solo | Younger than 30 years | 4 - 8 days
My time at the Absolute Sanctuary on Koh Samui was great. The yoga classes were very varied and were well taught, the massages were the best I've ever had. And the food was delicious. Small touches, e.g. asking your favourite scent beforehand and then leaving it in the room each day - completed the holiday
Hotel
The hotel was very nice and well maintained. Immediately upon arrival you will be greeted nicely with a drink. Everything is clean and in great condition.
Service
The service at the hotel is wonderful. The staff try to read every wish from the lips and are extremely attentive. My only slight criticism is partly mediocre English skills of the staff at reception. A couple of times the communication was rather difficult. However they always tried!
Treatments
I had the best massage of my life. The staff know what they are doing and are very polite. At the end of a massage, even my hair was plaited so I spent the whole evening with a great hairstyle. The yoga classes were also very good. All teachers taught us alot!
Board type
The food was varied. I especially enjoyed the fresh juices and smoothies.
Wellness area
Everything was clean and well maintained. Steam room, massage rooms or pool corresponded 100% to my expectations.
