Tree Roots Retreat is a peaceful spot just a short walk from the beach. Our room was spacious, quiet, and had a lovely view of the pool and garden. Carol and Denis, who manage the retreat, were incredibly welcoming and gave us great tips on what to do in the area. The staff were always friendly and helpful, which made our stay even better. There’s so much to explore nearby, beautiful beaches, great restaurants and bars, local markets, and even Ko Samet island. We especially loved Kai Seafood, a restaurant on the beach just a few minutes away by walk. The retreat has everything you need to relax, like a pool, billiards, and ping pong. Renting a motorbike is a great way to explore the area. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend! Thank you for everything! ❤️ Lots of love !

The Perfect Place for Peace and Harmony If you are looking for privacy, tranquility, and a connection with nature, this is the perfect place for you. You will stay in your own private bungalow, where you can completely relax and feel at home. The people who work here are incredibly kind and attentive! Since it was my first visit, they took such great care of me, like I was part of their family. They created a WhatsApp group to stay connected, took me to the best spots for fresh seafood and fruits, organized a massage, and provided everything I needed, from dishes to adapters. One of the most memorable moments was paddleboarding at sunset – it was absolutely magical. I am deeply grateful to Carol and Dennis for their warm hospitality. They truly know how to create lasting, heartfelt memories of the people and the country. If you want a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, with kind hosts and unforgettable experiences, this is the place to be!

Tree Roots Retreat is a gem for people looking for a weekend getaway to unplug. It is tucked into a field but still walkable to the beach, and my what a sight the sea was these past few days! The whole place has a distinct character with mix-and-match decor & furnitures, but they all come together quite well and the overall ambience is one of coziness. To me it feels like the summer version of curling up by the fireplace with a hot cocoa when it's snowing. The rooms are spacious with a huge bed, it is so comfy I could literally sink into it and disappear for a week! Each room also has a private "loft" which doubles as a reading nook. Don't fret if you forgot reading materials, they have a library there too! What makes the place standout the most though, isn't all of the above I've mentioned, but rather the hospitality and sincerity the retreat hosts - Carol & Dennis - show to each of their guests. What a wonderful pair! Highly recommend this place, and will most definitely be back!

“We stayed at the Tree Roots Retreat during the first week of September 2024. It is only a few hundred meters from the beach. We found the place was quiet and peaceful. The Retreat is a pet friendly resort; we took our doggy friend with us. The room we stayed was neat, well equipped with artistic decoration; the air condition was in excellent shape. The Retreat’s area has been well arranged with a small pool, a boxing gym (with a coach), a sauna, etc. The place has a sister cafeteria called The Stay Café by the beach, where we had our breakfast. I had full English breakfast, and my wife also tried a beef burger, and sandwiches. All were wonderful. The management team of the Tree Roots Retreat is friendly and very helpful. We love this place, and wish to come back every year till our doggy friend could not stand a long-distance travelling. – Sarawut Sujitjorn, Korat, Thailand”

Everything was just wonderful. For a solo traveler, I couldn't be in a better place. I recharged, relaxed, and was ready for my next trip. The people - Aaron, the host, his staff, the guests - they were all absolutely charming and helpful. The area was so beautiful and curious, I spent hours just enjoying the territory and things around. There you u can be active (martial arts, paddle board, proper gym), and you can be intellectually lazy (a sea of books and loads of comfy corners to enjoy reading). There you just relax and find peace in yourself. Ah! And endless beach with absolutely gorgeous water and tasty food hurs along the shore.))

The perfect place to relax, recover, recharge. So beautiful and peaceful. And so many things to see and discover on the property, or just do nothing floating in the pool or lounging somewhere in the shade. Aaron, the owner has lots of insider info about where to eat or what to see and he can help getting to and from the place. The most beautiful, endless beach is only 500m away. I would visit anytime again!

No complaints

Such a lovely welcome by the hosts, so helpful with every request. Very large room with A/C, great roomy bathroom. Little private balcony area with chairs overlooking the pool. Pool table available in the breakfast area.

Definitely need transport as it's a little bit away from everything

The location is great. By motorbike, you will see the sea and 711 in 3 min. The bed is great itself (not too soft and not too hard).

The pool is too short that I can’t really swim and at night there will be wide insects around so I can’t get into the pool as well.

We loved the room and hotel area😊 The owner is also the nicest man, and he was very helpful with everything! The beach is close and there are great seafood restaurants everywhere. The pool has amazing nature views❤️ we are definedly returning here next time we come to Thailand

You get what you book, meaning a retreat. If you want to relax, have a quiet environment, read, just do nothing and find yourself this is the perfect place to be.
