Meditation and Relaxation: The Ultimate Villa Retreat

PATONG BAY, Thailand - July 21, 2015 - PRLog -- How do you feel about escaping the four walls of your office and taking a breather in a vast, open space? Do you want to clear your mind or even mend a broken heart?

For a change in scenery, Phuket is the place to go. Choose a villa rental and you’re guaranteed luxury accommodations and finally getting some peace and quiet.

Take out your planners. Here are some of our recommendations during your stay.

Enjoying the View

First and foremost, as you step out of the airport, make sure to breathe in and witness the beauty of Thailand. When you reach your villa, head to the balcony and appreciate the view. You can unpack later. You are after all in the Land of the Free.

Cafés and Restaurants

This time, there is no lunch hour to follow. Cook your own food in the villa’s kitchen, avail in-house catering, or head to town and dine out. Get to taste authentic Thai food and enjoy a long, leisurely meal with a nice view of the ocean.

Thai Massage

Loosen up through the scent of oil, incense, and candles. Take a walk around Phuket and you’ll see a line of massage parlors. You may also opt for a masseur on-call for a room service.

Yoga by the beach

Thailand is a great setting for yogis. Inhale the sea breeze and meditate to the sound of waves on the shore.

Phuket Wats

When seeking for a spiritual retreat, the best place to go is a Buddhist temple. Several wats and great statues of Buddha are located in Phuket for your pilgrimage. The monks and caretakers will be happy to show you the path toward enlightenment. It also pays to research and take note of the etiquette and worshipping practices before you enter a temple.

Surfing and Scuba Diving

The idea that beach activities are only for thrill seekers is a misconception. Head to the shore, look for a coach, and grab a board and a suit! The feeling of the ocean waves surrounding you is actually a wonderfully tranquil experience.

Kayaking

Patong is conveniently close to our villa and if you want to see other islands, you can hire a rower to take or guide you on a kayak. Have a taste of serenity in the remote beaches and caves around Phuket.

Phuket Bird Park

Fully immersing yourself in nature will surely give you some peace of mind. What better way to do that than by being surrounded by flora and hearing the chirps of our avian friends?

Sunset Viewing

Quarter to seven Thailand standard is the perfect time. Throughout your stay, don’t forget to stop for a few minutes and witness the magnificence of the setting sun.

These are just a few of the things you can log in your itinerary. There are plenty more activities and sights you can visit. A well-deserved retreat awaits you in Phuket. You just need to know where to look.
