Neeleshwar Hermitage

This hidden tropical destination, set in a secluded palm grove beside the Arabian Sea in Northern Kerala, is quietly changing the understanding of what a holiday really means. The hermitage offers its guests a utopia far removed from the pressures of everyday living, and a chance to enjoy the essence of authentic India: her friendliness, hospitality, and serenely balanced lifestyle.

Program

There will be a total of ten yoga classes, scheduled so that you will have some time off to chill by the pool, walk by the seaside, and explore this wonderful region. Classes will be suitable for people of all abilities as long as they have some yoga experience. There is also a full set of yoga equipment, so you can pack lightly!

The yoga classes will take place in two locations. The Patanjali Yoga Hall, which overlooks the beach, is built of wood and stone, and is light, spacious, and airy. It sits at the south of the site, offering fine views of the ocean while providing a settled and tranquil atmosphere lulled by the sound of the waves.

Alternatively, the Garden Yoga Terrace, which also fronts the sea, is an ideal venue for out-of-doors practice nurtured by the enlivening energy of sunrise or the calm of a spectacular sunset.

Along with five Ayurvedic consultations, many other activities will be offered as part of your holiday, so that you will go home not only feeling restored and in good heath, but you will also have had many memorable cultural experiences. You may also just choose to rest, relax, and rejuvenate. ​

Included excursions

  • Half-day guided village walk
  • Visit to see the Theyyam Ritual dance at the local temple or in the village
  • 2 hours' sunset cruise through the magical backwaters on Lotus Houseboat with tea, coffee, and snacks
