Untouched natural beauty The Kairali Ayurvedic Group's signature resort is just a few kilometres from the world's biggest mountain pass between Kerala and Tamil Nadu in Palakkad at the foot of the Western Ghats, a dreamy land of misty mountains with evergreen tropical forests, dams, wildlife sanctuaries, rivers, rare birds, historical monuments and temples. Palakkad is fast becoming a favourite, and is likely to become known as one of the best tourist destinations in India. The district is gifted with the beauty of the untouched Nelliyampathy Hills, the Silent Valley National Park, the famous Parambikulam Wildlife Sanctuary, the Attappady Hills and many spectacular dams, such as Malampuzha, Mangalam, Kanjirapuzha, Siruvani and Parambikulam. This tranquil location combines the comfort of a luxury holiday with a focus on total health. The village's 30 exclusive villas conform to Vatsu Shastra (the Indian version of Feng Shui), each with a distinctive design that blends seamlessly with the surrounding vegetation. The herbs and trees that have immense curative and restorative powers give the villas a 'back to nature' feel. Villas are available in Deluxe, Classic, Royal and Maharaja categories, each equipped with air-conditioning, telephone, bath and shower. Accommodation is also allocated on the basis of guests' birth stars. The herbs and trees surrounding each villa are strategically planted according to different constellations, so even the fragrant herb-laden breeze is curative. The resort also offers an invigorating pollution-free environment where delicious vegetarian food and abstinence from alcohol and smoking is most vigorously encouraged. Restore vigour and vitality Guests can enjoy the healing touch of a range of Ayurvedic health and fitness programs, including courses for weight loss, arthritis and spondylitis, sinusitis and migraine, post pregnancy health, rejuvenation therapy to restore vigour and vitality and remove stress and strain as well as beauty and eye care. Guests are also invited to get a glimpse of their future by visiting the resident astrologer and palmist. Any amount of time spent at this jungle paradise allows guests to experience the authentic healing practices of ancient India, while relaxing in the lap of modern holistic luxury.
