Yoga holiday on Koh Ngai, Thailand, independent reviews
 Reviewed 25 Aug 2008 by Neil Harvey |  |
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Koh Ngai is an ideal escape from modern life - no cars and no roads. You wake to the sound of the sea and the wind in the trees and that continues all day long. We were upgraded to Tarwapin Resort - beautiful. Absolute bliss!!
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Although this was the wet season, we had 6 days of sunshine, only the last day rained non-stop, but was great to just chill out.
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?
Food was bought from Trang (nearest town on the mainland) or sourced locally from the fishermen and brought to the island by local fishermen. Any trips were led by local staff and boats crewed by local people. Electricity was limited to the hours of 5pm to 10am the following day.
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Fantastic experience - would definitely recommend the holiday and the company to others.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Padi Open Water at Blue View Divers. The way they receive their guests and treat their local employees. They make you feel special!
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
This is not a fancy place. It’s clean, friendly and simple. Prepare yourself for frogs, bats and geckos. Flip flops are the only shoes you need.
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?
I feel local people benefited. Small businesses where used for laundry, cocking classes, boat trips etc.
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Fantastic! Lovely people. Keira our excellent yoga teacher is the best. She made us want to get up at 6.30 am for your first yoga of the day. Highly recommended!
