We love Soma Ranch so much! We've hosted 3 yoga retreats at Soma Ranch. Joe and Helen are the absolute best hosts. They are caring, kind, good communicators and always make us feel like a part of the family. Definitely a business worth supporting. read more

Soma Ranch is a beautiful, serene place . I've enjoyed trainings here for 15 years and have seen it grow and evolve into a world-class retreat center. Love the spagathering area outside on the deck and the pool! Helen and Joe are consummate hosts. I attended a weekend Men on Nia course, a week -long white belt training, and individual classes. Helen leads dance classes, meditations and trainings while Joe cooks healthy (and tasty) meals and oversees the well - maintained grounds. Your health and spiritual well - being are nourished here. If you are looking for a special place of renewal this is it! read more

Helen and Joe are the most delightful people. Soma Ranch is absolutely gorgeous, so peaceful and serene. Unlike most of the reviews here I never got the opportunity to attend a retreat at the ranch but stayed there while working at the ren faire close by. The first time we stayed I think there was a retreat going on or at least the cabins and normal rooms were unavailable and they felt so bad about it that they let us stay in their awesome RV instead. Now that's hospitality! Subsequently we did stay in the bunk house and it was just dreamy. I highly recommend SOMA RANCH! Hurry book something now. read more

Soma Ranch Retreat is a fabulous boutique retreat. Hot tub, sauna, cold plunge, donkeys and horses for starters! The rooms are beautiful with comfortable bedding. The lap pool and outside pavilion are the perfect place to read and relax. If you attend a retreat Joe's cooking and Helen's movement classes are 5 star experiences. I love Soma all year round....Helen and Joe are the most amazing hosts and I have attended many events and retreats over the years. read more

Outstanding location and facilities for our yoga retreat!! The hospitality by both Helen and Joe made the entire experience relaxing and enjoyable! They opened their home and made us feel welcome. This was my second time to Soma Ranch and I can't wait to go back. Joe is an amazing chef!! read more

Stayed here for a wedding (this was the location that was used to house the entire bridal party). This place felt just like home. Owner left treats and made sure we had everything we needed. It's on a beautiful piece of land. There's a hot tub, sauna and pool. The owner is so kind and was generous enough to let us stay past the check out time so we could get ready for the wedding. Highly recommend!! read more

Drove over there to inquire about what all they offered, and they kicked us off the propert for petting the horse. Not sure how that works. Didn't Evan get to ask anything. Got there pet the horses upon arrival, and they came out like lunatics. Saying we were on private propert, and we're had to leave. That we were messing with there horse. No we pet your horses. Then were going to come talk to you about your property!!!!!!! Definitely don't go there. There's something wrong with them read more

In March of 2019, I attended a "Writer's Nest" retreat at the amazing Soma Ranch in Montgomery, Texas. This retreat was focused on lots of 'Q' time to allow writers to do what we do best; write! In addition to writing, the retreat included two Nia classes daily, a sunrise yoga/meditation in the spacious studio and a daily field trip to places like Sam Houston National Forest or a boat ride on Lake Conroe. This ranch is spearheaded by a couple who clearly enjoy their work. Helen is a long-time Nia instructor and trainer. I have been dancing this practice for 12 years and still benefited greatly from her gentle teaching style and vast knowledge of the discipline. Joe is chief cook and bottle washer. The meals were incredible. I have a few allergies and am a vegetarian and my needs were accommodated gracefully. The kitchen felt alive with music and the aroma of a promising meal. Running a ranch and a business is hard work. Yet Helen and Joe made the retreat seem effortless and joyful. This is an experience to be had by locals and for sojourners who crave quiet (Q) time in an amazing space. All I can say is GO!! read more

I participated in NIA training and spent a wonderful week in Soma Ranch! I felt very comfortable in the ranch thanks to the very friendly hosts. The room was very comfortable and clean. The tasty and healthy food, the sauna and hottube as well as the wonderful peace and nature have contributed to the well-being. If you are looking for rest and relaxation, I highly recommend Soma Ranch. I will definitely come back again. read more

Awesome retreat! I'm very surprised that there aren't many reviews. We came here for a weekend Spring vacation with six families and had an great time.. Fantastic place to get away from city life and unwind. Walk with the horses and feed them.. Watch the clear star filled sky at night and wake up to the chirping of birds. The retreat is very well done and maintained, very comfortable rooms and amenities, fully stocked kitchen. Would love to go back again read more

Soma Ranch is an incredible place of healing and joy. Since I started dancing Nia with Helen Terry on New Year's Eve of 2016, my hip, knee and neck injuries are healed/healing. Even if I wake up a bit "blue," I know if I go to a Nia class at Soma, my emotions will transform to joy and serenity. I've regained my arm and leg strength from 15 years ago and have lost nearly 10 pounds. In my vocabulary, Soma Ranch Retreat Center is a sacred place. I've traveled to India, Switzerland, Mexico and all over the United States to attend yoga retreats. Soma Ranch, in my opinion, is among the finest retreat centers in the world. The bedrooms are luxurious, Joe's healthy cooking superb, the studio is large, beautiful and filled with light - and the sauna, pool and hot tub are great "waker uppers" or relaxers before bed. read more

As a regular guest, Soma Ranch provides a unique, intimate getaway without pretense. Massage, infrared sauna, lap pool are a few of the relaxing offerings included in retreats and trainings. It's secluded setting provides beautiful vistas and stunning landscapes where the horses and donkeys graze peacefully and playfully on its many acres. Cozy up on a deck swing and watch the sunrise with your hot coffee and settle into the beauty and quiet of this gorgeous Texas ranch. read more
