Not in IHG One Rewards

This property carries the Six Senses name but is not enrolled in IHG One Rewards. A stay here earns no points and confers no elite benefits, so it is left out of this site's program counts, editor's picks and ranked guides. Everything below still applies -- it is simply not a loyalty stay.

Last updated August 14, 2026

Six Senses Krabey Island occupies its own 13-hectare (32-acre) private island in the Gulf of Thailand, about 11 km from Sihanoukville International Airport and reached via a short speedboat transfer from a private jetty.

TripAdvisor ranks it #4 of 137 hotels in Sihanoukville at 4 of 5 from 222 reviews, and it holds 2 Michelin Keys, with guest and press coverage consistently praising the villas, service, dining, and barefoot-luxury atmosphere.
