- Good morning guys.
It is the 1st of November 2019.
We're standing at the front of Cocoville Resort
here in Phucket, Thailand.
In this video, I just wanna give you a bit of a walking tour
of the place that we've been staying at
now for about a week.
And we'll take you from the front entrance of Cocoville,
right here, if you're looking at staying here
on your fitness vacation to Fitness Street So Thai.
We'll take you through a bit of a walkthrough tour
of the restaurant.
We'll show you quickly the menu,
which is absolutely stunning.
Hey Robyn Whale.
- Yes, Brad Newton?
(laughing)
- We've been staying together for like almost a week
and then we'll take you through to our room,
show you very quickly,
I think it's a standard room that we're staying in,
just to give you an idea
of what the standard room looks like.
If there's no one at the pool,
we'll show you the pool.
It's absolutely stunning.
So first and foremost though,
I wanna talk about,
if you're looking at staying in Cocoville,
I stayed back here back in 2017,
didn't shoot any videos.
Now we're back in 2019.
Still has impeccable service.
Really friendly staff.
And it's really centrally located
to all the training gyms in the area.
I'll show you very quickly.
(mumbling)
So if you're staying here,
I'll show you just how close
Dragon Muay Thai is
if you're looking to doing some training at Dragon Muay Thai
or even Unit 27,
it's literally right there.
And,
hello how are you? - [Man] I'm good.
- And just around the corner is Unit 27.
Which is a very popular here,
very famous here for strength conditioning classes
and things along those lines.
So a lot of Unit guys stay here as well.
So yeah, perfectly located.
This guys is gonna run us over.
(laughs)
He wants to kill us, this guy.
Anyway, so we're gonna walk inside
through the restaurant. - Just say like it's
it's also a resort way,
in case you're going to do all this hard core training.
And when you walk in here,
it feels like retreat.
It's surrounded by trees. - [Brad] It's paradise.
- [Robyn] You instantly calm down
and become really relaxed
as soon as you walk in the space.
- It's paradise.
- It's such a nice place to stay
if you've been training hard all day
and you wanna chill.
As soon as you walk through the doors,
you will feel it.
- [Brad] Okay Robs lead the way.
Take us to the restaurant.
Take us to the raw fitness menu.
- Okay.
- [Brad] I wanna see the raw fitness menu.
- Follow me.
- [Brad] Let's go.
(slow rhythmic music)
- [Brad] Through here.
So right now we're in the restaurant area now.
Sorry for the background noise,
we'll be very quick through here.
But we love to come here for coffees.
Even when we're not staying in this resort.
We've been in Fitness Street
for three weeks now.
We usually come here for our morning coffee.
The Americanas are the best.
Little cookie on side is really amazing.
- And don't forget to mention the pancakes.
- Yeah, I knew you were gonna say that.
- With peanut butter.
- [Brad] Yeah, I knew you were gonna say that.
- [Robyn] That's a biggie.
- [Brad] You have to get the oatmeal pancakes
made with brown rice, I think,
and with peanut butter.
It's just amazing.
- It's all brown rice pancakes.
- And the omelettes.
Check out this menu.
It's called the raw fitness menu.
This is what you'll wake up to every morning in Cocoville.
It's pretty amazing,
check this out.
That's it.
That's the raw fitness menu right there.
- [Robyn] We stay in this section quite a lot.
Those oatmeal pancakes
- [Brad] They are the best.
- [Robyn] are awesome.
- [Brad] And literally for a 120 bahts,
you just can't go wrong with that.
It's just over five Australian dollars.
- [Robyn] Brad had
- [Brad] This one this morning.
- [Robyn] Yeah. - [Brad] Yeah.
That one right there.
- [Robyn] That looks really good.
- [Brad] Egg whites.
- [Robyn] And I had some oatmeal.
- [Brad] So you'll also see--
- [Robyn] I've also eaten the chicken breast steak
with vegetables.
That was really good the other day, too.
- [Brad] You'll also notice that they mark everything
with a macro,
so how much protein, carb, and fat everything contains.
So if you're here like,
Sorry, we'll be very quick.
If you're here training
and you're getting ready for a body building competition
you can track you macros by just looking at the menu.
Entering your macros into your fitness tracker.
- [Brad] And you got a serious amount of shakes.
- Aw, yeah guys.
- And protein shakes and all of that.
- Yeah, it's a double sided menu.
So anyway, there's people here
but I'll show you quickly.
This is the restaurant area, right here.
This is the front reception right here.
- And just a reminder,
do bring some mosquito repellent.
You can't actually buy it from the supermarkets here.
I think with all the trees and the water,
it attracts a lot of mosquito.
Brad's been fine. - Yes.
- I have not. - Yes.
- Every time I come to this area,
I've had to apply the mosquito repellent.
- So right we'll walk through to our room.
And we'll go this way.
Walk you to our room
where we'll show you just a little bit of our room
and what a standard room looks like.
- [Robyn] Okay guys, look at this.
- [Brad] Okay, follow this one.
- This is what I'm talking about.
You walk there
and you see this beautiful greenery
that's surrounds the entire premises.
Like, you're in a jungle. - [Brad] Paradise.
- You're in jungle in the middle of your accommodation.
There're two swimming pools.
Two.
Where do we wanna go?
Do you wanna go to the room first
or should I show the people the swimming pool?
- [Brad] I think there's people in the swimming pool,
- Okay.
- [Brad] Maybe we go to the room first.
- Okay cool, come with me.
- [Brad] And if there's no one in the--
- This is the little pathway.
- [Brad] Yeah, this is a little pathway.
- Look at this, look.
- [Brad] It's like a little jungle.
- It's amazing.
(laughs)
I would never get bored of this.
- [Brad] So just a reminder,
the mosquitoes don't bite me
because they don't like me.
(laughs)
- Look, and you have you're own friends.
- [Brad] Ah you have your own cats.
- [Robyn] You can hang out as well.
- [Brad] And these cats,
they are super friendly.
But there is a sign that says,
don't let them into your room.
Otherwise you get fined,
like 2,000 bahts or something if you get caught.
But the cats are super friendly here.
Very domesticated.
- [Robyn] It's really beautiful through here.
- Yes, this is our little pathway.
- [Robyn] And this is our
- Robs will lead the way.
- This is our room overlooking the pool
which is over there.
- [Brad] Absolutely stunning.
We might even clip in some other shots of the pool.
But that's pretty much we wake up to
from our front stairs right here
every morning for the last week or so.
Really beautiful pool.
And by the way, just a quick mention.
That if you're training on Fitness Street
to do So Thai,
whether Unit 27 dragged by doing Muay Thai,
then you need to,
in my opinion,
you need to find a place that has a swimming pool.
It's a great little reset.
It gets so hot here
and it's humid like hell.
It's so crazy.
You sweat even when you're not training.
And the swimming pool is a great little reset for your body
between training session.
I can't recommend it enough.
Even if you pay an extra 10, 15 dollars a week.
- You need a pool guys.
- You need a pool.
- You really do. - Right?
There's two swimming pools at this resort.
If you don't like that one,
you can ahead to the other one on the other side,
same resort, so yeah.
Anyway, so real quick,
we're not gonna drag this out too long,
we're up to eight minutes already,
we're gonna show you very quickly our room.
(peaceful rhythmic music)
- [Brad] All right guys,
so that's the second pool there.
There's like a little fountain there.
Little deck chairs just there.
And these little coconut shaped chairs just through there.
Nice little area you can just relax,
read a book.
Read books, chill out,
between your training sessions.
Or if you wanna have a training day off,
it's a perfect place to swim in the pool,
or read a book.
Relax the body, relax the mind.
And that's it.
Yeah so guys I hope you enjoyed that little walking tour.
An amazing little resort.
We've had our laundry done here.
Our rooms are made every day
when we had our key into reception.
To keep that in mind,
when you hand your key in to reception
they'll make your room for you.
The facilities are clean.
The staff are very, very friendly and super helpful.
The restaurant will blow your mind.
The food, the raw fitness menu.
You can't go wrong.
If you decide to eat there or stay here, let us know.
And I think all the rooms are air conditioned.
And the air conditioning in the rooms is top notch.
It's so hot outside.
It's such a relief
to come into a room that's fully air conditioned.
Otherwise, that's it guys.
We're checking out on Sunday.
If you have any questions about this place
or planning to stay
in or around Fitness Street
or So Thai Phuket, Thailand for a fitness vacation,
whether to be Unit 27, Dragon,
or any other gym in the area,
let us know.
Drop us a message.
Online Pilates instructor
She also takes DMs as well.
- If any of you guys you can DM me.
- Or the ladies have any questions
if you wanna speak to her and not me,
I won't be offended.
(chuckling)
But amazing little paradise.
And once again,
check out the other videos
in the Fitness Street series.
If you have any interest in training with Unit 27,
we've shot videos there.
We shot videos pretty much every gym,
