I really enjoyed my stay at the Absolute Santuary.. the rooms were so clean and the property was nice. I especially enjoyed the Pilates with Kevin. The spa was nice too .. the only thing I feel is that they should include all the classes in their rate instead of paying for everything seperately.

Value for money is very good here when compared to some of the other resorts which I have stayed at and looked at. The menu has good range and is healthy, the rooms are clean, comfortable, quiet and the staff are pleasant. This is somewhere you can get well and healthy.

Only go if you’re there for the health part

If you’re after complete and total healthiness then this place is for you. Everybody there is so focused on their personal journey to being detoxed or whatever they’re going through it can be a bit boring for people who are just there for a holiday.

Peaceful and relaxing

I was looking for an escape to enjoy a quiet time but able to exercise, do some yoga and eat well, so Absolute Sanctuary was a perfect place. I booked to stay in a seaview room and got what I wanted. The room was spacious and clean but a little dated for the price so a bit of update or refurbishment will be great. Staff members are all very courteous and helpful. Classes are run by professional instructors. Food was delicious and breakfast is more than generous. WiFi in the room is very poor but if you look to stay disconnected, then you'll get by. Last but not least, the hotel should mention on the website that there are lots of steps so definitely not suitable for people with knee problem.

Nice Place, Need Some Improvement

The hotel is nice with cozy rooms, I loved the yoga classes and food from the restaurant, it's really good. Shuttle service for going to mall/town is great. However the reasons I didn't give it a 5 star includes: confusing communications sometimes from the staff when booking for massage/spa therapy services, a few times they told me the practitioner haven't confirm and change my booking last minute which can be quite annoying, this is after they told me everything has been booked. The different kinds of oil massages are all the same and I didn't quite enjoy them, I thought the best massage is the Thai massage. Staff are usually friendly but did run into a few that's not very polite. I loved the room, however bathroom always had draining problems for shower and toilet. The gym is very basic with old machines. Also, the electricity would sudden stop during the day, they said it's because it's a tropical area therefore it's not stable. But I've stayed at other hotels in Koh Samui and never had that problem. For the price, it's OK, I did enjoy myself, but likely I will try other similar type of wellness resort next time.

It was fine but the staffs were strangely less friendly! I incurred 2 prob. one was finding their location. the location shown in goodle map was 9 min away from the correct location! it took us extra one hour to find the location. then upon arriving they said they dont allow kids below 12. you can just imagine my surprise level with my 7 year old. Doesn't Hotel.com know this? later they allowed upon signing a bond.

Geweldige kwalitatieve yoga- & pilates studio

Een ideale plek als je kwalitatieve yoga en pilates lessen wilt hebben. Vooral het uitgebreide aanbod van diverse yoga lessen en leraren is heel fijn voor zowel de gevorderde als beginnende yogi/yogini. De pilates studio heeft plek voor 6 pilates reformer machines en zeer kundige leraren. Daarnaast is er ook core suspend training, geweldig voor iedereen die houdt van een mix tussen fitness-yoga-acrobatiek-dans-pilates, ik ben er verzot op geworden. Het zwembad is prettig, schoon en bevat minimaal chloor. De staff is vriendelijk en behulpzaam, als je vriendelijk bent, doen ze alles voor je met alle liefde. Het hotel zelf en de staat van het resort is niet meer de volledige 4 sterren waard. Hou je van echt luxe omgeving is dit niet je plek. De kamers zijn voldoende, maar wel erg luide airco en ventilatoren, alhoewel je daar snel aan went. De keuken/restaurant is niet zoveel in gebruik aangezien de meeste mensen er komen voor detox en dus op sapjes leven gedurende hun verblijf. Het eten is best duur als je het vergelijkt met Thaise begrippen, maar wel heel puur en gezond. Wel weinig echt variatie en je moet duidelijk aangeven hoe je iets wilt hebben. Voor de kwaliteit die ik van de Love Kitchen gewend was, viel het tegen, maar met behulp van het super leuke personeel kwamen we er wel uit, maar het komt niet overheen met de website. Zelfde met de fitness lessen en zaal, die is echt niet 4 sterren, amper 1 ster.....geen aanrader als je daarvoor komt. Wellicht in toekomst beter!

Good yoga classes, average accommodation

The yoga studio and the yoga instructors were very good. Yoga classes are offered in different styles and I think can satisfy most people. The accommodation, however, was a bit disappointing, perhaps overpriced for the quality. The walls looked as if they had been painted by a kid for fun and their grey and dull yellow shades were depressing for me. It is supposed to be of a Moroccan theme but not a successful one. Simple invory/wooden colored Thai style decoration would have been much more calming. The walls were thin. Neighbors' voices were quite audible even though they were not talking particularly loud. My room smelled of some sort of chemical, possibly the bathroom cleaning liquid or a paint. I kept the doors open for hours to change the air and the hotel tried to do something about it but the smell did not completely disappear. The hotel is not close to shoppining/dining areas, but the hotel provided free shuttle bus services to a major street. This was helpful as taxi fares are very high in Samui and I preferred to eat outside of the hotel (most food served at the hotel were vegetarian). Since the yoga classes are very good, if the accommodation is better, the overall experience could be even better.
