"Take out some much needed time for yourself by escaping away from life’s distractions to enter paradise. This retreat centre yields the perfect environment for relaxation and helps provide each individual with the tools and resources needed for reducing stress and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Many services are offered here encouraging positive change such as detoxes, cleanses, and counseling.With one of the best views of the remote island Koh Phangan, it is located amidst the top of the mountains overlooking the amazingly beautiful Gulf of Thailand. Sunsets are quite the spectacle at Monte Vista, which can be viewed while relaxing as the breeze rocks you softly on the hammock of your bungalow’s porch.While overlooking the breathtaking view on the main deck’s balcony, one can join for not only yoga and meditation, but also to enjoy deliciously home cooked authentic Thai food. The staff goes above and beyond, providing a homely feel and centering their attention to each person’s individual needs."

"if like me, you are looking (and above all needing) to totally get away from the craziness and stress of your day to day life / job / love-life, want to switch of your blackberry and have some serious 'me time' with true peace and quiet that will allow you to work out what you really want and need from your life, this is 100% the place you should come. As one of my best friends pointed out to me when i was debating whether i should book this or go to one of the other higher profile traditional hotel spas in Thailand, "sometimes it takes more than a swimming pool to sort yourself out and give your head and heart a proper holiday"! I'm so glad that I listened to him, read the other trip advisor reviews, and took the plunge and booked. It might not feature in the traditional magazine awards for best spas, but in my opinion and judgeing by the experience i had, it is the ultimate detox and holiday for your mind as well as your body.
I arrived on my first day very nervous and reticient - stepping off the boat following 6 days of partying on Koh Toa, and then the infamous walk up the hilly drive (with a heavy suitcase it does feel like an eternity, so definite don't ignore the advice on here and on their website, negotiate for the taxi to take you to the top, before you even start negotiating a price or sitting in the back of the cab!). It was also the very first time i had ever been on a week long holiday on my own, and certainly the first time i had ever booked myself into a retreat that didn't just sell itself on how many swimming pools it had or how big the beds are. However, Andy checked me in, explained what my schedule would be for the week and made me feel super welcome, happy and comfortable from the start.
The morning's meditation and yoga sessions were challenging but blissful and very rewarding - and i had had very little experience of either before arriving at the Centre. The fresh fruit for breakfast - particularly whilst on the detox - was delicious, and breakfast - like the other meals of the day - gives a great opportunity to meet and chat to the other guests and volunteers at the centre. All of whom were lovely.
The spa treatments that i received as part of the detox programme, were first class too. I was helped to tackle some deep rooted habits and issues, including a serious case of insomnia that has been bothering me for years. Through a variety of different methods, I am now sleeping - for the first time in years - without sleeping tablets and with significantly less anxiety and worry generally.
I could wax lyrical for days aobut this but I'll finish by re-iterating what i said earlier, and what the majority of other reviewers have said - it truly is a very special place. Come with an open mind, an open heart and knowing that you will spend a lot of time on your own thinking and learning that you don't need to be surrounded by people and noise in order to have a good time, and you will have a holiday that will not only send you home with a healthier body but also with a healthier, happier outlook on your life and the world generally.
I definitely plan to return again in the near future - if i didn't have a job and a horse to come home to, I'd probably have stayed forever!
Thanks again Jackey and Andy and all the volunteers who worked to make the first week of my 2013 so incredible,
Katharine"

"This is exactly what you are looking for if you need not just a break from your busy everyday life, but a change from the hipster scene at some big yoga retreats. This is a retreat center that lives up to the word "retreat." I found this when I needed an escape from the non-stop busyness and crowds of another Koh Phangan yoga center. This isn't interested in being trendy or hip. Go there to slow down, to relax, to be treated as an individual, to be genuinely befriended by the warm family with love and care. The pace is so slow that it seems perfectly natural to do nothing but swing in a hammock, enjoy the mountain breeze, and watch the sea change color as the sun sets over the Gulf of Thailand. The food is beautifully fresh and simple. The yoga is taught with care and plenty of individual attention. The afternoon meditation sessions are very special, led with a spirit of serene curiosity and held on a high deck with a spectacular view of two island coves. I cannot recommend highly enough."
