Phulay Bay a Ritz Carlton Reserve: Hotel Deal of the Day
Somewhere beyond the limestone cliffs of Krabi, where emerald jungles meet the Andaman Sea, a hidden paradise awaits. Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, is not merely a place to stay—it’s a world to step into, a secluded sanctuary where luxury unfolds in harmony with Thailand’s breathtaking natural beauty. From the moment you arrive, passing through towering walls and candle-lit pathways, the resort whispers an invitation to slow down, immerse, and indulge.
A Reserve Unlike Any Other
Phulay Bay, the world’s first Ritz-Carlton Reserve, is an intimate hideaway of just 54 villas and pavilions, each designed with grand, oversized spaces that seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor living. Thai architect Lek Bunnag’s vision blends Thai, Middle Eastern, and Moroccan influences, crafting an atmosphere that is both opulent and serene. Step onto your private veranda, sink into a plush lounge bed, and let the sea breeze wash over you. Lavish amenities abound—rainforest showers, deep soaking tubs, and 24-hour butler service ensure that every moment is perfection.
The Call of Adventure
Hike up Naga Mountain for sweeping views of the islands scattered across the Andaman Sea, or set out for a day of discovery at the Emerald Lagoon, where the water shifts from sapphire to jade under the Thai sun. Paddle through mangrove forests by kayak, or board a traditional longtail boat bound for Hong Island, a pristine beach paradise accessible exclusively to Phulay Bay guests.
Cultural Immersion & Wellness
Beyond its natural wonders, guests can engage with Thailand’s rich cultural traditions. Experiment with making the delicate art of Lotus Floral arrangements or craft a Pandan Leaf bouquet to take home. For those seeking tranquility, sunrise yoga sessions on the beach and candlelit evening meditations offer a chance to reconnect with mind and body.
A Feast for the Senses
The resort’s four dining venues promise a feast for the senses. Start your day with the ocean breeze and a lavish breakfast at Jampoon, where flavors range from tropical fruit platters to decadent Thai pancakes. Lae Lay serves the freshest seafood against a backdrop of the Andaman Sea, while Jampoon offers an international menu in an elegant setting. Sri Trang celebrates the bold flavors of traditional Thai cuisine, best enjoyed family-style. As the sun sets, Chomtawan Bar beckons with handcrafted cocktails and uninterrupted ocean views.
The Spa
A haven of rejuvenation, the spa at Phulay Bay blends contemporary elegance with traditional Thai influences. Eleven treatment rooms, including outdoor terraces, offer quiet views of the lagoon. The extensive menu incorporates Thai, Asian, and European therapies, ensuring a holistic approach to relaxation. Guests can unwind in the heated vitality pool with water massage jets, detoxify in the separate steam and sauna rooms, or practice mindful movement in the wellness studio, which offers yoga, Pilates, and Muay Thai boxing training. Whether seeking deep relaxation or invigorating renewal, the spa at Phulay Bay is a retreat within a retreat.
