FROM THEIR WEB SITE:
""Sree Sankara Gardens" is set in the scenic environs of Kumily, the "spice garden" of India. Nestling on a hill lush with vegetation at an altitude of 1200 mts., this is a bird watchers' paradise. The design of the edifice is the traditional Kerala style. It consists of 10 spacious en suite apartments, each with individual treatment room and private sit-out. This secluded retreat also houses a yoga hall, a performing arts centre and an exclusive kitchen serving traditional Ayurvedic vegetarian cuisine.
Modern amenities such as telephone and internet are made available sparingly but sensibly so as not to disturb the tranquility of therapeutic experience. In spite of the large expanse of the campus only small groups are taken at a time in order to maintain a homely and personalized atmosphere. The calm and tranquil setting, the cool climate, the invigorating fresh air and the insulation from all distractions, is the ideal environment for inspiration and healthy rejuvenation.
The holistic experience is aided by physical and mental exercises designed to sharpen the concentration, invite introspection, foster peace of mind and improve health."
