Who wants to go to Thailand?

Four years ago this week, I moved to South Florida after living in London for 11+ years. Before I totally packed up everything in London though, I spent nine months traveling the world. The place I kept going back to? Thailand. I love Thailand. I love the people, I love the culture, I love the beaches, and I love the food. Can I inspire you to visit Thailand? If so, let’s talk! Here are some of my favorite places in Thailand…

Bangkok: My Encounter with Contrasting Splendor

Venturing into Bangkok, the vibrant capital city, I find myself immersed in a world where modernity dances with tradition. I stroll through the magnificent halls of the Grand Palace, marveling at the intricate architecture of Wat Phra Kaew. Exploring the bustling markets, I discover exquisite luxuries that make my heart skip a beat. To add a touch of opulence to my stay, I recommend the Virtuoso hotel, The Siam, where the tranquil Chao Phraya River serves as a picturesque backdrop to its harmonious blend of Thai heritage and contemporary elegance.

Chiang Mai: A Tranquil Escape

In the mountainous region of Chiang Mai, I find solace amidst serene landscapes and ancient temples. The sacred aura of Wat Phra That Doi Suthep transports me to a spiritual realm, while a traditional Thai cooking class indulges my senses and deepens my connection to the local culture. As I seek rejuvenation, the luxury boutique resort the Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai beckons me with its sophisticated suites and impeccable personalized service, nestled within a tropical garden haven. And hey, the craft beer scene is pretty awesome too.

Koh Lanta: My Slice of Island Paradise

As I set foot on Koh Lanta, a serene island adorned with pristine beaches and azure waters, I feel the weight of the world slip away. Basking in the warm sun, I lose myself in the tranquility that surrounds me. Snorkeling amidst vibrant coral reefs and partaking in thrilling water sports leave me with memories to treasure forever. And to ensure an extraordinary stay, I choose the luxurious Pimalai Resort & Spa, where I am cocooned in nature's embrace, amidst lush tropical greenery. The sunsets on Koh Lanta are like nothing I’ve ever experienced before.

Phuket: Beachside with a Twist of Local Culture

Phuket, Thailand's largest island, seduces me with its stunning beaches and a vibrant beachside lifestyle. Exploring hidden coves and secluded bays, I encounter breathtaking views that leave me in awe. And although Phuket is no stranger to a good party, when visiting places like the Giant Buddha, you can’t forget where you are.

For an unforgettable beachside retreat, I opt for The Rosewood Phuket, a Virtuoso hotel, where luxurious beachfront villas and suites provide an unrivaled setting for indulgence, accompanied by impeccable

Ayutthaya: A Journey Through Time

Stepping into Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Thailand, I am transported back in time, surrounded by captivating historical and cultural marvels. Exploring the enchanting ruins of Wat Mahathat and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, I feel a deep connection to the country's rich heritage. The Ayutthaya Historical Park becomes my sanctuary, filled with stories of the past. To enhance my experience, I retreat to the tranquility of Sala Ayutthaya, a hotel that seamlessly blends contemporary design with traditional Thai architecture, providing me with a refined oasis in the heart of this UNESCO World Heritage site.
