This multi-award-winning I hotel resort stands alone vlv and superior, in every way. Accessible directly from Bangkok's Don Muang Internatioal Airport, the unique Royal Cliff Beach Resort is positioned high on a promontory, majestically overlooking its own two beaches, the waters of Royal Cliff Bay and the neighbouring islands in the Gulf of Thailand.
The resort is actually composed of four complementary hotels, beautifully integrated by the gorgeous, lush, green tropical gardens, and bordered on two sides by sandy beaches. The bronze statue of Phra Aphai Mani — the flute-playing character from classical Thai poetry who is positioned at the entrance of the resort, welcoming every guest, undoubtedly casts his own romantic spell.
The heart of the resort is the The Royal Cliff Beach Hotel, a world-wide favourite "home away from home", with 271 Superior Rooms with balconies, 263 Mini-Suites, 9 Theme Suites and 7 two-bedded Room Suites.
Families holiday here not only year after year but generation after generation.
Just below The Royal Cliff Beach Hotel is The Royal Cliff Terrace, whose 64 Mini-Suites are ideal for-honeymooners, along with 27 two-bedroom Family Suites on the beach-side. Sun shelters and deckchairs tempt guests to laze away the days on the clean sandy, private beach. Then there is The Royal Wing, which is superb in every aspect of its architecture, interior design, service and internal and external ambience. The balconies at the 84 suites overlook the pool and the sea, and the suites are cool and airy for relaxed enjoyment of Thailand's superb climate.
The Royal Cliff Grand is truly grand in every possible aspect. All the rooms and suites have private balconies with chaises-longues for uninterrupted views of the bay and islands. A magnificent chandelier overhangs a sparkling flower-decorated fountain, as the focal point of the three-storey lobby. Its own pool is bordered by terraces and gardens and overlooked by Rossini's, the Italian restaurant, and the Grand Cafe. The resort's latest touch of luxury is Baan Plai, a Thai-style building epitomizing everything of old-world Thai charm — rich timbers, soft colours, white marble floors and masses of tropical plants and flowers.
Traditional Thai massage is acknowledged as being revitalizing, relaxing and cleansing. The Baan Plai has been especially designed and built to provide this luxury masssage.
The Royal Cliff Beach Resort attracts conventioneers from around the world. The specific requirements of every type of meeting will be exactly fulfilled. The spacious conference areas enhanced by rich colours and opulent decoration pay tribute to Thai history, and display traditional Thai craftsmanship using timber inlays, crystal chandeliers and Thai silk panels.
Incentive groups are always stunned by the spectacular farewells which are individually planned to each group's special requirements. Modern communication requirements and a wide range of secretarial services are facilitated through the Business Centre.
The resort has also created its own special par-3 golf course. There are no green fees, only club rentals of 55 baht. There are also eight excellent 18-hole golf courses close to the resort, and the staff will gladly arrange guests' transfer and bookings.
The resort's own tennis complex, with its six hard courts and two "Knock-ball" courts, all floodlit at night, is recognized by the International Tennis Federation.
Qay after day, evening after evening, guests enjoy the colourful variety of restaurants. Visual delights tempt guests to stroll from one location to another, enjoying the artistic
features of each individual area of the resort or any particular event. Local craftwork is used extensively throughout the resort and ice-carvings are a party feature.
Dinner becomes not only a holiday priority at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort, it becomes a moveable feast and an adventure. Overlooking the park near the Royal Wing is the Thai Market Restaurant which serves delicious Thai specialities a la carte. Every Friday is the barbecue buffet when you will be tempted beyond satisfaction. Or the exquisite Benjarong Restaurant in the Royal Wing, or the Seafood Market, where fresh fish and crustaceans from the Gulf of Thailand are served. Whichever restaurant you may choose on whichever night of the week, the stroll from and to the restaurant, through gardens or orchid-lined walkways, will create a more memorable atmosphere than any outside eating experience.
