Where would you find a place that “exists in time out of time”? Chances are, this pretty little resort on Khao Lak – which has already won a cabinetful of travel awards by fawning media outlets – is the ticket: a 10-acre beachfront gem precious enough to call its concierge an “imaginer”, but real enough to trumpet its secluded, romantic location.

Asian-inspired design also incorporates natural elements including an ancient ficus tree and a lotus pond. Rooms are similarly naturally inspired, reinforced by plenty of wood and fronted by private garden terraces. Couples’ baths, rainfall showers and plunge pools are also included in each room – a thoughtful bonus.

Ficus – an all-occasion restaurant named for the “spiritual heart” of the resort under which it is situated – seats 58 and serves a mélange of international, Asian and Italian meals. The seaside Edge restaurant, set right on the beach, takes advantage of the fresh seafood from the Andaman Sea.
