Relax and rejuvenate on Asia’s best beach at Havelock Island – Beach No. 7. Enjoy the privacy of the resort from your cottage or villa and wake-up in your four-poster bed to the chirping of colourful birds. Swim in warm crystal-clear tropical waters and work on your tan as you lie down on powder-white sand. And sip your favourite iced sundowners in the lounge bar, while the fresh catch of the day is being grilled for you. This is the perfect long-weekend break for you and your companion.

On arrival, transfer to your boutique retreat on Beach No. 7.
Day 2: In Havelock Island
Go snorkelling at Elephant Beach, just 40 min by boat from your resort. This beach offers snorkelers calm blue shallow waters and is the perfect spot for snorkellers of all skills. The boat goes right up to the beach and it’s so easy to slip on your gear and just start snorkelling. It’s also a great place to just spend the day lying on the beach and relaxing. The beach is very scenic with fallen trees and white sand giving the photographer some interesting shots. The reef here starts very close to shore at a depth of about 1m. The large reef is mostly made up of hard coral and has plenty of marine life.
