Soneva Kiri: Rooms, Photos, and Reviews

Soneva Kiri offers 33 one- to five-bedroom luxury villas that blend with the surrounding tropical jungle and beachfront. Each villa has its own private pool, a private terrace, and a personal electric buggy for exploring the 1,833 square meters of resort grounds. The Bayview Pool Villa Suite provides direct ocean views, while Beach Pool Villas include an outdoor bathtub set within a rainforest bathroom.

Seven on-site restaurants include Kruua Mae Tuk, serving authentic Thai cuisine from a set menu based on the day's market catch. The View restaurant offers a Nikkei tasting menu with Japanese and South American influences, and treepod dining hoists guests into the canopy where waiters deliver food via zip line. A glass-walled cheese and charcuterie room and an ice cream parlour with over 60 flavours are open daily at no extra charge.

The Soneva Stars Programme brings in Michelin-starred chefs and astronomers for live events, including guided stargazing through the observatory telescope. Cinema Paradiso is an open-air lagoon side movie screen with popcorn and drinks, while the resort's private conservatory offers nightly astronomy sessions. Water sports include diving at Koh Raet, snorkelling with bioluminescent plankton, canoeing, and windsurfing from the private coconut grove beach.

The on-site spa integrates traditional Thai treatments in a jungle setting, with a steam room, sauna, and outdoor bath available. Fitness classes including yoga are held daily, and the fitness centre offers personal trainer sessions and a variety of equipment. Spa packages include body scrubs, facials, and massage therapies such as the Tuksen massage.

The Den and Eco Den are supervised children's facilities with a kids' pool, indoor play area, and outdoor play equipment. Babysitting services and in-villa dining for children are arranged by the barefoot guardian assigned to each family. Board games, strollers, and baby safety gates are provided, and the resort offers themed dinner nights and movie nights suitable for all ages.
