Thai-m to travel to Thailand again with COMO Hotels and Resorts

With Thailand axing its Pass registration scheme and mandatory US$10,000 health insurance requirement for foreign visitors next month, there’s no better time to travel to the ‘land of smiles’.

To celebrate, COMO Hotels and Resorts is sharing an action-packed Thai travel itinerary, beginning in the bustling Bangkok to explore its iconic street food scene and cultural attractions while staying at COMO Metropolitan Bangkok. Guests are later invited to transfer to COMO Point Yamu on the island’s tranquil east coast, to explore the many rocky inlets and deserted beaches, while indulging in COMO Shambhala treatments and wholesome COMO Shambhala cuisine.

Culture, Cuisine and Adventure Travel in Thailand 

COMO Metropolitan Bangkok and COMO Point Yamu

After years of travel restrictions, it is time to start ticking some dream destinations off your wish list and with Thailand axing its Pass registration scheme and mandatory US$10,000 health insurance requirement for foreign visitors next month, the country is open to everyone once again. You could easily devote an entire trip to the luxurious confines of a COMO suite or relax at a COMO Shambhala Retreat – but after years of confinement, the need for adventure calls. Start your journey in the heart of bustling Bangkok at COMO Metropolitan, a stopover with soul. Explore the Amphawa Floating Markets or Grand Palace with a guide, stroll Lumpini Park and dine at the hotel’s Michelin-starred Nahm, offering a modern take on traditional Thai fare, before heading to Phuket’s peaceful east coast. 

Perched at the tip of Cape Yamu, overlooking the striking limestone karsts of UNESCO-protected Phang Nga Bay, COMO Point Yamu is an escape worth adding to your bucket list. Famed as one of the best places in Thailand to watch the sunset, the Andaman Pool Villas offer ample peace and tranquillity and are the perfect base from which to explore the adventure-rich locale. Discover this lesser-known side of Phuket, its rocky inlets, deserted beaches and deep lagoons by kayak, traditional Thai long-tail or speedboat charter, before heading under the waves to marvel at the rich marine life and striking coral structures of the Andaman Sea on a diving expedition or Khai Island snorkelling trip.

Back on dry land, make a jaunt for the jungles, mangroves and plantations of Phuket on a guided hike or adrenaline-inducing ride in an ATV. Visit the Gibbon Rehabilitation Project, a centre dedicated to saving and rehabilitating gibbons, finding them mates, and setting them back into protected areas, before taking a dip at the picturesque Bang Pae Waterfall and feasting on a picnic prepared by COMO’s chefs in its mist. After an action-packed day, guests can escape to COMO Shambhala Retreat for a traditional Thai massage or private yoga session. 

Rooms start from £88 at COMO Metropolitan Bangkok and £138 at COMO Point Yamu. For more information, please visit https://www.comohotels.com/en
