When you choose Ananda, you are choosing an award-winning luxury spa resort in the foothills of the Himalayas in northern India. The resort is located on a hundred-hectare Maharaja's Palace Estate, surrounded by graceful sal forests and overlooking the spiritual city of Rishikesh and the Ganges River valley. Ananda is particularly renowned for its unique combination of traditional Ayurveda, yoga, and Vedanta, combined with international wellness programs, fitness, and healthy organic cuisine to restore your inner balance and harmonize your body's energies. Here, you can expect ultimate relaxation against an iconic backdrop.
Ananda's signature all-inclusive programs can be tailored to your individual health goals. A dedicated team of experienced Ayurvedic doctors, professional therapists, yogis, and chefs is on hand to assist you. Specifically, you can work on your vitality and fitness, participate in a detox program, or focus on your mental health and spiritual balance. Other activities include Ayurvedic lectures, mantra chanting, mountain hikes, and nature walks. On a wildlife safari in Rajaji National Park, for example, you will encounter Asian forest elephants, wild boars, deer, and leopards.
At Ananda, you can expect elegant rooms and suites with private balconies, walk-in closets, and high-quality bathrooms with views of the Ganges Valley or the palace. The Garden and Ananda Suites also feature beautiful secluded private gardens with views of the valley or the palace. The Ananda Villas, on the other hand, offer the full luxury experience – completely private retreats surrounded by sal trees. Each villa is elegantly furnished and features a butler's pantry, spacious bedrooms, luxurious bathrooms, and a 40-square-meter private pool.
An ancient Indian proverb says that healing comes from both within and without. This is the motto of Ananda's distinctive restaurant, where you will be served the finest Indian, Asian, and international cuisine. Each meal is individually tailored to you based on your personal wellness program, goals, and needs. From Ayurvedic menus to detox and weight management diets to fitness programs and balancing yoga menus, the culinary offerings at Ananda are a nourishing, balancing, and healthy journey.
