    A city getaway

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 15/10/2021

    » Travelling to a nearby province for a beach or a tranquil mountain stay is great, but just staying in the city offers as much as all the trappings of a getaway. Maybe you just want to stay within the confines of the hotel to relax and enjoy what they have to offer rather than go out exploring while huffing in a mask. If a wonderful city staycation is what you're after then Centara Grand at CentralWorld's "The Place to Be" package has pretty much everything you need.

    Come fly with me

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 04/06/2021

    » Among the many things that we've lost during this pandemic, the ability to get on a plane on a whim and fancy has been the biggest. If you've ever been to Suvarnabhumi International Airport in the past months to just walk around with a trolley to remind yourself what it feels like waiting for your flight (no? just me then?), then you'll know that the airport is a shadow of its former self. Even if you did manage to book a flight, it involves so much paperwork and costs so much, coupled with the fear of catching the virus, it's not worth it unless in an emergency.

    Wellness just for you

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 16/04/2021

    » A simple Google search of wellness programmes or retreats will have you bombarded with countless results. It's not at all difficult to book wellness treatments around Bangkok or in the provinces if you feel like doing a healthy getaway. But the numerous options out there can be overwhelming, and unless you take the time to also research what these treatments are, you might end up signing for something that will make you feel worse rather than better. Kamalaya, however, will do all the heavy lifting for you: they'll tailor a programme based on your goals and needs so you get treatments that actually help you. On top of that, it doesn't hurt that it's located on the beautiful island of Koh Samui.

    Winter wonderlands

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 20/11/2020

    » If you haven't noticed, there's only a little over a month left for 2020 to end. This also means cooler weather all over the country and along with that comes a slew of festivals making good use of the cool breeze that makes walking outside more delightful and less of a workout. A number of these events take place outside the city, which means even cooler temperatures and breezes accompanied by fantastic views of nature. These events are a great way to enjoy the "winter season" and serve as a reminder that we've made it through 2020 so we've all earned ourselves a bit of time to enjoy what these festivals have to offer.

    Budget getaway

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 25/09/2020

    » Luxurious resorts with magnificent suites, top-class amenities and great restaurants definitely result in a great vacation/getaway. The thing is, it comes with a price, and the price can be a little bit steep. It can be challenging to find a place you can stay to relax and unwind and not hurt your wallet too much, but if a budget getaway is what you're after that caters to the enjoyment of kids and adults, Centra by Centara Cha-Am Beach Resort Hua Hin is a great option that's not too far nor too expensive.

    Holiday in the sun

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 19/06/2020

    » Welcome to Phase 4! No, I'm not talking about the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Phase 4, which hasn't kicked off yet because Black Widow is postponed to November. I'm talking about the easing of restrictions nationwide as the country goes back to "normal". Monday saw the lifting of curfew so we can finally go back to staying out late and sneaking back home, as well as the lifting of the ban on sales of certain refreshments in restaurants. It also means the reopening of a number of places and attractions all around the country, and if you're like me, you've been itching to get out of Bangkok, head to the beach for some vitamin sea or go on a road trip with your pals. This week, Guru's got a list of places you can visit on your post-quarantine domestic travel.

    Bang Saray tranquillity

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 17/01/2020

    » The hustle and bustle of city life, especially if the city's Bangkok, can take a toll on some. One of the easiest remedies is to escape to the nearest beach but while occasional trips are great, it may also be beneficial to have a place to call your own, sort of like your fortress of solitude or more accurately, tranquillity. For that, there may be no place better than Sunplay Club Bangsaray.

    Hakuna Matata

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 23/08/2019

    » Phuket has long been a beach getaway for locals and tourists, and for good reason. Especially if you're a Bangkokian like me, who can resist a quick weekend getaway complete with great sights, mouth-watering food and fantastic beaches -- all of which can be reached within an hour's flight? Of course, while Phuket is a great destination, there's more aspects to a great trip that have to be planned out and that could be a little stressful. Soon enough, you'll find yourself having a headache just trying to sort out details for a vacay and once you finally do go on the trip, you start wondering whether all that stress (and the money you spent, which made your bank account run dry) was even worth it. Vacays and getaways should be stress-free, enjoyable and despite being perhaps a little pricey, still worth every single dime you spend. Enter Twinpalms MontAzure, your next beach destination. Seriously, this is your next vacay. It's not a suggestion and you'll see why.
