Islândia Eco Village Resort: A Nature-Immersive Retreat on an Island in Krabi Province
At times... we need a break after being exhausted from work. Escaping to recharge, replenish energy, and relax both body and mind in a peaceful place close to nature is an appealing option!
Krabi is a popular tourist destination, not only for its beautiful natural attractions but also for the interesting lifestyles of the local communities. Experiencing both relaxation and learning about the local way of life would be a truly enriching experience.
I recommend staying at Islanda Eco Village Resort, a nature-style resort located on Koh Klang Island in Krabi Province. This beachfront resort offers stunning 180-degree ocean views, stretching as far as the eye can see. The peaceful atmosphere makes it an ideal place to relax and unwind. The resort features traditional Thai houses with a touch of local fishing village style. The houses are built on stilts with high thatched roofs, exposed concrete walls for a clean and airy feel, and modern furniture for added comfort. Islanda Eco Village Resort provides all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay.
Islanda Eco Village Resort is easily accessible, conveniently located near Krabi Town. A short 5-minute boat ride from Thara Pier followed by a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride will get you there. Alternatively, the resort offers a complimentary pick-up service from Thara Pier, transporting guests directly to the accommodation without any additional charges.
Upon arrival, guests are warmly welcomed by staff with a refreshing natural herbal welcome drink.
Islanda Eco Village Resort offers accommodation in three distinct zones:
1. Ocean Front Bungalow: This beachfront accommodation offers stunning 180-degree ocean views from private balconies. Guests can relax and enjoy reading, sipping drinks, or soaking in the outdoor bathtubs while admiring the breathtaking scenery.
2. The Ocean Family Bungalow is the next accommodation zone after the first zone. It is suitable for families because it has balconies that can be connected to each other and is only a few steps away from the swimming pool.
3. Ocean Breeze Bungalow is the furthest zone of the resort, slightly elevated compared to other zones. It is surrounded by nature and offers a full range of amenities.
Let's take a look inside the accommodation. This is an Ocean Family Bungalow. Before climbing the stairs, there are small jars filled with water for washing your feet, in the traditional Thai style.
Upon ascending to the upper level, guests will discover that the accommodation is divided into two distinct sections: the bedroom and the bathroom and dressing area. Let us first explore the bedroom, which features a comfortable bed, a television, a DVD player, air conditioning, and other amenities designed to enhance relaxation and enjoyment.
Stepping out onto the patio or balcony, you'll find a bench where you can recline and enjoy the ambiance. Just beyond, you'll discover the swimming pool.
Stepping into the bathroom and dressing area, one is immediately struck by the spaciousness. A wide array of amenities is readily available.
The most striking feature of the bathroom is its open-air design. In addition to showering, guests can also enjoy a traditional Thai bathing experience by using a large earthenware jar, offering a refreshingly unique way to cool down.
A Tranquil Morning at Islanda Eco Village Resort
Waking up at Islanda Eco Village Resort unveils a serene atmosphere. The early morning hours offer a unique spectacle as the receding tide reveals a vast expanse of the seabed, teeming with marine life. This is the perfect time to witness the local way of life, as fishermen venture out to gather shellfish for their livelihood.
The island also features a community open to visitors, offering engaging activities and attractions such as batik weaving and miniature model boat building.
Adjacent to the swimming pool is the dining area, where we will take a look at the breakfast buffet. In addition to being a place to enjoy meals, it also has a bar that serves drinks. This area remains open until late at night.
In addition to breakfast, there are many other menus available for you to drop by and enjoy as you wish.
The guest rooms are equipped with DVD players and a selection of movies for guests who wish to relax and watch a film during their stay.
Finally, we visit the most popular swimming pool, especially during the hot daytime. You can relax and enjoy the sea breeze or take a dip in the pool to cool down.
The swimming pool at Islanda Eco Village Resort is located at the front, right next to the beach, allowing you to soak in the water while gazing at the sea and sky.
Another highlight not to be missed is the evening hours on the beach in front of the accommodation. This is a beautiful spot to watch the sunset on Koh Klang, without having to walk far.
As the sun sets, casting a golden glow across the horizon, the evening sky transforms into a breathtaking spectacle.
Nestled amidst serene natural surroundings, the Islanda Eco Village Resort offers a tranquil retreat for those seeking a getaway immersed in nature's embrace. The resort provides an opportunity to experience the authentic lifestyle of local villagers, creating an unforgettable experience that will leave a lasting impression.
