Koh Lanta’s five-star Pimalai Resort & Spa resort has been redefining luxury hospitality on the Andaman Islands since it launched almost two decades ago. The award-winning property, located on the laid-back southern tip, cascades through 40 hectares of tropical jungles to one of Thailand’s best beaches, Kantiang Bay.In the 2019 World Luxury Spa and Restaurant Awards, announced on 6 July in St Petersburg, Pimalai added not one, but two of the much-coveted World Luxury Spa awards to their trophy cabinet:
Luxury Spa Retreat – Thailand
Luxury Resort Spa – Thailand
The World Luxury Spa and Restaurant Awards recognise establishments for world-class service excellence. Awards are presented on a country, regional, continental and global basis. Winners are selected by public vote online, providing true recognition that reflects the hard work and dedication exhibited by staff.“We congratulate this year’s winners. True luxury is not easily attained. It takes highly efficient and dedicated staff, who are willing to go the extra mile and stop at nothing to ensure that every guest feels cared for and no challenge goes unresolved. This is the definition of luxury. It is what makes the winners shine,” said World Luxury Awards Group marketing director, Michael Hunter-Smith.With no immediate neighbours, the 121-room resort is a serene sanctuary where guests can feel completely at peace in their private surroundings. Guests can indulge in an array of on-site wellness experiences, ranging from traditional Muay Thai classes and early evening tennis matches to pampered afternoons for singles or couples at the signature Pimalai Spa, which offers a combination of traditional and contemporary techniques to rejuvenate body, mind and soul.For the ultimate in relaxation and pampering, select from Pimalai’s one- to seven-day Signature Day Packages.Want to be in the luxury travel know?
