Santhika Dream Hill Retreat Center

I’ve always wanted a spiritual Treehouse, closer to nature experience And I found it here on Dreamhill, climbing the 98 steps to fantastic yoga practices, connection with spiritual yogis on the same path finding themselves in self realization Practices.Waking up each morning to hear the roosters calling, the prayer tower singing, and the quiet nature of the rooms without the carbon emitting sound of an air conditioner and The beautiful view of Lovina, all there in interview after opening up the mosquito net and looking out the window.if you want the complete opposite experience of Canggu’s hustle and bustle and consumer attitude then this is the place for you.Playing the Leela game with a tuned in spiritual advisor, opened up so many doors to self realization that I finally was able to identify the toxic negative subconscious hindrances that have pledged me, unknowingly, causing ignorance and confusion.Guru Made Was the best yoga instructor I’ve ever had and coming from the United States of America’s Hatha a yoga experience Which is more like a gym workout, I was amazed, wow this is what Yoga really is!!!He showed us what it was like to do laughing yoga, and to release all sadness through laughter, and we went into an The ecstatic dance Tantric kundalini Dance routine that had my serotonin and oxytocin levels flying. So much better than any exogenous experience as it all came from within, and my chakras were exploding with joy and satisfaction.The food and the spa treatments were excellent, but most memorable was the bodywork done by guru Made That released painful trigger points that have been bothering me for years.I would highly recommend this experience to anybody seeking self realization and release from The status quo tourism Industry, But before warned, it takes work and effort to climb the steps to that higher plane, but it is well worth it…

It was my first retreat ever and a mind- blowing experience.Don't be misleaded by "yoga retreat" in the description - it's much more than that. I got answers to my questions that years of therapy and self-discovery couldn't help with. However, you need to be ready for such experience and be open- minded.I liked everything about the place. It felt authentic and home-like. All teachers were very professional and passionate about what they did. The activities were well-organized with flexibility if needed. For the travellers, I'd advise you to bring ear plugs, as there are sounds of nature around that might feel unusual at first.Wish the owners could keep its spirit in the years to come. Thank you all 🙏❤️

I booked a 4 days retreat and at the end I had a regret about not having a longer retreat for myself. This time at Dream Hill has been one of the greatest moments of my trip. All the staff in there are beyond kind, they are always willing to help on time. You have fruits, water, coffee, tea available for you all the time. Since the meal plan is included you can enjoy local and non local food with a great taste a variety.The facilities you have for chilling out while you don't have programed activities are well maintained, clean, and ready for you to give you a comfortable moment.They have also an spa where you can schedule some types of massages. The best massage I have had in a while. I had yoga classes and meditations with Ari and Made, both of them are kind and amazing at teaching you about how to take life easier and more enjoyable. They smile from their heart to you!I didn't stay at the Dream Hill, still they had a driver available for you to shuttle you from the retreat to the hotel at your request or even they took me to the beach when I needed it once.Highly recommended if you want to take yourself out of the noise and give a gift to your soul

The Dream Hill became like family to me after my 23 days retreat! It exceeded my hope and expectations. From the friendly pick up from the airport to every experience I had as part of the retreat - it all flowed so smoothly. The communication with the managers was clear and fast. The location and the rooms are very unique, really one of a kind. The staff are very caring and warm. The food is yummy. The yoga is high quality. The Guru simply rocks - very powerful! The programs are designed thoroughly where each piece is adding to another. The massages were very high quality. I loved that the drivers would take me anywhere I needed to go. I really loved the Nature excursions and cultural workshops. The Leela game and aroma psychology were very essential components for my mental and spiritual growth. I enjoyed the community that i had during my retreat - we learned and explored together, laughed, shared and cried and became friends for life! If you are looking for spiritual and personal transformation - Santhika Retreat is Your dream come true! 105 steps up and you are living your Dream!

The most amazing experience!! Everything is included, accommodation, food, spa treatments, day trips, yoga, meditation, spiritual awakening, self awareness workshops like aroma psychology and the Leela game. …

An amazing retreat !I spend 15 full days at Dreams Hill and have t had been the most powerful experience of my life ☀️ the program is very well conceived and it allows to relax and focus on your self growth and self healing. The facilitators are very gifted and very professionals. And they do care for you. A special thanks to Anna and Mira. The program include several workshops daily yoga and meditation classes, massages, cultural events and food. Accommodations are confortable. It has been a great experience and the best thing I could have made for myself. I strongly recommend it to anyone who is looking to heal, expand or even only increase self awareness.

Enlightening, nurturing experience in supportive environment. Yoga was challenging but there was options for everyone, staff were so supportive and in tune with the group. Lovely group of attendees from all over the world. Food staff did a great job to cater for all our prefernces and provided plenty of choice. Outings were an added bonus to the reteat. Meditation as the sun went down everyday was a delight. The single room, with own bathroom, was pretty basic, there is no aircon or mod cons but wifi etc all worked well.NB, as others have noted, there are lots of steps that are unavoidable. Its also a fairly noisy location, with vehicles, livestock, music, prayer etc from the surrounding location.But overall a restful place to "refill you cup" sitting by the pool or in the awesome yoga shala.

I did the 23 day self awareness retreat at Santhikha and it was a transformative experience. I went without a clear question, and I left with answers and clarity I didn’t know I needed. Here are some of the highlights:-The retreat center is gorgeous, with incredible ocean and mountain views, and wonderful sunrises and sunsets. The patio and pool area is so nice to relax in, and I spent most of my time in hammocks.-They have yoga every morning in an absolutely stunning platform. The teachers are really lovely, and they have a deep understanding of the anatomy of yoga. I watched them each provide individualized flexibility guidance and advice to all the retreat members.-The meditations are light and fun, but still powerful. The two teachers are also healers, so when they see need they use Reiki on the participants to help the full flow of energy. I appreciated that this wasn’t intense meditation because I wanted to relax more than work.-The staff and teachers are remarkable. I learned so much and felt so welcome the whole time.-The combination of self awareness games and card readings gave me a comprehensive view of my life path currently, and my blocks and obstacles. While it was intensive, it didn’t feel like hard work because it was embedded in such a playful, joyful environment.-This retreat (at least when I went) feels very wholesome and authentic. It doesn’t attract a large influencer crowd, and everyone who comes seemed truly dedicated to their growth path. At all points, I felt like I was doing the work within a healing community.-The spa staff are all exceptional. You will feel truly pampered.Some things you should know before booking:-There are a lot of stairs to get up to the main retreat center, so if you have serious mobility issues this retreat is probably not for you.-There are a couple of cats, and they do tend to get into the rooms. If you have an allergy, you might want to stay at the hotel.-The retreat center is quite loud in the morning from all the nearby animals. If you are a light sleeper, it may be better for you to stay in the hotel. Regardless, bring headphones.-If you read tarot, bring your decks. There are a lot of woo woo people, and we spent a lot of our nights reading together.-Remember to read everything through your heart. You will receive a lot of information from a lot of sources. Not everything will resonate as true to you, and that’s OK. In every game and workshop, there are powerful lessons to learn if you’re open to them.-There is WiFi but it’s not strong enough for video calls. If you need to join meetings, buy an eSIM. Bikago Mobile worked well for me for this.
