Your private “Mae Baan” (butler) will ensure every aspect of your stay is memorable. The exclusive Residence Pool is a short walk away. Immerse in truly Thai experiences such as rice planting, buffalo bathing, farmer’s parade, nature trails and more, to discover the cultural diversity of Thailand.
Next, the prize-winner will experience an away-from-it-all hillside resort with views of the Gulf of Siam, with three nights at Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui. The Two Bedroom Residence Villa with Pool here is located on the lush tropical hillside. The thoughtful layout offers spaces for privacy as well as togetherness. Relax on the outdoor deck, take a dip in your private infinity pool, or have a casual meal in the open-air dining pavilion – all while enjoying splendid views of the nearby islands. The attentive hospitality of your 24-hour butler makes the island paradise experience all the more luxurious. Enjoy a garden tour to discover the conserved coconut groves and beautifully sculpted landscape by the award-winning Bill Bensley. The amphitheatre of sky, sea and islands combine in the guided snorkelling tour along the reef with our marine biologist. You can also try a Muay Thai lesson with an expert, dine at the hillcrest or the beachside and explore a pristine world of beaches, reefs, rainforest and sunshine on “coconut” paradise.
Finally, escape for two nights to Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle amid Thailand’s exotic bamboo jungles, reachable only by a river boat. The newly created safari-style Explorer’s Lodge comes with two airy bedrooms and a spacious deck, featuring an outdoor pool with stunning vistas.
