In a region known for its luxe wellness offerings, traditional massages and picture-perfect settings, it’s surprisingly easy to feel spa fatigue with one experience merely blending into the next. For a destination spa to rise above the rest, it has to offer something extraordinary with experiences that don’t just heal the body, but address the mind, heart and soul while awakening the senses.
Overlooking a rock-fringed bay and the Gulf of Thailand, the lauded Six Senses Samui Spa stands apart from the crowd with its range of holistic therapies, signature rituals and unique activities — where else can you begin your spa journey with a four hands stone massage then end it with palmistry or an acro yoga session?
Slipping into the tranquil sanctuary, one immediately feels stress and tension dissolve while unwinding in the spa’s soothing environment and taking part in a personalised consultation to ensure tailored treatments. Ready to lead guests on a personalised wellness journey, the therapists at Six Senses are masters of their craft, whether that is traditional Thai Healing Massage, Zen Na Tai, Reiki or Chakra balancing. While many wellness practitioners are permanent members of the Six Senses team, the spa also features exclusive treatments from global guest healers renowned for their skills, knowledge and followings.
One thing is for sure, no matter which spa journey you embark on, the experience is sure to leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
Massage therapies starting from 2,900 THB for a 60-minute treatment.
