About this tour
When Em from our team booked the Fah Lanna Honeymoon package at this Chiang Mai spa, she got a solid four hours of pampering: herbal steam, tamarind scrub, Thai herbal bath, aromatherapy massage, and a five-step facial. The spa's won awards and sits in a town that's equal parts backpacker hub and laid-back local hangout. It's the kind of place where couples go to dial back the pace mid-holiday, and the therapists clearly know their craft. No surprises, just thorough relaxation.
Highlights
- Herbal steam opens pores before the full treatment sequence
- Tamarind and sea salt scrub removes dead skin effectively
- Aromatherapy oil massage (or hot oil, aloe vera, cream alternatives available)
- Five-step facial addresses skin type with precision
- Award-winning spa with solid reputation in Chiang Mai
- Wheelchair accessible and easy to reach by public transport
- Massage therapists attentive and technically skilled
What to expect
You'll arrive at a calm, well-kept spa in central Chiang Mai — nothing flash, but clean and professional. Em arrived 15 minutes early as instructed to fill out a consultation card (they ask about pressure preference, allergies, any problem areas). The four hours rolls through each treatment back-to-back with minimal downtime between stations. The herbal steam hits first and is genuinely warming; the scrub is vigorous but not harsh. The Thai herbal bath follows, then you're on the massage table for the oil work. The facial wraps it up and feels thorough, not rushed. Chiang Mai itself is a relaxed city — temples, night bazaars, cheap eats — so this spa slot slots nicely into a slower itinerary.
Pacing-wise, four hours moves steadily. You're not lounging poolside between treatments; it's structured and efficient. The therapists communicated well with Em about pressure and preferences. One heads-up: if you're running late, they'll hold your slot for only 15 minutes max. Miss that window and you lose your booking time (though you can reschedule, not refund).

Good to know
This is a proper couples experience — not a commercial factory line. You're both treated simultaneously in a shared space, which keeps the intimacy intact. Four hours is enough to feel genuinely unwound rather than just ticked off a list. The package offers massage swaps (hot oil, aloe vera, cream) so you can tailor it. Wheelchair accessible, public transport nearby, and suitable for all fitness levels. Locals and tourists both use it, so it doesn't feel touristy-trapped.
Service charges and tips aren't included, so budget extra on top of the package price. The cancellation policy is strict — late arrivals lose the slot. Arrive 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork or you'll eat into your treatment time. Chiang Mai can be hot and humid; the spa is air-conditioned but you're stepping into that heat before and after. No packages for solo travellers here — it's couples only, so bring your partner.
Bring a light change of clothes; you'll want something loose after a full scrub and massage. The package includes the treatments and local taxes; everything else (tips, transport to the spa) is on you. Groups are two people per booking. Peak tourist season (Nov–Feb) books up faster.
