The van eases up a palm-lined road and the island unfolds in frames: a golden Buddha catching the glare, a stoic Guanyin reflected in a lotus pool, and jungle that smells of wet earth and wild ginger.

Pickup from 163+ accommodations is included; the driver will confirm the exact time the evening before—expect to be ready about 30 minutes before departure time.
