Boutique, eco-conscious wellness retreat
Experience serenity and seclusion on the northern coast of Kerala for your holiday to India. Nestled away in palm groves beside the Arabian Sea, Neeleshwar Hermitage is a one-of-a-kind luxury health retreat and hotel, perfect for relaxation or discovering the hidden treasures that reside in this area of India.
From unspoiled beaches, inland waterways and aromatic spice gardens, Neeleshwar Hermitage offers a wonderfully relaxing seaside experience. The thatched cottages are modelled on traditional fishermen’s huts, situated within acres of greenery, coconut groves and hibiscus flowers. Spend your time being pampered in the Ayuverdic spa, relaxing in the infinity pool or walking through the lush and picturesque gardens, and end the day with a variety of exquisite Indian, Middle-Eastern and European flavours in one of the two on-site restaurants.
Begin the day by watching the early morning dolphins from the beachside restaurant and spend the evening under a star-filled sky. If you are interested, there are yoga classes that take place throughout the day, or a 4-day transcendental meditation course to recharge your batteries and help you to rest your mind. For those who are fascinated by nature, close to Neeleshwar is the home to the Olive Ridley turtle. From September to March, this endangered and protected species hatch their eggs on the beach.
