Set in the quiet inland area of Ao Nang, Palm Kiri Resort is a new and stylish property. The concept works much better here than it would packed into one of the main beachfront hotel strips, further inland among coconut groves with dramatic backdrops provided by Krabi's famous limestone karst cliffs. Comprising contemporary villas and rooms-some with direct pool access-designed beneath curved roofs that merge modern aesthetics with tropical materials, couples, families, or indeed any traveler preferring serenity and nature to noise should find this place ideal. A tranquil hideaway where hopefully someday soon again the loudest sound will be palm leaves rustling rather than beach bar bass.
