People's experiences

Research checked October 20, 2026. How we read the accounts.

Limited material found in this search.

Older Holistic Sanctuary reviews describe personal care and a broader residential program in which ibogaine was one element. Some online criticism has been formally disputed on the review platform. The material does not cleanly separate Rosarito from Tulum or describe today's team, so confirm the exact site, included services and payment terms.

A broader residential experience

A 2017 self-described guest on PissedConsumer describes multiple elements of a longer stay rather than an ibogaine-only visit. That old account cannot establish the current Tulum experience.

Match the review to the site

Recovery.com's opened listing identifies Rosarito, rather than Tulum. A review associated with that listing should not be treated as firsthand evidence about the Tulum property.
