2019 is coming to an end soon and we’re updating our holiday inspirations because we know you are excited to end the year with an awesome getaway and of course, Be Good To Yourself ! One of my favorite things about travel be it a short weekend getaway or wellness retreats, is that you get to go out there explore a new place, and re-discover yourself. Travel is also very much about the inner and outer. When you give yourself the opportunity for self-awareness and self-discovery through travel, you will realize that you can easily traverse the world within and around you.

1.Kids Retreat

4. Find your balance and improve your personal health

The pressures and demands of our professional, social and family lives can create an imbalance to the quality of our life and our personal health. At Asaya Rosewood Phuket, they understand these imbalances happen and have carefully designed wellness programs to help you re-engage with the loss of that synergy and balance in your life. They combine personal wellness with fitness and nutrition to ensure we have effective and results-oriented programming. These longer-stay wellness journeys are your own private journey to understanding yourself and how to ensure you are living at an optimal level always.  Their packages include a healthy cooking class and hands-on demonstrations led by our professional chefs to improve your culinary skills and teach you new techniques to adapt your cooking to a healthier lifestyle.
