Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas, a new resort on the lush Koh Yao Yai island, Thailand’s last unexplored paradise. The resort is ideally situated to enjoy spectacular sunrises, and many of the opulently spacious villas and suites give guests a front-row seat, or even pool, to enjoy the spectacle. There are of course plenty of activities closer at hand, with a dedicated fitness centre and the Anantara spa & wellness suites, offering massages and other tempting treatments. For the more active, the tranquil sea that hosted that morning’s sunrise becomes a hive of activity with water sports and snorkelling, calming down once more in the evening with beach barbecues and sunset cocktails. If you have really worked up an appetite the beach restaurant offers a variety of local and western favourites, or there is Omakase house for a more sophisticated evening dining experience. You might want to take advantage of an in-room dining experience for a more intimate evening. It’s not just the grown-ups who will be making a splash, with a family pool featuring slides for the older kids and a shallow toddler pool for little ones. The kids’ club, is packed with fun activities, offering a welcome respite for parents who may have been up well before that spectacular sunrise. Although only a 45-minute boat ride from the Phuket Marina, where you will check-in, this island paradise offers the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.
