Newly Opened Intimate Island Resort Offers One of the Largest Spas in Phuket

If you’re feeling the winter city blues already and pining for the next beachy holiday, you’d be glad to know that Starwood Hotels and Resorts have opened their brand new luxury Spa Naka at the Naka Island, an exclusive boutique resort located just off Phuket, Thailand.

Naka Yai Island is only 25 minutes from Phuket International Airport and accessible only by a 5 minute private speedboat (Miami Vice anyone?). The spa offers 8 private treatment suites, including four couple suites that feature outdoor rainforest showers, a private plunge pool, a steam room and steam bed.

Spa Naka has a whole range of treatments you can indulge in, such as the Spa Naka Thai Temptation, a three-hour relaxation therapy that includes a little from all the Spa Naka experiences. Start off with a full-body steam followed by the ancient Secret Thai Herbal steam and Thai Scrub. Then finish with a full-body Thai massage and the Secret Thai Facial.

Spend some time in the spa’s indigenous inspired design, with a layout resembling a quiet Thai village. There are serene paths surrounded by lush foliage and water features, including a Watsu pool. By the time you make your trip home, you’ll be feeling totally refreshed.
