Kalari Rasayana
Paravur, Kerala
When you think of wellness resorts in Kerala, healing, and not luxury, is perhaps the first thing that comes to mind. Not so at Kalari Rasayana, where gentle luxury and a stunning location in the heart of Paravur village in southern Kerala enfold you in a warm embrace. Surrounded by coconut groves and located by a lake, it uses its natural environment to aid your wellness. Apart from getting treatments together, you can take long walks by the lake and reconnect with nature as you build a lasting connection yourself.
Extra Like: Dotted with water bodies, the beautiful architecture of this resort includes mini islands.
The Lodge at Wah Palampur, Himachal Pradesh
Over the years, Palampur, a hamlet near Dharamshala, has managed to retain its charm because not many people travel to these parts of Himachal Pradesh. In fact, not many know that Palampur has flourishing tea gardens, something not seen in other parts of the state. Located in one such estate, The Lodge at Wah offers a world of luxury and relaxation. Here you can hide from the adrenalin-junkies of Dharamshala and enjoy a few days, taking pleasure in the small things such as rooms named after teas, local food and craft, and of course excellent tea.
Extra Like: The hotel is 100% eco-friendly; even the building is constructed from local materials. A member of the RARE community of boutique hotels.
