Missing Japan and the chill vibes from travelling? Head over to any of the 10 Best Onsen in Singapore that will be discussed in today’s article to relive your moments in Japan!

Not sure about you guys but my Onsen experience was the highlight of my Japan trip although it was slightly awkward for me at the start (Mine required me to be naked in front of my female relatives). Despite that, it was a one-of-the-kind experience that I would recommend everyone to try at least once in their life!

What is Onsen? Can Eat?

In Japan, onsens are the country’s hot springs and the bathing facilities and traditional inns around them. As a volcanically active country, Japan has many onsens scattered throughout all of its major islands. Onsens come in many types and shapes, including outdoor and indoor baths.

Due to Japan’s unique landscape, onsens are common. Thus, most tourists can enjoy it while travelling in Japan, regardless of the season. What if I tell you that Singapore has onsens too? Read on to find out!

Elements Wellness performed their first massage more than a decade ago and have done more than a million massages since. It started with a bunch of regular folks craving “shiok” massages. The most legit one was an Olympic swimmer, who had a “real” reason to relieve muscle tension and heal injuries as he was bearing the weight of a gold medal on his shoulders. Good massages were few and far between back then, thus they studied the intricacies of good therapy, built unique protocols into their training of passionate people, and burdened themselves for the national good of providing superb massages.

With the mission to provide the best treatments for wellness and beauty, customers flowed through the doors and some have not left since. Their services are all thoughtfully designed as they first think of what the customer can benefit from, then go about creating the services and hunting down the best products and technologies to support the vision. With such an amazing team, it is no surprise that they’ve gathered a strong customer base.

Sembawang Hot Spring Park is a natural hot spring and a public park in Singapore. It is located beside a military camp about 100m off the main road, Gambas Avenue. It features new cascading pools and a water collection point, enhanced accessibility for wheelchair users, and educational panels where visitors can learn about Singapore’s only hot spring park’s history and geology. The park’s rustic environment, reminiscent of old kampungs, also holds many collective memories for the community. 

Visitors can enjoy the new Floral Walk and see fruit trees and edible plants commonly found in kampungs, and flowers commonly seen in the 1960s and 1990s. The rustic environment is further enhanced by unpaved paths and naturalised streams flowing from the hot spring, which mimics the freshwater swamp forest landscape. There are seating areas sheltered by planted trellises featuring flowering creepers such as the Elephant Climber (Argyreia Nervosa). The public can also learn more about the history of the site and the geothermal processes behind the formation of a hot spring through interpretative signs at locations of interest.

This hot spring happened to be located near my house and I’ve gone there plenty of times with my family before its renovation. Then, it was rather run-down, with a few buckets here and there, and people would bring the water with those buckets (some of us will bring our own) to a sheltered corner and spend some peaceful time with their loved ones. It has since been refurbished to a place with many new features and trust me, it’s definitely worth dropping by!

“If u wanna run out from work / stress… This is the best place to make urself relax! Before leaving this place, we already start to plan our next trip to Spa 1 wellness! We will see you soon, again!”

– Review from Skyler Tan

Conveniently located a stone’s throw away from Paya Lebar MRT, Spa-1 Wellness Centre is a crowd favourite.

With over 12 services available, Spa-1 Wellness Centre definitely has something for everyone. To mimic authentic Japanese Onsen, they offer separate facilities for both genders, which is what makes the onsen experience a unique one.
