Yoga Retreat
Ayurveda Retreat
Nestled atop the majestic cliffs of Varkala, overlooking the Arabian Sea, "Prana" is a transformative retreat that seamlessly blends the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda with the holistic practice of yoga. Our sanctuary is designed for those seeking to escape the demands of modern life and reconnect with their inner selves. The name "Prana," signifying the life-force energy, embodies our core philosophy: to revitalize your body, mind, and spirit. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with a personalized consultation by our expert Ayurvedic doctor to determine your unique dosha (mind-body type). This assessment forms the foundation of your retreat, guiding your diet, therapies, and yoga practices. Each day is a carefully curated journey beginning with invigorating yoga and meditation sessions as the sun rises over the ocean. Your days are filled with therapeutic Ayurvedic treatments like Abhyanga and Shirodhara, aimed at detoxifying your body and calming your nervous system. In the evenings, you'll enjoy nourishing, dosha-balancing meals prepared with fresh, local ingredients, followed by discussions on Ayurvedic principles and philosophy. Our serene clifftop location offers the perfect backdrop for introspection and healing. You'll have ample time to relax, walk along the pristine beach, or simply watch the waves from your balcony. The retreat focuses on an intimate group setting to ensure personalized attention and a supportive community. "Prana" is more than just a getaway; it's a profound journey toward lasting health, peace, and self-awareness.

Beautiful hotel - very chilled and serene- stunning views over the lake. All the staff were lovely- especially Snera and her colleagues at front reception (adaman and another young lady whose name I don’t have) Cleaning staff were happy and smiling and did amazing laundry- thank you! Had great experience where hotel invited all the local pre school children to make Xmas cake and let them enjoy the facilities. Pool attendant worked tirelessly to kept the pool free of leaves- never ending! Food ordered off the menu was excellent- buffet was good but was pretty spicy catering for the local palette!!
