The luxurious Spa Village Pangkor Laut, was officially opened by the illustrious tenor Luciano Pavarotti on 6 September 2002. This is a unique retreat that extols the healing cultures of the region. Malaysia, with its diverse history of people and cultures, and a vast abundance of natural resources, provides the backdrop for the health rituals that are amongst the oldest in the world. The abundance of Malay, Chinese, Indian and Thai practices makes this the ideal setting for complete rejuvenation.
The Spa Village is a collection of low buildings and structures, featuring both indoor and open-air spaces, spread over 4 acres on a quiet bay between the sea and the rainforest. Designed to soothe and refresh the senses, the various buildings face the sea, and are interspersed with open courtyards, lotus ponds, a herb garden, and a reflexology path.
The complex comprises 8 treatment pavilions, a deluxe Belian Treatment Pavilion, "Healing Huts," which include Chinese, Ayurvedic and Malay Huts, 2 Bath Houses, 3 Thai Pavilions, 3 Nap Gazebos, a Herbal Garden and a 50 metre lap pool. The Fisherman’s Cove Restaurant, Jamu Bar, Library and Spa Boutique is also located in the premise. 22 brand new Spa Villas situated over the sea offer direct access to the Spa Village.
Programmes combine physical and spiritual health and well being, and are based on one of four umbrella concepts: Rejuvenation and Longevity, Relaxation and Stress Reduction, Detoxification, and Romance. Guests seeking to fully experience the health rituals of the region are recommended to meet with the Chinese or Ayurvedic Specialists for consultation at the beginning of the stay.
Treatments at the Spa Village begin with the unique Bath House Ritual, representing various bathing traditions from around Asia. This starts with a footbath and an invigorating Chinese Foot Pounding, previously only enjoyed by the concubines of feudal China. From there guest will be escorted to the Bath Houses to enjoy the traditional Malay “circulating” bath, from when villagers bathed in streams or rivers, and a Japanese-style cleansing with a “goshi-goshi” cloth, followed by a dip in the heated Rotenburu pool. The professional spa staff will then give the guest the refreshing signature Shanghai Scrub, gently exfoliating and washing the body in the private scrub house. In Shanghai, this is traditionally offered exclusively to males. After the scrub, guest will enjoy a cup of calming tea in the tranquil surroundings before the spa treatment. It is recommended that guests allow forty-five minutes before their treatment to enjoy the facilities at Spa Village.
All of the treatments are conducted in private spa pavilions. Guests may choose from the extensive list of treatments on the menu or design their own treatments with the Custom Spa Experience, Ultimate Spa Experience or Traditional Spa Experience.
