All-Inclusive holidays in Thailand

To fuse together spirituality and cultural discovery during your all-inclusive stay in Thailand, head for Wat Phra Kaew. Named the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, this sacred location is like no other in the country. You are sure to love the wealth of architectural refinement: gilded mouldings, frescoes, multicoloured tiles... That all pales in comparison with the beauty of the Buddha, sculpted from jade, 66 cm tall but placed on a golden pedestal towering 11 metres high.

Today, the country's ancient capital is a majestic historical park where ancient ruins and temples can be visited. Wander through the heart of the 300 hectares of serenity and temples on foot, scooter or tuk-tuk. A visit to the Wat Mahathat temple is a must, with its Buddha statue framed by tree roots. The 135 Buddha statues of Wat Yai Chai Mongkhol await you and with them, so does a perfect view of the surroundings.

Official residence of kings for nearly two centuries, the Grand Palais of Bangkok is not to be missed. Succeeding Ayutthaya, the site has an extraordinary wealth of architecture that you can contemplate once you’ve crossed its impressive doorway. Here you will find a splendid view of the famous golden chedi and the immaculately-kept lawn. Why not make a detour by the royal pavilion to admire the permanent collections on site.

An enormous statue in Phuket, the marble statue of the Grand Buddha at its height of 45m, watches over Chalong Bay. 40 minutes from Club Med Phuket resort, the site offers a 360° view of the island and the Andaman Sea. Early in the morning, the romantic atmosphere is sure to seduce you as the sun rises. Think about writing your name and a wish on a marble plaque which can then be placed on the Buddha…

With the fine sand beached, turquoise waters and rocky cirques, the Phi Phi islands, opposite Phuket, will remain an intense memory from your all-inclusive stay in Thailand. A globally renowned diving site, its protected sea floors will offer you the setting of your dreams to introduce you to diving. 2 hours from Club Med Phuket resort, from the simply sublime Maya Bay, you’ll set off on a marine excursion on board a traditional long-tailed boat.

To the north of Phuket, your all-inclusive stay in Thailand will lead you towards the extraordinary islands of Surin and Similan. These two practically uninhabited archipelagos are home to many protected flora and fauna, which can be discovered via the on-land or underwater excursions. Effectively, the true treasure of these islands can be found under the surface, where you admire parrot fish, turtles and coral reefs. Only 2 hours from Club Med Phuket resort, you’re at the gates of beauty in its purest form.

Accessible from Phuket by boat, Ko Yao Noi, with its 4000 inhabitants, inspires calm in a luxury setting. Far away from the bustle of the metropolis, the island offers your family an exceptional panoramic view over the bay of Phang Nga and its karstic rocks which break up the bluish horizon. You will discover Thailand at its most preserved, wild and authentic, on foot or on board a traditional canoe. 2 hours from Phuket resort, head out on an adventure far away from it all.

Historians and explorers gather with their families on the Kwai River Bridge to enjoy a picture postcard Thailand view. During this stage of your Thailand trip, you'll discover a splendid vestige of the past, encircled by dense vegetation. Nearby, the dedicated museum lets you in on all the secrets of one of the most famous bridges in the world. At the end of your day, board the train and contemplate all that Thailand has to offer, from provincial railway stations to tapioca fields.

To the west of Bangkok, you will find a Thai spectacle that is both unusual and popular: the floating market of Damnoen Saduak. You'll discover an unchanging scene with stalls full of colourful fruit and vegetables atop canoes. At the heart of this charming hustle and bustle, the liveliness pairs well with the beauty of the place, with smiling vendors dressed in blue tunics and wearing traditional straw hats.

Located to the north of Phuket, the famous Phang Nga Bay promises spectacular scenery with 300 calcareous peaks topped with greener than green jungle. Settled into the Andaman coastline, your all-inclusive stay in Thailand is set to be heavenly. Set off as a family on a canoe excursion across the mangrove; or climb on board a boat hopping from island to island to Koh Panyi, a floating village.
