Six Senses Yao Noi Reviews

Amazing service All the small details Great food Wonderful pool and beach Was nicer than a lot of four Seasons , Banyan tree and Ritz Carlton’s hotels. Will definitely try more locations

Everything is very good. The service is excellent. The view is very beautiful! The room is also very comfortable... except that there are a lot of mosquitoes. And the hotel is under renovation and the noise is sometimes loud.

The hotel's location and service truly embody wild luxury. Each villa is equipped with a swimming pool, the room is very spacious, and the main concept is natural and environmentally friendly. All configurations are humanized. The housekeeper Kate accompanied us from the beginning of our stay to the end, and customized activities for us. During our stay, it happened to be my daughter's birthday. She prepared a birthday cake and arranged the table attentively and meticulously. Thank you very much! Every employee of the hotel is very enthusiastic and meticulous. I will definitely come again when I have time in the future!

The hotel has beautiful scenery, good service, and the breakfast coffee is the highlight. It is normal that there are a lot of mosquitoes. I had a wonderful vacation. It is highly recommended.

The environment and service are impeccable, and the environmental protection is well done. There are no plastic products in the room. There are 57 villas in total. There are very few guests. It is really wild luxury

Good looking. Great service. Quiet. Lots of activities. 45 minutes by boat from the pier to the island The food is ordinary, the Indian food is quite distinctive, the overall is quite satisfactory, but it is not too expensive, so there is no problem The ecology and activities of the hotel are very good During the stay, I chose the local island hopping tour. It costs more than 1,000 yuan for two people. There are kayaks and snorkeling. I saw sea anemones. It was very interesting and the service was very good. I highly recommend it The local islands are also quite interesting. It’s very localized to go out by bike. The room facilities are slightly old and there are many mosquitoes but there are mosquito nets The spa is nice, relaxing, and the price is moderate

good ...

Fictional Mad Men ad man Don Draper once mused, “I keep going places and ending up where I’ve already been.” Even the most jaded of global jetsetters, however, will not feel this sentiment at the Six Senses Yao Noi. This property is sui generis. Back in 1998, Swiss developers Germing Frey saw something others had overlooked: a former rubber plantation on the untouched island Koh Yao Noi, one of the 42 islands in the scenic Phang Nga Bay, was perfectly situated to build a resort. First operated as a Kempinski property, in 2008 this property became the Six Senses Yao Noi. With no operations in the United States, many Americans are unfamiliar with this flagship IHG brand, although an upcoming outpost is in development in New York’s Hudson Valley. This is a resort situated in the jungle and biophilia abounds. Although it is easily accessible by boat, it is an unspoiled world apart from the mass tourism of Phuket. With this comes welcome residents like majestic Oriental Pied Hornbills (one almost alighted on me as I was splashing about in my villa’s personal pool) and menaces like nasty mosquitos. Although the property does mosquito abatement thrice weekly, I suggest you apply the provided repellant and keep the mosquito coils sparked up, or you may find tell-tale red welts accompanying you on vacation. In particular, if you choose to undertake the complimentary guided kayak tour of the mangrove forest (delightful), make sure you apply repellent to your ankles and sunblock to the tops of your feet (lesson learned) as you won’t be shod. And speaking of the jungle, there are a tremendous number of trees that shed leaves more quickly than a New England hillside in October. Yet you will never hear the unwelcome whine of a leaf blower or snarl of a chainsaw. All of the pathways are immaculately maintained by a team of gardeners who work tirelessly to keep the place pristine. To give a sense of the velocity of leaf shedding, on my departure day, the portion the path shared with an adjacent villa along with its branched path were swept leaf free while the groundskeepers waited to sweep the spur to my villa until closer to the arrival time of the next occupant lest they simply have to start sweeping all over again. The density of foliage is such that when the property describes the view of the “Hideaway Pool Villa” as “Jungle,” you should believe it. You might only be a couple yards from another villa or 50 yards from the ocean but you will not be able to see either of them. It is complete privacy. If a room with a view is important to you (and there are some rooms with boffo views, including the most spectacular of them all appropriately and simply named “The View”), make sure you reserve an appropriate room category. All of the one-to-four bedroom villas are spacious, vibrantly decorated and filled with a confounding collection of switches controlling everything from lighting to fans to air conditioning. On my first night I had to venture outside past th

From the moment we stepped out of our transfer at the Marina in Phuket we knew this was a special resort. We welcomed and waited for the speed boat transfer to the island. On arrival at Six Senses Ganesh our GEM greeted us and took us on a short tour of the resort.. then onto our villa. We had the 2 bedroom hideaway.. wow! Imagine if you were deserted on a tropical island, your own tree house.. like say Family Robinson or Cast Away … but it’s a luxury five star one. Nestled into the jungle, surrounded by nature. It was idyllic. Float in your own pool while tropical birds fly above you… We tried all the restaurants, actually loved Living Room. Food and service .. but all were lovely. Recommend taking the bikes out and also the mangrove kayaking, both free. Definitely book yourself into the spa, even just for a steam and sauna. These are private areas you can have .. they r amazing. We also had some treatments which were just lovely. Six Senses Koh Yai Noi is less of a resort and more of an experience. We felt truly blessed to be there. Loved every minute.

We were overwhelmed by the incredible experience we had at the Six Senses Yao Noi and to count with a GEM like Ganesh to assist us at all times has been very rewarding. We’ll always remember Ganesh’s kindness and sweetness! Make sure to visit this paradise on earth.

We had a fantastic time at Six Senses which was made even more special by our host Ganesh who on arrival showed us around the complex, arranged trips and meet all our needs during our stay which made our holiday memorable We will definitely return sometime in the future

Gorgeous location and outstanding service by all staff! Our GEM, Ganesh looked after us beautifully anticipating our dinner preferences to our experiences. The restaurants are amazing! Please take time to partake in all 3 of them. Ganesh, thank you so very much for everything!

What can I say? This resort hotel is truly terrific! We stayed at villa 41 with a spectacular view and also very private villa Plus a good size private pool. Friendly staff and authentic local cuisine at Thai Kitchen "Nithan" and The Hill Top are memorable. This hotel has the best breakfast buffets we ever had. The private dinner at our villa are amazing, we can tell that they worked so hard on it in order to make our time special. we would have loved to get to know more places and do more activities during our stay. But unfortunately it was too short stay. However, we would still like to take the opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to the entire team Especially Miguel!! Who looked after us through all this fantastic trip. We hope you keep up the great work and be your amazing selves, so that your future guests can experience the hospitality you have showed us. The farewell at the hotel pier make me wanted to come back and stay longer. So, we plan to coming back and stay at least 2 weeks next time we visit, since there are a lot more things to explore. We definitely recommend this hotel and will come back!!

After many years of hearing about Six Senses, we finally experienced our first stay at Six Senses Koh Yao Noi—and it was beyond anything we could have imagined. We stayed in a stunning pool villa with breathtaking views that felt like a postcard come to life. From the moment we arrived, every detail exceeded our already high expectations. The food was exquisite, the massages deeply rejuvenating, and every element of the experience radiated effortless perfection. There truly are no words to fully capture the magic of this place and its incredible people. You need to come and experience for yourself what Six Senses Koh Yao Noi represents: a redefinition of modern luxury that is as faultless as it is sensual. What a place!
