WHY IT RATES: The new wellness program at Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui offers guests an opportunity to dedicate quality time to wellbeing through a variety of activities including luxurious pampering and active play.-Mia Taylor, TravelPulse Senior Writer.
"When was the last time you spent a whole day preparing for deep sleep? Or paused your dizzying routine for that much-needed pampering?" quizzes Stephanie Arveux, Director of Spa, The Secret Garden Spa.
Experience a different facet of wellbeing as Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui proposes a "Reason to…" dedicate quality time to wellbeing. From deep nourishment and restful sleep to luxurious pampering and active play, guests can indulge in a combination of Resort experiences, spa therapies and dining through four unique programs designed to suit individual wellness styles.
"The program has been inspired by the core foundation wheel of a healthy body and mind - a good night's sleep, an active day, nourishment and of course, pampering. Each of these day-long experiences have their own 'personality'; guests can choose the experience that fulfills the 'Reason to…' indulge in their wellbeing," explains Arveux.
Reason to Nourish - This sequence of experiences is aimed at replenishing lost reserves of health and energy. Handpicked spa treatments await guests: a rejuvenating body scrub, a healing wrap and a scalp massage with warm coconut oil, made from freshly plucked Samui coconuts. A private session is yoga and the art of juicing using fresh tropical ingredients is interspersed with six power-packed mini-meals through the day.
Reason to Sleep - The day of bliss begins with a session of flow yoga, uniting breath and movement. A Lava Shell Massage ensues, where perfectly warmed Pacific clam shells provide muscular relief. The preparation for a restful night continues with an hour of meditation, followed by a luxurious candlelit bath in the privacy of the villa, and a relaxing shoulder and neck, feet or head massage. Breakfast in bed the next morning completes this experience of soul-deep relaxation.
Reason to Pamper - This good old-fashioned pampering will help guests relax and recharge through a series of luxurious experiences, starting with breakfast in bed. The indulgence continues at The Secret Garden Spa with a 3-hour-long Earth to Sky Ritual. This fragrant and cocooning top-to-toe treat includes a nourishing scrub, a massage combining pressure point and gentle stretching techniques, and steam compress filled with local Thai medicinal herb. Guests can savor herbal infusions and refreshing high tea comprising bite-sized wraps, rolls, and skewers in the breezy open-air terrazzo of the Spa.
Reason to Play - Featuring activities that inspire and refresh, this experience allows guests to rediscover their sense of possibility and adventure. The morning begins with guided exercises at the gym or on the beach, while the afternoon is dedicated to learning Muay Thai, the ancient Thai art of kickboxing. Guests can enjoy a healthy lunch between activities, and cap off the day with a blissful Magnesium massage, known to release muscular tension and enhance sleep.
Commenting on the launch of the "Reason To…" program, Sean Mosher, general manager, Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, says, "The setting, ambiance, and experiences at Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui naturally inspires holistic wellbeing. With the launch of these four new experiences, we hope to create an environment for positive harmony and give guests the much-needed 'reason to' invest in their wellbeing."
