Kamalaya is a Wellness Sanctuary and Holistic Spa on the tropical island of Koh Samui, Thailand. Its integral concept is Holistic Wellness. Its location, facilities, programs, retreats, cuisine, and Kamalaya's Team together create a synergy of nurturing for your whole being. Centred around a monk's cave that once served Buddhist monks as a place of meditation and spiritual retreat, Kamalaya's essence is expressed in its name, 'Lotus (kamal) Realm (alaya)', an ancient symbol for the growth and unfolding of the human spirit. Kamalaya is a place where you can discover your Self, within a sanctuary of natural beauty, health specialists, and inspired teachers. Kamalaya honors the sacredness of solitude, and shares the joy of community.**Please be informed about some minor renovation works that are scheduled to take place at Kamalaya Koh Samui between October 2007 and January 2008. The overall works are mostly interiors and joinery work. The impact of the works for guests is very limited because they are in areas far away from the guest rooms, wellness areas, recreation areas and the pool and beach.
