Where can you find your zen in Asia and around the region? Singapore Tatler editors jetted to stunning resorts that boasted more than just breathtaking panoramas—they discovered an array of treatments and therapies that relaxed their minds, bodies and souls, and relieved the stresses of the daily grind.
AMANOI NINH THUAN, VIETNAM
HIGHLIGHT
Customised wellness retreats are best enjoyed at the two purpose-built spa houses, Thuy Lien and An Son. The former, where I stayed, comes with a hammam, steam room, Jacuzzi, cold plunge pool, ice fountain, relaxation deck and a 15m pool overlooking a serene lotus pond. An Son comes with a banya thermal facility. Wellness immersions can be booked regardless of the room type.
WELLNESS PHILOSOPHY Health and well-being has always been an integral part of Aman, whose distinctive design ethos encourages guests to embrace simplicity. Its recently launched wellness immersions—currently available in only four properties at the time of print—displays commitment to helping Aman junkies find their chi.
It’s easy to find the headspace to relax once you arrive at Amanoi, a tranquil escape set on 43ha of land within Vietnam’s Nui Chua National Park. Sculptural granite boulders stand tall against verdant rolling hills, with pavilions subtly dotting the pristine landscape. Since opening in 2013, Amanoi’s spa has reaped multiple awards, and the recent addition of two dedicated spa houses and a wellness programme centred on East Asian medicine therapy only strengthen the offering.
The immersions are led by in-house manager Joshua Hehr, an expert of East Asian medicine and a licensed acupuncturist. Whether one chooses the detoxification, weight management or stress control track, each immersion is goal-oriented, requires a minimum of three full days, and follows a tailored schedule. I went for the Mindfulness, Relaxation and Stress Control retreat, which consists of therapies, treatments and practices that help calm the nervous system and reconnect with oneself.
