About this trip

Awaken your innate sense of wonder and peace whilst immersed in the pristine nature of Koh Yao Noi. Named one of Thailand's last unspoiled paradises, Koh Yao Noi is a small idyllic island just 30 mins by speed boat from the coast of Phuket.


The intention of this retreat is to create a space for the organic awakening of your heart. For it is through the heart that we experience the sensations of awe + wonder, joy + peace. We deeply desire to share the beauty of our Thai lifestyle and offer you a taste of the magical possibilities that come alive when you take the time to slow down, move, breathe, and nourish your body, and allow the natural world to revive you.


This retreat will weave together the medicine of deep connection, the perspective of a new culture, the healing power of movement + breathwork, the nourishment of fresh, local, organic food, and the gentle opening that emerges when we allow ourselves to truly unwind. Combine all of this with the breathtaking, jaw dropping beauty of the surroundings and it is sure to be a life altering experience.


at sirena retreats, we value moving slowly, steeping in presence, and soaking in the sacredness of simplicity. there is a teaching + a gift in every moment if we open ourselves to perceive it.

Itinerary

a day in the life
sabai, sabai ~ relax, relax

We're blessed to have the sunrise directly in front of our beachside accommodation. Choose to sleep in or rise with the sun and join in on an optional sunrise tai chi session.

Then, head to our palm roofed yoga shala for a slow & juicy morning vinyasa practice followed by a mouthwatering breakfast buffet of exotic local fruits, fresh squeezed juice, and organic culinary creations.

After that enjoy your free time and relax on the beach, take your book to the pool or a hammock, stroll into the nearby village, get a massage, or book a private session. One day we'll be heading out on a boat trip around Phang Nga Bay which is one of the most breathtaking natural playgrounds in the world.

We'll reconvene in the afternoon for a melty yin practice, transformational breathwork, and journaling.

Dinner will be served beneath the sunset colored sky and then you're free to sleep early or gather together around a fire pit and engage in soulful conversations. Some nights there will be a sound bath offered after dinner.

This is the second retreat I’ve had the privilege of attending with Sirena Retreats.. Molly, and husband chef Sam are a loving, fun, fun-loving couple who took very good care of us.. we stayed in a beautiful villa in the countryside on the island of Mallorca.. We were fed incredible food, lovingly and thoughtfully prepared and presented by Sam, and his delightful father, Sergio together creating our delicious, healthy beautiful meals. Molly is a gifted and intuitive teacher. She led us through nourishing, thoughtful, sometimes challenging, yoga and meditation practices, sound baths.. We went on a hike and a private boat ride.. We visited beautiful beaches and swam and floated in the crystal clear waters of endless shades of turquoise and blue sea … I am truly grateful for this time spent with Molly, Sam and their sweet pup, Mila., Sergio and the wonderful women I got to meet.

This was my 2nd retreat with Molly. I had the pleasure of attending her 2020 Thailand retreat which was absolutely amazing. That being said I think this trip may have exceeded that. I love the fact that Molly is very well aquainted with the locations in which she's hosts these retreats. This is a key component as it gives you the experience from a locals perspective as opposed to a visiting tourist. Her yoga practice is thoughtful and intentional, spiritual and strong but suitable for all levels. You will meet people literally from all over the world of all ages. Her husband Sam who is an amazing chef, alongside his beloved father Sergio prepared all of our meals which were exceptional and beautifully created- an added bonus which was not expected! Last but not least was Mila, her sweet dog who brought lots of smiles and comfort to all❤️ I highly recommend Mollys retreats to anyone looking for the most incredible authentic experience. I'm already looking forward to another🥰

Everything about this retreat was authentic and enriching. The yoga was strenuous, thoughtful and relaxing. The food by Chef Sam, accompanied by his wonderful, sweet Dad Sergio was beyond description….the flavors and presentations were something I’ll never forget. What a beautiful team, I am forever grateful to Molly and her sharing of this most magical place in Mallorca!

My friend Lynne and I spent a week at the beauty of simplicity yoga retreat in Thailand in March. It was much more than a yoga retreat in fact and the whole experience was truly wonderful and restorative. Molly Rose taught long yoga sessions in the morning which for me not being very experienced., was a perfect combination of flow and yin. Every day had a different experience in the afternoon and we learned about the island ways. A highlight was a boat trip to the smaller local islands which are uninhabited although pictographs on the cliffs suggest they once were thousands of years ago! Our meals prepared by Molly Roses husband Sam, a chef, were amazing and we ate together on a table on the beach. There was much more and I could go on …but I personally had a unique and very positive experience and highly recommend The Beauty of Simplicity!

I am so incredibly grateful to have been a part of “The Beauty of Simplicity” women’s Thailand yoga retreat by Molly and Sam of Sirena Retreats. Daily meditation and yoga, beautifully, thoughtfully, intuitively and lovingly led by Molly. Unbelievably delicious, healthy meals and juices freshly and lovingly prepared and beautifully presented by Sam, with the freshest local ingredients. Very inexpensive daily massages by lovely local women if we wanted, (yes please!) sunrise tai chi on the beach, sound baths, Chinese medicine healers, batik with local artisans, island boat trip, sea swimming, bbq on the beach, unending fresh mango, pineapple, watermelon and coconut shakes……From the moment we arrived by speed boat to Ko Yao Noi until we left the same way a week later, Molly and Sam thought of and took care of everything. I will forever remember their kindness, their go-with-the-flow attitudes and the lovely new friends I was so privileged to spend time with..truly embodying and embracing the beauty of simplicity. Thank you. 🙏☺️❤️
