Kamalaya Wellness Sanctuary

Out of Office: 20 Fashion Designers on Their Favorite Hotels and Resorts Around the World | Vogue

"Tucked away on a stretch of secluded white sand beach on the southern coast of Koh Samui, Kamalaya is so much more than a spa hotel; their wellness programs are utterly comprehensive and, dare I say it, life-changing. You choose from a wide range of treatment programs that last a minimum of five days, most with an ayurvedic influence, but you can focus on anything from mental health and meditation to specific health issues, gut cleanses, and general fitness and diet. The practitioners are some of the best I have experienced anywhere in the world and really make a difference. The food is health focused but this does not come at the expense of flavour, everything is utterly delicious. The setting is calming and simplistic, nothing is over the top or in your face, there is no ego at Kamalaya, it is the ultimate in quiet, confident luxury. A place I will return to again and again for complete rest and rejuvenation." - Lilah Ramzi
