What is Kactus about?
Community
A small yet growing community is blossoming on Koh Ta Kiev Island. Facilitators, Volunteers & Guests
all seem to blend into one.
We all respect, appreciate and take care of the space.
In return, it allows us to expand our talents, confidence, and creation so to discover something new about ourselves, and share it with the world.
All Year Round
Kactus is always open, we don't believe in "low season" - we honor the rain and the shine, both vitual to our growth.
We invite you to experience the island no matter the weather.
The day always bringing something new and unpredictable with it, something to challenge, excite, and entertain us.
Holistic Approach
We've seen so many yoga only studios, so Kactus is finding a way to incorporate the mind, body & soul into one. Living Intentionally each and every day, is the philosophy. We cannot isolate one and hope to be a better whole. Workshops and acivities are centered around the pillars:
Breathe, Move, Stillness, Clarity,
& Soul Expression.
The yoga shalla, hall, the music & art room, and various other spaces invite you to discover more.
Residencies
As people have grown closer and fonder of Kactus, the space, what it represents, they have wanted to dedicate more time & energy to it.
Treating it like a contributing honey away from home.
We invite like minded people to join us, either to host a retreat, stay for a month - a year. Also opening our arms to artist residencies & long-term facilitators.
A Secluded Island Retreat

" I've never been to a more beautiful place in my life. The people here are all so open and welcoming. The food is incredibly good. You live in harmony with nature and can truly unwind. Especially when you start your day with a meditation session and end it with a relaxing yoga session, a sauna, or an ice bath. I had an unforgettable time here. My dream is to come back and show this place to my friends."

" I stayed at Kactus in Koh Ta Kiev and honestly didn’t expect it to become one of the highlights of my trip. I originally planned to stay for just three nights, but ended up staying for two weeks.
The atmosphere is incredibly warm and family-like. The staff are kind and caring, the food is absolutely delicious, and the sunsets are beautiful every single day. It truly feels like a little slice of paradise.
One of the best parts was the daily workshops.
If you’re looking for a place with a strong sense of community, good energy, and people who genuinely care, this is the place. Highly recommend "

" Everything you could want from a deserted island... Peace and quiet, the sound of the waves, insects, lush greenery, sunshine, and a wonderful energy that pervades this beautiful place.
Excellent food, tons of activities, clean dorms, and all this with an eco-friendly approach.
Clearly the ideal place to recharge, and even more than that ;)
Thank you to the whole team, I had a fantastic time.
See you again,
Namaste 🙏🏻"
