Yoga here pulls from ancient principles centered on steadying the senses and quieting the mind. Sessions happen in peaceful corners of the property, often with hill views framing the whole practice. It fits naturally into the resort's bigger wellness picture, giving you real space to slow down and just breathe.

Ayurvedic Retreat

Every program starts with a consultation to figure out your individual Dosha and Prakriti before anything else happens. You can choose from relaxation, detox, de-stress, weight loss, or yoga-focused retreats, each one personalized under the guidance of an in-house Ayurvedic doctor. Treatments blend traditional therapies, herbal remedies, and a Dosha-based menu built to bring your body back into balance. Set against the Aravalli hills, most guests walk away feeling noticeably lighter than when they checked in.

More about this escape

Marwari horse murals share wall space with mirrored ante-chambers throughout this palace, and somehow the clean, minimalist interiors never feel out of place next to all that history. A stepwell-inspired pool sits at the center of the grounds, framed by gardens that open onto views stretching across Delwara village below. Ayurvedic wellness in Udaipur runs through much of what happens here, with treatments built entirely around your individual Dosha. Several restaurants scattered across the property serve up Indian, Western, and Asian dishes, and a good chunk of the produce comes straight from the palace's own organic garden. Beyond the walls, guided trips take you to nearby temples, forts, and even one of the last working examples of old Mewar water architecture. It all comes back to one thing: old-world Rajputana, updated just enough for comfort.

Good to Know

Temple Dress Code

Most temples require you to remove shoes and cover your shoulders and legs. Wear slip-on shoes and carry a light scarf so you are ready at every stop without any extra planning.

Cash for Markets

Many small vendors in Udaipur markets prefer cash over cards. Bring Indian rupees before heading out since card machines are not always reliable at smaller stalls and roadside shops.

Ayurvedic Meal Support

If you are doing the wellness program, let the restaurant know so meals can be prepared to match your treatment. The kitchen follows Ayurvedic food principles and can adjust dishes based on your Dosha.

Private Screening Room

The room below the Darbar Bar is open daily from 10 AM to 8 PM and books up quickly. Ask the concierge to reserve a time slot on your first day if you want to use it during your stay.

Devanya is a four-bedroom homestay built into a hillside between Bhimtal and Mukteshwar, surrounded by thick forest and open sky. The villa runs on solar power and smart design, letting guests step away from city life without losing any comfort.

A Royal Stay Between Old Stone and Blue Rooftops

Three hundred years of sandstone history sits right next to a modern pool here, and somehow that combination just works. This Jodhpur heritage hotel sits close enough to Mehrangarh Fort that you catch glimpses of it from almost any room, yet the whole place still feels calm and private. Camel treks, market visits, and fort climbs might fill some days, while others get handed over entirely to the spa and an Ayurvedic treatment built around your own body. By the time you check out, Jodhpur's royal past feels less like a history lesson and more like something you actually lived through.

The Palace That Still Feels Like a Royal Home

Rajmahal Palace sits in the middle of Jaipur, pink and grand, holding onto its royal roots after nearly three hundred years. A Maharaja and Maharani once lived within these walls, and their presence still shapes the place today, from the old family photos to the marble staircase underfoot. Guests come here for something more personal than a typical hotel stay, drawn to the heritage hotels in Jaipur that let history sit right next to comfort. Between the gardens, the pool, and the quiet corners spread across every wing, the palace gives you plenty of reasons to stay longer than planned.

A Lakeside Camp Built for Wellness and Bird Watching

Rajput kings once carried their comfort with them on long journeys, turning simple canvas tents into homes fit for royalty. This luxury tented camp builds on that same idea, with roomy, soundproof tents finished in soft stone, warm wood, and gentle, muted colors. A short walkway connects your tent to a private deck by the water, and wide skylights let morning light spill in from above. You can spend your days here watching birds at sunrise, resting through the afternoon, and looking up at a sky full of stars once the sun goes down.
