The Geo Spa at Four Seasons Resort, Langkawi
This is one of our top favorite spas in Langkawi. Why? The sheer serene ambience and the wide range of spa treatments available can satisfy one and all. Geo Spa (also known as just The Spa) is located at one end of the vast Four Season Resort compound in Tanjung Rhu area.
While you can walk, the resort offers battery operated cart to reach the spa. And then you will be treated to some outstanding therapies that are based on old traditional Malay methods of healing. That is of course if you choose a treatment or a traditional massage. There are several other services offered by the spa including facials, wraps, scrubs, manicure, pedicure, yoga etc. And the list of treatments in the menu is extensive.
Lotus Pool at Geo Spa
The best part of the spa is the rainforest around it and the beautiful lotus pool at the center. The pool is fringed by yoga platforms and spa rooms for treatments. But the couple of platforms or pavilions floating right on the water are our favorites for experiencing a spa session. The inviting beds on the pavilions are ideal place to get your spa treatment or a full body massage as you lay in the middle of water watching the rainforest and hearing the chirps of the birds.
