The Siam Junk is built from the finest Burmese teak and ironwood, and furnished with beautiful hand-crafted decorations and ornaments fashioned by local artisans. She is some 34 metres long and 7 metres wide, ensuring ample space for all on board.

The twin masts are junk-rigged with traditional style sails that are both beautiful and functional: when the weather is suitable she is gently wafted along by the wind. At other times the 500bhp diesel engine ensures she makes her destination, cruising at a sedate 8 to 10 knots.

The vessel is fully insured for up to 80 passengers and meets International Marine Organization safety standards. The crew are well experienced – the captain has been piloting large merchant ships in SE Asian waters for over twenty years. Excellent first aid facilities are available at all times, along with lifejackets, two life-rafts and numerous other features which exceed local safety requirements: the welfare of all on board is paramount.

With incredibly spacious suites our guests feel like they are experiencing the comfort of a luxury villa rather than a cabin on a boat – with the magical difference that the location and view change every day! All six bedrooms are finished to a sumptuous standard and come with king size beds, en-suite bathrooms with powerful hot and cold water showers, hot and cold water wash basins, full sized WC, hairdryer and complimentary bathrobes.
