Trivandrum, Kerala, India
India is the home of Ayurveda, a holistic approach to health that's been practised for thousands of years. Choose from a wide range of Ayurvedic retreats of 7, 14 or 21 nights duration and enjoy daily massage, yoga, meditation and time for yourself at a beautiful beachside or hillside retreat, with a team of specialists dedicated to providing the best Ayurvedic treatments.
There's a choice of 3 beautiful award winning Ayurvedic resorts, whether you prefer to be close to the beach or on a hillside location - all with wonderful relaxing grounds, swimming pools and a great choice of accommodation options from garden cottages to deluxe suites in a traditional style Kerala house.
Choose from a wide range of Ayurvedic retreat packages including:
You'll receive a daily treatment plan individual to you comprising a range of treatments such as massages, steam baths and oil treatments. Each day enjoy yoga and meditation sessions. There are weekly cultural programmes as well as Ayurvedic cooking lessons and talks. There's also plenty of time to relax by the pool or on the beach, to explore the grounds and relax in the beautiful tropical surroundings.
Namaste! Welcome to Kerala. Arrive Trivandrum International airport 21 kms (approximately 30 minutes from the resort) where our local representative will meet you at the airport for the short transfer drive to your selected Ayurveda resort. You’ll receive a traditional welcome on arrival and after time to check in, will have your initial consultation and check up by the team of doctors who will provide you with an individual treatment plan for the rest of your stay as well as regular review consultations and a final consultation prior to departure.
Every day you'll receive individual treatments such as massage, hot oil treatments, steam baths and others, depending on your individual treatment plan and Ayurvedic package you've booked. Most of the therapy plans will have a duration of 02-03 hours each day but please be aware the treatment duration can be varied as the doctors advise based on individual needs and body condition. You’ll be provided with a treatment schedule and individual diet/healthy eating plan. If medicines are recommended as part of your treatment plan, you’ll also be advised of these with all the Ayurvedic medicines being made on site. Each day you'll also have one yoga and meditation session, with a variety of times and levels available. In the afternoons, your time is free to relax, visit the beach for a peaceful walk or swim, enjoy the resort swimming pool and beautiful tropical grounds and gardens or perhaps curl up with a book or music or simply sit in nature and relax. After evening dinner, again your time is free to rest and relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. There are also weekly Ayurvedic cooking lessons and talks and (if staying 21 days or more) there's also the option to enjoy a complimentary half day boat tour on the beautiful Kerala backwaters.
Depending on whether you've selected a 7, 14 or 21 night retreat, on your final day, it's time for a final consultation with the doctor and then you'll be transferred back to the airport in time for your flight home/onwards.
