Australian wellness seekers are in for a rare treat this October, as Thailand’s award-winning Kamalaya Wellness Sanctuary brings its transformative experience to our shores for one special week. Winner of more than 75 global industry awards, Kamalaya Koh Samui will present its first-ever Australian pop-up experience at the renowned Aurora Spa & Bathhouse in Sorrento, Victoria, from 13-17 October 2025.
‘For two decades Kamalaya has inspired and transformed the health and wellbeing of our guests, and we look forward to bringing a taste of our unique offering to Australia and empowering more people to take proactive and positive steps to good health and longevity,’ said Kamalaya General Manager, Gopal Kumar who will lead the expert team of therapists and practitioners.

Retreat guests will also enjoy the acclaimed Aurora Spa & Bathhouse with immersive bathhouse rituals, float therapy and spa treatments on offer.
