Athreya Medical Resort in Detail

Your Ayurveda Resort

The Athreya Medical Resort is a family-run establishment, boasting Ayurvedic expertise passed down through five generations. Nestled in the serene, untouched nature of Kerala, surrounded by rice fields and coconut palms, the resort is located approximately 4.3 miles from Kottayam and close to the southern foothills of the Backwaters. The cottages and all other facilities such as the restaurant, yoga and meditation hall are built in the traditional Kerala style, using natural materials and wood. The resort combines medical precision with authentic Ayurveda, making it the ideal choice for guests seeking intensive, personalised consultation and professional Ayurvedic treatments. The focus here is on the proven Panchakarma therapy, which serves both to maintain health and to treat illnesses.

Location & Surroundings

The state of Kerala in South India is renowned for its numerous Ayurveda schools. Here, Ayurveda is not just a healthcare system, but a way of life. The monsoon season (June to October) provides optimal conditions for rejuvenating Ayurveda treatments due to the high humidity.

Dining & Leisure

In the Ayurveda Restaurant, vegetarian dishes are served according to your individually prescribed dietary plan. Various diets, such as for diabetics or gluten-free, are available on request.

Ayurveda Center

The Ayurveda Center is led by the highly experienced and modern Ayurvedic scientist Dr. Sreejith, supported by a qualified team of Ayurvedic doctors and therapists. Specialising in the treatment of lifestyle diseases such as metabolic syndrome (diabetes, obesity), migraines, insomnia, stress and its effects on the immune system, as well as cancer treatments. Traditional Ayurvedic remedies are successfully combined with Western medicine here. The necessary oils and herbal medicines are produced on-site at the family-owned pharmacy. A unique treatment by Dr. Sreejit is bloodletting, known for its immune-boosting and regenerative effects. To realistically assess the prospects of success of an Ayurveda therapy, the team offers personal consultations before and after the therapy via Skype or phone (in English). Additionally, a questionnaire to gather medical history is sent before the trip to best prepare for the patients' needs. On-site, guests receive a laptop daily to further optimise their stay based on constant feedback. Yoga and meditation enhance the therapy success. A modern and fully equipped dental clinic is available for dental treatments (payable on-site).

Free Time

Boat tours to the nearby Backwaters, temple visits, or a tour to Periyar National Park can be organised through the reception.

Hotel rooms at a glance

The Athreya Medical Resort welcomes you with 19 cosy cottages nestled amidst manicured gardens and expansive rice fields. Nearby, a traditional village where farmers live with their families enhances the authentic ambiance of the resort. The rooms are simple and functional, equipped with modern bathrooms and air conditioning. A mosquito net is available upon request for added comfort. Relax on your private terrace after treatments and enjoy the idyllic surroundings. On a small private island, just 150 meters from the main building, are eight more spacious rooms. These are especially available from November to February and offer a peaceful retreat, without air conditioning, but with Wi-Fi in the public areas of the resort. A highlight of the resort is the Rasayana Kuti Dark Room Therapy, conducted in a specially designed building with three protective layers. External influences are almost completely shielded, and the interior remains pleasantly air-conditioned – ideal conditions for intensive and focused healing.

Super! Everything was perfect. The therapists and medical care were excellent, but not a wellness vacation! I arrived with a huge black bruise on my right buttock. Nobody was allowed to touch it because it hurt so much. The daily one-hour

The daily one-hour additional special treatment led to the dissolution and disappearance of the bruise. It couldn't have gone any better. Another lady had the feeling that she couldn't hear properly and was immediately made an appointment with an ENT doctor.

I chose this place because of the high medical standards and the desire for an authentic Ayurveda retreat. My expectations were not disappointed, but exceeded. I was impressed by Dr. Sreejit's personal commitment and extensive and differentiated knowledge. Here, even without many words, it is quickly understood where the guest's individual issues lie and which solutions are effective. In addition to the treatments, many helpful tips are given on lifestyle, nutrition and other targeted measures. The aftercare of the healing therapies through continued contact is also highly commendable. I always felt that I was in good hands at this special place with very dedicated staff. When the time comes, I will gladly return here to recharge my batteries.
