You Get TWO massages A Day At The Six Senses Destination Spa, Phuket

Booking plane ticket as we speak

 



Those who partied too much in Bangkok might consider it "rehab;" we just like to think of it as a healthy retreat. Because that's exactly what Six Senses Destination Spa, Phuket really is. A haven for those who just need to be brought back to reality and be mindful of their bodies. Not in that weird, hippie kind of way, but more like "be aware of what you eat, drink and how you play." This place is detox for grown-ups, who don't want to give up the luxury of... well, luxury.

On a private island just outside of Phuket, this nice little haven opened just over a year ago and since has been the ultimate playground for celebrities and affluent travelers who want a super-intense cleanse without having to do that one-week juice diet. All the meals are organic and incredibly fresh (we're talking like they plucked those carrots right from their garden in the morning). There's a massive spa (two massages included daily!) that offers all sorts of awesome treatments (colon cleanse, anyone? Believe us: worth it). While other, similar retreats deprive you of alcohol, they actually serve biodynamic, organic wines. Score!

And there's nothing like free bikes, kayaks, yoga classes, holistic fitness activities, indoor and outdoor gym and like a million swimming pools (including your own private plunge pool with your posh villa). Stay as long as you want, you'll never really want to leave. It's like that true, unforgettable island getaway so worth it that you won't have the urge to smuggle in a Diet Coke.
