Join us in Kerala! This place is a true paradise which Virginia discovered whilst traveling in India several years ago. It is now her second home and the retreat team are dear and treasured friends. It is an absolute pleasure for us to share this place and these practices with you.

The retreat team Together we offer you the ultimate relaxing and rejuvenating authentic Ayurveda retreat experience. Virginia, Shibu and Akhilash will be working together to ensure that you have a fabulous, nurturing, healing and fun experience whilst you are with us in Kerala.

The location for our retreats is stunning and peaceful Cherai. This whole area of South India has incredible white sand beaches, beautiful tranquil backwaters and a very laid back vibe. It really is paradise! This is also the area where Ayurveda originated and therefore the most authentic experience of Ayurveda that you can receive. Our venue is a beautiful peaceful building right on the edge of the lake as well as less than minutes walk from the beach. There is a swimming pool available for guests to use (in a nearby sister venue), a purpose designed Yoga space and four Ayurveda treatment rooms. Guest rooms are bright, airy and simply luxurious.

It is important to understand that this is a retreat. Sometimes it can feel a bit intense! Stepping away from ordinary everyday life for a while can commonly cause us to notice just how exhausted we really are. We are here to support and nourish you in whatever way you need. You will have Ayurveda treatments, therapeutic Yoga, food is traditional, Ayurvedic and Keralan (delicious!). This whole experience can create feelings of tiredness. You are very welcome to rest and restore as much as you need. Day one will be just for arriving. We then have ten full days together before departing on day twelve.
