KAMALA GYM

KAMALA GYM in Phuket is a spacious gym with an “outdoor training” feel: an open layout, plenty of fresh air, powerful fans, and relaxing views of greenery and the mountains. It’s the kind of place you can easily stay for hours — great both for a hard workout and for a calm recovery session by the water.

The main training area is built around CrossFit-style and functional training. You’ll find free weights, dumbbells, resistance bands, calisthenics stations, jump ropes, a solid selection of kettlebells, and even some unconventional tools such as a sledgehammer. There’s also a grassy spot next to the gym that works well for stretching or yoga. Group classes run on a schedule (including Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays). The equipment is good quality and covers most needs, although some items may only be available in single units, and the ab-work options aren’t especially extensive.

One of the club’s biggest highlights is its relaxation and recovery area: a pleasantly warm pool, a sauna (including herbal and essential-oil sessions), a steam room, and a cold plunge. Showers and towels are included, and membership gives you access to all zones. The vibe is friendly and low-pressure — staff are attentive, happy to help, and quick to offer training tips, making the gym feel welcoming and familiar. For value for money, it’s one of the most convenient options in the Kamala area, with weekly passes available (around 1,200 THB, for example). As a nice extra, you can unwind by the pool and grab a bite — food can be delivered directly to the gym, and your club card gets you a discount at a local pizzeria.
