Voting in the 2019 Luxury Lifestyle Magazine Readers’ Travel Awards (in partnership with Blue Bay Travel) is now open, giving you the opportunity to reward those operators and destinations that continue to surpass your expectations.

And because we recognise you need to invest time and energy to make these awards what they are, as a reward for your efforts we are delighted to offer you the chance to win a four-night stay at the luxurious Awei Pila Private Island Resort in Myanmar’s Mergui Archipelago, worth just over £3k.

Having opened its doors in December 2018, the new exotic private resort, owned by the Yangon-based Memories Group, is a magical destination in the Mergui Archipelago which can accommodate all your desires and more. With a beautifully exclusive setting in the far south coast of Myanmar, this getaway will introduce you to a whole new world.

Experiencing the wonders of an untouched destination, you’ll be able to explore the majesty of Mergui as the resort transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, allowing you to be free to reconnect with yourself.

Rivalling the Maldives, this resort, which is located only eighty kilometres from the shoreline of Kawthaung, on the northernmost point of Pila Island, is set on an idyllic beach surrounded by a forest, offering guests spectacular views out to the Andaman Sea. Here you will experience the meaning of tranquillity as you disconnect in order to reconnect. Replace the deafening noise of the city with the therapeutic sounds of the sea and the humming songs of the natural wildlife.

Visiting this exquisite location in the eastern Indian Ocean is a magical experience, as the legend of Pila island tells the mythological tale of a flood which broke the great islands into eight-hundred, mostly uninhabited, limestone and granite islands; Pila becoming one of its most enchanting treasures.

The newly constructed exclusive resort of Awei Pila features 24 air-conditioned tented villas; all perfectly situated on the idyllic white-sand beaches.
