overview
Experience healing and renewal at Kamalaya Koh Samui, Thailand's award-winning wellness sanctuary and holistic spa resort. Inspired by a monk's cave that once served Buddhist monks as a placement for spiritual retreat and meditation, the resort's spirit is illustrated by its name: 'Lotus (kamal) Realm (alaya)', an ancient symbol for the growth and unfolding of the human spirit.
Kamalaya's Asian Bliss Ayurvedic Retreat is a life-enhancing immersion into traditional healing practices. The programme is a synergy of diverse Asian traditions, combining Ayurveda, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Thai therapies in order to promote relaxation and vitality. The goal is to help you cope and find relief from stress while introducing you to energy practices that will sustain and support balance throughout your life.
Kamalaya offers three different Asian Bliss Ayurvedic Retreat choices: a five-night, seven-night, or ten-night programme.
