Four Seasons reimagines winter travel across Asia Pacific

As winter settles across much of the world and travellers look for journeys that feel lighter, warmer, and more intentional, Four Seasons invites travellers to look east, where the season unfolds differently: through warmth, space, and meaningful discovery across Asia Pacific. From secluded islands and cultural sanctuaries to vibrant global cities, winter with Four Seasons is shaped by how guests want to travel today — with intention, flexibility, and a deeper sense of connection to place.

Increasingly, winter journeys are less about ticking destinations off a list and more about choosing environments that restore balance — whether that means time in nature, space for family and friends to gather, or immersive experiences rooted in culture. Across Asia Pacific, Four Seasons properties offer this diversity, supported by spacious villas, residence-style accommodations, and thoughtfully curated experiences designed for longer, more personal stays.

“Winter travel today is about contrast and choice,” says Rami Sayess, President, Hotel Operations – Asia Pacific, Four Seasons. “Guests are seeking warmth without compromise, cultural depth alongside comfort, and the freedom to travel at their own pace. Across Asia Pacific, our teams create environments that allow travellers to slow down, reconnect, and have journeys that feel genuinely meaningful.”

Island and Seaside Escapes

Across Asia Pacific, winter on the water takes many forms — from remote islands and reef-fringed lagoons to coastal sanctuaries where days unfold at a slower, more intuitive pace.

In the Indian Ocean, Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru unfolds within a UNESCO Biosphere wilderness, where untamed nature, conservation leadership, and deeply immersive wellness journeys shape the experience. Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa, meanwhile, brings a surf-chic spirit, known for its front-row access to world-class surf and dive sites and service that feels genuinely warm and personal. Spacious beach and overwater accommodations across both resorts provide privacy and flexibility, reflecting a growing preference for winter stays that feel immersive, meaningful, and unhurried. Guests can join the Meet the Dolphins excursion with marine biologists, learn the basics of freediving, or simply drift across calm lagoons by paddleboard.

Along Vietnam’s central coast, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An presents a refined beachfront escape where cultural rhythm meets contemporary comfort. Private pool villas and open-air living spaces create a natural setting for multi-generational travel and extended stays, complemented by Vietnamese culinary traditions and easy access to the UNESCO-listed Ancient Town of Hoi An.

Elsewhere in Southeast Asia, Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui and Four Seasons Resort Langkawi invite guests into lush island landscapes where hillside and beachfront villas frame ocean views. Days are shaped by nature, local exploration, and shared experiences — a response to the growing desire for winter travel that blends relaxation with gentle activity. Quiet adventures range from Langkawi’s mangrove wildlife encounters on the Mangroves and Eagles Safari to boating and snorkelling through hidden bays in the Gulf of Thailand.

In Bali, winter escapes take on a slower, more intuitive rhythm. Guests can discover the island through the Insider Itinerary: Bali — Unplugged & Unscripted, a coast-to-jungle journey linking Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay and Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan. Designed to move at the pace of the island, the itinerary invites travellers to unplug from routine and experience Bali in a more personal way — from temple rituals and meaningful wellness practices to moments of quiet connection amid rice fields, riverside jungle, and village life.

Cultural Depth and Transformative Journeys

For travellers seeking reflection and renewal, winter becomes a time to engage more deeply — with landscape, culture, and self.

In northern Thailand, Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle and Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai offer immersive stays shaped by nature and tradition. From jungle-lined rivers to emerald rice fields, these sanctuaries combine wellness, cuisine, and cultural encounters that encourage a slower rhythm — mirroring a broader shift toward purposeful, restorative travel.

Across the region, curated cultural experiences offer rare access and insight. In Kyoto, guests can uncover centuries-old artistry through the Golden Kyoto Journey, while in Suzhou, the Hidden Gems of Suzhou experience reveals quiet canals, gardens, and neighbourhood traditions beyond the usual sightseeing path. In Bali, Journey of the Soul guides travellers through rituals and spiritual practices that connect deeply with the island’s heritage.

Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto provides a rare sense of stillness within the city’s historic temple district. Garden-facing suites, seasonal cuisine, and refined design create a calm base for cultural exploration, appealing to travellers who value depth and authenticity over pace.

Further afield, Four Seasons Explorer Palau redefines the winter escape entirely. Aboard the intimate floating Resort, guests explore one of the Pacific’s last frontiers through marine discovery, island excursions, and time spent immersed in nature — reflecting growing interest in experiential journeys that feel singular and deeply personal.

Urban Retreats with Space to Unwind

Winter in Asia’s great cities brings cooler air, clearer skies, and a welcome sense of breathing space.

From the sky-high calm of Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Otemachi to the contemporary elegance of Four Seasons Hotel Osaka, urban stays are shaped by design, dining, and expansive suites that offer a retreat above the city’s pace — responding to travellers’ desire for cities that feel restorative as well as dynamic.

In China, Four Seasons Hotel Beijing and Four Seasons Hotel Shenzhen provide refined urban sanctuaries where guests can engage with each city’s cultural and creative energy while returning to quiet comfort. Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at West Lake and Four Seasons Hotel Suzhou blend city access with classical beauty, framed by gardens, water, and traditional architecture.

Southeast Asia’s capitals also shine during the winter months. Four Seasons Hotel Singapore and Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur place guests at the heart of vibrant destinations, with generous accommodations and thoughtful amenities that support longer stays, flexible schedules, and a more lived-in approach to city travel.

Wellness and Renewal

Winter also becomes a season for renewal. At Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai, guests are invited to explore Thailand’s Live a Life in Balance philosophy through movement, mindfulness, and farm-to-table nourishment. In Singapore, science-led longevity programs such as CHI Longevity Vital Start help guests reset with measurable insight and gentle structure.

Across the region, wellness becomes a quiet thread woven through each day — from riverside yoga and meditation in Bali, to breathwork rituals in Langkawi, or Muay Thai training overlooking the Gulf of Thailand — encouraging travellers to return home feeling lighter, calmer, and more deeply restored...Read more here
