For my first visit to Kerala, I could not have chosen a better property! Niraamaya easily superceded some of the five star property in India. The amenities are superb, the views breathtaking and the courteous and involved staff is more than just the cherry on top. Thanking Niraamaya for making my Kerala stay memorable!

Everything was amazing from the service to the food to the rooms. We had an amazing experience. Not one thing has gone wrong, and the vibe was amazing. Please try the spa if you get the chance, for a very good massage.

Nyraamaya Retreats, Kerala backwaters is one special place. From the minute we arrived the calmness and tranquility could be felt. Warm welcome and efficient check in. Lovely villa, tastefully decorated and with a great big bathroom and very comfy bed. We booked the Ayurveda Package and boy are we glad we did. Dr.VinijaVenu is an expert in her field and helped and guided us. The Ayurvedic treatments were like nothing we’d experienced before.. they were amazing! We also enjoyed our morning Yoga sessions in such a perfect setting (loved the bird song all around us). Again these we’re expertly delivered by Arhul. The backwater boat trip organised by the hotel was fantastic and not to be missed (we did the sunset one). We haven’t been home more than a few weeks and are all ready thinking about our return Nyraamaya 🙏 Thank you to the whole Team.

When you want to experience Ayurvedic treatments and practise some yoga in a wonderful surrounding with the exellent service of a boutique resort. Then the Niraamaya Retreat in Kerala is the place to be. The Ayurvedic doctor Vinija is a very friendly experienced specialist that takes a lot of to give you tips for your health and to suggest you different treatments at the spa. And the yoga teacher Atul is the best yoga teacher we ever met. He is not forcing you into difficult asanas that you are not able to practise like many teachers do. Especially in the west. He guides you slowly through bending and stretching exercises so that you can make good progress. A body that slightly hurts everywhere is guaranteed ;-) And the is a true master when it comes to chanting. Facilities, Service and Food are always awesome. We have been at Niraamaya already for the second time and we will come back for sure.

So So glad we chose Niraamaya For our stay at Kumarakom! It was the highlight of our trip, the views from the room, the food, the staff and the Spa all made it worth every penny we spent ! Honestly, we also went to the Kumarakom lake resort next to it for dinner but came back disappointed, I don’t think we liked the food anywhere else for that matter ! Niraamaya took care of us in the best way possible ! Would definitely go back! Anju was out star!

It was an excellent vacation. Room was big, comfortable and well equipped and maintained, Food was fantastic. I used the pool a lot and loved it. Best thing about Niraamaya Kumarakom is the staff. Very friendly, attentive, polite, catered to all our needs, made excellent suggestions. We will come again.

I am so pleased that we chose to stay at Nyraamaya Retreats. My Husband and I had the most restful and mindful time.. just wish we’d booked to stay for longer as we did not want to leave!! We booked the Ayurveda Package which in our opinion was worth every penny. Special thanks to Dr.VinijaVenu, who not only took time to discuss our requirements but also those of our children. She went above and beyond to recommend and then source Ayurvedic medicines for us to take back to the UK.. very much appreciated. The therapists under her expert guidance delivered the most amazing Ayurvedic treatments, which made us feel both physically and mentally amazing! Another highlight of our stay was our early morning guided yoga sessions with Athul!! His expertise and delivery were second to none. Such a perfect way to start the day. He spent time talking with us and has shared some videos with us so we can continue to practice his yoga sessions back home.. thank you Athul. Thank you to everyone for a wonderful stay.. room, food, facilities were all spot on (although would be nice if we could enjoy a glass of wine with dinner next time!!). We’ll be back for sure!
