W Retreat Koh Samui has unveiled details on aWay® Spa, the signature spa at the first W Retreat in Southeast Asia. Slated to open in late 2010, aWay® Spa will whisk away W Retreat Koh Samui guests, in-the-know locals, and island visitors alike to a playground of surprising sensations and signature treatments that detoxify, decompress and refuel in an aura of peace, silent beauty and simple elegance.
Distinct from any other spa in Southeast Asia, aWay® Spa will be a masterpiece of modern design with 576 square meters of indoor and outdoor spa treatment areas that allow for total privacy and complete renewal. aWay® Spa at W Retreat Koh Samui will fuse the sensory delights of glowing hues, playful scents, soothing sounds and energizing illumination with cutting-edge design and the distinctive vibe of Koh Samui, an oasis of natural beauty. Housed in five luxurious treatment pavilions, the seven treatment rooms include the whimsically named Khoasis, Thaim Out, Thaid Away, Khozy, Thai’d Up, and Khosseted. Every treatment room offers guests sweeping ocean views.
aWay® Spa will offer an exceptional wellness escape with signature treatments including massages, facial and body treatments, manicures and pedicures, as well as a range of treatments incorporating local Thai influences – whether it is ingredients, massage techniques or design details – in a cool and playful way.
The first of its kind in Asia, the Thaimazcal® herbal sauna/steam experience is a unique ritual to purify body and soul, based on inspiration drawn from the traditional Mexican-style Temazcal and now brought to Asia with a twist. One of the most ancient rituals of Mexican culture, it addresses the need for physical and mental purification, and offers an energetic communion with nature’s elements in order to feel reborn. aWay® Spa’s “Thaimazcal” treatment will incorporate delicious mocktails with Thai herbs, enlivening the treatment with W’s signature twist.
aWay® Spa’s “Gosh, Don’t You Look Well!” program includes a selection of seven wellness packages made up of exquisite baths, facials, and body wraps and scrubs; muscle-loving massages as well as lymphatic drainage and reflexology massage; and detoxifying juices and light bites packed with vital nutrients. Going a la carte, guests may also choose from a variety of seven massages paired with signature aroma blends – Wonderlicious, Wonderful or Wonderfit – to suit every mood. aWay® Spa’s irresistible spa menu also includes natural food-based body scrubs and wraps, as well as heavenly bath therapies infused with local Thai ingredients and exquisite essential oils.
Whether it’s time to retreat from the action or gear up for the exhilaration that awaits at W Retreat Koh Samui, aWay® Spa’s signature facial treatments offer a wellspring of world-class beauty therapies featuring Dermalogica, an intensive care system utilizing the latest advances in ingredient technology together with age-old treatment traditions. aWay® Spa’s Dermalogica Gold Facial Therapy, inspired by 14th-century Chinese and ancient Egyptian beauty treatments, is packed with the powerful Gamma PGA moisturizer, which penetrates the skin to deliver superior moisture and lock in hydration, improving elasticity while brightening the skin. Exclusive, celebrity-approved face and body treatments will be added to the aWay® Spa menu after the opening of W Retreat Koh Samui.
aWay® Spa guests will also have prime access to expert manicures and invigorating pedicures, skin and body products for purchase, TONIC juice bar and W Retreat Koh Samui’s state-of-the-art, fully equipped SWEAT® Fitness Center, offering a comprehensive array of Technogym cardio, strength and free-weights equipment, in addition to a yoga room and personal trainers upon request.
