SIX SENSES VANA DEHRADUN

When Vana opened in 2014, it was a game changer. The whitewashed resort is a stunning minimalist reinterpretation of a maharaja's palace. Bedrooms go shoulder to shoulder with a timelessly ethereal sal forest in the Himalayan foothills.

For founder Veer Singh. Vana was born of his own spiritual journey. His sincere desire to help guests achieve real change meant there was a strict minimum seven-night stay requirement. His approach impressed a family friend, the Dalai Lama, who, for the first time, allowed a team of therapists trained at Men-Tsee-Khang, his Tibetan medical and astro institute, to work at a spa.

With the purest possible form of Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and yoga, Vana has been a success from day one.
