I just wanted a break from the rush of everyday life, and the Best Value Day Retreat at The Spa Koh Chang  turned out to be exactly what I needed. From yoga in the morning to healthy food, unlimited drinks, and the spa treatments and everything felt so relaxing. By the end of the day, it was like I had completely reset myself. Booking through Peyton & Charmed made it super easy too , they handled everything so I could just enjoy. Honestly, such a great value and the perfect way to recharge.

I just tried the Salak Khok Thai Gondola Cruise through Peyton & Charmed and honestly, it was such a vibe! Sitting on the wooden gondola, slowly drifting through the mangrove forest… so quiet, so peaceful, it really felt like recharging my soul. The package covered everything, including transfers and insurance, so I didn’t have to worry about any logistics. All in all, it’s only about 40 minutes, but it gave me this rare feeling of true calm , like hitting the reset button in the middle of the day.

My hotel package with Peyton & Charmed was exactly the kind of trip I was looking for. It was a perfect week with a great balance of relaxation and adventure. My mornings started with peaceful yoga sessions by the sea, followed by trips to explore the tranquil mangroves and local fishing villages. The highlight was a private snorkeling trip to Koh Wai, which felt like my own hidden paradise, offering a unique and secluded escape. What I appreciated most was the seamlessness.
