Singapore’s First-Ever Yuzu Bath at Yunomori Onsen & Spa…Why you must visit it!

By the way, please note that Singapore’s first-ever yuzu bath, will only be available for a limited time till 31 December 2016! So after reading this post, you quickly book your appointment too. ♥

Onsen is Japanese Bath. Mind you, it’s not just a bath but it’s a ritual, it’s a tradition. You are expected to do things in a certain way when it comes to Onsen.

As far as Yuzu Bath is concerned, it all started in early 18th century in Japan where soaking in yuzu bath is practiced by the Japanese on the winter solstice day. The yuzu bath is believed to help to ward off winter colds and the common flu.

101 of Onsen for those who haven’t tried it yet:

  1. You have to take a thorough wash before entering Onsen.
  2. You are supposed to be completely in your birthday suit when you enter Onsen!! Though in Yunomori thankfully they provide disposable clothing and you can enter Onsen without feeling shy.
  3. Carry towel along with you but NOT to take it in water. No washing towel in the bath. Place it on the head as per traditional onsen.
  4. Safety first! Ensure that you are careful while going in and out of Onsen. It can be slippery.
  5. There are separate onsens for ladies and gents. Kids can go too!

Why I tried Yuzu bath and what I liked the most? and…Why you should also experince it? ♥

  • The first look of Yunomori Onsen and SPA is very soothing. Neat, Clean and Calming.
  • I have not visited Japan but am always curious about it. So Onsen was one thing I wanted to try out for quite some time.
  • Yuzu! Refreshing, energizing and perfect flavor / fragrance to perk up busy and tired moms like me. So when I got to know that the food will be Yuzu-based too, then of course, BIG yes!
    The Udon, the sorbet, the soda drink was all very yumfreshing. After work, visit this place and instantly get relaxed.

  • The Onsen itself is quite a liberating experience. I met a few new lady friends and we all were quite excited to wear Yukata and try Onsen.

  • Yunomori has exciting choices of Onsen – Be it Bubble bath, Soda bath, Steam, Jet…All the baths offer various degrees of temperatures. The moment you enter warm warm water, your sore body says “THANK YOU” instantly to you. Then it starts feeling lighter and better with every dip that you take. Yuzu bath is great to alleviate body aches and back pains as well as improve blood circulation.

    If you feel a bit too hot then enjoy icy cool bath. Hot n Cold, Cold n Hot – it’s absolutely fun. Later burn some calories in Sauna. Yunomori offers LARGEST variety of pools.

    The whole setup looks royal and you feel like the queen! Sure, guaranteed.

The Yuzu bath itself is a treat! Yuzu is specially imported and it’s great to cleanse the skin and it will become smoother, more radiant and moisturized. Containing citrus acids and vitamin C thanks to the fruit, the bath will help to heal chapped skin as well. The oil from the yuzu stimulates the circulatory and digestive systems.

  • If you want a full day of pampering, this is the BEST place. You eat healthy food in Yunomori Cafe, enjoy Onsen, get a nice massage or other SPA treatment done and again enter Onsen…heavenly!For a good 30 minutes to 90 minutes massage treatment, guests just have to pay an additional fee from S$30+ to S$118+.

  • You can go as a family too. Your guy can relax in Male Onsen and your kiddos can accompany you. You all eat together and later do some shopping in Kallang Wave Mall. Perfect!
  • The onsen provides everything, from locker facilities to yukata, towel, use of luxury brand Puri Alchemy’s toiletries and other lifestyle amenities.
