Costs and
Practicalities
(Prices have probably gone up
from those quoted - please check if you are thinking of
going.)
Flights from the UK to
Bangkok are perhaps £6-700 return (8-9 hours). Then there is a
local flight by Bangkok Airways to Koh Samui. This is around
£150-£200 return (1 hour). You can also travel from Bangkok to
Samui by land and boat to reduce the cost.
A taxi from the
airport to the resort is a few pounds.
Once at the resort, the seven day colon
cleansing costs around 12,000 Baht (2009 -
£230, $300, 230 Euros). (Check here for prices.) As you are
eating nothing for seven days, there is little to spend on
food. You may spend $8-10 (£6) a day on carrot juice,
broth, coconut milk and liver flushes. There is a good and
very reasonably priced restaurant at the resort itself, so
you can look forward to making good use of this after
the colon cleansing has ended.
In 2003 there were two centres of the resort; the "Beach" and
the "Village". Since then, a third colon
cleansing centre has been added on a separate
island on nearby Koh Chang. Both islands are reachable by
plane from Bangkok airport.

The Beach
The Beach is right on the
beach and is the original resort. The cheapest "bungalows"
were extremely basic in 2003, and not recommended.
Refurbishment has now taken place, so probably these have now
been improved. The next level up can have air
conditioning, and I would recommend this. These bungalows will
also be more "creature-proof".
The rooms at the Beach resort are a steal - from 1200
baht (2009 - £25, $30) a night including air conditioning
. There has been considerable refurbishment over the past 5
years and air conditioning and western-style bathrooms have
been added to many of the old rooms as well as most of the new
rooms.
The view across the bay
from many of these rooms is fantastic.
The Village
The Village resort is about
a mile away and was completed in 2003. At the time, it was
much more modern, clean and tidy than the beach resort.
However, the beach has been extensively refurbished since then
so there is probably not much difference now.
There are fantastic views over the trees to the bay. Being on
hilly ground, there is a certain amount of difficult walking at
the Village. The nicest (most expensive) bungalows have the
highest climbs.
At the time of visiting, the ambience of the Village was not as
relaxing and pleasant as that of the Beach - because it was so
new. This may well change with time.
Some visitors stay near to the Spa Samui resort, and just come
in for the cleansing drinks and colemas. This is quite
possible, and there are numerous "bungalows" for rent very
near. If you are on a very low budget, this might be the option
for you.
To Book
To book accommodation for
colon cleansing at the Spa, contact them through their web site
(address at the end of the article). When you check out, there
might be a supplement for paying with a credit card
- check for this before you go.
Car hire is available locally from around £15 (2009 - $20, 15
Euros) a day. If you have a few days at the end of the cleanse,
you can relax while looking round the island. For the good of
your health, I would recommend ending your cleanse with a few
days of relaxation. This would make the minimum recommended
stay 12-13 days - 7 days for the fast, 2-3 days getting your
digestive system used to eating again, and 3 days of relaxation
before returning home.
Email facilities are available at the resort and other
locations nearby.
If you go to one of these resorts for your colon
cleansing please do let me know how you get on.
