Travelling to Phuket was an impromptu and spontaneous decision. The entire planning of this trip was held in secrecy, simply because it was a surprise birthday trip for Bryan from Sheryl. I still can recall how I almost let the cat out of the bag not once but on many different occasions! Every day was spend counting down, and when that day finally arrived, we had a difficult-fun time trying to avoid been seen by Bryan at the airport. I would say that it was a sweet success getting him surprised.

Our accommodation was also planned by la mademoiselle: Sheryl herself. And that’s how I landed myself at this beautiful 5 month old resort – U Zenmaya Phuket. Unlike my first trip to Phuket (read it here), U Zenmaya was one of our highlights for the trip. Having been 590 miles away from home, the least thing I needed was checking in to some filthy place to sleep my nights away. On contradictory to my previous accommodation, U Zenmaya is truly one of the best places for a healthy and revitalising break.

I didn’t mean to brag but we were seriously lucky because our package includes a 2 hours spa session EVERYDAY for ALL 6 OF US. In addition, with a mixture of deluxe seaview and junior seaview pool access rooms, we filled the entire level so we practically leave our doors open because it’s just us! And all the 3 room shares a private pool! Each room is equipped with in-room Jacuzzis, a large terrace/patio. I honestly have nothing but only praises for the place.

Dinner of the night was served at Number 6 Red Chair Seafood. Because J and I had such a yummy and fulfilling experience there previously, we brought the entire group over. With our heads filled with excitement, we kind of forgotten that the previous trip was 2 years ago and so we took quite a while to search for the stall. Despite all these, it was definitely an happy tummies night.
