Reviews

Absolute sanctuary is excellent I go for the Pilates reformer classes and yoga , the instructors are very good, and staff and food great too .

Vicky Ballantyne

A lovely little retreat with every facility to ensure a perfect stay. Rooms lovely and spotless, food choice enormous and super healthy. Yoga and Pilates instructors excellent. Resort staff utterly fantastic. Only negatives - there is building work on an unaffiliated property close by and the noise can be intrusive. The two person rule for extra curricula activities to happen is a little frustrating.

Susan Hutton

Had the most amazing week at absolute sanctuary Koh Samui. Jam packed with fitness, yoga, pilates, massages, saunas and beach walks. Food was sensational and the staff were incredibly helpful. Good for body, heart and soul

Helen Davies

Everyone is very professional and the food is great, I loved the Pilates and yoga the instructors are brilliant

Vicky Ballantyne

My third trip to absolute sanctuary on the Pilates boot camp program staff and trainers are all absolutely brilliant and I can’t wait to go back for a fourth time.

Vicky Ballantyne

I spent 7 days at Absolute Sanctuary doing their 7 days sleep programme. I slept 11 and 10 hours respectively the first two days, excl. various naps so that was instant gratification -) The place is lovely, very chilled and everyone is so friendly and will do their outmost to make you enjoy your stay. Mind you the programme is very busy. I had between 5 and 8 different treatments / sessions every day. I have never had so many massages. What I loved the most was the personal approach. Everyone would know my name, my preferences and small quirks and treatments were adjusted after consultation with their consultants. The food is super healthy and very tasty and I had loads of fresh juices every day. My favourite moment of the day was the morning meditation and yoga . What a fab way to start the day. I had an amazing stay, it was a great way to re-energise, learn from new habits and re-set the system again. I will definitely be back

This is my second time here and I can say that it was actually better experience than the first it is a top rated resort with helpful friendly professional staff

Vicky Ballantyne

Food is amazing and the pilates teachers were brilliant.

Karen Holtge

Comparable to other companies

Jennifer Pover

Whilst the treatments, food and staff tearm were exceptional, the accommodation is really very poor and need of updating, I understand the 'Moroccan sparse' style but you need basics like reliable warm running water and good lighting and plugs near your bed.

Rosalind Barker

Loved this resort, beautiful spot, lovely staff as a fantastic timetable of classes etc

Wonderful resort. Professional. Excellent facilities. Amazing cuisine.

Karen Sutherland

Staff super friendly remembered your name & used it too!

Claire Kelly

Everything exceeded my expectations, staff were flexible, treatments were great and food was delicious

Saba Gondal

Absolute is clean but a little soulless. A small complex, the yoga choice was extensive, Pilates less so ( only 6 Reformers for the whole hotel). The Spa treatments are excellent as are the therapists. The other options, namely fitness instructor ( male) just couldn't be bothered. No extensive other sessions - towel folding ( really ?). The principle complaint from virtually every guest there was that they were very 'money grabbing' - absolutely everything had to be signed for, bills were incorrect and took time to resolve, extras not that well explained. A 'Good ' rating - as value for money, when booked via Wellbeing escapes, was well worth it.

Anonymous

The staff were all very helpful and a pleasure to deal with. I have nothing else but praise for the whole operation. Food was wonderful. I was on the weight loss program, and had a lot of treatments and exercise included. I was also able to add more from the additional program, which were provided free. Wonderful. I loved it and would love to go back.....as soon as possible!

Frances Birkestein

Fabulous place but very badly organised

Anonymous

Great staff, excellent spa with highly trained people and very professional yoga pilates fitness instructors. Food good though a bit boring if you are staying over a week as there are no specials. But all healthy and fresh:)

Agnieszka

Superb resort, will be back.
