The first Angsana Spa was founded in 1998 and since then, the group has branched out to include establishments in Australia, Maldives, Indonesia, India, Thailand and Taiwan.
Angsana Spa retreats are designed to be sanctuaries for the inner self, to refresh and rejuvenate your spirit as well as your physical being.

Privacy and tranquility allow you to shed the cares of the world while we pamper your body, as well as your mind, with our invigorating treatments. Better still, experience Angsana Spa with a loved one and rediscover essential sensory pleasures - from the pleasure of touch to the aroma of exotic oils like rosemary, lavender, jasmine and frangipani wafting the air.
