Surrounded by lush tropical forests with a direct access to 900 meters of pristine sandy beach, Pimalai Resort and Spa on Koh Lanta in Thailand is inviting guests to rebalance their bodies and soothe their senses with a choice of top-notch wellness packages.

This is a world-class wellness centre that has won a World Luxury Spa Award and was included in the Condé Nast Johansens Luxury Spa Collection, a global list of luxury hotels specially selected by local experts.

This serene spa, located on a sleepy island district in Krabi province renowned for its stunning natural beauty, is also world famous for its Pimalai Wellness Packages which blend several hours of blissful body treatments with private yoga classes, airport transfers, authentic cuisine, healthy beverages and more. After an extended period of time spent at home — often with raised stress levels — what could be more rewarding?

According to the spa’s general manager Patrice Landrein: “Wellbeing is about more than just fitness and exercise. We take an holistic approach to wellness that energises the body, eases the mind and most importantl­y, stimulates the soul. The last few months have been challengin­g for everyone, but our Pimalai Wellness Packages will give guests many different ways to unwind and uncoil their physical and mental springs”.
