Thai Spa at Samed Island

Introduction


The Thai spa experience brings together a range of indigenous resources, folk wisdom and traditions that have been handed down through the centuries. It captures the very essence of traditional Thai living. Spa operators delve into this ancient treasure trove to create exceptional spa products so that alluring dimensions of this tropical paradise enrich the spa experience. Gracious hospitality and service is complemented by the friendly and caring nature and gentle ways of the Thai people, adding a uniquely Thai touch to world-class service and hospitality. Kindness, compassion and the act of comforting and caring for others, as advocated by the Theravada Buddhist tradition, is very much part of everyday life. The gesture is instinctive and genuine.


Many of the healing techniques and well-being therapies featured on the contemporary spa menu have been adopted and adapted from such practices. These include natural healing a tradition based on the healing power of indigenous herbs and plants, holistic remedies specially formulated to restore balance and rejuvenate mind, body and spirit and a variety of other healing techniques, including meditative practices, which reflect deep-rooted Buddhist influences. For example, the act of performing traditional Thai Massage is considered to be an act of compassion in which the healer (or therapist) practices the physical application of metta (loving kindness) and bestows a healing touch in the spirit of giving. The Thai spa experience thus enables guests to experience various aspects of Thai-ness.

Thailand excels in the quality and diversity of its spa offerings. Thai spas really do have it all variety and value framed in a perfect blend of Western leisure concepts and traditional Asian wellbeing therapies. Value for money is an added plus. A harmonious blend of cultural heritage and destination diversity makes Thailand an infinitely attractive spa destination.


Thailand spa resorts are giving their visitors not only the healing experience but also the overall philosophy of tranquility, harmony, inner peace complementing the mind, body and soul.

Visiting a spa was once considered a rare luxury that only the rich could afford, but now thanks to increased awareness, as well as greater competition, spas have become an extremely affordable indulgence.

Koh Samet is an idyllic island about 200km south-east of Bangkok and around 6 km off the coast of Rayong province. Its beautiful beaches especially in the north-east of the island have been described as having the "whitest squeakiest sand in the kingdom. Incorporated as part of the Khao Laem Ya National Park in 1981, it has great natural beauty, secluded beaches and a lush interior - home to exotic wildlife such as monkeys, hornbills, gibbons and spectacular butterflies... ..
In the 1970's Ko Samet was 'discovered' by Thai teenagers and young couples looking a weekend retreat from the hectic pace of Bangkok. Over the last 10 years its popularity has increased with overseas visitors joining the locals in search of paradise. From its early days as a peaceful and inspirational place for artists who retreated there to capture the island's natural beauty on canvas, Ko Samet now increasingly attracts Bangkokian residents and tourists. Electricity is now available 24 hours a day, and resorts offer TV and air-conditioning. Camping is still popular on the more secluded beaches, but bring your own tents!
