(1888PressRelease) August 17, 2011 - With the global economy on the brink of yet another crisis, vacationers in all income brackets are looking to maximize vacation budgets. The present tourism state has the potential to either help or hurt an economy that is dependent on tourism. In recent years, many destinations where the dollar, euro, and pound have strong buying power have seen great increases in tourism.

Lonely Planet, a top travel advice and destination information company, recently named Thailand as the second-best vacation value in the world. Lonely Planet said, "Perennially good-value Thailand is still top of the pops." When one considers a three-bedroom private vacation villa complete with a private pool, luxury airport transfers, daily maid cleaning, chauffer services, and even your very own cook can cost less than a luxury hotel in most major cities, it is no surprise that Krabi, Thailand is a top vacation destination for budget conscious travelers.

Krabi, which is located a few hours' drive from Phuket, has an amazing coastline, idyllic islands, and a tropical jungle and is a postcard-perfect vacation destination. Whether your idea of a perfect vacation is spending the day by your luxurious private villa's pool, laying out on the world-renowned Ao Nang Beach or being whisked to an amazing snorkel spot via speedboat, Krabi will exceed your expectations.

In a recent interview, Pierre-Yves 'Ton' Loriers, a prominent businessman who runs a large Krabi vacation rental business and land development company based out of Krabi, Thailand, said, "In light of the current economy, I am not surprised at all that people are flocking to Krabi where their money will buy a vacation they could not normally afford. Vacationers have finally discovered they can have every possible amenity and enjoy them all at an affordable cost!" Ton's company, which is a luxury vacation business, is capitalizing on the current global economy.

For those considering a luxury vacation on a tight budget, Krabi, Thailand simply cannot be beat. Even though Krabi boasts over two million annual visitors, the personalization and pampering this escape offers will renew your mind and spirit while leaving your finances intact.
