What Our Patients Say About Us

It may save your life.

I was referred to Free by The Sea by a detox facility and I am so grateful that I was. Free by the sea gives you everything you need to start a life in recovery. The fact that I was able to see a therapist a doctor and a counselor all on property was so helpful. I really enjoyed the earned freedom that you get after moving from residential treatment to php. I was able to leave property and visit family or work, while always having a safe place to come back to with accountability and support. The staff is very friendly and the food is a huge bonus.
Being so close to the ocean and nature make for a very healing environment.
I would definitely recommend making the investment in yourself and giving yourself the opportunity to better your life by coming to Free By The Sea If you or a loved one struggles with addiction. It may save your life.

I would recommend Free by the Sea to anyone in need of SUD services

I would recommend Free by the Sea to anyone in need of SUD services. They provide three levels of treatment, so they have something for everyone. The facility has a rustic and homey vibe. The view of the ocean is beautiful and being able to walk on the beach is inspiring and freeing. Many of the staff at Free by the Sea are in recovery themselves. They meet clients where they are at and truly care about their recovery. The kitchen staff make home cooked meals with love. All in all my stay at Free by the Sea was enriching and life giving.

I had a great experience at Free By the Sea. The location is wonderful, adding to the restorative process. The counselors are caring and helpful, truly invested in my recovery. The other staff are also great. I felt they took the time to know my name from the start and always treated me with dignity and respect. The kitchen staff are so sweet and kind, taking the time to work with dietary changes. Having beach access was a life saver for me. Also, extras like yoga and sound bowls were nice. The facilities are comfortable, however, some updates are needed to the rooms, but I know it is a work in progress. Overall, I would highly recommend Free By the Sea for treatment.

I must say that this is the place for me and many addicts, as I listened to their stories about leaving and not completing their time at other recovery places. Free by the Sea is different -- maybe it is part of the isolation and being in nature. But most of all it is the counselors and awesome staff. They go above and beyond. They know your name without you wearing a nametag. Any issues they are there with open arms to help you and they truly do CARE about your recovery. I highly recommend them! From a family member - I cannot say enough good things about Free by the Sea! Our family is so grateful for the outstanding staff, the excellent food, the counselors. Even just walking in the door I could feel the warmth and caring. Free by the Sea is truly exceptional. Kudos to the people here who change lives and do this important work for individuals and families.

I'm so grateful for my time at FBTS. Their whole person approach to my recovery was so healing. From classes about the science behind addiction, relapse prevention, and family education to yoga, weekly outings and art classes. The entire staff was warm and welcoming and always treated me with respect. Even the kitchen and cleaning staff were kind and caring. Good food provided for every meal plus a great salad bar they have available. This was the best decision I could have made for myself and my family and I'm glad I chose to make it here. I looked into other places as well but only FBTS checked all the boxes. If you're looking for a treatment center to start your new life, this is it.
