The bedrooms
Spread across the three pavilions, the six bedrooms of Ban Mekkala come in three distinctive styles. Choose whichever makes you happiest.
If you can’t choose based on the bedroom layouts alone, the insanely gorgeous ensuite bathrooms will get you leaning one way or the other.
The best bits
The pool is pristine. It’s long enough for laps and has a great shallow area for kids to enjoy. We most love that the water blends in perfectly with the azure ocean beyond and you feel like you could just drift away.
The long runway down to the pool and outdoor dining sala, flanked by two pavilions and trees, just adds to the beauty and drama of Ban Mekkala.
We’re all about this deck off of the living area. You’ll truly feel like the king of your castle as you enjoy your morning caffeine hit from this spot.
