Inner Light Marbella
Inner Light Marbella
Situated 25 minutes from the popular holiday town of Marbella, Spain, Inner Light is a vibrant, peaceful farm, addiction recovery, and sober living facility, designed to be a sanctuary of healing and positive mental health as it supports clients following addiction detox and rehabilitation. The staff provide 24-hour care to clients who need it and prioritize clients’ well-being as an individual over everything else, using holistic and nature-based approaches when helping them deal with their transitions into sobriety.
Recovery at Inner Light Marbella
It is important to realize that Inner Light is not a rehabilitation center and does not provide any medical treatments or detoxes. Rather, it is an extended inpatient service for those who have just completed treatment, or who need a sober living halfway house as they attempt to re-join regular life following addiction.
Inner Light offers a wide range of therapeutic services, however, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), 12 Step Programs, yoga, Pilates, and Relapse Prevention Therapy, to name just a few, under the care of highly trained psychiatrists and psychologists.
Integrated Wellness at Inner Light Marbella
The facility focuses everything it does through a holistic lens, and the healing that comes from interaction with nature, whether this is through hiking, farming, gardening, equine therapy, or just through spending time outside in the warm Spanish sunshine.
There are also organized sessions where guests can join in watching the sunrise or the sunset on any day, which emphasizes the natural world’s ability to restart every day, and that as humans we are no different, as we are also part of nature, an idea that Inner Light very much takes to heart. The beautiful landscape, sunshine, and beaches add to the restorative impact that nature can have, both physically and aesthetically on mental health, which in turn can help with mental health improvement and stability, and physical health in turn.
Inner Light Marbella – An Exceptional Location
The farm and surrounding landscape are beautiful, with the 42 acres of farmland designed to put clients first in almost every aspect. A 25-minute drive from nearby Marbella, the Inner Light farm aims to be a slower change of pace as well as a change of scene, a peaceful environment so that guests can focus on themselves, their recovery, and sobriety.

Executive Summary of Inner Light Marbella
Inner Light Marbella Accommodations
The guest accommodation includes spacious, airy bedrooms, and the house itself is equipped with a large, rustic kitchen, 2 large swimming pools, a fire pit and stone barbeque oven, and a patio area. The lush garden stretches out into the farmland beyond, where chickens run free, eggs are harvested daily, and organic vegetables are grown. Guests receive 3 healthy meals a day cooked by professional chefs, have continual access to snacks, and access to the fridge which is restocked daily with fresh food.
Clients are not restricted throughout their stay, and it is an important message of Inner Light that guests know they are free to leave at any time, are not forced to participate in any activity that they don’t want to do, and are allowed access to their phone, laptop, and wi-fi at all times.
Inner Light Marbella Sober Living
Inner Light takes the approach that guests have to want to be there and have to want the help to get well. Most staff members have personal familiarity with addiction to some degree, and all abide by the philosophy that each person should be treated fairly and as an individual. As a result, extra personalized support is offered through Private Life Coaching, recovery coaching, and sober companions to everyone who needs them.
Inner Light also provides detailed aftercare plans and aftercare sessions to help clients as they fully return to their regular lives and build a sustainable path to continued sobriety. Practically, Inner Light offers sober living programs that can run from anywhere from 60 days to 12 months and longer, designed and priced according to a client’s needs.
Activities at Inner Light Marbella
The center also offers day trips, activities, and events as part of their programming that includes the local area and occasionally the surrounding community, including equine therapy, hiking, farming and gardening, as mentioned above, and other activities such as surfing, swimming, beach walks and dolphin and whale watching trips.
True Client Centric Compassionate Care
For longer-term guests in recovery, Inner Light even offers trips to India to study yoga and meditation at one of the best Ashrams in the world, based in Rishikesh. They even provide a transfer service to one of the many facilities that they work in partnership with if a client finds that they are not happy or that Marbella is not right for them. Staff will even travel with guests to their new facility if need be. This is truly rare and shows the compassion and empathy that is embodied at Inner Light Marbella, where clients come first, regardless of money or profit for the center.
While every individual-focused treatment facility tailor programs offered to each patient, Inner Light Marbella puts guests at the forefront of absolutely everything they do, allowing them to put themselves first and focus on getting well. Inner Light does not put any pressure on clients, merely creating the ideal conditions for them to improve and thrive in their new sobriety.
Ultimately, Inner Life Marbella is an idyllic sanctuary that allows anyone needing sober living support or who has recently left medical rehabilitation and still needs help to stay. It provides time and tranquillity for guests to focus on their mental health and inner healing safely and at their paces.
This is fully supported in Inner Light’s full commitment to nurturing through connection with nature and holistic skills and practices that their guests can take with them and apply where needed when they return home. Inner Light Marbella is the proof that once a former addict has gone through medical detox, the best way to help them adjust to a sober life and make the mental and emotional changes needed to succeed is to provide the tools and environment that they need and not put pressure, limits or restrictions on them, but give them the much-needed time to heal at the speed they can.
