Remote but accessible aptly describes the Thai island of Kood, on which Soneva Kiri is set amidst the lush tropical rainforest, off the south east coast of the Gulf of Siam. International guests are personally met on arrival at Bangkok airport and transferred to the resort s own airplane for the one hour flight to the Soneva Kiri airfield. From the air, the beauty of untouched Thailand and Koh Kood, with its white sandy beaches is immediately evident.
