We think it’s safe to say Thailand is having a major moment. (Thank you, White Lotus.) And while the spotlight shines on the Land of Smiles, there’s one place that deserves your attention:

The Retreat, Koh Chang—a dreamy hideaway on the Gulf of Thailand. Sleek villas with private pools? Check. Beachfront dining with endless ocean views? Absolutely. A spa that takes relaxation to another level? Of course.

For those craving adventure, the island offers jungle treks, snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, and island-hopping excursions. Prefer a slower pace? Lounge in a private cabana, indulge in holistic spa treatments, or soak in the sunset with a cocktail in hand.

No matter how you unwind, this eco-conscious resort needs to be on your list.

Want a front-row seat to the Great Migration in the Serengeti, or how about an unforgettable dining experience in Cappadocia? We know the best ways to explore these iconic destinations—without the tourist crowds.

Let’s turn your next trip into a bucket-list experience, done right.
