Lotus Breathes Life into New Anantara Spa Phuket - Focus on Travel News


Introducing Anantara Spa Phuket, where soothing treatments and modern amenities combine with ancient cultures and healing wisdom to create a luxuriously unique spa experience.

Anantara Spa Phuket is defined by the beauty and symbolism of the lotus flower. Considered in cultures around the world as the embodiment of purity, the lotus is also one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols of Buddhism – which is widely practised in Thailand – and represents enlightenment, rebirth and self-regeneration.

With its roots in the earth, its growth sustained by water, its leaves nourished by air, and its blooms made radiant by the fire of the sun, the lotus is the perfection of the fourfold order of the natural world. The emergence of a new flower from its earth-bound origins is an act of transcendence in which a higher world is reached beyond the physical self. It is with this symbolism in mind that Anantara Spa Phuket has combined age-old relaxation and restoration techniques with aromatic oils that allow guest to rediscover the inner and outer beauty that so often becomes clouded by life’s daily struggles.

Phuket Spa Resorts, Mangosteen Boutique Resort and Spa - Best Syndication


Mangosteen is a special place. Perched atop a hill just south of Chalong,
it commands a rare view of both sides of the island and the bays of both
Nai Harn and Chalong. Enjoy a pampering treat at the Spa and leave
yourself plenty of time to use the hotel facilities and stay for dinner.

Mangosteen is a special place. Perched atop a hill just south of Chalong, it commands a rare view of both sides of the island and the bays of both Nai Harn and Chalong.

Mangosteen is a privately owned and operated luxury boutique resort that offers the seclusion and personal attention hard to find in big international operations – yet maintains the high standards its discerning clientele have come to expect.

The Solitude Spa is a short stroll over a timber walkway from the airy reception. Smiles follow you every step of the way and the Solitude welcome is warm and exceptionally friendly. A short chat with spa manager Nittaya revealed that Mangosteen’s owners are smart recruiters. Nittaya spent four years with the renowned Banyan Tree Spas and brings her wealth of experience to Solitude.

After an introduction to the treatment choices, my therapist Warunee greeted me with a soft smile and a beautiful ‘wai’ before escorting me to my private suite. Steam room, Jacuzzi room a few metres above the hotel pool and massage room with a panoramic view of the islands of Chalong Bay all make the most of design and location. Large tinted windows, but no outside areas, mean you remain comfortably cool while enjoying your surroundings.
