Having visited nine stunning Club Escapes destinations in Australia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Maldives, and a Club Resort in Thailand, Anantara Vacation Club Points Owner, Fran McDaniel, and her family know what it’s like to experience moments of magic on your holiday escape.

Here are just a few of the most memorable experiences that Fran and her family have experienced with Anantara Vacation Club:

Anantara Kihavah Villas

At the end of a wonderful holiday at Anantara Kihavah Villas through Royal Adventures Programme, we wanted a later airport transfer. Guest Services organised a sea plane transfer from a neighbouring island and arranged a private motor launch transfer free of charge. On the way, the boat crew spotted some dolphins so we played with them in the water before watching our pick-up flight land in front of us and take us home!

Anantara Dhigu Resort & Spa

Club Escapes at Anantara Dhigu Resort & Spa has plenty of activities for young children and families with teens. The bikes on the island were a great way to get around, and it was fun to be able to take the boat to Veli Island and to kayak over to Guli Fushi Island for a fantastic snorkelling.

Anantara Si Kao Resort & Spa

We loved this resort! It is so quiet and peaceful. We went to the resort's private island to snorkel during the day and watched the sun go down from the beach house, with sunset drinks and some games. It was also great to rent bikes and kayak through the mangrove swamps.

Anantara Vacation Club Bophut Koh Samui

Being given lanterns to light on the beautiful beach here was really special.

Royal Adventures at Anantara Kihavah Villas

Our kids were out of Thailand, so we grabbed the chance to have a perfect escape for a few days. We booked a Royal Adventure in the Maldives and stayed in an Over Water Pool Villa. From the minute we stepped off the plane in Male to the minute we left, we were treated amazingly well and made to feel like VIP guests; nothing was too much trouble. As we walked around the resort, everyone greeted us by name and the staff seemed to know exactly where we were going and what we wanted. We had complimentary bubbles at breakfast and a golf buggy waiting for us when we finished dinner. The day trip on a boat was incredible – snorkeling, stingrays, dolphins and a picnic on a deserted island… so many amazing memories!
