Disconnect From Digital Distractions

In this hyper-connected world, Four Seasons Resorts Thailand offers a serene escape, inviting guests – whether travelling solo, as a couple, or with family – to disconnect from digital distractions and reconnect with nature. Renowned for its ‘sabai sabai’ lifestyle, warm hospitality and tropical climate, Thailand offers an ideal setting for a holistic dose of digital detox.

 

“When was the last time you really got in touch with yourself?” quizzes Sean Mosher, General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Tented Camp Golden Triangle. “Or taken the time to be in the present, without fleeting thoughts about the latest news or a pending business email response?”

 

 

Jasjit Assi, General Manager, Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, chimes in, “The digital exhaustion is real and comes with never being able to switch off.” Understanding the importance of providing opportunities for meaningful connections with nature and oneself, the resorts collection has re-calibrated its wellness programmes to offer immersive experiences and innovative therapies, fostering meaningful connections with nature and oneself.

 

Promising an off-the-grid adventure in the luxurious natural surroundings of Northern Thailand, bordering Myanmar and Laos, Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle is the perfect escape from the hum-drum of day-to-day life, catering to solo travellers, couples and families alike. Guests can immerse in the allure of digital detox experiences, offering a memorable experience for every type of travellers. The Camp is a perfect balance of nature and culture, adventure and relaxation and luxury.

 

 

“With just 15 tents and one two-bedroom Explorer’s Lodge, no in-room television but high-speed Wi-Fi – the Camp allows you to disconnect digitally, mentally and emotionally,” says Camp Manager Paweena Waraha. “Expect to hear birdsong from the spa, cicadas humming at night, frogs calling and even an elephant or two chatting in the distance. If you wake up early enough one morning, you can soak in the thick fog banks as they wash away to reveal the lush bamboo jungle just a few feet away.”

 

During the day, parents and children (aged 10 years and above) can enjoy the splendour of the tranquil morning with a hike to Camp Peak, followed by a solemn monk blessing, honouring timeless Thai traditions. Later, they can go fishing with a local along the Mekong River or go on a countryside bike tour, cycling through paddy fields, plantations and teak forests; perfect for rejuvenating both body and spirit.

 

 

The jungle spa is where relaxation meets natural healing. Guests can feel their tension melt away with Mahout Recovery, featuring soothing poultices filled with camphor, lime and lemongrass to ease sore muscles. Meanwhile, Ruak Bamboo, employing herbal oils and bamboo sticks, offers relief from deep muscle tension.

 

“For couples seeking connection, Lhong Rak Chiang Rai offers a serene escape, with massages infused with jasmine and sandalwood on a water mattress, fostering gentleness and unity,” Paweena recommends. “For a traditional touch, opt for Traditional Thai massage, enhancing circulation and flexibility through precise techniques. Even kids can join in with the Jungle Boy treatment, using local ingredients such as camphor and lemongrass for holistic wellness.”

 

 

“The art of mindful living is central to our wellness orientation – whether it is a couple or solo traveller. This tranquil retreat offers guests the opportunity to curate their own personalised wellness experiences amid the serene beauty of Northern Thailand,” adds General Manager Mosher.

 

“Guests’ well-being is our priority. We invite you to immerse in our tailored programmes that promise restorative healing. Guided relaxation and meditation help find balance, inner stillness, boost positivity and confidence – a great way to slow the mind down and find a sense of purpose,” says Saowapa Thumapun, Director of Spa. “Our newly launched half-day Soulful Awakening Programme offers a transformative pause for your body and mind. Crafted to fine-tune your circadian rhythm, this experience guarantees a deep and revitalising sleep and a connection to self.”
