This “eco chic” resort is situated on the northernmost beach of Pila Island in the Mergui Archipelago, 80 kilometres from Kawthaung. When on the beach guests are cradled by untamed forest behind with the expanse of the Andaman Sea to gaze out to in front.

The 24 suites are made of light-weight timber and fabric. The design, while incorporating elements of traditional Myanmar architecture, creates the ambience of a base camp for exploration and excursion.

Awei Pila boasts a swimming pool and spa and their team can arrange boat trips, scuba diving, and snorkeling.

FLASH POINT: Indulge yourself with the beach butler service and hunker down in the evening for a campfire BBQ.
