Sitara Himalaya

Manali, India

off the beaten trackviews of the Himalayasspiritual retreat sanctuaryart of Indian hospitality

Clinging to the slope at 8,200 feet above the Kullu Valley, Sitara Himalaya invites you to experience a retreat devoted to reconnecting with nature and the cosmos. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of this property reserved for adults, across from Mount Meru – the very spot where Indian sages are said to have received the teachings of the Vedas which underpin Hindu religion. Like a family home with exceptional service, each room at Sitara Himalaya offers vast windows revealing snow-capped peaks. The interior décor is a blend of delicate local craftsmanship, expressed through Tibetan rugs and handwoven brocade panels, and English influences. The cuisine is local and respects the seasons, drawing on ancestral cooking traditions and techniques. A refined and soothing setting that resonates perfectly with the Vedic-inspired offerings – Yoga, Fire Ritual, Reiki, Marma – at the Paro Svasthi spa, the wellbeing space with a steam room, sauna, and small plunge pool with panoramic views.

Mangalam Sojourn

According to Ayurveda, everyone is composed of five major elements (known as Pancha Mahabhuta): Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Ether. These are associated with particular qualities, organs and emotions and correspond to the five physiological senses. Through guided meditation, yoga and massage, discover the balance between these elements, and relieve tensions in the body and mind in the process. A minimum duration of three days is recommended to fully enjoy the benefits of this trip.
