Tamarind Springs Forest Spa on Koh Samui is inspired by its superb location, bordering Lamai's tropical forest interior, where lush coconut groves gently slope into a valley of huge granite boulders. Built out of love and respect for Koh Samui's unique landscape, every effort has been made to fluidly integrate all man-made structures of this serene and exclusive Samui spa into Lamai's indigenous surroundings. Following the paths between giant granite outcrops, waterfalls and rock pools at Tamarind Springs Forest Spa, the first dedicated Samui day spa, you feel as if you've entered a realm of peace - a shift away from the apparent urgency of one's to-do-list into a magic space where time takes on a different dimension. In 2008, Tamarind Springs Forest Spa was awarded both 'The Award of Outstanding Performance for Health Tourism' by the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Asia Spa's highly coveted 'Day Spa of the Year Award for Excellence'.
