Angsana Spa - KL's best kept secret? 

I had read that the Angsana Spa, part of the Banyan Tree group, had opened at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in KL earlier this year. However, they've been very quiet in their advertising so it slipped to the back of my mind until TT reminded me last week.

Anyhow, being the impatient one that I am and taking advantage of the public holiday this weeks, I booked us into the spa today.

I think the Angsana Spa has to be one of KL's best kept secrets. Situated on the 5th floor of the Crown Plaza Hotel (formerly known as Mutiara and formerly known as the KL Hilton before that), the Spa has over 20 rooms with 2 outdoor pavilions.

We booked ourselves in for the Essence of Angsana programme - Bliss and Essentials.

Bliss is a 180-minute session which includes a 30-minute body polish, 60-minute massage, 60 minute facial and a flower bath. G chose the Olive Plum Healer body polish which included plum powder and brown sugar in olive oil.

The Essentials programme included a 60-minute massage and 60-minute facial. I extended the massage to 90-minutes to co-incide with G's timing. I had the Ibu's Secret massage, which is a Balinese deep-tissue massage using my chosen Ylang Ylang oil. For the facial, I chose the Angsana Facial, which uses natural products. I can vouch for this because I could smell each product they used which included yoghurt, honey, almond, soya and milk. My skin feels so nice after that.

The other facials they have on offer (Euro Star, Cool Operator and Marma Point) all use commercial products.

I can't wait to go back again to try the Rainmist programme!

oh .. another note. I made reservations via the net and they actually replied! Their website is also up-to-date. I think that's great.
