RAKxa Wellness

Bangkok's fully integrative medical-wellness retreat on the green island of Bang Krachao.

RAKxa pairs a doctor-led clinic — in partnership with VitalLife, Bumrungrad International's longevity arm — with Thai healing arts on Bang Krachao, the jungle island in the Chao Phraya. The most serious wellness address within reach of a Bangkok landing.

Highly recommended, and the most convenient of the Thai set — you fly into Bangkok and you're there in about an hour. You trade the calm of the ocean for proximity, but it's removed enough from the crazy of the city.Field note · Editor’s shortlist
