Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand

 

For centuries, the beaches of Koh Samui went unheralded - but their reputation has finally spread. Discover their virgin beauty while you still can - at the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand.

 

Talcum-sand beaches, tall coconut groves, and the sapphire Gulf of Siam - this is the bare minimum of what you get upon arriving at Koh Samui. You can only imagine what luxuries the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand added to such a pristine geographic canvas.

The villas of the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui are cut into a steep forested hillside that overlooks the ocean. The entire property goes from beachside to an altitude of 350 ft., where you'll find the Lan Tania rooftop restaurant floating above the highest trees and below the brightest stars.

Four Seasons Resort Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu, Hawaii

Hawaii's Kona District - home to radical sports such as surfing and triathlons, but also rejuvenating and relaxing refuges, such as the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu.  In addition to the standard amenities and services you'll find at other Hawaiian resorts, Four Seasons Resort Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu now offers an extra $40 million in enhancements.

You'll have access to the Hualalai Spa, which has undergone a massive 2009 expansion. Recline in the Water of Life garden, or "Waiea," while waiting for your treatment, or hop between steam rooms, whirlpools, saunas, and plunge pools - all outdoors, all under sun-dappled trees and blue skies.

One of the Four Seasons Resort's signature draws is its Hualalai Golf Course, a full 18-hole course stretching over 7,100 yards, designed by Jack Nicklaus himself. It ends by the beach, so as you finish the last few holes, you'll be revived by sea breezes and rays of sunlight bouncing off the ocean.

Once you're ready to go and explore the island, rent a car and head east or south - you'll quickly run into several national parks and reserves, where you can hike 'til your heart's content.

 

Take me there now.... :)
