Koh Samui Thailand

Our recent trip to Koh Samui Thailand was the perfect weekend getaway. A short direct flight from KL via Firefly Subang to Koh Samui we discovered magnificent luxury hotel resorts for the ultimate chillaxing pampering vacation.

HANSAR SAMUI RESORT:

Hansar Koh Samui is Situated just 10 minutes from the Island’s International airport, Hansar Samui is located on the tropical stretch of golden sands and turquoise waters of Koh Samui’s up-market Bophut Bay, which offers a front seat to island life.  A leisurely stroll down the quaint cobblestone ‘walking street’ adjacent to the resort, is the vibrant Fisherman’s Village, with its antique wooden shop fronts, chic cafes and atmospheric seaside bars. Hansar Samui offers luxurious, beachfront, spacious accommodation with unobstructed sea views from every room, and supersize private balconies and oversize daybeds for outdoor living and chillaxing.

FOUR SEASONS KOH SAMUI: 

As you know with all Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, this one in Koh Samui is no less than sumptuous and luxuriously relaxing. Located 30 minutes away from the airport. One of the most romantic getaways.

SIX SENSES SAMUI: 

The luxuriously appointed Six Senses Samui is set around a gently sloping headland on the northern tip of Samui Island amongst 20-acres of indigenous vegetation that ensures maximum privacy while offering uninterrupted, breathtaking panoramas to the Gulf of Siam and outlying islands.

SALA SAMUI RESORT & SPA:

SALA Samui Resort and Spa is a stunning deluxe pool villa resort on Koh Samui island, featuring private swimming pools in 53 out of 69 total villas and suites. At SALA Samui, a comfortable, relaxing ambiance is created by a harmonious blend of traditional Thai architecture with modern facilities and amenities. Located on Choeng Mon beach on the northeast corner of Koh Samui island, SALA Samui is just 15 minutes from the Samui airport, 20 minutes from Bo Phut’s quaint Fisherman’s Village, and only 15 minutes from Chaweng Beach shopping and nightlife.

Pangkor Laut Resort

We recently had a wonderful weekend getaway to YTL’s Pangkor Laut Resort located on the West Coast of Malaysia. With a seriously impressive list of awards and accolades to its name such as Best Spa Resort (Winner) CNNGo! 2011; Best Luxury Destination Spa  World Luxury Hotel Awards, 2011; Best Hotel voted by SLH Club Members Small Luxury Hotels of The World, 2009 - it’s no surprise to you that we often recommend this hotel to our friends overseas.

Pangkor Laut Resort is located on the privately owned island of Pangkor Laut off the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, it is a tropical isle with rocky outcrops and white sandy beaches fringed by a beautiful rain forest. We recommend the Spa Villa with your private water chalet and balcony. We spotted all sorts of wildlife from giant monitor lizards to hornbills on the resort. Great dining facilities and our faves were Fisherman’s Cove and Uncle Lim’s Kitchen for dinner and lunch at Royal bay Beach Club. Of course we also visited the Spa Village which is world renowned doing their signature Bath House ritual.  See why we loved it so much! It’s the ideal romantic retreat.

Stoked about Sydney

Published in The Peak, March 2012 (Click on images to read the article).

Sydney, Australia

We visited Sydney for our first time over the New Year’s Eve break and we were simply blown away by the beauty, fun, excitement, and warm hospitality of the Aussies. We quite simply fell in love with Sydney.

As one of the most iconic cities of the world with her world-famous Harbour Bridge, Opera House, Bondi Beach and sparkling waters, Sydney is breathtakingly beautiful. And to ring in New Year’s Eve with Sydney’s amazing fireworks, was just a dream come true. We had our boat bobbing under the Harbour Bridge near the Opera House as we viewed the most spectacular fireworks in the world.

Of course, we did all the touristy stuff such as Opera House, Harbour Bridge, The Rocks, Bondi Beach, Rose Bay, as well as the Northern Beaches like Manly Beach, Freshwater, Palm Beach and more. As images speak louder than words, we highly recommend Sydney as the top destination to visit!
