Yoga & Culture in Thailand

Week 1 (South) - Each two-story Deluxe Pavilion offers fully-equipped, spacious accommodation and stylish, tropical decor with polished wood, richly colored fabrics and hand-crafted details throughout as well as an outdoor terrace with seating. The circular design of the pavilions blends perfectly with the resort's natural surroundings, echoing the rounded cliffs of the rock formations that characterize the area's unique landscape.

Week 2 (North) - Lanna Rooms offer first and second floor garden courtyard views and are decorated in a style that blends perfectly with the hotel's theme and setting. Decorative elements such as hand-made lacquer boxes and embroidered tribal caps add to the charm and reflect the attention to detail found throughout the hotel.

Book your international ticket into Krabi International Airport (airport code: KBV) and departing out of Chiang Mai International Airport (airport code: CNX). Alternatively you can book your flights into and out of Bangkok (BKK) and then we can advise on booking the domestic flights separately.

To arrive on Day 1 of the retreat and depart on the last day you would schedule your flights to Arrive on April 21^st and Depart on April 30^th   

One domestic flight is included in the price which is the one that will take you from Krabi in the south to Chiang Mai in the north mid-week on the retreat and we will be booking this for you.

Note that if your international flights begin and end in Bangkok you will also need additional domestic flights from Bangkok to Krabi where the retreat starts, and then out of Chiang Mai to Bangkok when the retreat ends. We have a travel agent who can assist you with this.
