Experience the Essence of Koh Samui with ‘Holistic Coconut Journey’ from Santiburi Koh Samui

The new package is a luxurious celebration of Thailand’s cherished plant through the interconnected lenses of wellness, culture and culinary artistry.

Koh Samui, THAILAND – Santiburi Koh Samui, the luxury retreat by S Hotels & Resorts located on a coconut palm-fringed shore, is unveiling an immersive new experience that celebrates the heart and soul of Thailand’s “Coconut Island.” The Holistic Coconut Journey offers a harmonious blend of organic spa therapies, culinary indulgence, cultural exploration and sustainable community engagement – all inspired by the versatile and beloved coconut.  

The Green Globe-certified Santiburi Koh Samui is set within a lush 23-acre coconut grove where 600 trees are carefully nurtured as an embodiment of the resort’s commitment to sustainability, while also providing meaningful employment opportunities for local gardeners and farmers. By sourcing coconuts directly from the local community, Santiburi Koh Samui strengthens its connection to Samui’s cultural and agricultural heritage.  

Guests begin their coconut-inspired journey with a refreshing drink made with young coconut or coconut flower, accompanied by a traditional Miang Kham ball—a Thai herbal delicacy that bursts with the perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavours, with roasted coconut at its heart.  

The adventure continues with a two-hour tour of the Coconut Museum, where guests can experience the traditional art of coconut oil production. From peeling and scraping to squeezing and distilling, visitors participate in hands-on activities and take home freshly made coconut oil – a personal keepsake that will also feature in their upcoming spa treatment.  

The journey then delves into the culinary arts with a rare dessert-making workshop, also held at the museum. Here, guests craft Kanom Kee Mun, a traditional Thai sweet made from the by-products of coconut oil production. This treasured dessert offers a taste of cultural heritage rarely found today, adding a deliciously immersive touch to the experience

The highlight of the experience is the signature ‘Journey of Samui’ spa treatment, a holistic indulgence infused with the soothing essence of coconut. After a calming foot bath and herbal steam, a gentle coconut body scrub exfoliates and hydrates. Then, a warm or cool coconut oil massage replenishes sun-kissed skin with antioxidants.. Guests will also plant a young coconut tree, leaving a lasting symbol of their bond with Koh Samui.  

The day concludes with an exquisite set dinner at Sala Thai, featuring standout dishes such as spiced coconut custard with seafood served in a mini coconut; spicy and sour Thai prawn soup made with fresh coconut water; red coconut curry with duck breast, lychee and grape; and a decadent chocolate coconut parfait with raspberries.  

As they return to their room, guests will discover homemade coconut cookies or delicious savoury bites by their bedside, rounding off their coconut-inspired journey with a delightful and personal note.  

“Koh Samui is known as the ‘Coconut Island’ for good reason; with more than three million palm trees, coconut production remains the island’s second-largest industry after tourism,” said Mr. Giulio Stix, General Manager of Santiburi Koh Samui “The ‘Holistic Coconut Journey’ package was designed to give our guests a deeper appreciation for this cherished tree, which has sustained life on Samui for centuries by providing everything from food and shelter to medicine and craft material. To this day, coconuts are vital to the livelihoods of many islanders, and we’re proud to share this story with our visitors.”

The ‘Holistic Coconut Journey’ package starts from THB 12,100+++ for a three-night stay that can be extended. The price includes villa accommodation with breakfast for two people, a coconut welcome drink, Coconut Museum tour, ‘Journey of Samui’ spa experience, a four-course set dinner at Sala Thai and turndown service with coconut treats.
