Kuraburi Greenview Resort




This charming new resort consists of 35 air-conditioned chalets surrounded by tropical rain forest. The rooms blend rustic materials with modern comforts. When staying at the Greenview, you can visit two of Thailand's finest national parks.

Surin Island Marine Park has fine white beaches and is considered Thailand's foremost destination for snorkelers. Khao Soke National Park and the adjoining forest is one of Thailand's best preserved habitats for tropical flora and fauna.


The resort is located in northern Phang-Nga and is an excellent base for exploring the lush corner of South Thailand which lies north of famous Phuket.
