I felt a little nostalgic when I left the Mangosteen Resort. I was there for 10 days and wished I would’ve stayed for an entire month. I’m ready to come back again in the future. This gorgeous place is a piece of paradise with a stunning view. I adore the pool and all of the surroundings.
What I loved most was the wonderful hospitality of the owners, Hajo and Rose. They will make you feel like a special friend that came to visit them.
I couldn’t have made this trip happen if it weren’t for Mr. Hajo. He assisted me to get to Phuket with the proper documentation. Mr. Hajo went above and beyond to make sure everything was in place.
All the Villas look beautiful surrounded by pure nature, my Villa was a dream inside and out. I felt beyond spoiled! Fresh fruit and water every day in a super clean room. The bed and pillows are very, very good, I slept wonderfully. Hot water and great air conditioner and TV.
I did the Panchakarma wellness program/retreat for 7 days out of my 10 days stay. Doctor Shanbhag is outstanding. He will sit down with you to come up with a customized program for you, based on your needs. I highly recommend people to come here to do one of their wellness retreats. You’ll feel healthier at the end and with a good knowledge of how to continue when you go back to your home.
I spoke with three other guests that were doing the Ayurveda program, and we talked about how divine it is and how good the detox has made them feel. We saw a huge difference. One of the couples told me they were thinking they might extend their stay for one more week. That’s how good it is!
My therapist, Bee, is such a sweet and gentle lady. Her hands are magic with her wonderful massages and treatments. She always made me feel so welcome and comfortable to enjoy and relax the therapy of the day.
I recommend guests to join the two daily Yoga sessions. I had the opportunity to meet a few of the teachers. Each will have a special, gentle, and meaningful class that will make you feel in the clouds, so relax.
One day, a small group of guests went with the owners for a wonderful morning walk/soft hike with stunning views outside the resort. We all truly enjoyed it and it gave us the opportunity to talk and learn a bit about us.
The resort has a shuttle that takes you to a nice beach nearby.
The food at the restaurant is delicious: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have a regular menu, delicious, but also have a special menu for the wellness (Ayurveda and Panchakarma, etc.) programs which are beyond what I expected, clean/organic and full of flavors. The staff at the restaurant: Chefs/Cooks and waiters are a wonderful team that make you feel welcome and take care to feed you well.
Thank you all for making me feel so special and well taken care of.
