Really good Spa Experience

During my stay at Ananda, I indulged in six treatments over three days that were of the highest standard. The quality of the services offered exceeded any spa I had ever visited before. The therapists were all remarkably skilled, creating an experience that was both rejuvenating and relaxing. I cannot recommend their spa highly enough!

Amazing Culinary Delights

The food at Ananda was a true highlight of my trip. The emphasis on vegetarian and Ayurvedic meals not only catered to my health goals but also tantalized my taste buds. Each meal was beautifully presented and incredibly fresh. It's rare to find such a delicious balance of flavor and health on a menu!

Fantastic Fitness Options

I loved the wide range of fitness activities offered at Ananda, from yoga classes tailored to different skill levels to a well-maintained mini-golf course. The daily yoga sessions were a wonderful way to start my mornings and the calming environment made the experience even better.

Comfortable Accommodations

The room I stayed in was a perfect sanctuary with beautiful views of the surrounding nature. My villa featured a comfortable bed and a lovely veranda that was ideal for quiet reflection or enjoying a morning coffee. The attention to detail in the room's design truly contributed to a tranquil atmosphere.
