Patie Jansen
Visiting India for the first time has been an amazing experience thanks to the Shathayu Retreat. It is the prefect place to get on the track of a healthy life style.
Special thanks to my therapists: Sreejith, Sinoj and Deepu, Doctor Arun as well as Ravi and Raju serving at the dinning room and the most kind yoga teacher ever Ananya. Can’t wait to go back!
Alberto Lopez
This is the first time I ever went to a retreat & I found it exceptionally relaxing. The food was delicious and the treatments were great- very different from what I experienced in the states. They upgraded my room at no charge- yoga was a highlight.
Sara Willovit
I had a very positive rejuvenating experience at Shathayu Ayurvedic Retreat Center. Dr Arun and all the medical staff were professional, knowledgeable and caring. My therapist Asif was a skilled practitioner who provided excellent treatments and modified his work based on my specific needs. I would highly recommend Asif as a therapist and definitely try Shathayu if you’re looking for rest and rejuvenating therapies (and great food served by friendly staff!)

Came for a weekend stay. Checked in early afternoon on Friday, check out Sunday at 11:00.
Daily yoga, massage and meditation gave me good chance to rewind from the daily stress, ready to go back to the real world.
Enjoyed the food very much as it was not spicy like the food I get else where. Recommend to take a book or two and sit outside.

I joined the one-day programme at this yoga centre and had a very positive experience. The morning schedule was quite full, while the afternoon felt a bit lighter, so the programme was slightly unbalanced. We had to leave after lunch since it was our last day in India, but even just the morning sessions were more than worth it. One unexpected highlight was the food. Everything was delicious, especially the mushroom nut curry... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a special visa for Ayurveda treatment in India, or is a regular tourist visa enough?
A regular Indian tourist visa is generally sufficient for wellness/Ayurveda stays; specific treatment visas may apply depending on the medical nature of the program.
Are the treatments led by qualified, registered Ayurvedic doctors, and can I consult online with one before I book?
Treatments are supervised by qualified Ayurvedic doctors. Online doctor consultation can be arranged before booking.
How long does a program need to be to see real results, and is a shorter option available if I can't take 2–3 weeks off?
Programs are customized. Longer stays allow deeper Panchakarma treatments, but 7 to 14 day and shorter programs can be designed for international guests.
What exactly is included in the price, and what isn't (flights, airport transfers, extra therapies, doctor consultations)?
Package inclusions are clearly outlined before booking — typically accommodation, meals, doctor consultations and prescribed therapies. Flights and personal expenses are generally additional.
Is this a medical/treatment-focused program or more of a relaxation and spa experience?
Shathayu Retreat is treatment-focused Ayurveda, combining doctor-led therapies, Panchakarma, lifestyle guidance, yoga, and wellness — not simply a spa holiday.
Are the herbal medicines and oils prepared specifically for me, or are they standard, pre-packaged formulations?
Treatments are personalized based on the doctor’s assessment. Both customized preparations and classical Ayurvedic formulations may be used.
What is the food like, and can dietary restrictions, allergies, or preferences be accommodated?
Fresh Ayurvedic meals are provided and can be adapted for vegetarian, vegan, allergy, intolerance, and other dietary requirements with prior notice.
Do I need travel or medical insurance for this trip, and does the retreat help arrange it?
Travel and medical insurance is recommended for international guests. The retreat team can guide guests on insurance requirements and documentation.
Is there English- (or German/French)-speaking staff available throughout my stay?
English-speaking doctors and staff are available. German/French language assistance can be arranged based on availability.
What kind of follow-up or support do I get from the doctor after I return home?
Guests receive post-retreat guidance, medication/lifestyle recommendations, and doctor follow-up support, including online consultations when required.
