9 Hornbills Tented Camp

Rediscover your inner child in a luxurious treehouse villa overlooking the lush jungle and a secluded beach. This luxury resort, set in the jungle canopy, makes the most of its beautiful natural surroundings and offers views to the sea and Phang Nga Bay.

Cross a suspended bridge to reach your duplex treehouse which boasts an open-plan lower floor with a private plunge pool, dining area, personal bar, double swing and day beds. The villas are decorated in a shabby-chic style, incorporating colours and textures from the jungle and the sea. Upstairs, in the bedroom, a balcony looks out over the treetops. Soak in a hammock bath or refresh yourself in a jungle shower.

Set beside a collection of inviting pools, the resort’s beachfront clubhouse includes a restaurant and bar. The menu features traditional Thai dishes and a selection of Mediterranean favourites created using local ingredients.

The spa offers guests a tranquil space to refresh body and mind, with calming treatments. Active guests can join a yoga session, have a go at sea kayaking and fishing, or head into the jungle for trekking and mountain biking.

With 56 private villas sprawled along the jungle-clad Koh Yao Noi coastline, the Six Senses Yao Noi offers an idyllic experience in a tropical island setting, enclosed by spectacular seascape scenes. By taking a sustainable approach to hospitality, this resort implements an Environmental and Social Sustainability Policy, focusing on protecting the environment, energy efficiency, water and waste management, noise control and air quality.

Choose from ocean, beachfront or hideaway villas; you can be perched on the cliffs with sweeping panoramas, hunkered down in the treeline just steps away from the white-sand beach, or secluded in the lush confines of tropical forest.

The dining experiences at this resort reflect its eco-conscious outlook, with menus designed around a farm-to-table initiative, ingredients homegrown, and many products made on-site or sourced from local suppliers to eliminate plastic packaging and the carbon footprint of deliveries. Guests can pick from three atmospheric restaurants, spread across the island, serving Western, Asian and international dishes, as well as two bars.

Relaxation is key to your stay here at Yao Noi, and each of the teak, traditional-style villas comes equipped with its own private infinity pool and terrace, perfect for soaking up the sun and al-fresco dining. Each villa is serviced by a personal butler, meaning you’ll never have to lift a finger – unless you want to. In that case, there’s a large range of activities available, including Thai kickboxing, rock climbing, water sports and a variety of cycling trails. The resort also caters well for children and promises an array of entertainment options to keep them happy throughout the holiday.
