A ‘haven of life’ is a beautiful sanctuary where enrichment thrives and lives change. At least, that is what’s in store for you if you visit a wellness retreat in Thailand.

Keeping in mind the challenges we have faced to overseas travel over the past two years, it’s welcome news to learn of rejuvenating wellbeing offers. Now is the time to take advantage of Thailand’s green season (until October) by visiting Chiva-Som in Hua Hin.

Revitalise the body, mind and soul with exclusive offers for Australian travellers, following changes to entry requirements. Fully vaccinated travellers are no longer required to show proof of a pre-arrival negative RT-PCR test or undergo an arrival test, though registering for a Thailand Pass is still required.

Chiva-Som, globally acclaimed pioneer in wellness and lifestyle transformation, is not only welcoming guests back to its ‘haven of life’, but has also announced a series of bespoke wellness offers, benefits and savings for bookings until the end of October 2022.

The beachfront resort’s program brings together western diagnostic skills and eastern philosophies to revitalise the mind, body and spirit. Discover wellness cuisine where food should nourish and enhance, never deprive as it’s healthy, nutritious, flavourful, and tailored to individual requirements and goals.

Specifically designed to address the challenges that COVID-19 has brought, Chiva-Som recently launched four new wellness retreats, adding to its already comprehensive offering. ‘Nature’s Embrace’ emphasises the healing effects of nature, with outdoor activities to rebalance the body and mind, while ‘Senior Wellness’ builds on gentle exercise, a nutritious diet and quality sleep to increase energy levels, cognitive function, stability and mobility. The ‘Immune Resilience’ retreat incorporates nutrient-rich cuisine, detoxifying treatments and mindful exercise to naturally boost the body’s defences. ‘Gut Health’ consists of a personalised meal program that places natural ingredients, probiotics and fibre at the forefront to restore the integrity of the gut microbiome.

Promotional packages

The longer you stay, Chiva-Som offers extra wellness treatments. Book five nights and enjoy retreat inclusions of seven nights, with the number increasing for longer retreats.

Activities on offer are wide-ranging and ever-evolving. Joining group sessions puts you in contact with like-minded participants, while one-on-ones continue the focus of your personal progress.

Another bonus, entitles holidaymakers to a 50 per cent saving on their first night if they arrive from Australia and check into the resort after 11.00pm. As you start your retreat program the following day, why not combine this offer with Chiva-Som’s Restore and Revive, Season of Renewal and Wellness Plus offers. They are attractive bundles.

Chiva-Som was voted winner of the ‘Top Destination Spa Resort in the World’ category in the Condé Nast Traveler’s 2021 Readers’ Choice Awards.

If you book a seven-night (or more) Restore and Revive retreat, there is a 15 per cent saving on the stay, while those booking a stay of 10 nights or more will also receive a complimentary room upgrade.

If you choose the Season of Renewal promotion for three nights or more you will enjoy VIP benefits, including complimentary one-way fast-track airport service and a cash voucher per person, per night to spend on additional wellness treatments and services.

Those booking the Wellness Plus package will receive complimentary additional treatments and services on top of their retreat program when staying five nights or more:
