A journey of well-being
Innovative boutique resort operator AHMS – The Collection has again revealed its pioneering spirit with the creation of Ayurah Wellness Centre, a new twist on the essential Asian spa experience as part of the rebirth of Aleenta Phuket-Phang Nga.
Setting a high-water mark for what a ‘new spa’ should be, Ayurah offers a cutting-edge range of treatments and a philosophy of ‘wellness that works’, utilising the best of modern medical wisdom and time-honoured traditional Thai treatments and world class beauty practices utilised by Hollywood high-flyers.
AHMS owner and managing director Anchalika Kijkanakorn, who is also chairman of the Board for Small Luxury Hotels of the World, said: “This is a concept very much of its time. Guests are now well versed on wellness and are looking for a more medical approach, integrating treatments into their holidays so they will leave feeling and looking great. They want a spa that delivers on its promises, that provides treatments which work, and that’s Ayurah.”
“Ayurah is also very much a lifestyle choice. We are talking about treatments where guests come three to four times a year, to ‘top up’ on making sure they are looking and feeling their very best. This can include full maintenance plans where guests will be able to come once or twice a month keeping them feeling beautiful and rejuvenated.”
Ayurah Wellness Centre will offer treatments including hydrotherapy and chromotherapy baths, nail and foot reflexology, oxygen and music therapy, a Vichy shower, a beauty lounge, a tranquil relaxation lounge and six treatment rooms for couples and singles. It further offers jet lag recovery, executive stress relief, body sentimentality treatment, a facial elixir treatment, a children’s spa introductory programme and a deluxe newlyweds spa experience.
The Edge restaurant is also integrated into the 360 lifestyle offering, with specially tailored culinary options – taking into consideration dietary concerns on the overall wellness offering – for guests to naturally detox their bodies while on holiday.
In addition, Ayurah Wellness Centre will feature a range of uncompromising premium products that guests will be able to use once they leave resort and continue treatments at home. These will be unveiled in August this year.
AHMS plans to roll out Ayurah Wellness Centres at all AHMS The Collection hotels and resorts, beginning with Aleenta Hua Hin-Pranburi and AKARYN Samui Resort & Spa this year.
