Amal Tamara in detail

Hotel

Experience authentic Ayurveda overlooking Vembanad Lake at Amal Tamara, in the warm coastal region of the Alappuzha (Alleppey) backwaters, better known as the Venice of the East. A team of Ayurvedic doctors and therapists creates a holistic experience designed to bring about a transformation in quality of life. Amal Tamara’s NABH certification assures guests of a health and wellbeing experience shaped by the highest standards in staffing, guest care, safety and medication management. The family behind Tamara comes from a line of doctors who have practised Ayurveda since the early 1900s. Ayurveda at Amal Tamara focuses on the body’s natural ability to heal, helping it renew and rejuvenate. As a guest, you become an “Amal Yatri” and part of the community. Your experience as an Amal Yatri begins before you arrive and continues after you leave — holistic in the truest sense. The warm, thoughtfully designed accommodation offers privacy and comfort, with three room categories to choose from: Astha, Ekta and Idha Rooms.

Location & Surroundings

Alappuzha, also known as Alleppey, is a coastal town in the state of Kerala in south-west India. The town is famous for its picturesque backwaters, which form a network of rivers, canals and lagoons. From the backwaters, there are wonderful views of the breathtaking landscape of villages, rice fields and coconut plantations. Alappuzha is a beautiful destination that delights visitors with its natural beauty, culture and traditions, and offers one of the best ways to discover life in Kerala. Marari Beach, the nearest beach, is approximately a 20-minute drive away (10 km).

Food & Drink

Breakfast, lunch, an evening snack and dinner are individually tailored according to Ayurvedic principles and your dosha, based on the recommendations of your Ayurvedic doctor, your treatment plan and your health. All dishes are free from sea salt, refined sugar, flour and preservatives. The chefs place particular emphasis on freshness and use herbs from the hotel’s own garden. The dishes are easy to digest and designed to support the body’s natural defences.

Health & Cures

Amal Tamara’s NABH accreditation, awarded by the Quality Council of India and the National Accreditation Board, assures guests from around the world of the highest standards and practices in healthcare. You will be cared for by a team of three Ayurveda doctors, a naturopathy expert and 15 therapists. The Ayurveda centre has 6 treatment rooms designed in the traditional Kerala style. Traditional Ayurveda is practised here, with the guest, Ayurveda doctor, therapist and medicine working together to help you achieve your goals. Your Ayurveda doctor will tailor your treatment plan to your individual needs, and your treatment programme will be complemented by yoga and meditation sessions. A detailed assessment and consultation before your arrival enables the expert team to understand your needs, health concerns, wellbeing goals and specific requirements before you come to Amal. One aim of your Ayurvedic treatment programme is to bring about lasting lifestyle changes that continue beyond your stay. Ayurveda addresses your complaints from within by restoring balance among all the doshas. However, this is only possible if you continue to follow the Ayurvedic path after your programme at Amal Tamara. To support you on your Ayurvedic journey, the doctors are available for five further consultations online after your stay.

Leisure

A varied cultural programme takes place three times a week, alongside daily Ayurveda, yoga and meditation workshops. For example, learn how to prepare local dishes at home in a cooking class, or make herbal remedies and blends at a Kashayapura workshop. Backwater cruises, village tours and temple visits can also be booked locally for an additional fee.
