Hotel information
If you're looking to participate in a dedicated wellness programme or simply seeking an escape from everyday stresses then Kamalaya ticks all the boxes. This wellness sanctuary is hidden on a hillside on the south east corner of Koh Samui, leading down to a secluded private beach.
Accommodation is simple yet comfortable. Hillside Rooms and Sea View Suites are set on the hillside amongst the trees; the villas are more spacious, some with private pools and close to the beach.
The best way to experience Kamalaya is by booking a wellness programme. Whether the focus is detox, weight loss, fitness, stress relief or yoga, these holistic packages combine activities, spa treatments, healing therapies and, if necessary, dietary guidelines to achieve results. As you would expect, there are extensive wellness facilities and plenty of space amongst the natural surroundings to relax and reflect.
When it comes to dining, it's not all about raw food and denial! Kamalaya’s healthy cuisine is taste-bud tempting and creative. Yes - desserts and selected wines are available! You can choose to dine individually or with other guests on the "community table".

- If you're staying for more than a week we recommend upgrading to a Beachfront or Pool Villa for more space and privacy.
- Kamalaya encircles a centuries-old cave, once used by Buddhist monks as a place for meditation and spiritual retreat. Always open, the monks cave can still be used for quiet contemplation.
