Many of today’s retirees are looking forward to setting off in brand new directions. They no longer want to put up with continuing life much as before they retired. Instead they are embracing new ways of life, even ones that might take them very far from anything that they have been used to up until now. Many retirees decide to emigrate and go and live in countries where they may never have set foot before. The idea may sound giddy and impulsive, but can be a sound, logical choice – and one that surprising has few risks and drawbacks.

Thailand is just one of the countries that today’s retirees are drawn to. And that’s because it is increasingly catering towards an older-age market. For many years it has been attracting travelers and holidaymakers who are in their sixties and older; now it is going still further and providing a base for those who wish to retire. For those who are looking for a retirement home Thailand, there is now a great deal of choice.

First of all, there is a variety of settings when it comes to a retirement home Thailand. You can opt for the urban life of Bangkok or Chiang Mai, and all the culture that goes with these cities, or head for the famed holiday destinations of Phuket, Samui or Hua Hin.

No matter what you choose you can have high expectations of a retirement home Thailand that will definitely be met. And very probably will be exceeded.

Firstly, accommodation is likely to be better than in the west for the same price range and will probably, as at Phuket Retirement Village, be in a villa setting. There will be spaciousness, large sliding windows that let in all the light and a sense of freedom and wellbeing. Accommodation will be specially designed to be safe, secure and practical as well as a joy to spend time in.

Everything will be done to make sure that each resident feels secure. There will be a 24/7 service that will mean that if you feel unwell or have any problem at all, there will be a fast response. Each retirement home Thailand will have strong links with a local hospital of international standard, as well as with clinics, specialists, dentists and nursing staff. Naturally, many residents will have individual needs and these will be completely catered for.

And the same goes for dietary needs, too. A retirement home Thailand will have an eclectic approach to food, and residents will be able to keep to all of their dietary requirements with ease. In all cases, there will be a restaurant or clubhouse that will serve delicious food, both Thai and international.

It will be a priority for any retirement home Thailand to promote plenty of activity; it will be easy and fun to do exercise; there will invariably be a communal swimming pool and a rota of fitness instructors, sports trainers and yoga teachers. There will be group and individual classes for all who would like them. And thanks to Thailand’s excellent climate it will be easy to simply go for a walk, explore the surroundings or partake in a round of golf at the nearest course.

Any good a retirement home Thailand will feature plenty in the way of social activities and it will be easy to get to know other residents.

At the same time, privacy is of equal importance and thanks to having excellent accommodation, residents will enjoy spending time in their property. Incidentally villa accommodation will always have plenty of outdoor space, making it a pleasure to be outside.

Here at Phuket Retirement Village we offer a retirement home Thailand that is superb in every way. It is located in the heartlands of the island and is set in beautiful, undisturbed scenery.

The villas themselves are all spacious and have every modern convenience. Each can be customized according to the individual’s needs. All safety and security aspects have been well thought out to provide a seamless experience.

Even though Phuket Retirement Village is located in a secluded setting, it is close to everything. Phuket boasts many beautiful beaches and none are far away. We are also close to all the amenities of the island, such as shops, malls, restaurants and cinemas.

When it comes to living abroad, Thailand requires a minimum of paperwork and it is easy to obtain a visa and so on. This makes emigration very simple. Everything can be easily done and you will soon feel used to living in Thailand as an expatriate.

As you can imagine, moving to Thailand and enjoying a life in the tropics as a retiree is something that an increasing number of people will want to do since the process is so simple. Once here, their lives are far richer than they might have expected, thanks to Thailand being such a wonderful destination.
