The Spa Resort
- Casais
The Spa Resort is one of the popular retreats in Samui known for its fasting and cleansing programmes. It has properties spread over 2 locations in Lamai – 1 beachside and 1 in the hills. It kickstarted the whole trend for alternative health spas with its opening way back in 1992. Fasting packages range from 1 day to 7 days and are augmented by reflexology, meditation and yoga classes.
For the passing visitor, there are also massages, including Thaiatsu, aroma oil and healing clay, facials and other treatments on offer. Their mostly vegetarian restaurant (same menu at both sites) was voted among the best restaurants in the world and serves a huge array of salads and healthy shakes unavailable elsewhere on the island. Accommodation is available at both locations, although the hillside site is much newer and its bungalows are higher quality than those on the beach.
