With a rising dollar making some destinations weigh a little heavier on traveller’s wallets, it’s good to know there are still some places where you can book stand out value and good times for your clients.
So whether you’re booking a trip for a family, a couple or for a client wanting some much needed chill out time out on their own, Thailand’s back on the map as a destination positively bursting with great value holiday options for all.
And right now the award winning Centara Hotels and Resorts who have the lion share of amazing properties throughout Thailand and Asia are offering an upgrade deal for all bookings made before 30 November 2015.
How does a FREE upgrade to half-board including daily free breakfast and dinner sound?
Sounds to us like more holiday dollars for your clients to spend on the special things that matter the most on a holiday.
So to offer even more value for your clients, here’s 5 ways we recommend they spend their extra cashola while they’re there.
1. Leave life behind with more spas and pampering
Working life is stressful. Holidays in Thailand aren’t.
Take advantage of the great value and heavenly 5 star pampering on offer at places like the SPA Cenvaree Experience at The Centara Grand Beach Resort or Centara Karon Resort in Phuket.
With gorgeous facilities equipped like sunken Jacuzzis, Vichy shower rooms and luxurious nail salons and treatments such as Ayurveda therapies or their three hour Thai Harmony Four Hands Signature Massage starting from AUD $117 (could be cheaper) you’ll be walking on air minus the money you’d pay in Australia.
2. Enjoy epic Waterparks for everyone. And for FREE.
Lazy river time… Cocktail please….
Some of the Centara properties have incredible water parks designed for everyone to enjoy. So whether you’re in for some wallowing in the heat, rumbling with the kids or getting horizontal in a quiet zone with a cocktail in your hand you’ll be more than taken care of.
The Centara Grand Mirage Beach Resort in Pattaya for example (pictured above) has it’s own ‘Lost World’ water park, set amongst a gentle jungle, a long and lazy river, waterfalls and rope bridges. Right next to the main beach, it has five swimming pools including an adults-only, infinity and kids pool, 12 waterslides, pavilions and Jacuzzis.
The big and little kid’s key draw card Monsoon Island features water guns, miniature geysers and jumbo water buckets for the younger kids. Best of all, it’s totally free for all guests. Score!
3. Did someone say Shopping?
The Jungceylon Shopping Complex
Do we really need to tell you about the shopping in Thailand? Of course not! You know the deal. From market bargaining at one end of the strip through to high-end labels, global brands and great value uber cool boutique Thai fashion brands at the other, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
Many of Centara’s properties are located near the main shopping hubs on Phuket, Koh Samui or Pattaya and run regular, free shuttles to and from the main centres so you can easily load up your discount booty.
Take a big bag, or better still buy two while you’re there.
4. Upgrade your room for even more value

Upgrade to The Centara Villas, Phuket
Saving your dollars on your daily holiday outgoings with the half board upgrade means it could be time to dial up the accommodation and upgrade your holiday experience. You’ve travelled all that way. Might as well spoil yourself.
All Centara Hotels and resorts offer a range of room types for you and yours to luxuriate in. From classic Thai styled rooms through to contemporary and beautifully, designed private pool villas and Royal suites with indoor and outdoor living spaces. Oh yes! The choices are all yours.
5. More date nights = more good times

Date night sundowners at The Centara Grand Beach Rest Samui
Ok this one’s for all the parents out there. FACT: Babysitting in Australia can be an expensive business.
So given holidays are all about re-connecting and kicking back, its nice to know parents will be able to take advantage of some late nights or days out sans the kids thanks to Centara’s kids clubs and very affordable nanny services.
Keen to sample it for yourself?
Centara Hotels and Resorts is encouraging Australian and New Zealand travel professionals to experience their product first-hand and is offering industry rates for all registered agents.
