2026 guests were surprised to discover that there were no extra expenses while they were over there.

Literally everything (all treatments, herbs and additional medicines offered) is included in your ticket price! 

The food, service and healthcare are definitely 5 star, however because we're visiting somewhere offering authentic, high quality Ayurvedic medicine, the accommodation is more traditional and hovers around the 3.5-4 star mark. 

(The rooms and ensuites are huge, but they're not on par with your typical luxe Bali villa!)

The wonderful thing is that because of this, the retreat can be offered at a very reasonable price for the level of care you will receive.

The doctors are highly empathetic, medical intuitives who can offer extremely attuned insights and advice which spans across the physical, emotional and psycho-spiritual.

The gentleness and attention to detail in everything the staff offer during your stay, is a 6 star experience which is hard to convey in mere words. 

The only other thing which needs to be mentioned at the outset is that there is a new shipping port next door to the retreat and occasionally you will see ships passing by. 

So, it's an authentic experience of India we're having - not a polished one. Every part of this experience, is the real deal. 

The retreat is located 25 minutes drive from Trivandrum Airport, on the coast of Kerala. 

Return flights typically cost around $800-$1200, depending which airline you fly with. 

The weather at this time of year is beautiful, balmy and mild.

It's technically monsoon season, however because we're on the Southern tip of India, it usually only rains at night and is sunny and warm most days, with the odd daytime shower passing through quickly. 

It's humid, but not uncomfortably so.

All rooms have air-conditioning, should you require it. 

Kerala is the birthplace of Ayurveda and affectionately referred to by locals as 'God's Own Country'.

It's the prettiest state in India - and also one of the wealthiest - so it's the perfect way to dip your toe in to this ancient culture. 

We're in regional, coastal territory at the retreat - away from the noise, bustle and poverty typical of the overpopulated cities you've seen in movies like 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' (which is part of our pre-trip homework by the way)! 

Trivandrum is a very clean and exceptionally safe, medium-sized airport which isn't prone to over-crowding. 

The passage from the airport to the retreat is seamless and safe, even for inexperienced travellers, with the friendly resort drivers picking you up as you arrive (with your name on a placard). 

Many women contemplating the 2026 retreat felt the pressure of 'making the most' of their first time in India by travelling further afield, however you can rest assured that the retreat experience is fulfilling enough in its own right.

I would encourage you to keep it simple and just extend your stay a little longer for additional treatments and the opportunity to relax and explore more locally. 

Sri Lanka is only a 1 hr flight away, if you do get tempted, however.
