The KEE Resort & Spa Patong Beach

If you're planning to visit Phuket before summer ends, then go to The Kee Resort & Spa Patong Beach in Phuket, Thailand. It will be a crowded summer destination but to tell you frankly, this resort & spa is something else. I celebrated my 25th birthday here and booked it online via Agoda.com before heading to Thailand.

The KEE Resort & Spa is a Thai-owned avant garde tropical retreat with a vast lagoon-like swimming pool & contemporary Sino- Portugese theme in the heart of Thailand's most popular tourist destination. What I really love about this place will be their modern room style with various colour schemes to choose from. You will definitely love the interior design & the modern comforts of this resort. 

Imagine each room equipped with a central entertainment console for music & movies on demand, plus international satellite television. The entertainment interface also allows guests to order in-room dining and real-time bill checking. All guest rooms at The KEE Resort & Spa Patong have free wifi internet access & KEE card to ensure privacy & Security. Also don't forger to try the KEE Sky Lounge & KEE Pool Bar & try the famous Thai Massage at KEE Spa. Staying for a night here was indeed spectacular. I really had a great time & this is a perfect getaway. Can't wait to be back for sure.

Our stay in Dubai was exceptionally memorable not only for the experiences and memories we had but definitely because of the accommodation while we were in the sandbox. We're lucky enough to get great discount in this hotel managed by Sheraton company where my friend's sister was working. We stayed in this hotel for 5 days and we had the best stay in this tourist haven you should definitely book when you get the chance to visit Dubai.

ABU DHABI MALL & WORLD TRADE CENTER MALL

Travel will never be complete without shopping. UAE is known for their extravagant shopping malls that you shouldn't miss. We were able to visit Abu Dhabi Mall & World Trade Centre Mall for a day. What else would be better than window shopping, food tripping & having coffee after a whole day of shopping therapy.

We were also able to visit the SOUK Market which was the traditional market place of the Arabian culture. We were again amazed with all the must buy items from souvenirs, foodies & traditional handicrafts. So here's some of the awesome photos taken that I wanna share with everyone.

SHEIKH ZAYED GRAND MOSQUE ABU DHABI

Shaek Zayed Grand Mosque is located in Abu Dhabi, the capital city of United Arab Emirates. It was initiated by the late president of UAE Shaek Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and is considered to be the key for worship in the country.

As the country's grand mosque, it is the key place to worship for Friday gathering & Eid prayers. The mosque was constructed from 1996 to 2007. It is the largest mosque in the United Arab Emirates & the eighth largest mosque in the world. The mosque size is equivalent to the size five football fields approximately. During Eid it can be visited more than 40,000 people.

It was named after the founding father Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nhayan who is the first president of the UAE. Zayed had a keen interest in the history of the Arabian Peninsula. In the Arabian Desert, Zayed learned courage & chivalry. The experience that Sheikh Zayed had growing up in a harsh environment had  a tremendous impact on shaping his exceptional personality. He was known for his patience, insightfulness & optimism but the central trait of his personality was wisdom.

Sheik Zayed Grand Mosque was a dream in the heart of Late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan. The  Mosque is an expression of a visionary leader who believed that nothing is impossible & conceived that  the most gracious achievements start from the heart.
