MANTRA FOREST SPA

Super place, went there few times, can spend there the whole day however it was a lot of package tourist, that were brought there for 2 or 3 hour, mostly during lunch time so it was overcrowded. But you can find the calm space anyway. The cafe was Russian food, first my visit everything was amazing at cafe, my 2nd visit we have waited for order items over 40 min, its too long but we just tried to enjoy the moment (even hungry). Different hot tubs, swimming pool are super gorgeous, enjoyed all

Beautiful and charming Thai-style spa – but best to visit before the crowds arrive This is a wonderful place with lots of charm and heart, beautifully designed in authentic Thai style. Everything is clean, well maintained, and the different pools are fantastic. We spent the whole day there, from noon until closing. In the beginning, it was pleasantly busy, but thanks to the spacious layout, it didn’t feel crowded. However, around 3 p.m. several buses with tourists arrived, and it suddenly became packed. The small round hot pools were completely full, and we had to wait to use them. It rained all day, and unfortunately, there are no covered lounge areas—only umbrellas—so there was nowhere dry to relax after the sauna. The only sheltered seating is near the reception and restaurant, which isn’t really suitable for resting between sauna sessions. As someone who wears glasses, I would have appreciated a small shelf or safe spot near the pools to place them, as well as some hooks to hang towels instead of putting them on the wet ground—especially on a rainy day. The toilet and changing area could also use some improvement: there are only two showers and also too few changing cabins, so towards closing time, it caused some waiting time. I also wish some of the (mostly Russian) visitors showed a bit more respect for others. One woman simply occupied my changing cabin while my things were still inside. In the sauna, loud talking was common, which ruined the relaxing atmosphere. A sauna should be a quiet place to unwind. When the buses arrived, some families with children came too, and I think the management should encourage parents to keep them calm—this is a spa, not a playground. All in all, it’s a truly beautiful place, and I’ll definitely come back—but only in the morning or early afternoon, before the crowds arrive, and certainly not during high season, since it was already very busy even in the low season.

The spa has a truly beautiful setting the area is gorgeous, with huge pools and a nice restaurant serving tasty food. The water lily spot is especially stunning and makes the place feel very unique. Unfortunately, the experience was significantly ruined by poor service. The receptionists at both entrances (the main entrance and the photo entrance) were rude and unwelcoming, which is not what you expect from a premium spa. The environment also felt very crowded, with many people sharing the hot bathtubs (around 5–6 per tub), and it didn’t feel very relaxing or even hygienic. Overall, the location is beautiful, but the service and overcrowding really take away from the experience.
