The Pavilions, Phuket is expanding with a scheduled November 2010 opening of 24 new pool villas, each one designed with its own fully-equipped, stand-alone spa.
Rather than ask guests to leave the sanctuary of their pool villa to visit a central health club, or have therapists create a makeshift spa with portable massage tables, each new villa boasts its own individual spa.
Measuring 60 m², an area much larger than most luxury hotel rooms, the private spa is an extension of the villa and includes a separate steam shower room. While enjoying a treatment, couples overlook an oriental-themed courtyard, complete with a water feature and lush, densely-packed bamboo plants.
Within their personal spa facility, couples can experience the rejuvenating benefits of a treatment from a professional therapist. The therapist will enter the spa facility via a separate side entrance, ensuring guests’ privacy is never compromised and their time in the villa is uninterrupted.
The Pavilions’ spa menu includes both traditional Thai techniques and Western spa rituals. Guests can indulge in a rejuvenating massage, a cleansing facial or a nourishing body scrub, all within the quiet comfort of their own private spa.
Nestled within a terraced hill and bordered by tropical greenery, this latest expansion will add to the 25 private retreats now available at The Pavilions. Built on a former rubber plantation, the 24 new villas comprise six Plantation Pool Penthouses and 18 Plantation Pool Pavilions.
Located on the west side of the island just 20 minutes from Phuket International airport, The Pavilions sits on a hilltop with panoramic views of the surrounding Bang Tao area.
The Pavilions is a member of the highly respected Relais & Châteaux group.
