Frequently asked questions
Which part of Koh Samui has the best massage?
Bo Phut, by a distance. Seven of the ten are there: Urban Thai, Dusita Spa 2, Urban Thai Massage, Thai Garden and the Nakee Bo Phut branch in the village, plus Cyan Spa and the Hansar resort spa in Fisherman's Village itself. Nakee also has branches in Lamai and Choengmon, and Thai Aroma is the pick on Chaweng Beach Road. If you are staying in Chaweng, Bo Phut is a short taxi ride and the calmer end of the island for it.
Which Samui spas stay open until midnight?
Five of them, all in Bo Phut: Urban Thai (from 09:00), Dusita Spa 2, Urban Thai Massage, Thai Garden and Nakee Bo Phut (all from 10:00). Nakee Lamai and Nakee Choengmon close at 23:00, Cyan at 23:00, and Thai Aroma on Chaweng Beach Road at 23:30. That is why the island's best massages are an after-dinner thing: eat in Fisherman's Village, walk it off, then book the hour.
Do I need to book a massage in Koh Samui?
Between December and February, yes, especially for evening slots. The therapists here are named in review after review, so regulars ask for them when they call; do the same if a name keeps appearing. Nakee has online booking pages for its Bo Phut and Lamai branches, and Cyan books at cyanspa-samui.com. One practical note: Cyan is cash only, and the nearest ATM does not take AMEX.
Are these resort spas or Thai massage shops?
Mostly massage studios doing classical Thai work: stretching and pressure along the lines, done fully clothed, so wear something loose. Say so when you book if you want gentler oil work instead. The exceptions are Cyan Spa, a full-service spa with body scrubs, sauna, and manicures done facing the beach, whose Cyan Package runs past three hours, and Hansar Samui, a beachfront resort whose spa is one part of the stay.
