I stayed for 2 weeks to treat Ayurveda. This is the first time to visit. Most of the staff were very kind and the location was very good. I was introduced to this Centre by my friend. Next time if I have an opportunity to visit here, I want to visit again. But it was rainy season so the weather was bad most of every day.

Diagnosis: relaxation with yoga
Somatheeram was the perfect hospital with resort facilities for a yoga vacation. The infrastructure and staff were wonderful. I also met great people from France and Germany. This is an amazing hospital for Ayurvedic treatments. The stay was so relaxing and guests could hang out after the treatments in their green treatment gowns, turbans and face masks. It was even cool to go to dinner or lunch in this outfit, I highly recommend this Ayurvedic resort.

My wife and I spent two weeks at Somatheeram Ayurvedic Center. The main purpose of our visit was to take advantage of the Ayurvedic treatment provided by the internists and doctors of the hospital. Situated on top of a hill with greenery all around (almost like a botanical garden) and overlooking the Arabian Sea, it is the perfect place to relax and enjoy daily massages and other oil treatments. Friendly and polite staff. Highly recommend to those who want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Hotel has a very green and beautiful territory. But beware that it’s very hilly and you will have to go up and down all the time. We stayed in Special Garden Cottage category. All rooms look like authentic Kerala houses (if you like only modern style you may not like it) but it has everything you need. Even a flat tv set, air conditioner (for an extra charge), and all miscarry amenities in the bathroom. Shower again a bit old fashion but ok. I really liked the space near the cottage with the hammock. WIFI was there but I heard it wasn’t great in all rooms. In our it was ok. The beach is nice and empty. The hotel put its own free-of-charge sun loungers and umbrellas. There is also a guard on the beach who looks after your personal belongings. The sea was refreshing and wavy but I still like it. To get to the beach you have to go down and then up for 10 minutes on quite hard steps. It can be a bit tiring. The Ayurveda Center is nice. Have no complaints about doctors or therapists. They looked quite professional. But I took only a couple of procedures there. Since we were not on proper Ayurveda treatment I liked that in the restaurant there was an al carte option with a Western meal and meat options (unlike a pure vegetarian Ayurvedic buffet). In the evening they provide some light entertainment like Indian dancing or music here or in the Manaltheeram Hotel. I think it’s a good option for Ayurveda treatment and quite relaxing beach holidays.
