With the support of the 'Middle Eastern Zhen Huan', another one was opened in Qatar

🏠Store Name: Chiva-Som Health and Wellness Resort 📍Address: 73 / 4 - 6 Soi Moo Baan Nong Kae Phet Kasem Road, Nong Kae Hua Hin, Thailand - I had the privilege of having lunch yesterday at the Puli Hotel with Khun Krip, the second-generation successor of Chiva-Som, and only then did I learn that there is such a hotel in the world where you cannot use mobile phones or cameras to take pictures during your wellness stay, which I immediately added to my 2024 to-do list. - The elderly gentleman is already 70 years old, and his father was a well-known Thai economist who founded Chiva-Som, which has become the ceiling of the global wellness resort industry. The wellness services and courses at the health resort are extremely luxurious. Since its opening in 1995, it has hosted countless political and business celebrities. Because of their low profile, they rarely promote themselves actively, and there is very little publicly available information. During the 2022 World Cup, with the support of the 'Middle Eastern Zhen Huan', the Queen Consort of Qatar, Chiva-Som opened its second wellness resort in the northern coastal area of Qatar. - Chiva-Som is located in Hua Hin, the Thai royal resort area, and it takes a 3-hour drive after landing in Bangkok to reach it. I asked the head of the resort yesterday, and he reassured me that they have a shuttle service at Bangkok airport. In 1910, when it was still an obscure little fishing village, the brother of King Rama VI of Thailand came here to hunt and discovered this stunning paradise on earth. In 1920, King Rama VI built a royal holiday palace 'Deer Garden' in Hua Hin, which gradually became a vacation spot competed for by the royalty and upper-class celebrities. The meaning of Chiva-Som in Thai is 'Haven of Life,' and it is the only wellness resort in the world that has been awarded one of the top three SPA destinations by Conde Nast Traveller UK reader’s for eight consecutive years, and in 2006, it was awarded the best SPA destination by Travel Leisure.
