November 15, 2023 at 5:15 pmDuring my Yoga Teacher’s Training at Ananda, I had an incredible month. The location was stunning, the teaching exceeded my expectations, and the staff and teachers were incredibly welcoming and supportive. I enjoyed the delicious food, stunning sunsets over the sea, rejuvenating yoga sessions, relaxing massages, invigorating herbal steam baths, refreshing saltwater pool, beautiful beach, and even the ice bath! I highly recommend spending time at Ananda to recharge and rejuvenate.

November 12, 2023 at 5:15 pmI have so much love for Ananda! Last October, I completed my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training there and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and safe thanks to the amazing staff and the enchanting environment. The teachers were top-notch, helping me improve my practice, expand my knowledge of anatomy and yoga philosophy, and prepare me for leading classes of my own. They truly care about each individual’s journey and provide support even during challenging moments.
The highlight of my experience was the stunning surroundings, with a beachfront restaurant serving delicious vegetarian food and plenty of quiet spots to relax. I am incredibly grateful for my time at Ananda and plan to return soon. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a transformative yoga training experience.

October 23, 2023 at 5:14 pmWe truly had a fantastic time during our stay, and even my initially skeptical husband enjoyed it all! The morning meditation sessions were a lovely way to begin each day. I opted for the easier classes while my husband tried a couple of more challenging ones daily. It was fascinating to experience different instructors, all of whom were good, with some being exceptional.
We loved our time there so much that we decided to extend our stay by two additional days. The daily massages, included in our package, were a perfect way to unwind after a day of activities. The herbal steam room was also a delightful treat.
A huge thank you to Valerie and her incredible team for providing us with such a wonderful vacation experience.

October 12, 2023 at 5:15 pmI followed a client’s recommendation and visited Ananda for their 11-day fasting detox program, and it was truly perfect. The serene environment of the center was ideal for the process. Daily yoga, meditation, massages, and herbal steam sauna were all wonderful additions to the program, and the location was stunning. The Shell Lounge Cafe across the road was a great spot to relax before and after the program.
Noah and the staff at the detox bar were friendly, efficient, and enjoyable to be around. The owners and staff of the center were also excellent. Overall, the vibe at Ananda was amazing, and I will definitely be returning. As a naturopath, I would highly recommend Ananda to anyone looking for a fasting and detox program.
Highly recommended!

October 8, 2023 at 5:14 pmAnanda is the ideal destination to expand your yoga knowledge or start your yoga journey from the beginning. I felt completely at ease during my stay, absorbed valuable information, and had the chance to recharge. The best part was the freedom to customize your daily schedule. There were numerous yoga and meditation options to choose from. Although I didn’t partake in a yoga teacher training, I could easily see how this would be the perfect location for it! Ananda provides great value for your money. The meals at “The Shell” by the beach were excellent, and the staff was consistently attentive and caring. Each yoga instructor brought their own unique flair and expertise. The workshops offered a deeper dive into the practice. The luxurious amenities like the pool, massages, steam bath, and ice bath were a highlight. A big thank you to everyone for a fantastic week. I will definitely come back in the future and have already recommended Ananda to my friends and fellow travelers! 🙂

April 5, 2023 at 5:15 pmDuring my 200Hrs Yoga Teacher Training, I resided in Ananda for a month and it was truly a remarkable experience. The place exuded a beautiful soul that added to the overall ambiance. Ananda is without a doubt the top choice on the island in terms of quality, value, and experience for YTT.
The head teacher was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly wise, kind, and hospitable. I stayed in the Dorm room, which was just perfect for the occasion and was cleaned daily with all the necessary amenities.
The food served at Ananda was exceptional, especially the vegan and vegetarian options. The variety and flavors offered were simply delightful. Additionally, the massages provided were a true pleasure and the entire staff was genuinely kind and helpful.
I highly recommend watching the breathtaking sunsets at the Shell restaurant, participating in the morning yoga sessions, and exploring all the hidden gems of Koh Pha-ngan. My time at Ananda has left me feeling incredibly grateful and filled with gracefulness.

February 19, 2023 at 5:14 pmI cannot speak highly enough about my experience at Ananda. I spent six days there on a yoga retreat and was so impressed by the classes that I returned for more the following week. Valerie and Nigel, the owners, are wonderful people. Valerie is a skilled yoga teacher who also mentors other instructors, and the rest of the staff are equally fantastic. The sound healing session was particularly memorable. Nigel manages the shell bar where meals are served for retreat guests, as well as operating a beachfront cafe/bar/restaurant. The front desk team, especially Paula and Miriam, were incredibly friendly, and Noah and the guys at the pool bar were always ready to assist. My room, while basic, was clean and charming. Overall, it was a truly outstanding stay!
