Angsana
Spa Introduces Thai & Asian Spa Remedies To The Pacific
Island Of Guam
Tropical Garden Spa in Guam a Planned Move to Strengthen
Banyan Tree Group’s Market Position in Oceania
Guam, USA, May 2003
Angsana Spa, a contemporary spa brand by the award-winning
Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts, will launch a new spa
in Guam Marriott Resort at Tumon Bay on 15 May 2003, in
a planned development to further its brand’s and
the group’s market position in the Oceania region.
The establishment of an Angsana Spa in the Pacific Islands
follows the opening of its first Day Spa in Sydney, Australia,
another key market in the Oceania region. This is the
first time that Thai and Asian spa remedies will be introduced
to spa aficionados in Guam. Created in October 1999 to
enable parent company, the Banyan Tree group, to diversify
into other markets and operations, the three-year-old
Angsana Spa has, to date, rapidly expanded to a total
of 14 spas in seven countries in Asia and the Pacific
including Australia, Thailand, Indonesia, India, Taiwan,
the Maldives, Hong Kong and Guam.
The name Angsana Spa is inspired by the statuesque Angsana
tree found in the tropical rainforest of Asia that is
best noted for its crown of flowers that burst into a
fragrant shower of golden-yellow blooms unexpectedly.
The glorious Angsana beholds the maxim to live life and
savour time as it passes inexorably. Reflecting this vivacious
outlook on life, Angsana Spa presents a contemporary setting
where holistic therapies draw on the natural goodness
of herbs, fruits and flowers to renew the mind, body and
spirit.

NOTES TO EDITOR : ABOUT ANGSANA SPA
Inspired by the exotic Angsana Tree noted for its crown
of golden fragrant flowers that burst into bloom unexpectedly
for just one day, Angsana Spa beholds the maxim to live
life spontaneously, to sense the moment and savour time
as it passes inexorably.
The
contemporary, holistic and non-clinical Angsana Spa was
created to enable parent company, Banyan Tree Holdings,
to diversify its business operations to other areas of
hospitality and spa operations and management. Launched
in June 2000, the young spa brand has since branched out
to 14 establishments within its three short years of development.
Four existing Angsana Spas are situated within the Angsana
resorts in Bintan, Great Barrier Reef, Maldives Ihuru
and Bangalore. Angsana Spa also manages and operates another
six establishments in Dusit Laguna, Sheraton Grande Laguna
Phuket, The Panwaburi, Laguna Beach Resort, Allamanda
Laguna Phuket and Green View Chiangmai.
This year will see Angsana Spa breaking new grounds with
its first Day Spa operation in trendy Double Bay Sydney
in Australia, which opened in February 2003 to rave reviews,
its first City Club operation in Taiwan’s Taichung
city, its first spa in the Pacific Islands of Guam and
its first highland spa in China’s Shangri-La soon.
