SIX SENSES YAO NOI

Cuisine is fresh and seasonal, with ingredients mostly coming from the hotel’s own organic vegetable gardens. Lavish breakfasts begin the day at The Living Room, an all-day dining restaurant, before switching to alluring local Thai dishes. Alternatively, farm-to-table European influenced cuisine is served in the evening at the Dining Room. In the Den bar, relax on suspended day beds with a cocktail in hand or try the kaffir-lime leaf enhanced Gin Whisperer, with a snack of tempura prawns on the side. For added romance, book the Hilltop Reserve for a romantic dinner and overnight to watch the sun rise from the top of the resort in total privacy.

While it is easy to spend days simply gazing out to sea, it is possible to hire a bike, kayak the mangroves or jump on a boat to explore further afield. Beautifully designed PADI-certified diving trips to some of the finest sites in the area can be also arranged for marine adventurers. The resort is also able to organise truly rewarding excursions around the island where you can volunteer at local schools, help tidy the beaches and visit local fish and lobster farms. However you choose to spend your days here, your own personal Guest Experience Manager is always on hand to ensure your stay is a holiday to remember.
