Travel Temptations

Elephant Hills Phuket, Thailand

They offer 2-4 day nature soft adventure tours in and around the stunningly beautiful Khao Sok National Park area with luxury tents for night time accommodations.

The Elephant Camp comprises tailor-made luxury tents and has successfully been operated for over 10 years, becoming a popular destination for family vacations.

Both camps are situated in the Khao Sok National Park in Southern Thailand, approximately two hours apart from each other, close to famous beaches and honeymoon destinations like Phuket, Khao Lak, Krabi and even Koh Samui. www.elephanthills.com

Antalya Golf Club

Antalya, Turkey

To play one great golf course is always a challenge. To play two is a rare privilege indeed. At Antalya Golf Club the challenge awaits…

The PGA Sultan and The Pasha Course:

The courses, designed by leading architects European Golf Design, together with design consultant and Senior Tour Professional Davis Jones, provide not only a challenge to golfers of all abilities but also wonderful surroundings in which to enjoy your game. The playing surfaces are second to none in their quality, stunning landscapes and perfect weather all combine for an unforgettable golfing experience.

The PGA Sultan Course:

18 Holes Championship Golf Course

Par 71, 6477 Metres

The Sultan beckons the heartiest of golfers to take par 71, 6477 metres challenge. European Golf Design and David Jones spared nothing to maintain the competitive level of the course, while at the same time blending it seamlessly into the forest environment. Created for the discerning golfer, the PGA Sultan delivers a stern but rewarding test of golfing ability that any keen player will relish, a true yardstick by which to gauge skill.

The Pasha Course:

18 Holes, Par 72, 5731 Metres

At an inviting 5731 metres, you may think that The Pasha would be a walk in the woods but don’t fooled by the scenery! The Pasha will test the skills of high and low handicaps alike with a combination of different challenges. Tricky dog legs, cleverly placed bunkers and undulating greens will ensure that the more experienced golfer must think over each shot carefully. The shorter length coupled with generous fairways will not unfairly punish the higher handicapper for any wayward shots.
