Rejuvenating Wellness Holidays In Asia - Pacific

Experience a dose of tranquillity on the island of Koh Samui in Thailand

Koh Samui, with its picture-perfect stretches of sand, leads just about every traveller to conclude it is an outstanding beach paradise brimming with turquoise-clear waters, white sand beaches and jungle-clad hills. But there’s more than meets the eye here, as this celebrated island keeps reinventing itself as a hotspot for wellness seekers.

Recharge yourself both physically and spiritually at Kamalaya, one of the island’s wellness institutions and where relaxation and serenity reign. Tucked away in the lush rainforest, Kamalaya’s architecture blends perfectly with its unspoilt environs; take a leisurely walk down the hillside and you will quickly find yourself a pristine stretch of white sand. Far away from the madding crowd, professional therapists pamper you with invigorating yoga, tai chi, Ayurvedic medicine, Thai massages and detox programmes. For those looking to deeper explore their inner life, there’s even a monk’s cave for meditation.
