Unwind in stylish seclusion
Sri Panwa in Phuket is the prefect antidote to the hectic city lifestyle.
THERE are times when travel is all about seeing as much as you can of one place - a 24/7 holiday itinerary that refuses to let up until you've memorised its population numbers, iconic landmarks, nearest factory outlet and the face of the cyclist that almost ran over you.
Then there is the holiday where you do the opposite - learn nothing, eat everything, watch the sun set because it's easier than waking up early to catch the dawn - and be blissfully happy for it.
This is what happens when you get an opportunity to stay at Sri Panwa - which is in Phuket but may as well be an independent tropical hamlet set within acres of rolling green hills offering the ultimate combination of forest and ocean.
