Shreyas Retreat
India, Indian SubcontinentIf you are looking to explore your spiritual side and improve your Yogi poses, then Shreyas retreat might just be your haven. A spiritual ashram with a touch of luxury.
Situated an hour north-west of Bangalore in 25 acres of lush gardens lies this charming yoga retreat. This retreat was designed by owner Pawan Malik, an ex-banker who wanted to create an escape experience where you can practice yoga and meditation and have a purely vegetarian diet in comfortable, peaceful surroundings. And so Sheryas was born. The atmosphere is decidedly laid-back, it’s your time to heal your body and mind and with a wide variety of classes and a full daily schedule, you can you do as much or as little as you want. The goal is rejuvenation and relaxation.
With 3 styles of cottages to choose from (Garden Tent Cottage, Poolside Cottage or 3 Bedroom Cottage) you will feel at one with nature as you hear the sound of birds and the rustle of the coconut trees, or watch the stars as you shower. The cottages are suitable for 2 adults. 2 children under the age of 8 can be accommodated free of charge (a mattress is provided). For guests who are very sensitive to sound or very light sleepers, we recommend the Poolside cottages. At night the property takes on a magical feel from the hurricane lamps that light the surrounds.
Food is a big highlight for the guests, and their varied menu is a delight. You can choose from a light American breakfast of fresh juices, toast and oatmeal or a tastier Indian version with idis and parathas. Lunch and dinner are grand affairs, both have four courses, and can be either Indian or Mediterranean. The ingredients are mostly from the garden, and are low in salt and sugar and high on flavour and spices.
