The Sacred Lotus

The Sacred Lotus
Premium Resort
India / Kerala / Kochi

"The Sacred Lotus" was conceived with the purpose of offering an authentic Ayurvedic experience near Kochi, amidst the colonial heritage of Fort Kochi.

The term "Sacred Lotus" often symbolizes Sahsrara, the sixth and ultimate Chakra in Yoga philosophy. This Chakra represents the pinnacle of Kundalini, where the practitioner discovers the exalted Self and achieves oneness with the whole. At The Sacred Lotus, the aim is to inspire individuals through services and therapies, guiding them on the path to rediscovering their healthy Self and understanding its profound relevance to their existence.

Through the nurturing embrace of mud, the resilience of water, the warmth of sunlight, and the wisdom of Ayurveda, The Sacred Lotus blossoms into existence. This endeavor is a collaborative venture between RAVE Hospitality and Aarshaveda Wellness Private Limited.

RAVE Hospitality, spearheaded by enterprising individuals - Ramachandran Malayattil, Rakesh Maliakal, Abdul Rahim, and Parvathy Mohan, brings a wealth of experience in Hospitality, Medical Tourism, and Education, both in India and abroad. Aarshaveda Wellness, a third-generation startup, is dedicated to Ayurvedic and Organic products crafted authentically. They also delve into innovative Ayurvedic solutions that are user-friendly and effective. Their diverse portfolio spans Manufacturing of ayurvedic, organic, and nutraceuticals, Domestic/Export Retail and B2B, Private Labeling, Product Development, and Resort Management Consulting.

Venkatesh Anilkumar, the Managing Director of Aarshaveda, inherits a legacy of Ayurvedic practitioners from both paternal and maternal lineages. His Grandfather, Dr. K G K Panicker, founded the renowned Ayurveda Company - Kerala Ayurveda Pharmacy Limited (KAPL) and played a pivotal role in uniting Kerala's Ayurveda fraternities to establish the Kerala Ayurveda Mandalam in the early 1900s.

Growing up amidst the profound influence of this Ayurvedic heritage, Venkatesh naturally embraced the age-old science and its traditions. He contributed 7 years to Kerala Ayurveda Ltd, overseeing the wellness resort Ayurvedagram and clinics in Bangalore, Chennai, and Hyderabad. In 2015, he embarked on his entrepreneurial journey with the establishment of Aarshaveda Wellness in Aluva, Kerala.

These curated walks will guide participants to enchanting sites, including the iconic Chinese Nets, the historic St. Francis Church, the solemn Dutch Cemetery, the timeless Old Lighthouse, and the magnificent Santa Cruz Basilica.

In the domain of Ayurvedic consultations, an immersive exploration awaits, delving into the intricacies of one's physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This transformative process aims to unveil the unique energetic constitution, a harmonious fusion of the three Doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), deciphering the body type and existing imbalances. Following this, skilled Ayurvedic physicians craft a tailored series of experiences, complemented by a personalized diet and activity plan meticulously designed for the individual body type. This all-encompassing approach strives not only for equilibrium but also for the revitalization of vitality and tranquility, creating a holistic sense of well-being.

At the heart of Ayurveda lies a philosophy that aligns one's lifestyle with the natural rhythms of existence. Throughout the consultation, the merits of the curated experiences, dietary recommendations, and exercise programs are thoughtfully evaluated. Ayurvedic physicians share invaluable insights and essential guidance on incorporating lifestyle and dietary adjustments into the daily routine, cultivating a harmonious balance that extends beyond the stay. The result? A sustained commitment to well-being, restoring a radiant state of health.

The Sacred Lotus takes Yoga back to its roots, grounding it in tradition and purity, inspired by the ancient discipline of Hatha Yoga. This comprehensive and disciplined science acts as a harmonizing force for the mind, body, and spirit. It goes beyond the physical, aiming to restore perfect health while elevating consciousness to the sublime state of eternal bliss, known as Sat-Chit—the ultimate goal of Yoga.

Meditation practices at The Sacred Lotus draw from ancient Indian traditions, uniquely tailored to address modern needs. These encompass guided meditation and relaxation techniques, offering individuals a space to unwind and rejuvenate the entire body-mind system. By fostering harmony at the physical, mental, and spiritual levels, meditation becomes a transformative journey towards deep tranquility and rejuvenation.

Centuries of wisdom from Sages and Rishis, passed down through the ‘Guru-Sishya Parmpara,’ gradually found its documented expression in the Vedas. The medical wisdom within these ancient texts, primarily in the Atharva Veda, gave rise to Ayurveda.

Considered the Upaveda (applied knowledge) of Atharva Veda, Ayurveda stands as the Science of Harmony—an intricate balance of mind, body, and spirit. In essence, Ayurveda posits that when this balance falters, disease creeps in. Therefore, the ultimate pursuit of Ayurvedic healing is to restore and maintain this delicate equilibrium.

One of the most beautiful and serene properties I have visited. This is a old colonial building which has been converted into a ayurveda retreat. The staff is very helpful and courteous. They offered free yoga session and a ayurveda consultation. The food is strictly vegetarian and in limited quantity . All the places to visit in fort kochin is walkable. I will be visiting again for a long term weight loss program

Nice spacious room, elegant communal areas. Great range of wellness treatments, I.e. massage/yoga. But what made my stay extra special was the staff. I arrived a guest and departed a friend, really I have stayed no-where as memorable ever. Special mention to Ananthu, who was the best host ever! And Dr Ann, Dr Manu and the amazing kitchen staff who served the most delicious food. And also, Maya the yoga teacher. I will definitely return without a doubt.

The property is listed as a wellness and retreat - it’s serene and calm. The staff are friendly and courteous. The property does not cater to any guest needs. Breakfast is any one item - basic- and no options for any other meals as it’s primarily a hospital and this place is given out for extra income . It was a total shock for us as there were no other dining options/ only veg food can be ordered- tea / coffee only on request….. it’s also too expensive for the money they charge. My husband and I felt very very disappointed with our choice. We have been a long standing member of booking .com and we take your recommendations seriously. Most properties listed with you exceed expectations. This one was a nightmare….
