3. Kamalaya Koh Samui in Thailand

This resort is not luxurious in the extent of its lavishness, but in its detailed approach to wellness and tranquility. Upon arrival, guests are greeted by signature mocktails and the opportunity to design their own wellness experience for the duration of their stay. Five-star meals, customizable spa sessions, and exercise classes are all amenities available to guests. The property sits atop a hill looking out to miles of sandy white beach and lagoons, with a seemingly effortless blend of the building’s architecture and the jungle that surrounds it.
