I went to Windansea Recovery for their PHP program, and unfortunately, my experience was very different from what I was led to expect based on their website.Windansea represents itself as a luxury recovery facility. The website uses beautiful photographs and gives the impression of a clean, upscale, comfortable living environment. In my experience, what I saw when I arrived was nothing like what was represented online.The condition and cleanliness of the house were a major disappointment. I also felt very uncomfortable with the overall environment and with how the program and its residents were represented on the website.What concerned me most was the use of photographs that appeared to be from another facility. The property shown in those photographs was nothing like the facility I actually encountered.The difference was so significant that I left after approximately 30 minutes. I did not feel comfortable staying there or beginning the program.I chose Windansea based largely on how they presented themselves online. I feel that the website gave me a misleading impression of the accommodations and the overall experience.If you are considering Windansea Recovery, I strongly recommend visiting the facility in person before committing or paying for the program. Ask specifically whether the photographs on the website are actually of the property where you will be staying.I expected what was represented as a luxury recovery environment. Unfortunately, that was not my experience, and I left after only 30 minutes.

These people are complete liars. Their website is a total misrepresentation of what you’ll actually find once you get there. The picture of their housing was stolen from another treatment center called Razors Edge. They don’t take you to lunch with the staff, they take you to your house for you to make your own lunch, and their groups are right above a liquor store. I would highly recommend finding another treatment center if you’re looking for help. Liars are the worst option for someone in recovery.

Exceptional program for men. The staff really care and so does the owner. They are friendly and cool. The other clients were also very friendly. The program combines a holistic approach (Jiu-Jitsu, Yoga, working out, beach walks) along with classic groups and most importantly AA with a gravitation towards faith-based lifestyle and teaching. They helped me get my life back on track and transform my mind and life even with relapses, I can now finish my college degree with gratitude and sobriety. Thank you Windansea Recovery!

I have known the owner for over 20 years. He helped me when I was first getting into Recovery, with a place to live in one of his Sober Livings. It is truly amazing, The hard work, Determination and amazing team Wind and Sea is Second above none. They truly do care and don’t Take advantage while people are down.I now own a treatment Center, and when people are ready to transition To a PHP or IOP Level of care, we try to steer them in this direction because I know they will be safe And shown what true Recovery is! God bless Wind and sea And all of the team 💪

I was on opiates for 17 years. I tried so many times to get clean, went thru multiple recovery programs, did jail time. I could not stay clean. After my time at Windansea Recovery I have over a year clean and work in recovery and am a house manager at a sober living. Windansea Recovery gave me the tools i needed to succeed. The staff cares and were ALWAYS there when i needed them. The houses are beautiful and the center is a block from the beach in La Jolla CA. What more could one want? I would recommend ANYONE suffering from addiction to go thru Windansea Recovery. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Thank you Gino and all the staff Windansea for saving my life.

The staff genuinely cares and takes the time to really support your growth—not just to get sober, but to help you build a better, healthier life. The therapy here is next-level. You get one-on-one counseling, group therapy, and support that actually digs into the root causes of addiction and mental health struggles. It’s not just about stopping the behavior—it’s about understanding yourself, healing past wounds, and learning how to thrive.They also offer holistic options like mindfulness, fitness, and life skills coaching, which all work together to help you become the best version of yourself. The environment is calm and welcoming, and the people you meet feel like family.If you're ready for real change, Windansea is the place to make it happen.

As someone who used to go in and out of treatment centers, this program saved my life. Located in sunny La Jolla on Windansea beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in the country, this program changed my life. What an amazing crew of people, the owner is THE chillest surfer dude. A great man that has a lot of sober experience. He constantly provides opportunities for growth and is very encouraging to guys like me who have a lot to learn. On many occasions he stuck his neck out for me and personally saw to it that I was getting what I needed to set me up for a promising future in sobriety. The staff are kind, very cool, amazing people as well. Down to earth and ready to help. This recovery center is staffed with people who helped to guide me into becoming a respectable man in sobriety. Windansea Recovery has helped me to find a path that I am so excited to follow. I consider these men and women my friends, and I look forward to seeing them again soon when I get the chance to visit the wonderful place where I learned to live gratefully, joyfully and humbly.

Had the most amazing experience and Windandsea Recovery. This place really knows how to do treatment the right way. Groups are great, the activities are really fun, and the sense of community is strong. Very grateful I was able to start my recovery journey here!

From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed, respected, and truly cared for. The staff especially, they go above and beyond in every possible way. Their compassion, professionalism, and just overall vibes are truly unmatched. Felt like a genuine family for real.Each member of the team played a vital role in my recovery journey. They listened w/ ZERO judgment, created a safe space for healing, and provided personalized care that made all the difference. We laughed, we cried, and laughed even more.What stood out most was how deeply everyone genuinely cared about my progress. They were super patient with me during my hard days and celebrated every small victory with me. Their expertise combined with their kindness gave me the strength and tools I needed to begin rebuilding my life.I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am today without them. This isn’t just a rehab center — it’s a place of hope, transformation, and new beginnings. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. LOVE Y'ALL!!!! (BTW, going on 3 years of Sobriety!)

Great program, even better people! Highly recommend anyone who is looking for a positive change in their lives to consider Windandsea Recovery.

2025-06-30T19:44:54.624Z

My treatment center has been referring guys to WindanSea with Bill and Gino for about a year now. The homes in La Jolla are beautiful and they provide great treatment. Highly recommend them.

I had the chance to tour one of Windward Sea Recovery’s homes, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The space felt more like a serene beach retreat than a treatment center — ocean views, beautifully designed, and incredibly peaceful. Bill was awesome — super down-to-earth, helpful, and made the whole experience feel easy and real. Their programming is just as impressive — well-rounded, thoughtful, and clearly built to support real, lasting recovery. You can tell the team genuinely cares and puts a lot of heart into what they do. It’s a place where people can truly start fresh.

Run by the best team in the business and in the recovery community! Windandsea Recovery has helped hundreds of people by providing the foundation to rebuild their lives. Thank you for giving my best friend back to me and giving him a space to recover and continue to recover from this disease. Forever grateful.

Windansea is a beautiful new facility who is raising the standard of care. The dedication to their clients is seen in every step of the way and I could not be more grateful.
