A handful of Thai celebrities, who’ve certainly sampled
some of the best spas Thailand has to offer, stamped the Pattaya Hilton’s
new Eforea Spa with their highest seal of approval as the hotel officially
opened the doors on its new luxury service.
The spa offers state of the
art treatments in a luxurious setting with stunning ocean views.
Television idols Kamala “Ning” Kamphu Na Ayudhaya,
Nattanin “Kae” Kunanat and Patson `Pat`Sarindu were among the first to
sample the top-brand treatments at Eforea, an 880 sq. meter facility that
opened May 21. All three pronounced their treatments as the best they’ve
ever had.
The second Eforea in Thailand, the Pattaya Hilton’s spa offers six private
treatment pavilions containing state of the art equipment, personal changing
areas, steam showers and private relaxation spaces.

Eforea also features some of the world’s best-regarded
products both on the treatment menu and in the retail area, including
Kerstin Florian, LI’TYA and VitaMan.
“The Kerstin Florian products are very popular in the United States. After
using the service you feel soft, comfortable and very relaxed, because of
the experts taking care of every step of your treatment from head to toe,”
Kamala said. “You don’t fee muscle aches afterward, unlike some other spas
where you’re sore or have bruises afterward. Furthermore, it has a view of
nature looking outward to the Pattaya Beach.”
The Hilton’s pampering begins in the lobby, which features lighting that
grows in intensity as you approach the treatment rooms.

The changing area offers changing rooms with or without
showers and a care section within the thermal lounge. The transition or
relaxation area helps the guest to chill out and the treatment rooms are
cozy and intimate refuges, which are all equipped with an integrated sound
and aroma system that creates a relaxing wellness atmosphere by spreading
fragrances and relaxant music throughout the rooms.
As for the treatments, Eforea focuses on three core wellness treatments:
“External Journey” using Kerstin Florian products; “Escape Journey” with
LI´TYA goods and “Men’s Journey” using items from the VitaMan line.
“Essential Journey” uses Kerstin Florian products and corrective facial care
with “micro-current technology.” The treatment combines natural and medical
cosmetic agents and a progressive non-invasive lifting technique.
With “Escape Journey,” treatment is based on natural products and
alternative healing methods branded as Hilton “Head to Toe Revitalization.”
“With products rich in plant extracts and berries from Australia, the
treatment is really natural,” Natthanin said. “During treatment there are
burning herb flowers giving off smoke and smells of baking in the room for
calmness and more relaxation.”
Males are invited to try the “Men’s Journey” treatment offering “body
repair” massage with hot bamboo developed for Hilton spas. The rest of the
treatment employs the Australian men’s products from VitaMan.
The three celebrities talk
about their experience of the new Eforea Spa and give it their full
endorsement.
