About the good

Webpage seem simple but there are a lot of information inside.
I like the hidden button, it makes the webpage look clean
The color mood not bad.
There are 2 languages inside ( japanese and english)
There is a similarity between the logo and the webpage ( plant)
I like the scroll bar inside the webpage

The devarana spa's site is pretty nice..the mood is there and they hav lotsa interesting visual as well...and they managed to keep the fonts readable at the same time...very well done..suitable amount of animation are used as well to live up the site...a lil smtg to improve is the logo can be bigger especially coz it has quite lotsa detail...

as for the jojoba international...i think they hav too many navigation system on the main page...good job in bringing out the CI color but didn't really make up the overall feeling....

the natural beauty spa...i thinkthe animation is abit too much....doesnt really suit the CI...the photos make it look like its a beauty center rather than spa....the solid purple outline sorta distracting....overall design is abit too typical malaysia style...

in the angsana spa s site....the layout is not ecenter'ed...the color scheme is too bright and not suitbale for a spa website....didn't make good use of the logo cause it's placed weirdly on the right top area..not too cornered and not too center...overall layout lack of interesting and relative visual that helps in building up the coorperate image and identity

Actually, I think angsana spa has a nice color scheme to it, although not as relaxing as the jojoba one.

Jojoba's rollover effect on the buttons, and the text they choose - really add onto the plain brown of the site.
I think it's a really good move.

Devarana has an interesting color scheme. I felt more as if it was an elegant site, aimed for high-class relaxation.

You mentioned that the Natural beauty spa load slow - I think this one does too.

But it really gives of an inviting feeling - the images and the whole mood.

I think this is the best site amongst the 3 competitors you mentioned.
