Elegant beach resort on Thailand's Andaman coast

• Traditional by design: The chalets and villas feature intricate carved woodwork that harks back to the Thailand of old. Offering plenty of space to unwind, each one is furnished with dark wood furniture; Oriental villas are surrounded by gardens, while Siam chalets offer a balcony with lush, green views.

• Eastern wellness: Chiva Spa features a broad variety of wellness therapies that make full use of traditional Thai ingredients like soothing aloe vera, nourishing coconut oil, invigorating coffee beans and more. A sauna room, herbal steam room and gym complete the spa's facilities. Of course, you can always opt for the classic Thai massage.

• Brilliant beaches and seductive sunsets: In addition to having Khao Lak Beach right at your doorstep, you'll enjoy a wealth of dining options at the nearby village. On the beach, you'll find a variety of bars that are excellent spots for catching the sunset. Further inland, along the main road, there are restaurants serving local specialties, fresh seafood and even Japanese cuisine.
