Beim Wat Po Tempel in Ban Tai, an der Strasse nach Tong Nai Pan / Than Sadet, noch in der Ebene, noch vor dem grossen Baum "the biggest Tree”. Auf der linken Seite der Strasse, unter dem Dach durchfahren und dann sieht man die kleine Anlage, die Wat Po Sauna (siehe unten).

Die Sauna wird auch rege von Thais benutzt. Ein schöner Garten (Platz) umgibt das Häuschen. Er lädt zum Verweilen ein. Sie verkaufen dort auch frische kühle Kokosnüsse und andere Getränke.

Die Sauna ist frei, es steht eine Box bereit für eine kleine Gabe für den Unterhalt und das Personal. Also bitte etwas einlegen (Papiernoten nicht Coins ;-)

Die Sauna ist Geschlechter getrennt und vor der Sauna ist frisches Wasser. Kleiner Tipp: Beim duschen geht man eine Schritt zurück um nicht die eigene Sauce (Schweiss) in den Pot zu befördern, der Folgende, weiss es zu schätzen.

Die Sauna öffnet um 14:00 h und ist offen bis 18:00

Eine sehr gemütliche und wohltuende Abwechslung, auch wenn es komisch klingen mag, eine Saune in der Sauna! Aber nach einer durchtanzten Nacht, beim "Entzug" oder einfach als Reinigung, herrlich.

Es gibt auch eine Sauna im Ananda Ressort (Yoga) in Hinkong sowie eine kleine im Shop der "Cosmic Energy Massage School" in Had Chaopao. Sicher auch noch andere. Die vermehren sich auch auf wunderbarer Weise.

Die neuste ist im GOLDEN ROCK RESORT schöner Platz und erst noch günstig

Seit dort diese Jahr ein Mönch im Temple ev. Suizid gemacht hat, wurde die Sauna ausgegliedert und auf private Iniziative weitergeführt. Neu wird jetzt ein kleiner Eintritt verlangt.

comment from the web, (somebody's personal experience):

....We then clambered into the back of a song thaew (literally meaning two-rows – which is what you get in the back of these small passenger trucks) and after a short journey we were deposited at our guest house and home for the next 24 hours.
Having done lots of research before coming to Koh Phanang, we basically threw out all our previous ideas after a 10 minute chat with Khun Nit, the hostess at our guesthouse.
This was a short trip (though next time I will spend at least three days on this fabulous island) by necessity, thanks to a very ambitious travel schedule and we were happy to follow Nit’s advice.

“If you are here for only a short time then you must go and visit the Wat Pho herbal sauna,” said Nit.
We all immediately thought this idea was brilliant though I must say we had not allowed ourselves much time to relax and enjoy Thailand’s world famous spas or natural healing facilities on this trip.
While we had allowed ourselves a foot massage (a glorious foot massage) on the boat ride over we were all agreeing that this needed to change.
So it was decided we would follow Nit’s advice and after a quick lunch we were back in the two-row taxi and on our way to Baan Tai village.
The trip took all of 10 minutes which is the advantage of being on a small island such as Kho Phangan and we were deposited in front of an amazing little temple, Wat Pho – home of the renowned herbal sauna.
Our first reaction? Wow, this place is cool. I feel like I am on a movie set. There were other visitors lounging about the garden sipping tea and looking well relaxed.
Our first order of business was to locate the saunas, two rooms (male and female) situated atop a flight of concrete steps where an antique looking metal boiler containing a mixture of water and herbs produces the luxuriant steam.
The combination of Thai herbs, such as lemongrass, jasmine and turmeric, are said to be healthy for the skin and to purge the body of toxins.

The rooms are small with low ceilings and the steam enters through piping protruding from the walls. The experience is as much unlike any Western spa experience that I wouldn’t know where to begin.
The steam is intoxicatingly fragrant and soon the sweat is pouring freely down the body. The whole environment is rustic, foreign and very much like… well, like being on a movie set.
Stepping from the steam, to what now feels like a cool breeze on a hot day, is a welcome relief. We then took turns ladling cool water from earthen urns onto our sweat drenched bodies.
After just enjoying the surroundings a little it was time to do it all over again… and so it went until we were ready to retire to the garden for a cool drink (or a hot herbal tea).
After barely more than an hour we all felt as reinvigorated as one would expect after a $200 dollar spa treatment – except our cost was just 50 baht (about $US 1.50) apiece plus a small tip to help keep this wonderful steam oasis going so that we can enjoy it again and again on subsequent trips back to beautiful Koh Phanang island.
