One of the us recently celebrates a special birthday (clue, it wasn't John!) and as part of the 50th birthday celebrations we headed off on an amazing trip to Khao Lak & Bangkok in Thailand and finished with 3 nights in Singapore.
The first stay was at the stunning . As Khao Lak's first Luxury resort it was the ideal location and situation to relax after a long flight. Its stunning beach front location afforded amazing sunset views, whilst sipping on sundowners, and during the day the pool area was one of peace and calm.
However, what really did create a lasting memory was the staff. They offered the type of warm, honest and sincere service you can expect in the Far East and everyone single person made sure you felt like you where home. They truely were a credit to the property.
We were lucky to experience 2 types of accommodation in resort and our Jacuzzi Pool Suite was stunning and a short stroll to all of the amenities of the hotel including the Spa, which offered possibly one of the best treatments we have ever had!
Finally, it wouldn't be a trip to Thailand without mentioning the food 😊The resort not only offered the option of having breakfast until 6pm (yes breakfast was served all day with free flowing bubbles, or holiday juice as our amazing wait staff used to call it!) but the thai food for dinner under the Thai Favourites menu allowed you to experience many thia dishes for a very reasonable price, whilst looking over the stunning beach. What more could you want!
Next up we moved to Bangkok, but we wil cover that on another post, so stay tuned!
