Aava Resort and Spa

Aava Resort & Spa is a Scandinavian resort built by a young Scandinavian couple who fell in love with Khanom during their backpacking travels to Thailand. They felt that Khanom was beautiful and untouched by the mass tourism that they had experienced in so many other parts of Thailand. From a personal perspective, we all love the area, too, as it reminds us of Thailand of 20-plus years ago when the beaches are beautiful and untouched, and the people were genuinely interested in seeing you.

The resort sits on beautiful Nadan beach, a 9km stretch of pristine golden sands and clear blue water and offers 28 luxury villas and suites and is perfect for couples, families and anyone looking to discover a new part of Thailand. The resort was influenced and designed by one of Scandinavia’s top designers along with a Thai architect and offers unique Scandinavian quality and elegance, complimented by traditional Thai influence.

Khanom is now becoming one of the new upcoming tourist destinations in Thailand yet still retains its beautiful untouched beaches, as well as clear blue waters, swaying coconut palms, lush green landscape, and limestone mountains. It is also home to the rare pink dolphins which are frequently seen in the Khanom area on boat trips which can be arranged by Aava. Khao Luang and Khao Sok National Parks are also within easy access of Khanom and a great option for a day trip, all of which can be booked with Aava’s very own onsite tour company. The main industry in the area is fishing and farming; the local markets and fishing villages remain authentic, vibrant and colourful. and where smiles are truly genuine!

Khanom is within easy access of Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat Airport (approx. 60 to 90 minutes) with regular flights each day from Bangkok. Koh Samui is also within easy access by boat (90 minutes) and so offers a great twin-centre option.

For spa and wellness enthusiasts Aava is also a great choice where guests can relax and pamper themselves at the Aava Spa, with a choice of traditional massages, body scrubs and wraps; there are a variety of daily wellness activities including yoga, Pilates, meditation, stretching and Tai Chi as well as healthy eating options. Personalised wellness programmes are also available on-site, and yoga retreat packages are bookable in advance.
