This looks like true luxury - amazing to see the quality you’re able to get at those prices (loved those pop ups in the edit)! I would absolutely love to be there right now
That looks like heaven, it makes me excited and so sad to watch this. I was extremely excited for Thailand 😭 love the 360 views of the islands. Your room is looking incredible, with a balcony with a lounge and a view too?! And then massage? Omg. 😬 the prices are music to my ears. 🤗
Indeed! This was our first 5 star resort. We normally can't afford it but wanted to try it since prices were low. So glad we did! It was a great experience!
That resort looks amazing - definitely somewhere I'd love to stay. Great tips about the boat schedule, and thanks for doing all the hard work to see if these 5* resorts are worth it! Such a sacrifice you make for us 🤣🤣🤣
😬 sorry that you had to hire a private boat to transport your bike 🙈 That sandbank is so cool, would be great to take that walk to the other island during low tide. Love the 360 views 🥰 Your hotel is absolutely amazing 🤩 so luxurious! But the balcony though, with a tub! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t believe the price, it’s so low, even for us South Africans! Love your red swimsuit, made for a stunning thumbnail 😊 And oh my goodness... golden oil!!! I have to go to that spa one day!
Yes, I can highly, highly recommend this place! We had a great experience. Naturally the price isn't always this low, but if you can get a discount you will definitely be blown away!
While watching I was trying to formulate a comment. You spoke of being 'overwhelmed' and the word luxurious passed by. Amazing views. Incredible sights too precious for words. What a paradise. I think this will go down as one of your treasured moments in time. Wow, oh and wow again! 👏🙏❤️👍🎥🌷🙋♀️
This video made me want to visit this island and resort! A great tip about transporting the motor bike. The view from the balcony in your room really was amazing! The lounge chairs at the pool were so cute. I like that they have paddleboards to use too!
Wow, my first thoughts were - this looks like paradise. And the room is sooo nice with all that details, really looks like a 5-star hotel. And those views from your room and breakfast were amazing. Looked like you two had the hotel for yourselves. Can't believe that price.
🤣 yeh it looks very hard trying out those 5* resorts for us all! Those boat sun beds looked great fun. The massage prep looked fab, is it an Elemis spa? Love it when accommodation has paddle boards, kayaks or bikes or whatever to use. Great job paddle boarding Kendra, really thought it was you that was about to fall in then David did! We really cannot wait to visit Thailand when we get a chance. Low occupancy rates are awesome but wow less than $50 for that place is incredible!
It was the hotel's spa. No special brand. Santhiya really offers a lot of activities. You really don't have to leave the resort at all. And believe me I fell in plenty on that paddle board we just didn't get it on camera.
Wow amazing, love the ride, beautiful sea..... great beach, the 360 view is awesome, so serene.....walking on beach is so fun such a nice hotel, great ambience 👌
Omg what a dream hotel to stay at! I wish I can be transported there right now. Everything from the beautiful decorations in the room to the balcony with the outdoor tub and that pool with the view!! So nice. I really can’t wait to travel again! 😊
Thankfully, we haven't run out of things to do in Thailand yet, but we totally understand that desire to get back out there! The world is so big and there's so much more to see!
That infinity and the waterfall pool was incredible 👍 . Loved the island tour ... Nice place to venture out from Phuket .. !! That 2500 baht for a private boat was a bit costly but definitely worth the island experience
@@LucasWorldTravel Thank you for answer, we are new on you tube. Please can you tell us , how you make the titles in the video and the bell. We want to learn more , we use iMovie. We wan to show the people how they can be lucky and satisfied. Hope we can help :)
WOW! Santhiya Resort is def going on our bucket list!! The view from your balcony was breathtaking and for that cheap - we are there! Sorry about the bike mishap but at least the destination was worth it :)
The view with breakfast was amazing and the food looked great. It does look like a hard life. It is awesome they have paddle boards I really want to try that too :) Adding another island to our list :)
Amazing hotel! Taking bath on the balcony with such a view should be very relaxing :) Thanks for a good tip about motorbike transporting. That's a pity you've had such an expensive experience.
Hi, my family will need to do a similar journey - stay in Santhiya first and then move on to Krabi. Can you please share how and where you hired the private boat to return back to Krabi? Are they easy to get on the spot or need to be arranged/booked in advance? Thank you so much for sharing this info - it is near impossible to find solid info about Koh Yao Yai transportation.
Santhiya should be able to arrange one for you. However it’s probably cheaper to go directly to Klong Hia Pier and book directly. You don’t need to make reservations to go private. They will pair you with whoever is available when you go private. They also have shared ferries that you can call to find out the schedule.
@@LucasWorldTravel Thank you sooo very much for sharing this. It really helps tremendously. I LOVE all your travel videos and the good insights that you provide.
I booked directly with the hotel’s website. That’s how we got such a good deal. Their website also has instructions on how to reach the island. We have no idea about current Covid restrictions though.
Congrats on your upcoming wedding! May is just the start of rainy season so it's really hard to say. In 2020, it was still bright and sunny but in 2021 it was already cloudy and rainy. You can see some grey days on this video so that's what it's like. The resort is so nice though that even if you have to stay inside you can enjoy your time. If having perfect weather is important to you though I would not risk it and pick somewhere not about to start rainy season.
@@LucasWorldTravel we want to go so bad so I think we’re going to risk it with the rain! Thanks for the reply. The resort is not all inclusive with food correct? Were the restaurants on the resort expensive? We’re trying to keep it a low budget trip overall!
@@mckinleyrogers6339 No, it's definitely not all inclusive. Their breakfast is fantastic though and included. We tried to really fill up on breakfast, skip lunch, and enjoy our dinners there. Often they had live music during dinner. Their Thai menu was very reasonable priced. Their westerner food menu was a bit more expensive though.

Yes we are glad that our selfless hard work hasn't gone unnoticed. 😂

Yes, watching sunset from the infinity was truly spectacular!
Looks beautiful.

Yes I can imagine you out here paddle boarding now. You would definitely be better at it than us!
staying in a luxury resort for a cheap price is an awesome experience! I hope I can visit that country too looks paradise.
You would love Thailand! It’s so beautiful and so much to see!
Wow, my first thoughts were - this looks like paradise. And the room is sooo nice with all that details, really looks like a 5-star hotel. And those views from your room and breakfast were amazing. Looked like you two had the hotel for yourselves. Can't believe that price.
Yes, it was the best hotel experience we've ever had! It was our first time going 5-star and I must say I can't wait to try it again! It was so nice!

I am Thai. it's surprise me you get a very good deal😍😍👍
Yes, this deal is going the whole month of September. A very good deal!
That infinity and the waterfall pool was incredible 👍 . Loved the island tour ... Nice place to venture out from Phuket .. !! That 2500 baht for a private boat was a bit costly but definitely worth the island experience
Yes unfortunately we occasionally make a costly mistake on the journey, but I hope others can learn from our mistakes.
Amazing very nice 👍
That looks great. If only it were closer to Seattle Have a great time
Thanks! It was a great experience if you are ever in Asia.
Best Hotel Group hat. Thailand. We love it. Hope we can go again after corona. Take care

WOW! Santhiya Resort is def going on our bucket list!! The view from your balcony was breathtaking and for that cheap - we are there! Sorry about the bike mishap but at least the destination was worth it :)
It was definitely worth! And mistakes are an inevitable part of traveling internationally anyway.
The view with breakfast was amazing and the food looked great. It does look like a hard life. It is awesome they have paddle boards I really want to try that too :) Adding another island to our list :)
Yes, you should definitely try this resort while the prices are so low and because you have easy access to it from Phuket!
Amazing hotel! Taking bath on the balcony with such a view should be very relaxing :)
Thanks for a good tip about motorbike transporting. That's a pity you've had such an expensive experience.
Yes, expensive lessons due to poor planning are just a part of life sometimes. Thanks for watching!
such a beautiful place!!! Love it!
Ouch, the price of that private boat 🚣♀️ 😬. The resort looks amazing especially the bedroom and balcony WOW! Wish we could teleport there! :)
Yes, teleportation really should be a thing by now! 😀
i want to go back here

Which website do you used to book the resort?

Is this during covid? I didnt know boat still go there
This was 2020 so yes during Covid.
Yes , have boat to here now.
Hi! We are planning to go there for a honeymoon in May, do you think it’s a bad idea to go in the rainy season?

Tip : A massage should not be less than two hours . One hour you miss a lot
Never had a two hour massage. We’ll have to try it!
I love your video, but it is not a real 5 ⭐️ hotel 😳
