Hāʻawi ka huakaʻi ʻo Thailand hope loa i ke ʻano hihiu a me ka detox uila

ʻO kekahi o nā pūʻulu moku kaʻawale, mamao loa, kokoke i Thailand, akā hiki ʻole ke komo, kokoke i ka honua.

E wehe ʻia ana ka hale hoʻokipa maikaʻi mua loa ma ka Hikina Hema ʻo Mergui Archipelago ma hope o kēia makahiki, e hāʻawi ana i ka exclusivity, hōʻoluʻolu, a me ka huakaʻi ʻoluʻolu i kahi huakaʻi hou ʻole.

Aia ma ke kapakai o Myanmar a me Thailand, Wa Ale Resort, ua hoʻonohonoho ʻia e hoʻokipa i kāna mau malihini mua ma ʻOkakopa 2018. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia e National Geographic a me The Wall Street Journal's 'Far & Away' ma ke ʻano he mea i manaʻo nui ʻia e wehe ʻia i kēia makahiki, ua manaʻo nui ka eco-resort i ka mālama ʻana a me ka wāwae ʻole. ʻoluʻolu a me ka hoʻolilo ʻana i ke kaiapuni kūlohelohe maoli i ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi no ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi ʻike.

ʻO ka 'back-to-nature' resort, ka manaʻo o Benchmark Asia's Christopher Kingsley, he papahana hoʻokele kaiaola, aia ma loko o ka Pāka Lahui ʻo Lampi. "ʻO kā mākou manaʻo e kono aku i nā malihini e ʻike i ka nani maoli o ka Myeik Archipelago i loko o kahi hoʻomoana nani e paipai ana i ka mālama pono a me ka mālama ʻana i ke kaiapuni. ʻO Wa Ale kahi hale mālama mālama maikaʻi i hoʻolālā ʻia e hiki ai i ka poʻe huakaʻi ke komo i kekahi o nā wahi i ʻike ʻole ʻia ma ka honua no ka manawa mua.

Ua kapa ʻia ʻo 'ka mokupuni ʻo paradaiso hope loa', ʻo ka Mergui Archipelago he ʻāina nui i kūkulu ʻole ʻia, ʻaʻohe palena no nā mea āpau a hiki i kēia manawa. He 800 mau mokupuni noho ʻole ʻia i hoʻopuehu ʻia ma 600km ma ke Kai Andaman, ʻo nā malihini i ka pae moku kaʻawale kekahi o ka poʻe mua e makaʻala i ka wao nahele maʻemaʻe, hehi wāwae i nā kahakai one keʻokeʻo mehameha, hoe ma waena o nā ululāʻau mangrove kahiko a kipa aku i nā kauhale o ka lāhui Moken holo moana.

ʻAʻole ʻike nui ʻia ʻo Mergui Archipelago, ʻoiai ma waena o nā poʻe ʻoihana huakaʻi, ma muli o kona wahi mamao 'off-the-beaten-track' a me ka nele o nā ʻoihana a me nā lako. Ua hōʻike ʻia ka hui mokupuni ʻē aʻe a pohihihi ma ka Bay of Bengal i nā puke Biggles mai ka makahiki 1930 a ua ʻōlelo ʻia ma ka 1965 James Bond spy thriller Thunderball, akā a hiki i ka makahiki 1997 ʻaʻole i kipa ʻia e nā haole no ka hapalua haneli.

ʻOiai he kakaikahi wale nō nā waʻa luʻu i ʻae ʻia mai Thailand mai Phuket i nā makahiki ʻelua i hala aku nei, ua ʻike ʻia ka wahi paʻakikī i nā pōʻai luʻu no kona ola moana kupaianaha, me nā kukuna manta a me nā manō. ʻO nā noiʻi kula ʻē aʻe, i hana pinepine ʻia e nā ʻepekema ʻē aʻe i ka wā e wehe ai ʻo Myanmar i ka honua ma hope o nā makahiki he ʻumi o ka noho aliʻi ʻana o ka pūʻali koa, ua hōʻike i kahi ʻano like ʻole o nā mea kanu a me nā holoholona, ​​​​ʻo ia hoʻi nā ʻano lāʻau kakaʻikahi a me ka pōʻino.

Mai kahi mākaʻikaʻi kipa, kūpono nā mokupuni no ka luʻu ʻana, snorkeling, kayak, hoe-boarding, hele kūlohelohe, nānā manu a me nā holoholona hihiu a me nā safaris kahakai, me ka ʻokoʻa ʻokoʻa ʻo ka nele o nā mea mākaʻikaʻi ʻē aʻe.

ʻO ka nele o ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka ʻāina i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me Phuket e pili ana ma muli o ka manaʻo politika a me ka hoʻomalu ʻana i nā palena - a mai kona kaulana ʻana he wahi hewa ʻole no ka poʻe pōā a me ka lawaiʻa ʻole. Ma kahi o ka mana o nā aupuni ʻelua, 95% o nā mokupuni e hāʻule i loko o nā palena o Myanmar, me 40 mau mokupuni wale nō ma ke kaulahao o Thailand.

I kēia mau makahiki i hala iho nei, ua hiki i nā malihini ke noho i ka pō ma ka mokupuni ʻo Macleod ma ka huakaʻi mua o ka pae ʻāina. ʻO Myanmar Andaman Resort, a ma 2017 ka ʻEko-Resort ʻo Boulder Bay wehe ʻia ma kekahi o nā mokupuni ʻē aʻe, me nā mokupuni safaris ma luna o ka Kai Gipsy ka lawe ʻana i ka poʻe malihini e holo moku. ʻO ka wehe mālie ʻana o Wa Ale Resort i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kau maloʻo i kēia makahiki ʻo ia ke kolu o ka hoʻomohala ʻana ma ia wahi.

Aia ka Wa Ale Island Resort i loko o kahi wahi i ho'omalu 'ia ma ke ao holo'oko'a, ma kahi o 'elua hola ma ka moku holo wikiwiki mai ke kapakai o Myanmar Hema. ʻO ka mokupuni ʻo Wal Ale he 36-square-kilomita (9,000-acre) ʻāpana o ka paka ʻāina moana wale nō o Myanmar, ʻo Lampi, me kāna 1,000 mau ʻano ʻano like ʻole e hiki ai ke komo i ka papa inoa o ka UNESCO World Heritage tentative.

Hāʻawi i ka ʻike. ʻO nā huakaʻi huakaʻi mālie ma ka ʻāina a me ka wai, ʻo Wa Ale resort ka manaʻo e hoʻihoʻi i nā malihini i ke ʻano, e ʻimi ana i nā koʻakoʻa nui, nā ululāʻau ʻōmaʻomaʻo, nā moena kai, a me nā mangroves kahiko, me nā manawa kūpono e hālāwai ai me nā holoholona hihiu, me nā honu kai, dugong, dolphin, manta rays, kingfishers, macaques, hornbills, brahminy kites, parrot fish and snapper. Hoʻolako ʻia me nā mea luʻu a me nā loea ʻōlelo Pelekania no nā huakaʻi luʻu i nā wahi luʻu a me nā ana kai i hiki ʻole ke hele mua ʻia, ua kūpono ka hale hoʻokipa i ka poʻe e ʻimi nei i ka hoʻokele wai i waena o nā wai turquoise, a me ka poʻe e makemake ana i ka maluhia a me ka maluhia mamao loa mai nā pilikia. o ke ola hou.

E lawe ana kekahi moku waiwai hou i na malihini mai ke awa o Kawthaung, kokoke i ke kaona o Ranong o Thailand, a hiki i ka mokupuni o Wa Ale, e pae ana ma ke kai kai o ka hale hookipa i puni e na mangroves. ʻO nā mea hana hou a hana hou ʻia kekahi hiʻohiʻona o ka hale hoʻokipa, me nā lāʻau waʻa kahiko i hoʻohana ʻia no ke ala hele ma waena o ka ululāʻau ululāʻau ulu a hiki i ka hale hoʻokipa nui a me kahi ʻai, aia ma kahi piʻi one e nānā ana i ke kai. Me kāna kīhāpai kīhini ponoʻī, nā meaʻai iʻa i ʻohi mau ʻia, a me kahi chef ʻelima hōkū mai UK, haʻaheo ka hale hoʻokipa iā ia iho i ka hana ʻana i ka meaʻai ʻĀsia-Mediterranean maikaʻi, hou, ʻano hou, me nā meaʻai i loko o ka pā hale i uhi ʻia i ka lāʻau ākea wale nō. ʻO nā koho i nā lā piha i ka hana a i ʻole ka leʻaleʻa i hoʻokele ʻia e ke kai a me nā makemake o nā malihini. Ua hana ʻia kahi hale ʻaina ma kahakai nui me nā pani kahiko a me nā lāʻau i hoʻōla ʻia mai nā hale i wāwahi ʻia ma ka ʻāina, a aia kahi hale hauʻoli i loko o ka ululāʻau, a me kahi spa e hāʻawi ana i ka lomilomi me nā huahana kūloko.

Ma ke kai heʻe nalu mālie e pili ana, hiki ke loaʻa i ke kai haʻahaʻa ma kahakai, a i ʻole ma ke ala kaʻa uila ma luna o kahi puʻu liʻiliʻi, he 11 mau hale lole i hohola ʻia ma kahi kilomita ka lōʻihi e hoʻolako ai i kahi noho nui, me ʻekolu mau wahi huna ma luna o ka lāʻau e hāʻawi ana i nā poʻe i ka manaʻo. o ka noho ana iloko o ka ululaau. ʻO nā villas kahakai kūʻokoʻa, i hui pū ʻia me ke kaiapuni kūloko a hoʻonani ʻia i nā hue kūlohelohe, hāʻawi i ka mea maikaʻi loa i ka hōʻoluʻolu a me ka hoʻolālā ʻana, me ka nānā ʻana i nā kikoʻī a me ka hoʻolālā noʻonoʻo e hiki ai i nā malihini ke hoʻomaha a hoʻōla hou ʻia e ke kaiapuni tropical ikaika, ke kani. o ke kai e hoonanea ana i ka poe hele luhi i ka hiamoe nui. Hiki i nā villas nui o ka ʻohana ke hoʻokipa i kahi kāne a i ʻole 4 mau kānaka, ʻoiai ua hoʻolālā ʻia nā hale lāʻau pili loa no ʻelua.

Me nā limahana koʻikoʻi o ka honua a me nā limahana kūloko i koho ʻia, hāʻawi ʻo Wa Ale i kahi lawelawe ʻelima-hōkū, ʻoiai nā pilikia o ka hoʻokō ponoʻī a me ka mamao. Hāʻawi nā panela solar a me kahi mea hoʻomohala hoʻihoʻi i ka uila, hoʻoheheʻe ʻia ka wai mai kahi pūnāwai mauna, a ʻo kahi loulou ukali e hāʻawi i ka wi-fi, ʻoiai he nui nā malihini e koho i ka leʻaleʻa escapism ʻaʻohe kāmaʻa, ʻaʻohe nūhou.

ʻO ke kahakai one-keʻokeʻo ma ke kahakai nui o Wa Ale ka home o nā honu kai make, me ka hale hoʻokipa e pale ana i ko lākou mau pūnana a me ka hana ʻana i kahi hānai honu. Hiki i nā malihini ke ʻike i nā mea ʻōmaʻomaʻo, hawksbill a me nā ʻili ʻili e piʻi mai ana i ka pō i kekahi mau manawa o ka makahiki. E wehe ʻia ka hale hoʻokipa mai ʻOkakopa a Mei i kēlā me kēia makahiki, ʻo ka manawa maikaʻi loa e kipa aku ai, ma mua o ke kau ʻana o ka ua e haʻalulu nā kai a me nā wai.

ʻO ka hapalima o nā waiwai mai Wa Ale Resort e hele pololei ana i ka Lampi Foundation, a me ka hana ʻana i nā papahana mālama no ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka paka moku moana, e hana pū ana me nā kaiāulu kūloko ma nā papahana olakino, hoʻonaʻauao a me nā ola. Hiki i ka poʻe kipa ke kipa aku i nā kauhale liʻiliʻi e pili ana i kahakai, me nā kauhale ʻo Moken a me nā kahua lawaiʻa, i lilo i mea mau loa no ka mea ua paipai ʻia ʻo Moken e hoʻonoho i kēlā me kēia makahiki, a mai ka komo ʻana o nā lawaiʻa Burmese a me nā mea kālepa. Hoʻokumu ka Moken, a i ʻole ke kai gypsies, i ko lākou ola ma luna o nā waʻa lāʻau, a he poʻe hahai holoholona lākou a me ka ʻohi ʻana, e ʻimi ana i nā momi, nā pūnana manu, nā kukama, nā pūpū a me ka makuahine o ka momi. ʻElima mau kaiaulu mau ma ka mokupuni ʻo Lampi, a ua hana pū ʻo Wa Ale Resort a me ka Lampi Foundation me nā hui aupuni a me nā NGO like ʻole, me ka Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) a me Global Medical Volunteers.

Paipai ʻo Wa Ale i ka mālama pono a hoʻomau i ke kaiapuni, wahi a ka luna mua o ka hale ʻo Wa Ale Resort, ʻo American Alyssa Wyatt. "ʻAʻole pono ka noho ʻana ma ke kahua hoʻomaha no ke kino a me ka ʻuhane, pono nō hoʻi i nā holoholona hihiu a me nā kamaʻāina kūʻokoʻa."

ʻO kekahi o nā malihini kipa mua, ʻo Sampan Travel ka luna hoʻomalu ʻo Bertie Lawson, ua hauʻoli i ka ākea o kahi hoʻomoana nani i loko o ka ululāʻau, e hāʻawi ana i ka wao nahele a me ka maluhia. "Ke kū nei ʻo ia no kāna kūpaʻa a me ka mahalo i nā mea a puni, kona ʻike ʻana i ka waiwai o ka hakahaka, a me kona nānā ʻana i nā kikoʻī."

ʻO kekahi o ka poʻe malihini kipa mua ʻo Peter Steyn, Luna Hoʻoponopono o GlobeRovers Magazine, e ʻōlelo ana ka hale hoʻokipa hoʻokipa maikaʻi hou e hoʻopiha pono ana i ka wahi i ʻike ʻole ʻia, ʻike ʻole ʻia a mamao loa.

Hiki i nā malihini ke hōʻea i ka ʻīpuka o Kawthaung ma o ke kapikala ʻo Myanmar mua ʻo Yangon, me nā huakaʻi he nui i kēlā me kēia lā i Kawthaung, a i ʻole ma Ranong (me nā mokulele mai Bangkok i hāʻawi ʻia e AirAsia a me NokAir) ma ka ʻākau o Phuket, me kahi huakaʻi moku lōʻihi pōkole ma kēlā ʻaoʻao o ka muliwai Kawthaung. Pono ka visa mākaʻikaʻi, a i ʻole e-visa maʻalahi, e komo i Myanmar. Aia nā haʻalele i ka pule mai Kawthaung a hiki i Wa Ale, ʻo ia hoʻi i loko o nā hola e hiki ai i nā malihini kipa mai nā wahi ʻē aʻe o Asia, a i ʻole ma kahi mamao aku, hiki ke hoʻomaha i kahi kaʻawale, ma kekahi o nā hale hoʻokipa maikaʻi loa a kaʻawale o ka honua.
