ÀNI Thailand: A Tropical Paradise For Those in Need of A Secluded Escape
An exclusive and unfettered luxurious escape awaits at ÀNI Thailand, overlooking the dazzling Andaman Sea
Positioned on the idyllic island Koh Yao Noi’s most coveted location, overlooking a seemingly endless score of blue, ÀNI Thailand offers a slice of paradise. With a string of stunning properties, ÀNI – the world’s first collection of private resorts – offers all-inclusive holidays in the most beautiful and diverse corners of the world, from Sri Lanka, Thailand and Anguilla, to the Dominican Republic.
The brand’s philosophy is to provide guests with top-tier personalised service (coupled with a healthy dose of local hospitality), unspoiled nature, and the exceptional facilities of five-star resorts, within a consummately private setting of remarkably designed estates.
While private travel is more appealing than ever before, signifying the ultimate symbol of luxury, in today’s world there is a shift in perspective. Travellers are not just looking for the best in luxury, but instead, there is a soaring demand for luxury with purpose; a genuine desire to seek authentic and experiential travel, where the goal to give back is a priority.
ÀNI, a unique philanthropic venture, offers both luxury and purpose. In 2010, Tim Reynolds, an enthusiastic arts patron and co-founder of thriving Wall Street trading giant Jane Street Capital, simultaneously founded ÀNI Private Resorts and the non-profit ÀNI Art Academies organisation – a one-of-a-kind, global collection of remarkable private resorts that help empower local communities through immersive art schools. Every resort fully funds the ÀNI Art Academy in its area.
The founder’s hospitality vision is built on the ethos that togetherness is the greatest luxury. The expansive resort solely hosts a single group at a time – from multi-generation getaways and group vacations to intimate events, milestone celebrations and corporate retreats.
The property’s architecture draws inspiration from the majestic temples of northern Thailand and exudes pure elegance. The design is sophisticated with a focus on harnessing the natural surroundings. Expansive living, dining, and entertainment areas are positioned around the sparkling infinity pool. Offering spectacular seascapes, landscaped gardens and sun-drenched afternoons, the resort accommodates up to 20 individuals across two ocean villas and two family villas, each with two guestrooms, and four private pool suites. There is direct access to the sandy beach overlooking the turquoise waters and limestone islands of Phang Nga Bay.
A stellar team of 22 staff members fulfils every wish and curates every detail, from special dining, cultural and wellness experiences to activities and exploration of the region, in order to ensure a bespoke experience that defies expectations.
Food connoisseurs are more than well catered for with a culinary team which is available around the clock – taking into consideration factors such as dietary requirements, wellness goals, and personal preferences. Whether it’s authentic Thai cuisine made with recipes passed down through generations, or menus from different culinary destinations – Japan, India, or Italy – ÀNI’s expert private chefs make this an effortless possibility.
With picturesque scenery, design and tailored experiences, the resort radiates exclusivity in its very finest form.
