About us.

Adults-only garden wellness retreat in Rayong

Tree Roots Retreat is an adults-only garden wellness retreat that offers quiet garden rooms, on-site training with Sati Fitness, and unhurried days in nature for adults who want rest, movement, and a real stretch of the Gulf of Thailand — not a packaged resort strip.

Three rai of tropical garden in Taphong, Mueang Rayong. Mae Ram Phueng Beach is a ten-minute walk. Bangkok is about two and a half hours by road.

What Tree Roots Retreat does

Garden rooms (bed & breakfast)

Eight garden rooms on three rai. Every room has the same considered layout — king bed, white linen, warm teak, private bathroom, air conditioning, fridge, WiFi, and a mezzanine for a third adult — with sliding glass onto the garden or the pool. No internal corridor between you and outside.

Outcome A calm adults-only stay (18+) from 3,500 THB/night low season or 4,200 THB peak (VAT included), two-night minimum (three in December–January), with breakfast in the garden.

Direct-booking stay extras

Book through the website and the extras travel with the room: garden breakfast, daily sauna, arts & craft sessions, community events, free surfboard hire, free bicycle hire, pets welcome (surcharge), and early check-in / late check-out when availability allows. These extras are for direct booking guests — not pushed as OTA add-ons.

Outcome Same room, same rate, more included — plus a direct line to the team from the moment you book.

On-site training with Sati Fitness

Training on site is with Sati Fitness — BJJ, Muay Thai, yoga, weights, HIIT, flow mobility, boxercise, recovery. Stays and locals join at Sati session rates (from ฿400; live timetable on satifitness.com).

Outcome Real training next to the garden — beginners welcome; no pressure to keep up with anyone else.

What makes Tree Roots Retreat different

  1. Adults-only by design (18+) — Every guest is 18 or over. No children, no child rates. The garden stays quiet and the days stay slow; that is a policy, not a soft preference.
  2. Three rai of place-specific garden, not imported tropics — Driftwood sculptures, original art, books in every room, pool between the trees. Design defers to the land rather than competing with it. Mae Ram Phueng Beach is a ten-minute walk — a local Gulf beach, not a resort strip.
  3. Direct booking earns the extras (without OTA upsell noise) — Same published room rate; sauna, boards, bikes, arts & craft, and community events come with the direct path. We prefer website booking and LINE Official for last-minute — we do not push OTA extras.
  4. On-site training partner already in the weekly rhythm — Sati Fitness runs classes on the property. Day and night stays can join à la carte. Movement in the morning, space in the afternoon, sauna before dark — Sunday rest by design.
  5. Trust-based payment, grounded reviews — Card may be taken as guarantee at booking; room charge at check-in; no incidental pre-authorisation and no ฿2,000 card hold (FAQ and current booking policy). Guests publicly rate the place highly (4.9 stars · 114 Google reviews as published on the homepage). We do not invent guest or project counts beyond that.

Local context. Nearby Ban Phe / Mae Ramphueng stays and Koh Samet day-trip hotels often optimise for families, short beach nights, or package throughput. Tree Roots is built for adults who want garden quiet, longer stays, and training next door — not a Samet ferry queue experience.

Origin

The land was chosen for Mae Ram Phueng Beach and the feeling of walking it. Three rai of garden were built from empty land into a place that rewards a longer stay. Training on site is with Sati Fitness. Tree Roots is working toward becoming a co-living space — framed carefully, not oversold.

Frequently asked questions

Is Tree Roots Retreat adults-only?

Yes. Every guest must be 18 or older. There are no child rates and no exceptions for under-18s. The retreat is built around quiet, rest, and focused practice — we keep it that way for everyone who stays.

Why book direct instead of an OTA?

You get the same room at the same published rate, plus direct-booking inclusions (sauna, surfboard and bike hire, arts & craft, community events, and easier early/late requests when available). Prefer the website for planned stays; use LINE Official or WhatsApp for last-minute. We do not push OTA extras here.

How does payment work?

We take a card for guarantee at booking and charge the room at check-in. We also accept cash (THB), bank transfer, and QR PromptPay. There is no incidental pre-authorisation and no ฿2,000 card hold.

What are check-in and check-out times?

Check-in from 2pm (typically through early evening; later arrivals by message). Check-out by 12:00 noon. Early check-in or late check-out may be possible depending on availability — ask ahead, especially if you booked direct.

Can I bring children or a dog?

Children: no — adults only. Dogs: yes, well-behaved dogs under the pet policy (one dog per room, max 15kg, current rabies vaccination, ฿200/night). A separate refundable pet damage deposit applies at check-in per the pet policy — that is not a room incidental hold for non-pet stays.
