In January 2007, Ananda Yoga & Detox Center began to offer detox cleanses, and over the years have developed our system into a world class detox program. More than 9,000 people from around the world have experienced Ananda’s detoxification and cleansing programs, including the founder of Agama Yoga school Swami Vivekanda Saraswati, Sahajananda, and Dr. Mihaiela Pentiuc MD.
Our detox program is designed to give you the best results and benefits for your health and wellness. We only use the highest quality of cleansing products and herbs.
In Thailand, we are distributors of Colema Boards® of California as well as top quality herbal detox & nutrient supplements. Both of these products are integrated into our detox system.
We custom designed our private colema rooms for your daily personal sessions. Our staff prepares everything for the colema session and the cleaning afterward, so that you are able to focus only on the cleansing process without any other effort. Guests who have attended different detoxes on the island have informed us that our system of delivering colemas is the best on Koh Phangan.
We provide alignment yoga that helps to realign misaligned bodies. If you have a sedentary desk job, weak core, or range of motion and mobility issues, then our yoga can help you recover. Our teachers provide skillful instructions to help ensure that you are doing poses safely and correctly. We can help you progress in all facets of your practice: body, mind, and spirit.
In between nutritional supplements and juices, our program hosts a variety of activities for your schedule. Enjoy our traditional Herbal steam sauna and salt water swimming pool. The daily massage is focused on techniques to aid in the colonic detox process and the yoga classes helps throughout your purification.
Using a reverse osmosis filtration system along with ozone treatment, all of our water is filtered twice and the drinking/colonic water is tripled filtered to remove all impurities. Our dedicated staff will personally take care of your fasting and cleansing needs.
Ananda Yoga & Detox Center is located in a tranquil setting in the quiet bay of Thailand in front of one of the best sunsets in Koh Phangan. Our peaceful environment is calm, relaxing, and healing.
Vangelis, Ali, Johnny and team take wonderful care of their guests, whom they treat with gentleness and attention. The staff is attentive to all the details so that you can relax and concentrate on your own cleansing and healing process. We are at your service, available for consultation and assistance as needed.

It is cheaper to fly from Bangkok to the government airport at Surat Thani, where a couple of budget airlines are now operating from. Check out Air Asia and Nok Air.
It takes about 5 hours to get to Koh Phangan from Surat Thani Airport and costs around 500 Baht. This includes bus transfer and boat ticket.
From Koh Samui, there are multiple ferries a day. Boats leave from Bangrak pier (Seatran Discovery), Nathon (Raja) and Mae Nam pier to Thong Sala (Lomprayah). The Haad Rin Queen Ferry goes directly to Haad Rin from Big Buddha pier.

Overnight buses leave Khaosan Road in the evening about 6pm and in the next morning arrive at Surat Thani, then take a boat. Bus and boat combo tickets can be arranged by travel agencies on Khaosan Road for about 700-900 Baht all the way to Koh Phangan.
An overnight train from Bangkok has a bed, and is a comfortable way to get Koh Phangan. Trains stop early morning at Surat Thani. Then, buy a bus and boat ticket to Koh Phangan. Train tickets from Surat Thani back to Bangkok should be reserved in advance especially in high season.
Check the latest prices and schedules via the service link on the website of The State Railway of Thailand.
Once you make it to Koh Phangan, there will be taxis waiting for you at the pier. Tell a driver that you want to go to “Ananda” on Hin Kong Beach, and they’ll know where to take you. Fare will range from 150 Baht in low season to possibly 300 Baht in high season.
Most countries receive a one month visa exemption on arrival once you enter the kingdom by air. If you plan to stay longer, you can obtain a “Tourist Visa” at the Thai embassy in your home country.
It is wise to check into your visa situation through your home country’s embassy or consulate before departing, as each country may have different rules and regulations.
