1. Kamalaya Wellness Sanctuary, Koh Samui
One of our best selling destination spa holidays and our close friends. This spiritual retreat on the tropical island of Koh Samui is favoured by Buddist monks with the sanctuary surrounding an amazing Buddist cave. Holistic wellness is the guiding principle here and you really feel like you are taken care of as soon as you arrive at this beachfront haven. Kamalaya does more than give back to what life takes away, it helps you to lead a healthy lifestyle and reconnects you to a healthier version of you.
2. Aava Resort & Spa, Nakhon Si Thammarat
We love this little retreat and especially the location. It’s on one of Thailand’s most beautiful and unspoilt beaches which is really rare in Thailand. You can expect swaying coconut palms and lush green landscape wherever you look. The philosophy here is to help you align your body and mind through meditation and yoga in the natural surroundings. It’s a place to go to really disconnect from everything.
3. Chiva-Som Health Resort, Nua Hin
Tucked away along the popular Hua Hin coastline a few hours drive from Bangkok lies this exclusive and newly renovated wellness retreat. Chiva-Som is a journey of mind and body. It’s not just any wellness holiday, it is a lifestyle transformation. They believe that there are many paths to wellness and health and they work with you individually to help you find your path. We especially love that no electronics are allowed in the communal areas here, allowing you to switch off from emails, social media and life!
4. Como Point Yamu, Phuket
Sitting at the tip of Cape Yamu, you will find the calming spirit of this COMO Shambala Retreat. Throughout the retreat, there is a sense of quietude. The holistic treatments and therapies target both physical and mental wellbeing using traditional Thai massage, with an extensive range of other Asian inspired treatments. Spend your day exploring the beautiful coastline and keep your body moving with the group yoga and Pilates classes.
5. Absolute Sanctuary, Koh Samui
Just 5 minutes drive away from the popular Chaweng & Cheong Mon beaches lies this fantastic wellness retreat with a firm focus on fitness, yoga, Pilates and healthy eating. They take a holistic approach to wellness that centres around your personal needs. Whether you chose detox, de-stress, weight management or simply chose to relax, there are so many programmes you are spoilt for choice.
6. Mangosteen Ayurveda & Wellness Resort, Phuket
This small and friendly resort in the heart of Phuket is different to all others in the area as it offers traditional Ayurveda programmes. Overseen by an Ayurvedic doctor, you can experience this authentic Indian health practice in a tropical paradise. The resort centres around a swimming pool and everyone gets their own villa with private Jacuzzi which is really cool. We love how great it is for solo travellers and that the owners are really involved and get to know guests.
7. Phuket Cleanse, Phuket
If you want to join an enthusiastic fitness retreat look no further. Phuket Cleanse is like a big friendly villa where you’ll soon be filling your days with activities from beach workouts to Ariel yoga. Everyone here dines from a big communal table in an open kitchen style and healthy nutritional raw and vegan food. Phuket Cleanse is a transformative retreat designed to help support you during life transitions, so you’ll return home with a new burst of life.
8. Amatara Wellness Resort, Phuket
This luxury resort is idyllically located in it’s own private part of Phuket overlooking the Andaman Sea.
