Read on to discover some of Asia’s newest high-end hotels with a focus on wellness.
1. Anantara Ubud, Bali

With just 66 guest rooms and villas, this intimate sanctuary is nestled in Ubud’s verdant rainforest. It lies in proximity to the area’s Hindu temples and shrines, and is surrounded by the terraced rice fields that Ubud has become synonymous with.
Interiors at Anantara Ubud draw inspiration from local custom and tradition, while the Anantara Spa draws upon centuries of traditional healing philosophies to promote rest, relaxation and well-being among guests. The property is expected to open later this year.
2. Dao by Dorsett, Singapore

Inspired by the Chinese word dao, which means “the way”, Dao by Dorsett draws upon the philosophy that each traveller should carve out their own path and enjoy a stay that’s customised to their needs. The “apart-hotel” (hotel-style serviced apartments) boasts a custom plant library, single-use plastics have been reduced, and filtered water is available throughout the property.
Bathroom amenities are supplied by vegan beauty brand Abyssian, and the on-site wellness library includes yoga and fitness equipment, sweat blankets and LED red light therapy equipment available for guests to use. Hotel guests can also get their heart rate going with the complementary fitness cycles at the nearby Absolute Cycle studio.
