About the Hotel

On the island of Koh Kood, a large and undeveloped tropical wilderness 50 miles off the Thai mainland, Soneva Kiri is a far cry from resorts in commercialized Phuket or Koh Samui. Rustic-chic villas, made sustainably from recycled wood to resemble the stilted fishing villages of the neighboring countryside, are some of the largest in the world. Serpentine private infinity pools surround sunken pillow lounges overlooking the ocean from a vantage point high in the hills. If ever you’ve dreamed of living in a tree house, this is your destination.

Reviews for Soneva Kiri

magical and mindful luxury retreat in beautiful nature – Best Stay in Thailand!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

My stay at Soneva Kiri was extraordinary—a peaceful, luxurious, and deeply immersive experience from arrival to depature. The resort is loacted on the small island of Koh Kood, whoch is not only one of the most beautiful islands I've visted while travelling Thailand but also one of the less known once that for sure have the most beautiful beaches in all of Thailand. And this resort offers more than just five-star comfort—it offers a connection: to nature, to Thai culture, and to really relax. From the warm welcome to our farewell, we felt genuinely cared for. You will have your personal "barefoot guardian", a host for the stay, ensured that every detail was taken care of seamlessly. The villa itself was huge, beautifully designed with sustainability in mind, and came with all the comforts you could need—plus those small touches that surprise and delight. Daily housekeeping was discreet yet thoughtful, always adding a sense of care. One of the standouts was the exceptional food. Whether we were dining at the main restaurant, enjoying traditional Thai dishes at Kruua Mae Tuk, or having fresh coconuts and grilled seafood at the beachside eatery, every meal was delicious and carefully crafted. The selection and variety were impressive. And As a coffee lover I also enjoyed the coffee especially during breakfast very much! We especially loved the freedom to explore the resort with our personal golf cart, allowing us to discover quiet spots, the beaches, and the well-equipped gym. The private beach was stunning—secluded, peaceful, and perfect for a swim or a relaxing afternoon. What made Soneva Kiri truly unique were the experiences: dining high in the trees at the Treepod, an unforgettable snorkeling excursion, a tranquil yoga session, and even spa treatments that left us fully recharged. Each activity felt meaningful, never rushed or commercial which normally comes with stays in Resorts. As its of personal intrest we also appreciated the resort’s commitment to sustainability and mindful luxury—something that is clearly embedded in the way everything is run, from architecture to food sourcing to how the staff engages with guests and how they take care of their own garden and waste management. In summary: this was the highlight of our entire trip to Thailand. If you’re looking for a luxurious yet grounded escape where nature, comfort, and experience blend into something magical—Soneva Kiri is the place.

A Memorable Experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

WOW! We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days at Soneva Kiri. You definitely need more time than that to truly take in all the resort has to offer. The view from our Bay View villa was spectacular! Our barefoot guardian, Gift, was awesome. The whole staff knew our names and were very attentive. We chose not purchase the half or full board plans and just pay as we go. This worked out great for us. Breakfast is included for everyone, along with the ice cream, chocolate, cheese and meat rooms. We ate at The View, Tuk's Kitchen, and Treepod dining. All of the food was great! We explored So Sandy beach and did the complimentary snorkeling which was fun. We can't wait to go back and also explore other Soneva properties.

Stunning sunsets & made for quality time

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Great resort if you’re looking to recharge, soend quality time with a friend, family or partner. It’s the slow life & barefoot luxury. Excellent service, food, views, stunning sunsets. Each villa gets their own buggy, they have a telescope and a chocolate room which were real highlights

Paradise found

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

A Paradise Like No Other – Soneva Kiri From the moment we arrived at Soneva Kiri—flying in on their private plane and landing on the island—it felt like stepping into a dream. Our villa was a private sanctuary, surrounded by lush jungle with a pool and direct beach access. Waking up to the sound of the waves, with nothing but nature around, was pure bliss. The barefoot luxury concept made everything feel effortless—no pretense, just comfort and serenity. Service was impeccable, with our Barefoot Guardian (Ikkyu) anticipating every need. Dining was unforgettable—treepod dining above the jungle, fresh farm-to-table meals, and unlimited access to their famous Chocolate Room and Ice Cream Parlor (yes, unlimited!). Beyond luxury, Soneva Kiri is about experience—stargazing, overwater cinema, hidden beaches, and a deep connection to nature and sustainability. It’s a place that lingers in your heart long after you leave. We’re already dreaming of coming back.

Location 10/10. Resort 6/10

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

The resort itself isn't up to the standard of Four Seasons Koh Samui or Six Senses Koh Yao Noi. The villas have past their sell-buy date and wouldn't rate 4-stars elsewhere. The service was patchy and getting relevant resort information from staff was very hit and miss. What is good about this place is the location, and I assume that when it was ranked #8 Best Beach Resort in the World this is what swung it - without which it wouldn't rank in the top 50. Easily one of the best beaches in Thailand, and where they take their promotional pictures. For my money better even than Koh Lipe, albeit a 3-minute speed boat away from the main resort which has no beach and is rocky. The food is good and comparable to Four Seasons. A word of praise for two outstanding members of staff, Khun Chelsea and Khun Spy, who really went above and beyond and without whom I would have docked another star.
