22 Day Meditation Retreat on Koh Phangan, Thailand

One Yoga runs this 22-day meditation and yoga programme on Koh Phangan as the longer of two nearly identical formats built on the same daily structure. A 15-day edition covers 14 nights from $548; this 22-day edition covers 21 nights — seven more — from $797, a $249 premium for the extra week. Both combine three yoga styles (Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin) with three meditation traditions (Vipassana, Theravada, Zen) inside the same fixed daily schedule rather than a self-directed timetable.

The property sits on Koh Phangan’s coast, with sea views from both the yoga and meditation shalas and an air-conditioned dining lounge. Accommodation can be private or shared, and the daily rhythm runs early: meditation from 6:30 AM, morning yoga from 7:30 to 9:00, a self-practice or Q&A block, a second meditation session, yoga nidra or sound healing at 12:30, a long rest break from 13:30 to 16:00, evening yoga, and a closing silent meditation session at 19:00.

Certified teachers run every session, and the all-levels billing holds up given the structured guidance through both the yoga and the less-familiar meditation traditions like Vipassana and Zen sitting practice. Watch out: meals only cover breakfast and lunch buffets on teaching days (Monday through Saturday) — dinner is excluded every day, and nothing is provided on the Sunday off, meaning roughly 40% of a week’s meals need to be arranged independently.

Beyond accommodation and the listed meals, the package includes 30 days of access to One Yoga’s online studio (900-plus classes) and WiFi. Airport transfers, the boat and ferry journey to the island, taxi transfers to the resort, and non-teaching-day meals are excluded, and cancellation is free.

Insider Tip: The 13:30-16:00 rest block runs long enough to leave the resort for a few hours without missing a session — worth using on any of the non-teaching Sundays that fall across a 22-day stay, since meals aren’t provided those days anyway.

Reaching Koh Phangan means flying into Koh Samui first, then a ferry crossing — neither leg is included in the price. The retreat runs year-round, though avoiding the peak rainy season (October to December) means steadier weather for the outdoor practice sessions. Anyone weighing the extra week against cost can compare the 15-day edition of the same programme.
