1/5
Anantara Si Kao, Krabi, Thailand
Cascading water, fragrant gardens and a rustic elegance reflect the tropical jungle and vibrant blue sea that surround boutique retreat Anantara Si Kao Resort & Spa, a 90 minutes drive south of Krabi. Add in a buzzy beach club on Koh Kradan, an Ayurvedic spa and the potential for countless adventures to stimulate even the most jaded of travellers, and you have the essence of a pinch-yourself-to-believe-it beach escape.
Smith extra: THB500 towards food and drink (excluding alcohol) and THB500 towards a a massage at Anantara Spa Si Kao
2/5
Navutu Dreams Resort & Spa, Siam Reap, Cambodia
It may feel like a blissful beach retreat, but Navutu Dreams Resort & Spa in Siem Reap is actually conveniently perched on the rural outskirts of Cambodia's famous inland temple town. Upping the oasis factor are two pools, tropical gardens, smart Italian and Khmer dining and an intimate spa, while light white-and-blue contemporary boudoirs give a nod to soothing Mediterranean style.
Smith extra: A bottle of prosecco
3/5
MesaStila, Yogyakarta, Indonesia
Ringed by eight volcanoes, MesaStila Hotel's isolated mountain setting near Yogyakarta is pretty inspiring, but once you venture within its gates, it gets even better: the antique-filled villas are set in 25 hectares of lovingly tended gardens, coffee plants and authentic Dutch colonial buildings. You won’t be surprised to hear the coffee is a highlight here (as is the award-winning spa, which has one of Indonesia’s only Turkish hammam baths, and makes exclusive uses of estate-grown and processed products).
Smith extra: Twenty per cent off your first spa treatment and a bag of coffee on departure; GoldSmith members get 20 per cent off their second spa treatment too
4/5
Villa Samadhi, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Visiting Kuala Lumpur? Escape the city and hide out here. Taking its name from the Sanskrit word for ‘journey,’ Villa Samadhi offers a luxurious departure from the hustle of town, but is accessibly set in Malaysian capital's leafy embassy district. It’s a seductive Thai-styled temptress with lantern-lit paths, a curvaceous central pool and ultra-private rooms…
Smith extra: A gift of a sarong or chopsticks on departure; guests staying in the Sarang or higher room category will also receive a bottle of wine
5/5
Hotel Penaga, Penang, Malaysia
Corbusier and Eames don't usually kick back together on original Peranakan floor tiles, but at the boutique Hotel Penaga, the modernist marvels and vibrant Malay details go hand in hand. Set in a grand central building and rows of shophouses that straddle two blocks, this designer den adds a dash of glitz to boho Georgetown.
Smith extra: A welcome drink for each guest
