Elephant Pass Ayurveda And Yoga Retreat

We stayed at elephant pass 6 days. We had an amazing experience, the staff does everything that is in their hands so you don't worry about anything and just relax and enjoy. They picked us up at the airport. Drive us to the place. Had a consultation with the doctor, who sets a diet and herbs medicines for you depending of what you are looking for. All meals were based on the doctor's recommendations. We paid for a package that had all meals included, 2 treatments and 1 yoga session each day. At the end of the 6 days I felt totally energized, reconnected with my body and enthusiastic for including what I've learned in my day to day routine at home. It is a simple place that has everything you need to be comfortable, it is also very clean. There is a beautiful river, lots of shades where you can just relax and read a book. You will love the sunsets at 6pm, the sky turns into a wonderful pink color. At 6.30pm you will enjoy to see bats over the river. Birds are singing all day long. You can also see some monkeys on the road from the town to the center. If you want to do sightseeing they recommend some short trips around the area. They take care of everything related to the transport and driver. One of the getaways we did was Munnar, and we had a blast! They hired a driver for us, who did everything to please us and also gave us good advice when we were buying souvenirs and choosing where to eat. The massages were amazing and food was always surprisingly good. Yoga classes were at 6 or 7am, it was the best way to start our day. The teacher guidance was always tender, don't worry if you have never practice yoga, you will learn here. The crew is extremely kind, at the end we felt they were part of our family. If you will visit Kerala and look for a place to just let everything go and have time for self love and self care, this is your place.

Wonderful and peaceful place with a fantastic team and breathtaking surroundings, the perfect place to relax and rejuvenate! The team is so kind, friendly, attentive, helpful and professional. They know how to take care of their clients and make them feel special.

A Peaceful Place to relax , the best combinations of food that contribute to our health and the daily massage is heavenly here

A heavenly atmosphere!!! Keeps people away from stress & strain in daily life..a very special place...

The place has beautiful scenic views of periyar river and the surroundings are the best to sit back and relax. The place is bit interior, still there is proper road access to the property. Rooms are of middle category. There was an elephant training camp nearby, and the elephants are taken to the river in front of the resort. Hence the name elephant pass. But now the training center has shifted to some other place.

Good place for a getaway far from the city life. Located at the bank of the kodanadu River, the grassy lawn and bench with swing arranged at the river bank gives a relaxing feeling during evenings. Kitchen needs big time improvement coz there isn't much options than tea/coffee/lime juice.

Small rooms and food was not s great. The way towards the resort is very small and congested. The view from the rooms are marvelous

Very beautiful and serene place with a very hospitable crew at your service 24*7. They take care of you Big time. The food is simply awesome. You will get the best food made in Kerala here. All healthy stuff and home made and also organic to some extend as they get all the groceries from the local farms. If you are looking for a week or a couple weeks of relaxing time, this is the place for you. Highly recommend this place for all of their services.

A good place to unwind yourself, clean and comfortable rooms,dont expect luxury. View fabulous as the place sits on the periyar river. Healthy tasty vegetarian kerala cuisine served for meals,simple but delicious and authentic. Relax get ayurvedic treatments do yoga and laze on the hotel lawns on the river. Bobby the caretaker is an expert who churns the best combination fruit juices, but it seems the owner not spending money on facilities which are lacking, no fans in the outdoor dining. Fabulous setback views just to relax.

Very nice place for relax and take ayurvedic treatment. This place is very different from other resorts river front view and beautiful scenery in front of the room. Food was decent and economic. This place is purely vegiterian and non veg lovers totally disappointed nif you want to stay here.

1.Not that great for north India people. Saying only because of food options I got at resort. 2. It's too far away from city. So you are stuck with the meal which they provide. After 2-3 meals I got bored of same stuff. Breakfast was great. Lunch is fine. Dinner, I didn't like much. Moreover, they won't ask you what would you like to have. For one meal, they served Kerala Parotta(Refined Flour). Don't know which Ayurveda suggest Refined Flour as a healthy meal. They will prepare and you will have to eat. Doesn't seems good to me. 3. Please check for season/time you are visiting. Mostly after October, it's good. I went in June and I was the only one staying there with 3 days of non stop rain. 4. Room quality was ok ok. Bed weren't that great. I was able to feel the springs. Not worth 4k bucks. 5. This place attracts lot of foreigners. Not sure why. I personally didn't get much good vibes. Not a great experience for me. Trip typeSolo Rooms3.0 Location1.0 Service3.0

Really enjoyed my stay at Elephant Pass Retreat - excellent venue to relax and rejuvenate. Amazingly helpful and attentive staff, the doctor, yoga teacher, and massage therapists are outstanding. Highly recommended!

While the place has obvious potential we did not enjoy the level expected for the price. Wi fi and Tv not working, bad smell in the room, dirty sheets and no hot water in one of the 2 rooms we had. When we realize around 8pmall above we could not find anybody at the reception to try to fix it. Luckily it was just one night. The food was fresh and tasty and the staff very attentive As we were the only guests there. I a writting not just to warn others but in the hope the management will take note and address those problems. In short greatly overpriced for what we got As oppossed to what was described in their info.

A great place to relax.. I got the best impressions... Excellent Staffs & therapists.. Wonderful attitude towards the guests...Very tasty food....it's very quiet here...

Fantastic location, great food and wonderful staff. Got a great massage my friend was also very pleased with the treatments and the yoga. Will definitely go back
