Should I go to rehab?

If the substances you consume, or your behaviour or attitude is getting you into trouble or having a negative impact on your life, Holina Rehab may be an important option for you to consider. Not only will we provide you with the tools that you need, but we will also give you access to customized levels of treatment that will enable you to literally reinvent your life.

What addictions do you treat?

We treat the disease of addiction, which incorporates all substance dependencies, including alcohol, cocaine, crack, crystal meth, ketamine, heroin, methadone, Subutex, morphine, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, psychedelics, ecstasy, solvents, and legal (prescribed) medication addictions, as well as other process and behavior addictions such as sex, love, gaming, gambling, internet or technologies, shopping, food, exercise and co-dependency. We believe that addiction is a disease of the mind, from which we can recover, one day at a time.

Are you a residential rehab or can I just drop by?

We are a residential rehab experience, with a minimum of one month commitment. People are not permitted to come by and visit or look around unless an appointment has been made. This is to protect the privacy and the space for our residents and to keep them safe. We are not a day care facility or outpatient service. We only serve those people looking for a fully immersive experience.

How long do people stay?

Our minimum commitment is 4 weeks. Even considering that it’s possible to overcome an addiction with any long-lasting effect for any shorter period is simply unrealistic, and likely unethical. Whilst our minimum commitment is 4 weeks, many, probably most of our residents stay 6 to 8 weeks and some up to 12 weeks (the full program length).

Can my family visit me whilst I’m in treatment?

We will discourage this until after week 9. Whilst it may be nice to think that your family are supportive and want to encourage you, it’s a huge distraction from treatment for the individual, and our collective observations (in other facilities) are that in over 66% of these visits it leads to disruption, early self-discharge, and often relapse. That said, please know we’re a treatment centre driven by your success and we do know that your success is significantly improved when family members are engaged in their loved one’s recovery. So if you would like to organise either a zoom call with your family and your primary therapist, or an actual family visit on site, we would encourage this towards the end of your treatment experience.

Can I bring my laptop? Do I keep my phone?

We appreciate that you will be away from your loved ones for fairly long periods of time and that connection to them is important. Sometimes work or business calls are important to you. We will always find ways to help you facilitate these relationships. We have super-fast internet, and all the bedrooms have Smart TVs running YouTube and Netflix etc. It is our policy that in today’s modern world, our residents need to find recovery with their smart devices to hand. We are against hiding technology from our residents as it’s a useful tool to support our recovery as well as our lifestyles. Therefore, unless you specifically require a digital detox, you can use your phone, pad and laptop in your room outside of the scheduled structure and groups, meaning that you can use your devices before morning activities, after the daily groups, and even in between the scheduled program (for instance, lunchtime) should you choose to.

Yes you may. Whilst we’d love to encourage you to quit whilst youre with us, we acknowledge that many people still smoke So you may smoke on the balcony of your room, or in the dedicated smoking sala in the lounge area.

What’s the weather like?

Koh Phangan is a warm climate all year round. It is typically in the low to mid 30s*c / low 90s*f during the day, and at night it rarely goes under 23*c / mid 70s*f Sometimes it rains, usually for up to 30 minutes, which serves at cooling down the air. Occasionally it may rain for longer periods (typically in October or November), though this doesn’t interfere with treatment particularly.

Pack as if you were coming on holiday to a tropical paradise island in Thailand – which, of course you are. Summer style clothing is recommended (light shirts, T-shirts, shorts, comfortable shoes, sneakers, flip flops / sandals, etc, light, breathable clothing and swimwear for the pool and the beaches. Most of us wear underwear, shorts, T-shirts / Tank Tops / Vests, sneakers, sandals & tongs / flip flops. Active wear for workouts and other fitness activities including swimming, sports shoes, and light wear for yoga. We do physical activities almost every day, so bring a few pairs to allow for laundry times.

What should I not pack then?

Kindly do not bring the following: Alcohol or drugs: It might seem self-explanatory, but some clients may try to sneak in a last-minute hit, fix, pill, can, bottle, etc. Your bags and belongings will be searched when you arrive at Holina. Alcohol or drug paraphernalia: This includes anything that advertises or glorifies the use of alcohol or drugs. This should also include items that display support for criminal acts including terrorism, sex, gambling, or other negatively perceived notions that could upset other residents. Weapons: There is absolutely no need to bring any knives or weapons with you to Thailand or to treatment. They will be confiscated and destroyed. Toiletries that contain alcohol: Leave any alcohol-based products at home, such as certain mouthwashes, nail polish remover, perfumes, and aerosols.

Can you cater to all dietary requirements?

We have 2 main Chef’s (supported by 2 other Thai chefs) – a Meat focused one and a Vegan Chef. You can advise us of any of your specific dietary needs and we can manage them. We’re used to having people with all types of needs. Nothing unusual there.

How much does rehab cost?

Our prices are all inclusive and dependent upon the style of room you choose – shared, single occupancy or private plunge pool villa. You can view our prices here

Any other hidden costs?

We don’t have any hidden costs, though there are some costs that should be aware of. We pay for any psychiatric assessments and other mental health professional visits. We ask you to pay for anything non detox or mental health related, including your medications. We also ask that you have travel or medical insurance in place before you come to us. This is really for any non-detox or psychiatric related problems, like if you fall over and break your arm, or some other uncalculated trip to accident and emergency. We don’t pay for your flights to and from Koh Samui Airport (USM), but we do cover the cost of getting you from the airport to Holina and we will pay for your return to the airport unless you check out against clinical advice. Typically, our clients spend between US$50 and $75 per month on personal items, such as snacks, sodas, cigarettes, some toiletries, etc, but it’s not necessary to spend any more. Even gift buying on this island is relatively cheap compared to the rest of the world.

Do I need a Visa or any vaccines?

At this time, residents of most countries around the world are able to come into Thailand and achieve a visa upon entry. We will advise you on this process. It’s very straight forwards. If you extend your treatment and need a lon ger visa then we will take care of this for you, and in most instances we will pay for all your visa extensions too. Currently, there are no requirements for any vaccines to come into Thailand. This includes COVID vaccines or any other historical vaccines previously required. So please don’t worry about this, unless you specifically want to be extra vaccinated.

Inline with inflation, prices will increase on January 1, 2025. Pay in full before Dec 31st to secure the current rates.

"Holina is Wonderful! As a Rehab Center, the Staff are exceptional, all well trained, kind and give personal attention to all their clients. And Holina's facility is second to None, really the nicest rehab I've ever seen, overlooking the Sea, with two beautiful pools, excellent food and accommodation, one feels the luxury of the Koh Phangan. But most importantly is the exceptional personal treatment the clients receive . One on one counselor sessions, many group sessions throughout the day and personal guidance and help throughout the recovery journey. Holina is the Best Rehab Center in Thailand, in my opinion and Highly recommended!"

"Dear Dan, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for everything you’ve done for me over these past three months. Your guidance, support, and patience have been life-changing. I came into rehab feeling lost, but with your help, I’ve gained strength, clarity, and a renewed sense of hope for the future. You’ve not only helped me confront my addiction, but you’ve also helped me discover parts of myself I didn’t know existed. Your compassion and understanding created a space where I felt safe to heal, and I’ll forever be grateful for that. The tools and insights you’ve given me will stay with me as I continue this journey. Thank you for being such an incredible part of my recovery. I will always remember your kindness and the profound impact you’ve had on my life."

"Holina was such an incredible experience for me that opened my eyes to so many holistic wellness practices I still use today. The staff were amazing people and the location of the resort is breathtakingly beautiful. I’ve made friends for life and cleared so much emotional baggage from attending. Thanks Holina 👏"

"A brilliant place to get back in touch with oneself. My experience at Holina was a positive one, I found that the staff adapted to my needs and created a program uniquely suited to my trauma and recovery needs. The staff themselves are committed, educated and experienced. The accommodations are private and comfortable. Cell service and WIFI are top notch. Every personal need was met during my stay. My observation of Holina is that the entire team endeavours to create a warm, welcoming holistic atmosphere with a personalized touch. The general ethos of Holina differs from the normative institutional feel of a traditional western treatment centre and the frequency of one on one therapy sessions is unmatched, so the economic value far surpassed my expectations. It was exactly what I needed. Would recommend to anyone seeking therapeutic care for trauma and or substance use disorder."

"I started my recovery journey at Holina after attending other rehabs in the past and I couldn't have been happier with the level of treatment that I received. The staff are all amazing people who really cared about my needs and wants as a client. The facilities are great as is the food and the programme itself was perfect for me. The other rehabs that I attended didn't even come close to the level of care and treatment that Holina provided. Thank you so much Holina!"

"An amazing and unique treatment and rehab center. The center has a very professional treatment team. Everyone at Holina is matched with a personal program and made to feel that he is the most important to them. The center teaches and provides tools for life such as yoga, meditation and dealing with different situations in life. I recommend going to a center for addiction treatment and treatment to get back to yourself."

"By far the best rehabilitation centre I have been to. The level of care is second to none. I was very nervous attending rehab but all my fears were gone as soon as I met the team of counsellors, support staff and clients. The location is absolutely beautiful and accomodation is extremely comfortable. I had an amazing experience there and learned a lot about myself and the disease of addiction. They gave me life long tools to live a great life free from addiction. I would recommend to anyone to go there. Thank you, Holina from the bottom of my heart."

"Holina has been a life changing experience for me. I've been to 4 rehabs in my life and this has been by far the most profound experience I've had. This type of treatment simply couldn't be found in UK based rehabs. I came in on a huge amount of psychiatric and illicit meds. I was safely weaned off all the drugs I was abusing whilst having the support structure i needed around me at all times. Whilst the location is paradise, the programme itself is very structured and reasonably strict, which is exactly what I needed. Its helped me push my limits from a socially anxious man who isolated, to a (tanned!) man who looks forward to speaking and engaging in communities. I've conquered some real fears in the 11 weeks I stayed in Holina. And I got the opportunity to make some of the best friends of my life, and grow into someone I didn't think possible. Holina gave me the gift of optimism and hope for the future which is something i've never had so I'll always be grateful for that. I know I have a lot of work to do still, but Holina has given me the best possible start on my journey of sobriety."

"Holina has a very unique and professional way of working with residents. There is a multitude of different interventions that are used in working with those people who are residents. They have 2 qualified Psychologists, a number of case managers, nurse, breath work, TRE, meditation, inner walk, Muay Thai, swimming, yoga to name a few. Each person has their own case manager with an individual care plan, that in conjunction works with ensuring the right interventions for the right person."

"Dear HOLINA Staff, I hope this note finds each of you well. As I reflect on my journey, I feel a deep sense of gratitude for the support, compassion, and understanding you all extended to me during my time at the center. It was within those walls that I truly began to rediscover myself, and I couldn’t have done it without each of you. Thank you for your patience and kindness, for listening without judgment, and for guiding me through each step of this challenging process. You created an environment that felt safe and supportive, allowing me to confront my struggles and build a foundation for a healthier, brighter future. The knowledge, tools, and encouragement you provided have been invaluable. I am incredibly grateful for your commitment to helping people like me regain control and find hope. You have made a lasting impact on my life, and I will carry that forward with me, day by day. Thank you again for everything."

"Holina provided an amazing environment for me to be able to build myself back up and provide me with the tools to leave and take on life again. It's a beautiful facility with amazing views and facilities such as the restaurant, gym and a well kept private beach. All the staff work really hard to keep the place clean and well kept. The structure of the days are fantastic ensuring a morning of group sessions and opportunity for yoga or swimming before breakfast. And a focus on the AA programme and step work in the afternoon. All the support staff are really caring and take time to listen to all their clients whether it's support with the step work or suggestions for how they could improve the treatment or facilities provided. I had fantastic therapists throughout treatment, my primary therapist I was able to see twice a week to really work through personal problems and building my ability to recognise my emotions and needs and how to move forward with them. I also had access to multiple somatic therapists which was something I had never experienced before and highly recommended taking advantage of that opportunity. Holina provides the safe environment to really work on yourself and gives you so much opportunity for growth and learning especially if youre able to apply yourself and really work hard with them. I have a lot to thank Holina for, I went in really struggling to cope with addiction and life in general and I came out with strong confidence and so much knowledge."

"I had exceptional experience at Holina which gave me inner peace, presence and awareness. First I am grateful to all the people who took good care of me and helped me to learn so much. Special thanks to Ines, William, Jace, Rich, Ian, Uzi, Dan, Tanya, Nurse Tanya, Tim, Prah Olarn, Fluke, Yarden, Yoav, Franki, Derek, AK, Kwang, Phyo, Yossi and many others. Second, the facilities were excellent, they have two swimming pools, restaurant with delicious and healthy food, air conditioned gym, yoga classes and very comfortable rooms and beautiful views. Third Holina is a holistic program offering many different practices and methods. Personally I was willing to do the work and try everything I was offered and wonderful experiences happened to me. I am grateful to Holina for not only helping me "get back to myself" but also for discovering a more peaceful, calm and less impulsive side in me."

"I arrived at Holina with no idea what to expect, what was on offer, or what the place looked like. So it totally blew my mind exploring the space and finding out it had its own private beach, multiple pools, a full gym and was nestled into the jungle with beautiful bungalows speckled across the hillside. The whole place felt like a high end retreat centre rather than a recovery centre. Then when I got a copy of the schedule and saw quite how much was on offer, I knew id made the right choice in choosing Holina. Everyday was jam packed with such a diverse line up of activities and the way the schedule is laid out is perfect. A really nice balanced mix of inner work, therapy, different spiritual practices, group sessions, step work, exercise and a chunk or two a day of time to be able to relax and appreciate the environment you’re in and soak up some of that tropical sun. The days were so rich and diverse and I was always being challenged to try new things and because of this I grew so much during my time there. It really was amazing quite how much was on offer there and every facilitator was incredible at what they did and it felt like it was so much more than just a job to most of them. They genuinely cared about all the clients and it felt you were all part of a family and I made a lot of friends that I will go on to be close with for the rest of my life. I originally planned to only be there for 30 days, but decided to extend for the full three month program"

"Holina saved my friends life. He came with the intention of staying for only a couple of weeks and stayed for 2 months. His life has transformed, his outlook and attitude towards life has changed, remarkably for the better. He no longer uses drugs or drinks, has gone back to work and is once again a positive person in society, quite remarkable really! Holina's facilities are Wonderful, Beautiful and Serene, the perfect place to take account of ones life and work on oneself with the many professionally trained staff to guide the clients. I highly recommend Holina to anyone needing help on the road to recovery, it has changed my friends life and mine as well by association. Thank you Everyone at Holina!"

"What an amazing journey ,my time at Holina was a blessing . I never thought I could come out of a place with so much gratitude and a love for life . Words can’t really express the transformation of my body , mind & soul these people I have worked with the staff and community are just special humans .I’m truly grateful & thankful I found this amazing facility I owe my life to them all.'

"Holina is the most nourishing life experience that I offered myself. The great start for both the recovery from addiction, and the discovery of new ways of living by embracing the transformative meaning of life. The staff is extremely professional, supportive, careful and warm. They gave me the feeling of belonging to that open and safe inner and outer space. I found the community of people (the clients) has given me the most satisfactory healthy spiritual and social journey. There are very sensitive, smart, vulnerable and open people that are considering to start their recovery under the guidelines, principles, values, and activities at Holina. Or just come back there for an exceptional sober living period. The social environment is so trustful, offering information, action and confidence on the recovery process during. The place is idyllically situated on the beach of one of the most beautiful exotic islands. The facility offers everything one could want or expect for a high-end holistic treatment and lifestyle, from group sharing therapy and support, to sauna and ice bath, from extremely professional and adapted individual therapies, to pools and gym. I was personally impressed by the immersion in specific holistic activities, such as psychodrama, gongs concert, breath practice etc. As I left a few weeks ago, the after care program is efficient and supports clients being kept in the elevated state of being specific to Holina, for which I am so grateful!"
