One of only six properties in the kingdom to achieve this highly distinguished accolade, Phulay Bay was also voted as the #1 “Best Resort in Thailand” by Condé Nast Traveller
Krabi, Thailand – October 2025 – Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, the ultra-luxurious seafront sanctuary in Southern Thailand’s Krabi province, has reaffirmed its status as one of the world’s most extraordinary places to stay, dine and unwind, as it was awarded 3 MICHELIN Keys for the second consecutive year.
The second annual MICHELIN Key awards were revealed in October 2025, following countless hours of evaluation by the expert team of MICHELIN Inspectors. Only six properties in Thailand earned the prestigious 3 Key distinction – the highest honor in The MICHELIN Guide. Of these six, only three are beach resorts, and just one – Phulay Bay – is located in the breathtaking Thai province of Krabi.
The MICHELIN Guide 2025 praised Phulay Bay for the sheer quality of its services and facilities, all underpinned by authentic Southern Thai hospitality and panoramic views of the Andaman Sea, to create truly unparalleled guest experiences.
“One of the most straightforward ways to stand out in the crowded field of Thai luxury hospitality is to simply create one of the most luxurious resorts anywhere, and that’s the path chosen by Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve. What sets it even further apart from the norm is its exquisite tastefulness, from the traditional-style welcome pavilion to the thoughtfully localized interiors of the hotel’s villas and pavilions. ” The MICHELIN Guide 2025 states.
