Six Senses Wellness Resort Krabey Island

Beautiful hotel isolated in a private island just 5 minutes by speed boat from the mainland. Very nice staff always with a smile. The hotel has 40 villas with simple but cozy decor and beautiful private pools with a nice view. Small and rocky beach but with amazing warm sea water. All the food from the breakfast till diner in both of the hotel restaurants is delicious. Wines are a bit expensive. Beautiful spa and gym.

We stayed for 4 nights in December at Six Senses Krabey Island and we loved it!!! The place is truly beautiful, the atmosphere is very serene (own private island, just 40 something villas, Six Senses ethos with a focus on sustainability, luxurious but laid back...), the amenities are great (swimming pool with views over the sunset, spa, yoga, beach...), the water around the island is pristine (superb snorkelling over the reef just a few meters away from the beach, paddle board, kayak), the service was fantastic (very friendly and efficient), the villas (lots of space, some with direct access to the sea) blend well into the nature etc. We had been to Six Senses Yao Noi in Thailand 2 years ago - which we loved - and we were even more blown away by Krabey Island. We loved it so much that we didn't feel the need to be venturing too much outside and we did only one excursion whilst staying there (a jungle walk on the nearby island, very pleasant). To be fair, we were also lucky to come before the Christmas high season and the resort was far from full, so we sometimes felt we had the place to ourselves! But arguably, there are not a lot of villas anyway and plenty of space for everybody, even at full capacity. My only small criticism is re: the variety of food (and maybe also the quality sometimes): only a short menu and very similar between the various restaurants/options, hence a lack of options if one stays more than a few days.

Five of us stayed for 7 nights during a three week tour of Vietnam and Cambodia. The whole experience was excellent. The villas, the food, the spa, but particularly the staff. It is probably not right to single out staff but Sokkim our Gem looked after every one of our needs. Navi who took us on a sunset cruise and a picnic worked very hard for us. In the dining room Hainah? was particularly helpful and friendly with a super sense of humor. Jess was also very helpful. One suggestion would be to put some steps down into the sea off the boardwalk at the beach, as it is particularly difficult to go snorkeling, (which was excellent) from the beach and through the seaweed. One small irritation. Bottled water is free and plentiful in the villas, on the beach, and round the pool. But in the dining room it is charged for. It is about 5$ a bottle plus service charge, plus tax, and nobody asks you wether you want it or not and they just keep pouring it. In the overall cost per night it is small, but why not include it in the room rate. Many of the guests found it a niggle, and it is so unnecessary and no reason for it.

I recently stayed at the six senses krabey island and had the best vacation! The setting on the island is absolutely stunning with villas discretely nestled into the rocky jungle and a beautiful view of the sea. The villas were fantastic and extremely spacious and comfortable with modern designs and amenities. The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. We particularly enjoyed the delicious Cambodian and fusion meals prepared by chef Todd and his team of Khmer chefs, served by the amazingly friendly staff including JB, a waiter at Tree, one of several restaurants at the resort. Another memorable experience was spending a day traveling to the nearby island for a jungle walk and relaxing time at a private beach including snorkeling. The day ended with an incredible sunset cruise, all lead by the amazing Sarun. As always with Six Senses, the commitment to sustainability and the community around the resort is wonderful to see and makes the vacation even more enjoyable. I couldn’t recommend this beautiful, serene resort enough.

The time we spent at the Six Senses Krabey Island has been the best vacation ever (and we travel extensively for business and leisure). It was so great that we have rescheduled all our flights (4 flights!) to stay longer than we had originally booked. The resort is heaven, but what makes it extraordinary are the people working there. The General Manager, Ateeb, is exceptional in making the customers feel welcome, finding the right balance of being present and caring, without being invasive; the Head of the Spa, Rachel, has a wonderful team who makes you feel special every day (and Rachel is a wonderful person too!!); Sokkim, our GEM, made our experience unique and we will be eternally grateful! The Kitchen/Restaurants teams have accommodated at each meal all our requests (food allergies, things we like, things we don't, etc.); and the Kids' Club Team has been superlative with our kids who cried for leaving the resort (and this does not happen often!). Thanks to the full team who made our stay so special, we will always have fond memories of all of you!!!!

Having been touring Cambodia this was our last location to re- charge with some luxurious pampering and boy did this place deliver. The staff were very focussed on ensuring that all our needs were taken care of and made a real effort to get to know us as guests. The villas are like something from a James Bond movie - very beautiful with modern technology - you definitely feel like you’ve found somewhere very special. The Spa is well worth visiting, we tried a few treatments and felt like we were walking on air. A special mention to Dr Annan at the Spa who put us through a health screening for physical and emotional well being and worked with us during our stay advising on small lifestyle changes that will benefit us when back at home in the UK . Can’t wait to come back

Spending some days of my vacations on Six Senses Krabey Island was just the best decision of the year! Everything in this hotel is just perfect! Can you imagine: a private island with this beautiful architetural masterpicece, wonderful villas (all the villas have a private pool!), many activities focused on the relaxation of the body and mind (the spa is just amazing!), great food and wonderfull staff. I was so sad to leave this place! What an unforgettable experience!

I mean it’s on its own island . Everyone should add this place onto their bucket list . A must visit once in your life , more if you could afford it . Pretty pricey but it’s worth every penny . Adventure begins with your own private boat ride to this secluded island that houses only the resort . Thé villas are an architectural masterpiece . Id love to one day own a home with that exact style and layout . All glass so you have views of the pool and lush gardens from every angle and point . The rooms are ultra modern being controlled from the tablet which I loved . This resort is ridiculously amazing . Can’t say it enough . And the food was beyond delicious . Dreamy stay . I’ll never forget it

Forget about everything you have ever seen before and imagine. Imagine a resort on a private island where every single private villa has its pool and the most modern, luxurious and exclusive facilities. Imagine a place made in order to respect the environment, in the middle of a wild island, surrounded by dreamy tropical plants and full of lovely people with endless smiles and love to give to you. Imagine a dining offer exclusively made of fresh, healthy, delicious meals that mix the asian cuisine with the european one. Imagine an exquisite breakfast in a dreamy place each morning, water sports, wellness programs on demand and the most amazing spa you ever saw. Imagine activities like an Alchemy Bar and treatments that will make you touch the sky. Imagine all that and think that this hotel has it all... and even more. Special thanks to Martin, the most amazing host i have ever seen and also to each single person that took care of me and my dad during my stay.

Sad to leave this oasis. Impeccable service, delicious food, accommodations are perfection, the spa and gym and pool are simply the best. Mr. Ateeb, welcomes you as if it’s your home. Chef Mark will make whatever you’d like (thank you for the chocolate souffles). I can’t wait to return to this location as well as experience the rest of the Six Senses portfolio.
