"It’s all about the views at this hotel, which is on the Krabi coastline and has astonishing vistas of the Andaman Sea. Here, 54 sumptuous suites and villas sit amid tropical gardens and serpentine moats, but the extensive grounds have a downside: The sprawling property is perhaps more easily explored on wheels, and hotel staff will happily chauffeur you in the resort's golf carts. Rooms are Dubai-level lavish, with interiors of cream granite and white linen. The bathrooms have lotus-shaped sinks and outdoor tubs, and most rooms have massive beds." - CNT Editors, Betsy Blumenthal
