Keemala

After 6 months of illness this is my first trip away from home and my first to a wellness retreat. All i can say is that, whilst pricy, it is worth every penny. Staff are exceptional, villa is fantastic, facilities are perfect and the spa is just excellent (special note to Duen, one of the best therapists I have had in Asia). The restaurant has more options than I can manage and whilst I am having to eat healthy, the pork belly is to die for. Tranquility and perfect weather are helping me to get back to full health. Only downside is a bit of distant traffic noise late at night but it does not affect the overall peace at this amazing resort.

Keemala is a very special place. Not only unique location and design, but most of all a wonderful quality of service at all levels, and the nicest people. Starting from the reception and hospitality (thank you so much Khun March, you were great) to the whole staff at the restaurant (thank you so much for always knowing what we want and need), incredible kitchen, to top level spa, and finally Khun Daniel - great yoga, breathing and meditation teacher. At the end of our stay we felt like we were leaving our second home. We will be back! Anna & Dariusz

Celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here at Keemala and it was truly a very special experience. The property is gorgeous, away from the noise and people above Kamala Beach. It is very serene and peaceful, very private and beautiful. Highly recommend the Bird's Nest as this was a grand villa, with a huge pool, even larger than king sized bed, and big rain shower and separate 2 person tub. Maithai was an excellent concierge, always available to answer any questions and otherwise, available to ensure our stay at Keemala was special. This resort has an exclusive feel with incredible amenities. The restaurant on site, Mala, has an abundance of food choices for all meals, and the In Villa Dining was really special. The pool was beautiful although we didn't see a need to use since we had our own. And the spa was perfect and convenient. Duen and Kwan provided us with a very relaxing Harmonising Couple's Massage. Highly recommend the extra cost to stay at Keemala. Worth every single cent. It truly is Beyond Enchanting.

Our stay at Keemala was fantastic. The private pool villa was amazing: spacious, beautifully designed and with an incredible view. The bed was super comfortable, the minibar was well stocked and the villa even had two showers, including a great outdoor one. The staff were extremely kind and professional, always happy to help with anything. Breakfast was delicious with Thai and Western options, fresh fruit, pastries and great coffee, and the cocktails at the bar were excellent too. A truly pleasant stay.

Keemala is absolutely stunning. We were upgraded to a Spa Sanctuary villa and really appreciated the extra space. From the moment you arrive it just feels special. We were welcomed (and well taken care of throughout!) by Maithai, our villa host, who was *fabulous*. Food and drink in the restaurant was consistently delicious as was the service from the entire team. Special additional mention to Joy, our Villa housekeeping attendant. The special touches each day were so thoughtful.
