At Vishuddhi Alaya, well-being is woven through daily life—from the experiences we offer to the food we prepare. Days here unfold slowly and mindfully, with opportunities to connect with both nature and self.
Guests can enjoy guided hikes through quiet villages and forested paths, or take part in seasonal organic gardening activities.
A traditional spa experience—including a sauna and a Japanese-style ofuro bath—invites deep relaxation, while Ayurvedic massages and facials offer gentle, therapeutic care for body and mind.
Rooms and Facilities
O
ur accommodations include eight thoughtfully designed rooms and two additional more spacious units. Comfortable and modern, yet intentionally simple, the rooms reflect the retreat’s spirit—quiet simplicity that encourages rest and reflection. Each space opens gently to the natural surroundings.
A glass-covered yoga and seminar hall—fully equipped for movement, reflection, or learning—serves as the heart of group activity.
Meals
Meals are lovingly prepared using fresh, mostly organic ingredients from our garden and nearby farms. All meals are vegetarian and we follow a farm-to-table philosophy and avoid processed and frozen foods entirely. Everything from bread and cakes to pasta is made in-house.
We are happy to accommodate dietary preferences, including gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan choices. In keeping with our values of simplicity and balance, we do not serve alcoholic beverages at the retreat.
On request, guests may also join in group cooking sessions that celebrate local flavors and traditions.
The retreat place
is constructed using modern rammed earth technology and latest green technology in water conservation and usage.Sustainable building practices, water saving and conservation techniques and organic farming promote our goal of sustainable living and blend in the philosophy of Vishuddhi Alaya, bringing together thoughtful techniques with respect for nature and its beauty.
