Krabi
One email when it becomes an exceptional redemption, so you can book before it changes.
One of only a handful of Ritz-Carlton Reserves worldwide, facing the Andaman Sea and the karst islands off Krabi. Pavilions, villas and an exceptional spa.
Reserve properties rarely make sense on points. This one does. Cash rates sit well above what the award chart implies, and five-night stays push the value higher still.
Our best dates price at 362,000 points for 5 nights, against $5,801 in cash. The fifth night is free.
Why it’s exceptional

1.60¢
Value per point: the cash price of the stay divided by the points it costs.
Cash is unusually expensive for these dates, which makes points more attractive.
