There is a growing trend for holidays to be more active and less passive; more about getting fit rather than spending too much time poolside with sugary drinks in hand. If you are looking for an active holiday Koh Samui, then there are plenty of options for you.
Koh Samui is one of those places that seems built for activity; its landscapes call for exploration. As an island it is ringed by beautiful beaches, coves and bays. There is almost every kind of coastline from long sandy stretches to rocky outcrops that jut into the sea. A swimmer’s paradise – especially as there is no time of year when it is not swimming weather, except perhaps for the short rainy season in November.
And despite the busy towns of Lamai and Chaweng, once you get away into the interior, the island is surprisingly pristine. You will see palm plantations, jungle and orchards – and relatively few houses. The interior has its trails and these are unfrequented – always let someone know where you are going if you venture off into the interior.
As you can see, Koh Samui is pretty much ideal when it comes to adventure. Here at Lamai Fitness Retreat we offer a full spectrum of activities if you are interested in an active holiday Koh Samui. We are based on Fitness Street in Lamai, in the southern part of the island and as such we are close to both the sea and nature.
Our premises are ideal for an active holiday Koh Samui. We have a fitness center that has everything that you will need for exercising of many kinds. We also have a dedicated Hyrox gym; this new hybrid sport has caught on globally with its twinning of running and gym exercises – it’s a superb way to develop fitness and enjoy yourself at the same time. We also offer Muay Thai along with plenty of other gentler ways to boost your fitness – check out our website for more details.
An active holiday Koh Samui isn’t just about the programs; it’s just as much about those who will train you. We have experts in different disciplines and they will give you the help and encouragement you need; they will know just how far you can push yourself without encountering burnout or injury.
Many visitors stay with us directly as we have our own accommodation close to Lamai Fitness Retreat. Lodgings are in clean, simple and elegant rooms. If you stay with us, it will give you the chance to socialize with others who are on our programs and will bring a greater sense of conviviality to your holiday. However, if you would like outside accommodation, there is a very satisfying range in Lamai, from the very simple right up to luxury resorts.
At Lamai Fitness Retreat we prioritize not just an active holiday Koh Samui but we also go to great lengths to provide you with approaches and habits that you can take home with you after your holiday. During your time with us you will be making changes; taking on new habits and experiencing different approaches to exercise that you may well never have thought of – it would be of little use if you made great progress during your holiday only to see it tail off once you return home. We give you plenty of help not just for the moment, but also for the future. If you are interested in an active holiday Koh Samui, you will already know that it’s going to be a vacation with a difference – that you will learn from it and be able to bring that knowledge back to your everyday life.
We hope to encourage you not with just new ways or better ways to exercise but just as importantly to learn what foods are good for you. We can advise you on nutrition and help you formulate an interesting and healthy diet. And while you are on Koh Samui, you will naturally be well fed. We provide nutritious meals that are the opposite of boring. Meanwhile, on the island you will be able to explore all the different foodstuffs that are available here. Some guests go even deeper into nutrition and have Thai cooking classes while they are staying with us – there are many dedicated chefs on Samui who offer classes in their restaurants.
We also help you de-stress while you are with us – there are plenty of ways we can help with this and we encourage you to find what will work for you. It is a paradox but an active holiday Koh Samui should also include plenty of relaxation in order to fuel the body and keep it in an optimal state.
