Treehouse Villas GM Emphasizes 'Slow Travel' to Combat Digital Overload
Explore how Treehouse Villas is redefining luxury travel with a focus on tranquility and connection to nature.
In a recent discussion between Gary Marshall, CEO of TDM, and Urs Aebi, Group General Manager, insights were shared on Treehouse Villas Koh Yao Noi. This serene retreat, established seven years ago, promotes a philosophy of harmonious living with nature.
A Sanctuary of High-Design “Shabby Chic”
Opting for a refined “shabby chic” design instead of ostentation, Treehouse Villas provides luxurious accommodations in an adults-only environment, featuring just 30 intimate one-bedroom villas.
- The Signature Treehouse: A two-level gem with a bedroom nestled in the canopy and a private pool below.
- The Beachfront Pool Villas: Single-story villas that provide direct access to the beach.
- The Iconic Bath: Each villa includes a uniquely designed bathtub, often humorously mistaken for a hammock.
Clandestine Experiences and Soulful Luxury
Guests are encouraged to embrace the philosophy of “Breathe more easily,” focusing on intentional travel. The resort offers opportunities for wildlife viewing and sends guests handwritten postcards with concierge services.
Experiences Offered:
- The Marine Collection: Private tours in Phang Nga Bay led by local guides.
- The Jungle Spa: Offering relaxing treatments in the picturesque environment.
- Wellness & Terroir: Activities include yoga and hands-on experiences in the resort’s organic gardens.
The Honeymooners’ Hideaway
With average stays spanning four to five nights, Treehouse Villas serves as an ideal venue for bespoke weddings, providing unique settings for intimate ceremonies amidst stunning landscapes. As noted by Urs Aebi, the focus here is on finding peace rather than adding excess, making it a perfect escape from the digital world.
