If you are looking to really getaway from the usual routines and stresses of your life, Shreyas is the place to visit. I spent 10-days here recently and Shreyas delivered everything I was expecting and more. There are so many good memories of my stay that it’ll be hard to be pick a few but here goes:
- Yoga, pranayama, meditation : the daily group yoga sessions are fantastic and conducted in a beautiful location. The teachers are very knowledgeable.
- Accommodation: I loved the garden cottage - it has a very close-to-nature feel to it. All the amenities you would need are available and the housekeeping staff is very diligent in ensuring your room is always neat and clean.
- Food: the chef and the kitchen staff are fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed the variety of food served during my stay and, because the food is wholesome and nutritious, could eat guilt free.
- Spa: The Anaha spa is great and they offer different types of treatment (Indian & Western) which are worth experiencing.
- Library: I loved the library collection and space and spent many hours there reading through books.
- Property: it’s a large property, though it doesn’t feel that way at first glance. I managed to find different routes for meditative walks each day
This review would be incomplete without mentioning the staff and their service. I guess I should just say “thanks” because every single member of the staff was so warm and wonderful. A big THANK YOU to everyone. Will definitely be back!

A must visit if you are in stress
I went to Shreyas primarily for yoga and meditation. But this place had much more to offer. I had no idea how stressed i was until i went there.
I spent a week but if feels less. I highly recommend a minimum of 14 days stay.
Every department of Shreyas was in sync with each other, from office to the doctors to yoga teachers to kitchen.
Dr. Manjula beautifully explained how i could take care of my health after going from there.
Food is exceptionally good!!
I think what makes Shreyas stand out is that entire staff also practices yoga. It all shows in their work.
i felt taken care till the last min when one of the staff members came and handed over packed snacks for my travel back home.

Soul changing!
I came to know about this property while i was searching destination for my boss and since then wanted to explore the same after my boss's excellent feedback, but it took me an year and finally when i was at the rock bottom of my health i visited them with super high expectations and Shreyas and its staff never disappointed me. I had sever back ache and it was take care beautifully, Rucha who coordinated our stay to sandhya who managed the office and the formalities to Dr. Manjula who treated me patiently to yoga teacher to shruthi and mangala, who did superb ayurvedic massages and cured me, to neelkamal and his staff who served us mouth watering food, all the activites were in sync. I was there only for 2 nights but this place is my temple now...:) I was so glad that this place was not commercial at all and was so calm and quiet. Room service was so good too.You all are God's angels. God bless!

Life Changing Experience
I was at Shreyas for One Week, I came to recharge self and to address other life challenges. Right from day one the personalized care and ayurveda treatments helped me stand up. The teachers, staff are very focused on energizing you with yoga, meditation, yognidra, paranayam, welcoming nature, diet friendly food and ayurvedic massages. The whole experience gets on to you and lives to the expectations. It's not just a life changing but a life saving experience. I'm so very grateful to a friend who recommended me to Shreyas. I'm truly indebted to the staff at Shreyas!! God Bless you all. You all are present day messenger of god!

My wife Miti and I first visited Shreyas back in 2009. All the people working at Shreyas stole our hearts back then and have done so every time we have stayed with them.
We have just come back from our 6th visit there and this time we stayed for 28 nights - our longest one by far.
If you have been to Shreyas then you already know why we love this place so much!
For those of you who have yet to experience the magic of Shreyas, here are just some of the reasons why this is our favourite destination:
* We love walking around the grounds: 24 acres of beautiful trees, plants, grass and vegetation, accompanied by the most melodic birdsong - you feel as though you are in the gardens of Vrindavan, almost as though they are beckoning Lord Krishna to come with his flute....
* We love the delicious food they serve: fresh, tasty, healthy and creative, it was like eating at a gourmet vegetarian restaurant each mealtime. I was eating so much that I was actually in danger of putting on weight at a yoga retreat and had to exercise a lot of willpower to restrain myself!!
* We love the yoga, meditation and chanting. The teachers here are really excellent: no matter whether you are a complete beginner or accomplished yogi, they know how to get the best out of you in each session. And there is a lot of variety and choice, including classical Hatha, Ashtanga and Iyengar Yoga. The daily post breakfast meditation and chanting sessions are really well conducted with a lot of wisdom imparted: you have the opportunity to ask any questions about meditation practice and about life in general:)
* We love the massages, they are a real treat. The therapists are experts, especially in Ayurvedic massages and treatments. Shreyas has built a lovely new spa with beautiful rooms and the whole experience is very relaxing.
* We love the attention to detail. Whether it is the fact that your rooms are cleaned/tidied several times a day, or the intricate decor at the dining tables, or the way your slippers (which you take off before entering the dining area) are discretely turned around to face the right way, we found ourselves smiling lots of times each day at all the little things they did for us :-)
* Most of all, though, we love all the people who make up Shreyas. Their humility and hospitality is out of this world: they work ever so hard (behind the scenes) to make your stay here as comfortable as possible. I haven't named any individuals, as I would then be making this review way longer than it already is.
I said at the start that the people here stole our hearts during our very first visit in 2009. And they have continued to do so each time we have been there.
If you are looking for a place that offers genuine, authentic yoga in luxurious surroundings then I strongly recommend you to go to Shreyas. And if you do, I hope they will steal your heart with their unconditional love like they have stolen ours...
