Angsana Spa, Bintan Indonesia


Was in Bintan last week and upon a friend's recommendation, I went to the Angsana Spa.
I was not disappointed. It was exactly like how my friend described.

True service and pampering.

Before the treatment starts, the therapist enquired of any areas which need to be concentrated on when massaged. She asked if there are any allergies. Then we were encouraged to relax and take in the beautiful surrounding before treatment starts.

I opted for the Glow treatment.
Glow is a 120 minute session which is divided into, 30 minute body polish, 60 minute body massage and 30 minute calm time. For all that it was US$90++

The therapist hands were like butter on my skin when she began massaging.

She was obviously well trained. Throughout, she asked me if I was comfortable and if the pressure was alright.

Below the massage bed there was also an infusion of aromatherapy essential oils of my choice to relax me.

I left the spa feeling wonderful and can't wait to visit again.

That is not surprising, considering that Angsana Spa an off-shoot of the award winning Banyan Tree Spa is ranked among the best "Overseas Urban Day Spa" in the prestigious Conde Nast Traveller Readers' Spa Awards 2004.
