Our Reviews

  • Ben's First Fitness Retreat, Here’s why he loved it!

    Life-changing and life-improving are the two ways I would describe my Kamalaya Experience. I left feeling fitter and healthier with tools I could take into my day-to-day life

  • Samantha's Review of Kamalaya 2019

    I have been an advocate for Kamalaya since my first visit in 2012 - the location, programs, and property design are all geared towards a total wellness immersion. With this, I am delighted to report that it is still magical — a place where the time goes both fast and slow.

  • Rebecca's Review of Kamalaya in Koh Samui, Thailand

    Having heard so many glowing reviews about Kamalaya, I was very excited to experience it myself and understand what makes it such a special place with such a high rate of repeat guests. From the beautiful location to the nurturing spa treatments and nourishing food, it’s impossible to visit Kamalaya and not feel instantly better in yourself.  

  • Samantha's Review of Kamalaya

    There is a special magic at Kamalaya, an award-winning sanctuary and holistic spa carved into the hillside of the lush Thailand jungle and overlooking the aqua blue sea. It is the perfect setting, a delight for the senses and also the winner of the title of Thailand's best spa. My journey begins at Koh Samui airport where I am greeted with a cool towel and a warm smile, I am glad to arrive...

  • Paul's Review of Kamalaya

    Having spent seven days in Thailand including a two night stopover in Bangkok at the Anantara Riverside Resort & Spa, I was ready to begin my healthy holiday at Kamalaya in Koh Samui. Voted as Destination Spa of the Year in Asia and Favourite Spa in Thailand, I was looking forward to spending one week re-energising myself at this stunning Wellness Sanctuary and Holistic Spa.

    Pack less, experience more and relax completely! This is my advice. Embrace the changes and let this place transform you. It has been a life-changing week for me and I cannot thank Health and Fitness Travel and all members of staff at Kamalaya enough!

  • Kate

    Visited December 2018

    Kamalaya was absolutely first class and inspirational from start to finish. I couldn't have been happier with my choice of holiday. Health and Fitness Travel made the perfect recommendation and booked everything for me. The overall level of care in resort is faultless and everything is geared to making solo guests feel at ease. I cannot wait to return next year. It was a life changing experience for me.

  • Carrie

    Visited November 2018

    The best way to describe Kamalaya is a real private haven, an escape, a sanctuary of peace and calm. The team at the Spa is just amazing and is always ready to move appointments to help guests go with their own flow. Personal training sessions were great because the teachers really listen to what you like to do and tailor all to your level. I traveled by myself and felt that I could socialise with others but I preferred to focus more on myself and spend some precious time in silence. The mental benefits of switching off and being able to focus on just me and my wellbeing was priceless!

    Fantastic, very specialised and detailed resort. Also received superb spiritual guidance. I enjoyed EVERYTHING! It is an incredible investment and worth every penny, as it brings deep benefits to body, mind and soul.

  • Gavin

    Visited September 2018

    Kamalaya is a gem! I had a wonderful time there, but would also like to say a little more about Health and Fitness Travel: you guys are fantastic. At the time of enquiring about Health and Fitness Travel's services and packages, and the booking the holiday, I was under a lot of stress and change. Everyone was incredibly empathetic, understanding and make the entire process completely hassle-free. You went above and beyond and I appreciate your friendly, non-pushy approach. When I had to alter a few things around (dates/timings) due to other commitments clashes, you really took the time to understand what needed and delivered great service. Just fantastic. Please continue what you're doing: a non-aggressive sales approach and patience goes a long, long way. It's not often you deal with such switched on, genuine good professionals.

    An absolutely extraordinary experience! From arrival till departure I was treated like a queen. The hotel staff are exceptional and the spa treatments and program classes are excellent. I truly had the most relaxed experience. I came back rejuvenated and refreshed. Overall a six-star experience. If you ask me if there were any aspects which could be improved, I would categorically say ‘absolutely nothing’. Ah, and the communal table is a social event at night!

    Service in Kamalaya is second to none. There’s nothing that the staff won't do to make your stay more enjoyable. The Fusion Fitness programme, in particular, was well put together with great variety and tailored to my own needs and goals. It was challenging and rewarding. Excellent fitness classes especially the Thai boxing and Yoga. It was my secont time at Kamalaya and I’ll return this year!

  • Daniel

    Visited November 2017

    Simply amazing! Best holiday I’ve ever had (and I have extensively travelled the world over the past 20 years).
    Food: Given the task of preparing a varied menu of healthy and detox dishes, free from salt and almost entirely vegetarian, the head chef really does an excellent job. The range is extensive, and of a high quality, such that even after 14 days of stay the possibility of different dishes every day without boredom was incredible! Breakfast is also great, outstanding choices, with great fresh juices and small ‘shots’ of wheatgrass and other superfoods. The freshly made juices and non-alcoholic cocktails (notable Mojito and Green Bull) were outstanding.
    Staff: Without exception, every single member of staff working there, and it must be 100’s, was delightful, respectful and helpful. Everybody is synchronized to make your stay a real pleasure and all geared up to helping you achieve your goals. Outstanding at all levels. 
    Overall layout: Remarkable property and architecture, which blends the whole experience into the natural topography and tropical environment. Everyone gets a view and sitting on the balcony effectively in the canopy of a rain forest is a wonderfully calming experience.
    Suites and Villas: The rooms are simple, but well thought out, with all necessary amenities. I recommend booking room 33.
    Treatments: The entire team is nothing short of outstanding; every single person was doing their best to make us all relaxed. All very professional – very unique experiences.
    Grounds: Immaculately maintained and great to see so much wildlife and running water.
    Activities: Wonderful range of free activities to involve yourself in between package treatments or therapies. Very useful having a weekly bulletin and an evening reminder of what is on the next day.
    Overall: A unique and nurturing experience that exceeded expectations and achieved many of my (many) goals. An aura of peace, calm, tranquillity and wellness pervades the property. 
    Would I go back? My bags are packed ready!

    The service and food were the highlights of my week at Kamalaya. Members of staff are very professional and caring at the same time. World class service. Facilities were also high quality and everything is conveniently located. My advice if you are looking to go: fully lend yourself into the Kamalaya way, it will be very rewarding at the end! Be adventurous and order from the detox menu. Enjoy the wonders of digital detox. And book with Health and Fitness Travel as they are great at organising it all for you and have the lowest price. Definitely a trip to remember!

    Staying at Kamalaya was the most amazing, positively life-changing experience I have encountered. I highly recommend paying a visit to this mind-blowing retreat, it was truly transformative and I’m now planning an annual visit, at least. Treatments are second to none and the environment, staff, food, communal table and everything else is just perfect, not to mention the weather which is amazing all year round. I have no words to describe how skilled and knowledgeable the wellness team is and nothing was a problem for them – I requested to change my schedule a couple of times and they were extremely helful.

  • Sandra

    Visited June 2017

    Kamalaya is a dream! It totally exceeded my expectations! Almost every day I rescheduled my treatments and they were so accommodating. The food really astounded me in terms of quality and choice, the freshness and variety were abundant! Excellent value when you choose a wellness plan as there is no real need to add any extra costs. I cannot wait to go back and next time will stay at least 10 nights. This is 100% the best place to recharge oneself with goodness! My advice to other travellers is: don’t pack too many clothes, you won’t need them. Just comfortable exercising gear and swimsuits.

  • Karen

    Visited April 2017

    Amazing holiday! I recommend taking a 7 day programme over 10 days’ timeframe, to allow for more flexibility in appointments and other activities, as there is so much to do! Great experience, Health and Fitness Travel is very helpful and recommended Kamalaya based on my requirements. Perfect match!

  • Sam

    Visited April 2017

    Kamalaya truly exceeded my expectations! The service from all staff was exceptional! I booked an entry level room type and it was very comfortable – frankly, I barely spent anytime inside, as the resort has so many places to explore and relax (by the pool, on the beach or my favourite: by the loungers next to the plunge pools by the infra-red saunas. My room had fresh ice delivered every evening with the turn down service and the insect repellent candles were lit in my bathroom too. Sporadic presents were also left on my bed which were a nice touch along with a leaving gift and a birthday present which made my stay even more memorable! The night before departing, I was most impressed with the offer to choose a pack lunch for the journey back home - so practical and thoughtful as they really have thought of everything to make the stay utterly heavenly and easy at the same time.

    My favourite spa treatment was the Pathaganjaly Massage – it was the highlight of my holiday! I also enjoyed the island tour excursion, which was good value and the right duration. The communal dining table is such a good idea! We sat there many times and swapped details with other guests and formed friendships from all over the world. The food was incredible! Fresh and varied! I loved it how I could choose from the detox menu as well. My palate was reset despite having no intentions of losing weight or eating better, you just come away from Kamalya feeling better about food and wanting to continue that Kamalaya glow/feeling vibe. Absolutely loved my trip and can’t wait to return!

    My holiday to Kamalaya was fantastic! Great location and facilities with very friendly staff. The upgrade to the suite was well worth the money (I’m still missing the outdoor shower!). As a single traveller looking for a healthy break it would be very difficult to fault, having the communal table at dinner was a really treat with a fantastic mix of people. I would fully recommend Kamalaya to any solo travels looking for a fitness / wellbeing break, and I’m sure I’ll visit again.

    I enjoyed my stay at Kamalaya very much. It's a beautiful resort, which has a lot to offer. I'm admittedly a picky customer, not quite diva level but certainly, shall we say, discerning! But I have nothing negative to say about Kamalaya! The staff were very courteous and friendly in addition to helpful and professional. The massages and food were outstanding! Great balance between peace and relaxation, and a sense of being part of a social community. I can't wait to go back! I felt reinvigorated and fresh coming home.

    Kamalaya was great, this place really is amazing! I’m now back home smiling and feeling much happier inside. All the treatments were world class, the therapists were so professional and skilled. Thailand is famous for the massages, but Kamalaya was a step further! The perfect place to relax, rejuvenate, calm down after busy times or even serious burnt out. The food is amazing too. The best detox food I have ever tried. They even have detox desserts. My partner was not on detox, but he was encouraged to eat lean protein with every meal. I’m definitely coming back.

    Visited March 2016

    Kamalaya is a wonderful place for solo travellers and couples who want to chill. Great for meditation, yoga, pilates, natural medicine... The atmosphere there is one of calm, there is a spiritual feel about the place that comes from nature and Buddhism and the calmness of the people who work there. The gardens are amazing, the slope allows for running water, waterfalls and pools. At the heart of Kamalaya is it's Wellness Center. There is a genuine interest in you, body and mind. I'm not sure if everyone gets this or it depends on what program you are on, but I got a medical check shortly after I arrived, was assigned to a 'naturopath' and to a 'mentor', which was a bit like having your own Gandhi to talk to. They both made suggestions to change my program to optimise my time there, and I met with both of them a number of times during my 10 days there. The food was excellent, I am a vegetarian and ate from the detox menu and found the variety and quality plenty to keep me interested. I was in one of the least expensive rooms but found really pleasant. Thank you to you all for making this holiday an amazing experience.

    I had a wonderful trip. Kamalaya was perfect for me, and for what I was looking for at this time. It is an expensive holiday, especially at Christmas, and in particular in the Suites, but it was worth it. Everything was done in a very low key, unfussed way and the comfort of guests is clearly at the centre of everything. The therapists are all excellent, experienced and very pleasant. The Wellness Sanctuary is extremely well managed and they were very flexible when I wanted to change to the Asian Bliss programme (so much better for me!). There were lots of lovely, unexpected touches, like complimentary classes (yoga, pilates, mediation, pranayama). I was surprised at the extent of them. There were several gifts during the visit including teas beautifully presented in a box, Kamalaya creams and shampoos, and a beautiful book. They didn’t charge for room service which I felt was a lovely touch. This made it feel like an experience instead of a business. I would go back, 100%. Everything ran very smoothly in terms of transfer and flights.

    Visited January 2016

    I enjoyed the stay at Kamalaya very much. It's a little spot in heaven. All staff were so friendly and helpful, the treatments were great. Even after 21 days I could stay even longer at this place. My room was absolutely big enough with all things a person could need. All day fresh fruit, water and tea. I even got some little presents during my stay, like an assortment of tea and the 10 years Kamalaya book, which is a great way to remember my days in this paradise. I particularly enjoyed to only have one program during my stay, so I had enough time to profit from the general program and could do a lot of sports for myself in the Gym and joined group classes in Yoga, Pranayama, Circuit Training, Pilates.....and I attended some interesting talks as also the Detox cooking class. On top I did book some other appointments in the wellness centre as for example the personal mentoring which I will go on with via skype from home. Food was very good and not too restrictive, even if I was in the ideal weight programme. I lost 3 kg, but even more important is that I became much fitter and this feels really good. It was a perfect holiday. I would recommend it, absolutely.

    I just spent 7 days at Kamalaya and loved every minute. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, I was so grateful that I had chosen it as the place to re-charge and 'embrace change' before starting a new job. I didn't expect it to have such a profound impact on me but it really was a little slice of paradise, with a very calm and enriching energy. It is the perfect place to come and contemplate your life, to make some changes to your mind and body, to re-charge your batteries, to detox, or simply lie by the pool. 

    There are so many interesting treatments and classes on offer there is always something fascinating and relaxing to do. The international group of therapists were all outstanding - so intuitive, wise and knowledgeable I have come away with so much more awareness of life, my mind and health and have the tools to carry what I learnt with me. The staff were all so kind, friendly and attentive, the facilities wonderful - beautiful pools, delicious food (you are spoilt for choice!) I highly recommend Kamalaya, it is a very special soulful experience and I hope to return again soon. Thank you to all the wonderful staff for making it such a beautiful, life changing experience not just a lovely holiday.
