Visited this resort two weeks back along with my family. Had a nice experience. Visited this resort two weeks back along with my family. Had a nice experience. The location is excellent. The resort is located on the banks of the Periyar river. The place is very near to Malayattoor Pilgrimage. The weather was perfect. There is a lush green meadow with a small garden, where we can sit and relax listening to the ripples of the river and the murmuring sound of the bamboos.
Three types of rooms are available here.
Cottage room - 3k, A/c room - 2.5k, Non A/c room- 2k. Cottages were already full. We got a Cottage and an A/c room. The cottage room was fine, but the room amenities were not that great. The bedsheets and pillow covers seemed a bit worn out. The A/c and the Heater in the A/c room were not functioning. It was a bit frustrating but we adjusted. We didn't want to spoil the holiday mood.
The service was great. The staff tried their best to keep us happy. The restaurant is available, but not operational. Food was served from some outside hotel. It was good and not at all expensive. Breakfast was complimentary and tasted very nice. Ayurveda, Spa facilities are also available here. We didn't avail any, as we were running out of time. The staff was very helpful. As the A/c was not functioning, he gave a discount on room rents also.
Parking space available for 3-4 cars maximum. Don't worry, cars can be parked outside also. The road to the resort seemed like an off-road trip. ? Overall we had a nice experience and our family loved the trip.More

My recent 5-day stay at the Elephant Pass Ayurveda & Yoga Retreat has been nothing short of transformative. From the moment we were picked up from the airport to our departure, every detail of the "Special Yoga with Ayurveda" package was impeccably delivered, truly living up to the promises made.
The retreat's setting is a paradise for nature lovers, with its environment beautifully immersed in the tranquility of nature, providing the perfect backdrop for a rejuvenating getaway. The staff, under the watchful eye of the manager Mr. Abilash, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable, making us feel welcomed and valued. Their friendliness and dedication to guest satisfaction were evident in every interaction.
A highlight of our visit was the expert consultation and treatment by the in-house doctor, who demonstrated profound knowledge and understanding of our conditions. The treatments prescribed were not only appropriate but also highly effective, offering significant relief during our stay. It's rare to find such a personalized and thoughtful approach to wellness.
The yoga sessions, conducted by Master Pillay, were exceptional. With classes held in the afternoon and evening, the sessions were skillfully designed to cater to all levels, providing both physical and mental benefits. Master Pillay's expertise and calming presence made each session a unique journey towards inner peace and balance.
The culinary experience was another facet of the retreat that deserves high praise. The food served was simply delightful, with every meal thoughtfully prepared to complement our treatment and overall wellness journey. The balance of flavors and nutritional consideration made each dining experience a joy.
Our package also included well-organized sightseeing tours, allowing us to explore the beauty of the surrounding area without the hassle of planning. These excursions added an enriching layer to our stay, blending wellness with cultural exploration.
our time at the Elephant Pass Ayurveda & Yoga Retreat was an experience of pure bliss and healing. The team's dedication to providing a holistic wellness experience is commendable. I would wholeheartedly recommend this retreat to anyone looking to unwind and rejuvenate in the lap of nature, with the assurance of being in the hands of knowledgeable and caring professionals. Well done to the entire team at Elephant Pass for crafting such a memorable and impactful retreat experience.More

We spent 10 days in the resort in February and had an incredible time. We booked a package with full board and two treatments per day. The treatments were brilliant and the ayurvedic food absolutely outstanding. The resort is very well maintained and located directly on the river, with a beatiful view and stunning sunsets. We came to recharge, relax, sleep and eat healthy and managed to do all of that.
Yoga sessions must be booked and paid for separately.
The staff is very friendly, helpful and attentive.
Several excursions are possible from the retreat - staff will help with booking. Our advice would be to first spend a few days in Kochi and do all the explorations from there, and then go to the retreat. The elephant resort moved away several years ago and is now about 10 mins away by taxi.More
