One of the worst affected areas during the tsunami of 2004, Khao Lak has made an incredible recovery. Major hotels – including Le Meridien Khao Lak Beach and Spa Resort, the deluxe Sarojin and the sophisticated La Flora – have re-opened and are more stylish than ever, with new features and better facilities.
Around the area, shops, banks (and cash machines) plus photo shops, bars and new restaurants with tempting menus are all ready to welcome back visitors.
The Pimalai Resort & Spa is a 5 star luxury resort on the south west coast of Koh Lanta Yai, a quiet island in Krabi province, Thailand. The gravity defying hillside villas tumble down through virgin rainforest and the huge banyan tree shading the upper infinity pool is a testament to the developer’s foresight in preserving the naturally blessed setting.
