the beachfront price.
Twin · 99 sqmPresidential Beachfront Pool Villa
The biggest unit on the property at 587 sqm. Three bedrooms (two king, one twin), beachfront pride-of-place position directly in front of the beach, a majestic long pool, jet pool, a full kitchen area, living room, and landscaped gardens. Maximum occupancy is 6. This is the resort's showpiece villa — designed for grand family or group vacations.
King, Twin · 587 sqmTwo-Bedroom Beachfront Pool Villa
At 387 sqm, this is the right choice for families or two couples travelling together who refuse to compromise on beachfront position. Two bedrooms (king + twin), three bathrooms, a large living room, landscaped gardens, a long pool and jet pool, and a private balcony. The villa illuminates dramatically at dusk.
King, Twin · 387 sqmTwo-Bedroom Ocean Pool Suite
At 213 sqm, this is where families or groups start to breathe properly. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, indoor and outdoor dining areas, and a private pool with jet pool — all with panoramic ocean views. One king bedroom and one twin. Maximum occupancy: 4 guests.
King, Twin · 213 sqmWellbeing Sanctuary Pool Suite - King
The wellness-specific offering — same 129 sqm as the Deluxe Garden suite but kitted out with bespoke wellbeing amenities, wellness-focused in-room rituals, and access to the resort's Wellbeing Sanctuary programme. Spacious garden and private pool. Good for guests booking the wellness package who want their suite to match the brief.
King · 129 sqmWellbeing Sanctuary Pool Suite - Twin
Twin version of the Wellbeing Sanctuary suite with the same garden, pool, and wellness-focused fit-out. Works well for two guests on a shared wellness retreat.
