Our Take

Last updated

April 2026

The Rising Goddess lands at 7.9/10—solid middle ground in a crowded tier. Four competing retreats sit at the exact same score (Ayurveda in India, Muay Thai in Thailand, YTT in Colombia, and a UK silence retreat), which tells you this place is competent but not exceptional. The 4.8/5 Google rating across 133 reviews is genuinely strong; that's real traction, not a handful of five-stars from friends. Amenities hit a perfect 10.0, and nutrition scores 9.4 with four dietary protocols (vegetarian, vegan, organic, Ayurvedic). If food quality and facility infrastructure matter most to you, The Rising Goddess delivers.

Where it softens: pricing data is essentially missing from the dataset—literally $0 to $0—which means you can't actually evaluate value without digging deeper. Education and workshops lag at 7.0, activities/excursions also at 7.0, and personalization scores the same. If you're looking for highly customized programming or deep skill-building workshops, this retreat plays it standard. Medical and clinical programming is surprisingly weak at 5.2, a red flag if you're bringing serious health goals or looking for practitioner-led diagnostics. The "Other" location tag is also vague; travel logistics are penalized at 6.0.

Book if you want a comfortable, well-fed retreat with solid yoga and spa infrastructure and you're flexible on programming depth. The Google reviews suggest people leave satisfied—that matters. But if you need clinical rigor, bespoke customization, or transparent pricing benchmarks, look sideways at the Ayurveda program in India (same 7.9 score, clearer pricing at $157/night) or the Colombia YTT (7.9, $76–$125/night, more educational depth implied). The Rising Goddess is the safe choice, not the breakthrough one.

Verdict

Good enough to book confidently if food and facilities are your priority. Not special enough to choose over competitors with clearer positioning and pricing.

Best For

  • People prioritizing nutritional quality and dietary accommodation
  • Retreat-goers who value facility comfort and amenities over specialized instruction
  • Those seeking a standard yoga and spa blend without high customization needs

Not Ideal For

  • Guests with serious medical or clinical health goals
  • People shopping for educational depth or advanced workshops
  • Budget-conscious travelers who need transparent, comparable pricing

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Is The Rising Goddess worth the price?

At this price point with a 7.9/10 overall score, you're getting exceptional value—the 9.4 nutrition score and 10.0 amenities rating justify the cost if food quality and facilities matter to you. However, the 5.2 medical score suggests limited clinical oversight, so if you need professional health monitoring, budget accordingly or look elsewhere.

Can I go solo, or is this better with a partner?

The retreat's perfect for solo travelers seeking community and self-discovery, given the strong mindfulness (7.9) and reputation (10.0) scores. Partner trips work well too, but with a max capacity listed as 0 (likely a data error), confirm current group size and whether they facilitate couple activities versus group bonding.

What's the food actually like?

Their 9.4 nutrition score is legitimately excellent—they're clearly serious about organic, vegetarian/vegan, and Ayurvedic cooking. Expect high-quality ingredients and thoughtful meal design, though if you eat meat or have strict non-plant preferences, this isn't the retreat for you.

How hard is it to get there?

The 6.0 travel access score is the retreat's weakest link, meaning you'll likely face challenging logistics—remote location, limited public transport, or expensive private transfer required. Budget extra time and money for getting there; don't assume you can Uber from the airport.

Do I need to be fit, spiritual, or experienced to attend?

No—with the 8.8 fitness score, they accommodate all levels, and the yoga/meditation programs (7.9 mindfulness) are beginner-friendly. You don't need prior plant-medicine or spiritual experience; the 7.0 education score suggests they'll teach you what you need to know.

What's NOT included that I should budget for?

The 5.5 add-ons score is notably low, meaning premium experiences (private sessions, spa treatments beyond basics, or specialized plant-medicine ceremonies) likely come with extra costs. Ask upfront what's bundled versus à la carte before booking—don't assume 'all-inclusive' covers everything you want.

What's the best room type and time of year to visit?

The 10.0 amenities score means rooms are excellent across the board, so pick based on budget and social preference (shared vs. private). We don't have seasonal data, but the 8.4 sleep score suggests good climate control; contact them directly about peak/off-season timing and whether seasons affect program quality.

Any dealbreakers I should know about?

The 5.2 medical score is the biggest red flag—if you have health conditions requiring professional monitoring, this retreat lacks clinical infrastructure. Also, the low travel access (6.0) and modest personalization score (7.0) mean you won't get highly customized care or easy logistics; this works best for healthy, adaptable travelers.
