Boutique Seaside Addiction Treatment

A homely beach house-inspired addiction treatment centre nestled just 100m from the Indian Ocean, offering a safe and supportive space for hope and healing. Specialised care is available for those facing addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions.

Centrally located in the pristine coastal hamlet of St. Francis Bay, Eastern Cape, only an hour’s drive from Nelson Mandela Bay’s airport, we offer an 8-bed residential and non-residential outpatient programme. Our highly personalised continuum of care addresses the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of addiction. Off-site detoxification is available for intensive medical needs with on-site sub-acute detoxification managed by a physician and full-time nurses for initial stabilisation.

International clients can benefit from an affordable and accessible option with direct flights from the United States and Europe. Our trained interventionists assist with safe and secure travel arrangements. In-recovery assistants and clinical staff are available to meet clients at Johannesburg or Cape Town International airports, with all arrivals at Nelson Mandela Bay airport personally collected for a comfortable, supported journey to the centre.

Collaboration with families, loved ones, and international referral partners is a core part of the private addiction treatment process, ensuring continuity of care from before admission through after discharge.

Our multidisciplinary team comprises experienced, accredited professionals who deliver evidence-based addiction treatment, including CBT, DBT, trauma-informed care, and holistic wellness modalities.
