We just completed our 4 night holiday at Six Senses Yao Noi. After visiting over 100 countries, I can say this place left a lasting impression on my wife and my 2 year old son. We loved every minute of our stay. The rooms were perfect and the views were beautiful. Shoutout to our wonderful G.E.M., Margie. She always made sure we were happy and even upgraded us to villa 54 on our last night! Everyday she would checkin on us and make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. She’s always accessible via WhatsApp. The staff are all so friendly and smiling. They genuinely want you to have an amazing holiday. They really go out of their way to make sure that you are comfortable, taken care of and have everything you need. We dined at chefs table, hilltop, living room and the dining room, and all the meals were amazing. Breakfast was great and special shout-out to Kwan, the manager at the living room. Everyday he would make sure to talk to us and make us his special cocktail. The ice cream shop was also amazing and we went multiple times a day! There is so many great things I can say about this place. My wife and son had an amazing time on both of our tours. We did the phi phi island and Prang Na bay tours. Both of them were private tours and the tour guides were great. The weather was amazing and the resort provided buggy’s to take us anywhere in the resort. Truly happy with our experience and would recommend this place to others.

A very good hotel - great service, beautiful jungle grounds and a stunning infinity pool. Food was great quality but we were unable to eat in the Thai restaurant (Dining Room) which was either full (first night) or closed (next three nights) which was a shame as it meant to eat Thai food we were in the general Living Room restaurant with families with young children -not what we wanted. The hotel also needs to ensure that it’s wine list is fully available. The only white/rose available by the glass in the Living Room restaurant was a chardonnay during our stay. When buying a bottle instead we were told all the lower value options except chardonnay were also not available and offered other far more expensive wines including a bottle that cost 6000 baht (nearly £150). These are small things, easily fixed that would have made the hotel offering much more consistent with the brand.

Few things were annoying: 1. Adjacent to our villa construction took place for all day, we had to complain multiple times for it to be stopped by the end of the day ! 2. We had late night flight, we did request late check out, we endded up staying at the reception are, no privacy , noisy small reception area which mostly used by the hotel managment, the resort does not have a pleasant place for gusts to stay for few hours!! 3. For people that are planning to enjoy the beach, the sea water is not clear, unplasent for swimming. During our 4 day stay mostly we had not seen gusts were seating at the beach.

Dear Israel, Firstly, thank you again for your recent stay with us and as well for the conveyed feedback. Please let me apologize again for the noise disturbance on your first afternoon, that was clearly not well planned from our side. In regards to the late checkout, as communicated to you, we were fully booked on your departure day and not able to offer you a late checkout in your villa. That said, we were offering one of our day use rooms to you to use until your departure, which you declined. We do also have a lounging area at our Hilltop restaurant as well as the living room, besides the library you choose. It is true that most of our guests are enjoying swimming in our hilltop pool as it offers a stunning view across the Krabi islands. Still a good number of our guests enjoy a swim at our Mai Thai beach. Hoping to welcome you back one day to show you a sunnier side of our small island. Kind regards, Stefan

Not the 5 star experience we were expecting
Came here for our honeymoon after being recommended by our wedding planner. It was very disappointing to say the least. Firstly the cleaning was not up to par. Even after we had a fly lay maggots in the room - we should have had a deep clean throughout but my wife found a dead cockroach and gecko egg when she pulled the blinds down (something our turndown service never did!). Our spa treatment (90 min massage) was one of the worst I ever had. I was bored throughout and wanted it to end. It’s definitely not the 5 star experience we were looking forward to. What I would say is that The Resort Manager, Alicia was really good at listening to our complaints and feedback at the end of our stay. Hopefully the feedback will help with future visitors.

Hotel with Amazing View
We stayed in one of the Panaramic Ocean View Villa. The view was amazing, looking at the Lime stone rocks. waking up to the sunrise everyday was spectacular. The staff was very helpful and accommodating, especially when we wanted to change our room. Our GEM Gwen did a wonderful job in looking after us and Bobo was very helpful in sorting out our rooms. Every day Gwen would visit us at breakfast to see how we was doing. The buffet breakfast had many choices with nice fresh fruit juices or smoothies to choose from. All staffs at six sense was extremely friendly and always helpful. The boat journey to Six Sense was a nice pleasant ride. Six sense even had wifi on their vehicle and boat transport! The wifi was fast and never had any problems with receptions all around the resort. It was a wonderful and relaxing stay at the Six Sense.

An absolute paradise
This resort met and exceeded all of our expectations - which were already very high. The staff was incredibly attentive to our needs - they seemed ahead of us at every step. The resort is extremely beautiful. Everything is as great as pictured if not better. The food and wine offerings were exceptionally good. The spa was outstanding. We did a private kayak tour that was beyond cool. We also picked up scooters outside the resort and rode around the island for a day. The island itself really takes pride in this resort. Our hideaway pool villa was spacious, modern, private and beautiful. There is an incredibly high level of detail here. We did have to chase a couple of geckos out of our room. So if this freaks you out too much, maybe you can leave paradise to the rest of us. To me, this was part of the experience even though I am quite frightened by anything that looks like a dinosaur even if very small. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

Heaven on Earth
We had the most amazing stay at Six Senses Yao Noi. Our GEM, Kuhn Ma, was wonderful and catered to our every need quickly and with kindness and grace. Our room was luxurious, comfortable, had amazing forest and sea views and most importantly for us was quiet and private. The food was exceptional, our favourites being the slipper lobster at The Living Room and the pork belly at The Dining Room. Chef Alex and his team deserve the highest of accolades. What an amazing place.

Third year running and this paradise getaway just get better and better. Effortless, the whole experience. The resort is simply beautiful with and emphasis on simple. It really is a magical place that blends into the natural surroundings. The staff are also the same, never intrusive but always attentive. I feel this resort can't be bettered (but so far every year has exceeded our previous high expectations here) which is why we will return next year and probably the next.

Beautiful resort, unforgettable stay
We recently stayed here as the final stop on our two week honeymoon around Thailand and it was worth waiting for! We booked a villa with an ocean view and couldnt have been more impressed with our beautiful infinity pool and view from every room in the villa. Everything was perfect and our GEM and all the attendants really strived for guest happiness without being overbearing at all. Delicious food and reasonably priced excursions...we did a half day island hopping tour on a private boat that was so worth it!

It was one of our best stays. The place, the service and the food was just brilliant. You'll have a GEM or butler that do all the communication. That makes ordering tables, tours very easy. He know what you already have done and what you like. We really enjoyed that a lot. The food was very good. And many options. Nice selection of wine too. We would love to go there again.

Lovely place with scenic view
This hotel does a great job of creating a relaxing honeymoon atmosphere combined with activities. I did not find the natural beach or surrounds to be that great. The view, however, is stunning. I would have liked a larger common pool from which to enjoy this view. This is best for honeymooners who prefer an eco-friendly stay and a mix of western comforts and island getaway.

obsessed with the rocky formations in the andaman
obsessed with the rocky formations in the andaman sea! so beautiful and peaceful from anywhere - the famed infinity pool (probably the most spectacular pool i've ever enjoyed), breakfast or bar, or the beaches. amazing service with your GEM (guest experience manager?), including any bookings for excursions, spa therapies, restaurant reservations and golfcart transportation. all the workers were extraordinarily pleasant and smiling. the food was all very tasty and varied choices, and included free ice cream! the villa was also very spacious, clean and beautiful with private pool. good a/c and wifi. my only small quibble would be that given it was a bit of low season (early-mid october), the diving excursions were not exactly as advertised on the website (and divemaster not very responsive via email pre-trip) - the only diving offered was off Ko Phi Phi and by speedboat, which we ended up having to book privately because there were no other interested divers, so a bit $$$$ but ultimately worth it for a fantastic trip. on a related speedboat note - i believe transport from phuket is more common and economical - we flew into Krabi and the only transport option was again the speedboat, which i believe was about $300 usd. in case that figures into your airport planning.

The Best stay ever
The hideaway pool villa is fantastic with a nice size and pavilion, so you can enjoy sun bath after swing or enjoy the tropical rain in the pavilion with some tea and music. yes they provide more than ten different teas and allowed you play your own music with the BGM system, that's amazing. The food and restaurant is good specially the Hilltop Reserve, luckily we can book a private dinner with the stunning seamless ocean view. Special thanks to our GEM Alice, she take good care with us during our stay that makes everything go smooth.
