Sharmiela Mandre’s beach getaway with her gang of girls

Actress-producer Sharmiela Mandre has always been a beach babe. No surprise then that it was a beach destination that she chose as a getaway with her

girls

for her recent birthday. “I haven’t been doing anything special on my

birthday

the last few years, so this year I thought I should travel. Since I’d never been to Koh Samui, it felt like the perfect weekend getaway with the girls,” shares Sharmiela. She adds, “It was lovely because the weather was perfect and it wasn’t too crowded which made it even better. And all the beaches in Koh Samui are so clean and scenic. Even pictures can’t do justice to how beautiful the sky and the crystal clear sea looked with pink hues across the shoreline We would just sit by the beach and chill, talk and unwind the whole time while watching the sunset,” says the actor. The gang tried some snorkelling and flyboarding — which was also a lot of fun, she says. Definitely a memorable trip, this one.
