Yunomori Onsen & Spa
Yunomori Onsen & Spa has been touted as one of the top onsen destinations in Southeast Asia. This bathing tradition originates from Japan, but you don’t have to fly all the way to the Land of the Rising Sun to experience this custom. Yunomori Japanese Onsen & Spa in Singapore also offers Thai treatments on top of the traditional Japanese Onsen therapies. Visiting an onsen is meant to be a communal experience, so expect to share facilities with others. If you’re not too comfortable with crowds, you can go during off-peak hours, such as weekday afternoons.
