Widely considered as the gateway to Southeast Asia, Thailand has been captivating outsiders for centuries. Cosmopolitan Bangkok is where most journeys begin, but head north to savor the country’s culinary center or south to islands that can only be described as ethereal. Regardless of where you visit, visitors never fail to be dazzled by Thailand’s masterpiece temples, fragrant cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and sprawling outdoor markets.

Hop back into the tuk tuk and cruise through the old town before stopping off at a popular local food market.

The location of the resort essentially means that the peaceful bay in front of the resort is private. It's conveniently located close to the airport, as well as areas of interest, but far enough from the action to provide a feeling of peace and tranquility.
