Samahita

I one hundred percent recommend this place if you're looking for a wellness stay where you can come back to serenity, and find your centre. Perfect for getaways due to burn out or unexpected life changes. This is a place where you can let your nervous system completely calm down. The vibe is like going to a spa, except just staying there all week. There is yoga and other classes you can take but it's all totally optional so you can relax and do whatever you want, no pressure. The staff are so friendly and always smiling, and the food was unbeatable (and included in the price!) I came here during an extremely stressful time in my life and within days this place healed me. And the beach it is located on... it's so perfect. Not touristy. Just a quiet local beach, white sand, blue ocean, warm weather... perfection.

An unforgettable 10-day yoga retreat experience We have just completed a 10-day yoga retreat at Samahita Retreat, and it was truly an outstanding and deeply enriching experience. What made this stay so special were the people. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the entire team and especially to: Pui, Pia, Noon, Khong, Nueng, Yun, Mark, Fong, Bo, Airbus, So, Gill, Daniel, Shir, Emilia, and Kirsten. The dedication, passion, and team spirit with which this resort is run are remarkable. From the thoughtful leadership and flawless organization to the inspiring yoga and sports sessions, everything was handled with genuine care and professionalism. The team works tirelessly to keep the entire retreat immaculate, calm, and welcoming at all times. I would also like to sincerely thank all those working behind the scenes whose names I may not have captured — in housekeeping, maintenance, kitchen, and support roles. Your work, often unseen, is deeply felt every single day and is an essential part of what makes this place so special. What will stay with me long after leaving is the seemingly endless kindness, warmth, and sincerity of the Thai staff. Their friendliness is not just service-oriented — it feels truly heartfelt and authentic. Samahita Retreat is a place where body, mind, and soul can truly reset, supported by people who genuinely love what they do. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a special space. We will carry this experience with us and hope to return one day.

What an incredible treat. This is the most grounding, safe, calm, and healing place I’ve even experienced. Starting from yoga with the ocean view, continuing with incredible people and community breakfasts and dinners, finishing up with incredible sunrises. It was just too good. The food deserves a separate moment - I’ve not tried anything I did not love. The rooms are clean, new, spacious, and smell designed. I can’t wait to return.

My stay at Samahita Retreat was truly magical. From the moment I arrived, I felt deeply welcomed — the staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. The location couldn’t be better: peaceful, right by the sea, and perfect for fully switching off. The food was outstanding — super fresh, healthy, and absolutely delicious. As someone with special dietary needs, I was especially impressed: all allergens are clearly labeled, and I honestly had some of the best gluten-free meals I’ve ever eaten. The trainers and yoga teachers are excellent. The classes are well structured, fun, and varied, and there is a full daily program that keeps things inspiring without ever feeling overwhelming. For me, this was a perfect place as a solo traveler. Everyone is very open, it’s easy to connect with others, and the atmosphere feels warm and inclusive.

Lovely experience at Samahita. We went for their Christmas retreat programme. The yoga and fitness classes were thoughtfully designed and accessible for people of all ages and fitness levels, yet still engaging and effective. The Christmas retreat activities were well-curated. A mix of festive, meaningful, and a wonderful way to connect and unwind. They also had exceptional hospitality: every staff member made us feel genuinely welcome and cared for. Special thanks to Gill, Daphne, Kirsten, So, Shir, and Emilia for their warmth, professionalism, and kindness.

Thank you for another wonderful stay. This was my second visit, and once again I was very impressed with the kindness and professionalism of the staff. Housekeeping, the restaurant team and the yoga teachers all did a fantastic job, and it was clear that everyone genuinely cared about creating a good experience for the guests.

I loved Samahita. I stayed a week and would definitely return again. I had a room with shared bathroom, which was no problem at all. The facilities are very nice and the staff is great. The food is healthy, delicious, and plentiful. Very nice gym and cycle room. I give it only 4 stars for the following reasons. To me, the morning yoga was a bit light and too much the same every day. There was some variety of poses, but not much. All classes were the same style of basic Hatha and some Vinyasa. No other styles such as Yin, Power or vigorous vinyasa were offered. The evening yoga was always restorative and was super light-I only attended a few days preferring to do my own practice. Others liked it, so maybe it was just me. I recommend they provide tea, coffee and maybe juice ALL DAY not just during meal times. All other services from massages, treatments, and the espresso bar are very expensive for Thailand-closer to US resort prices. Seemed unnecessary profiteering to me. Lastly, although I understand the no alcohol policy, it sure would have been nice to have a glass of wine with the delicious dinners. But even with the above points, I recommend Samahita and may someday return.

I recently stayed at Samahita with my husband as part of our honeymoon. We did the 3 day retreat and weren't sure what to expect! I've done lots of yoga and meditation and my husband hasn't, but he was well looked after and we found that this retreat meets you where you are, at any level. The guidance from the teachers is excellent and offers a safe, encouraging space for everyone to feel welcome and practise. We loved our classes with Emilia and Kirsten, and our Muay Thai teacher too (he is lovely!) The location is gorgeous, quiet and perfect to disconnect from the hustle and bustle... you will also meet lovely people as the eating area has large tables for people to sit together, if you feel like it. The food is delicious!! We are not vegetarian and there were protein options every day (fish, chicken) as well as delicious soups, curries, and eggs, so you don't have to go totally veggie! The accommodation was well appointed, with good a/c, lots of space for storing our stuff, a good sized fridge, and a jar of lemongrass and blue pea tea! We will be back.. we are inspired and refreshed from our visit. Thank you!!
