Not all loving lotharios remember February 14 as assiduously as they should, so if you missed out on Valentines celebrations and need to make amends, or if you simply want to show your inamorata some springtime love, make tracks for Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan Villas where a five-night ‘seaside romance’ package in a secluded ocean pool villa includes designer dining on the beach, a bottle of sparkling wine, daily breakfast for two and a flower petal-strewn bed on arrival. Throw a mountain-side spa, exquisite Thai and Japanese cuisine, plus the soft white sands of Thong Nai Pan Noi Beach into the mix and you have the ultimate get out of gaol free card.
But then it’s hard for anyone to resist the tropical flora, sparkling ocean views and butler service at this all suites and villas resort. It has an air of enchantment that kicks in the moment you experience the unique ‘castaway’ arrival and step off the private speedboat into glittering shallow waters. This is barefoot luxury at its best.
Couples can take their intimate ease at Anantara Spa during the day or indulge in activities ranging from tie-dye workshops and yoga sessions to Muay Thai lessons and a host of water sports. All help to work up an appetite for sundowners at EDGE20 Beach Bar followed by dinner at The Bistro at the Beach or some of the best sushi on Koh Phangan at Yukinoya, the only tepanyaki-style Japanese restaurant on the island. An undoubted highlight of the ‘seaside romance’ package is the romantic beach dinner, part of Anantara’s signature designer dining concept, which invites guests to create their own bespoke dining experience in a variety of unique locations and romantic settings.
