Spending Christmas in Thailand can be a bit of an unconventional feeling.
After all, in some countries the festive season is normally a time for cold weather, snug fireplaces and traditional festivities… But it doesm’t have to be !
Instead, you can trade in crisp reds for cool blues, swap winter chills for a warm breeze and replace the worries which come from hosting Christmas lunch, with a carefree lunch.
You see, while Thailand is predominantly a buddhist country, it is a country that is very accomodating when it comes to covering the festivities of other religions.
Trees go up, tinsel lines windows and special events are put on across the country to celebrate.
Of course, the events vary based upon where in Thailand you are located.
With December being one of the busiest months in Bangkok it is a great time to dress the city up and you will find the main shopping cebtres and the high end hotels putting up a great fairy lights display together with Christmas decorations and super high Christmas trees.
However if you are looking to be close to a tropical beach to spend your Christmas holiday then consider the tropical island of Koh Samui as the place to be.
When it comes to celebrating the festive period, no Christmas day is complete without eating until you need to undo the button on your trousers.
The options for where you can eat lunch at Christmas are bountiful across Koh Samui, as the island is renowed for its incredible food scene everywhere you go.
However, it is important to remember that not everywhere a Christmas lunch in its traditional form will be seved. Turkey with all the trimmings is very much a Western tradition, and as a result, requires an internationally trained chef.
There are a variety of restaurants across Samui which have such chefs available, and will host a traditional festive lunch for all to enjoy.
These events can book up pretty fast, so it is important to ensure you get your reservation in as early as possible.
Alternatively, there are villas available such as Siam House Samui where you can enjoy your Christmas in a tradional way and atmosphere with you and your family.
Authentic Thai meals and seafood barbeques are popular lunches of choice at Christmas, but regardless of your food preference, as Christmas is a time for celebrating we recommend to book The Siam House Samui in house chef who can be available to you.
After all, what could be more celebratory than waking up and opening presents together with your family, before going for a walk along the beach whilst a festive lunch is prepared for you.
Perhaps the thought of relaxing in the sun whilst you recover from your Christmas food coma, before enjoying a swim in the 27m long free-form pool with waterfall and eating deserts as the sun sets over the ocean.
We know, we know, it sounds pretty perfect but at Siam House samui, this dream can come true.
For many, Christmas symbolises more than just faith , peace or joy, it symbolises family.
So when it comes to choosing your festive accomadation, you will want to book somewhere with the right facilities available to ensure you can truly enjoy time together as a family.
The private luxury villa Siam House Samui has a unique offering.
Whether it is the stunning ocean views, the pool or the beach at your footsteps, it will elevate your Christmas to the next level, helping to ensure you have a truly memorable Christmas.
