The Sanctuary Thailand

"Well… where to start!? This place was fantastic - in particular the staff! Everyone makes you feel so welcome; as if you’re part of the Sanctuary Family. Big shout out to Sam, Able, Waa Waa and William in the restaurant. Be sure to get a Thai massage with Jenny (the best I’ve ever had!) and a foot massage, facial and coconut oil hair treatment with George! 10/10 we’ll be back! :) Thank you thank you thank you"

"Throughout my stay at the Sanctuary Thailand, I had been praying to the venerable Buddhas of Thailand for protection, and then, at the end of my stay, I realized that the Buddhas I had been praying to and who had been protecting me are not spirits of the dead, venerated by statues of gold in the temples, but the living Sanctuary Staff smiling back at me, every step of the way! Why bow to a statue when you can bow to Living Buddhas at The Sanctuary Thailand? Why pray to the dead when you can dance with the living? Why cry when you can laugh? Come to The Sanctuary Thailand where you can bow to Living Buddhas smiling back at you every step of the way, as every member of the staff is a Living Buddha! The Buddhas are Alive and Well at The Sanctuary Thailand! Come be with Them to instantly remember Your True Self & True Happiness! Enjoy your stay in this Earthly Buddha Realm, which rivals the Heavenly Realm of the Golden Buddhas!"

"I came here for one thing only: yoga. I spent a week at The Sanctuary and found exactly what I’d hoped for: the freedom to shape my own days without programmes or group pressure. A year ago I tried a structured yoga retreat and realised that constant scheduling doesn’t suit me. Here, the emphasis on the individual is handled with real subtlety — you’re left in peace, yet gently supported. The setting is beautiful, but the atmosphere is what makes it special: unpretentious, calm, and grounded. The yoga was excellent, with experienced teachers who each bring their own style. I took the five-day yoga package, which was very good value and included several massage treatments, all genuinely skilled and restorative. The staff stood out most. Warm, personable, and informal in the best way — present without hovering. They remembered my name and my preferences, which created a sense of ease that never felt staged. The room type I had booked wasn’t available when I arrived, but the way they resolved it was thoughtful, fair, and generous. That said a lot about the ethos of the place. If you prefer to move quietly, follow your own rhythm, and feel supported without fuss or fanfare, The Sanctuary gets it right. I will most certainly come back."
