When Six Senses very own Mercedes picks you up at the airport and hands you ice cold towels to freshen up with, before whisking you away to a private marina for your 40 minute speed boat trip to the Island, you just know your in for something a little bit special. On arrival the manager greets you off the boat and staff are at hand to take your luggage by buggy up the hillside to your very own villa. It is at this point that you are introduced to your GEM for the duration of your stay. They take to do with your every request and programme their mobile into your villa phone in case you need them. This place is paradise. six Senses hotels are all about sustainability and environmentally friendly living. So much so that the very water that you drink is treated and filtered to the highest standards on site. You have a small basket in your villa, not for rubbish, but to collect your free range eggs from the chickens before giving them to one of the chefs to cook to your specification for breakfast.
A typical day here is yoga at the hilltop lodge before breakfast, a spa before lunch, a stroll on their private beach before relaxing with a glass of their wine by your very own infinity pool looking out over the stunning panoramic vista. We sampled the curry club on the second evening. It was an intimate affair involving eight of us around the head chef at his cooking station. High up above the glass floored restaurant below. He cooked wonderful traditional Thai dishes for us and talked us through the preparation of them and every ingredient he added in front of us. A fantastic culinary experience. We sampled red Thai duck, green Thai soup and beautifully fresh Asian prawns to list a few.
The spa is set deep within the complex in what looks like a bamboo forest! Traditional Thai massages are a must and do not be afraid when they climb on your back before walking down you on their hands and knees. It was a fantastic afternoons relaxation and one we will not forget for a long time. When your buggy arrives to take you back to your villa you literally pour into it your that relaxed and rejuvenated.
Six senses Yao Noi think of everything to ensure your completely catered for. The beach after dinner is transformed into an outdoor cinema. You are over looking James Bond island after all so why not watch the very movie that was filmed on that actual island. How cool is that?! 
A different film every night is great post dinner entertainment and a perfect place to kick back with a night cap before retiring for the evening.
On our last evening we had dinner served to us in our outdoor lounge. Staff came round before hand and lit candles everywhere to set the mood. Not that much work is needed to set the mood in Six Senses Yao Noi I can assure you. Our waiter for the evening called in every 20 minutes or so to top glasses up, replace water and course after course, it was a 
perfect romantic evening. You are located right in the middle of Phang Nga Bay over looking beautiful lime stone keys that rise high out of the water. A jaw dropping magical location. A wonderful heavenly retreat to rejuvenate your senses, as close to perfection as you will probably get in every sense of the word.

We spent two jam packed days and nights in Hot Gay Paris recently. Staying in The small boutique Hotel Le Tourville, it was perfectly located for exploring and with the hotel situated close to lively pedestrianised shopping streets lined with traditional Parisian cafes and restaurants bustling day and night, it could not have been better positioned.
