According to the article, Sober Living is less than 50% the cost of any other on the list, at “just” $25,000 for 3 months. They specialize in treating substance abuse and eating disorders.

This rehab clinic, which opened its Spanish-Mediterranean ranch-house doors in 1986, emphasizes physical fitness and the outdoors as means to treating addictions. Guests are encouraged to take part in a range of daily water-based activities — such as surfing and sailing or even hiking and volleyball — which are viewed as an integral part of the healing process. Sober Living provides gender-specific programs with separate sobriety tracks and facilities for male and female guests, including a noteworthy women-only eating-disorder facility.
