Pros:

I almost don’t want to write this review because a part of me wants to keep Vajra a secret. Places like these are rare, and selfishly, I don’t want too many people to discover them and make them overcrowded.

I was honestly a little skeptical while booking Vajra. From the pictures, it felt a bit rustic, and I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. But after spending time here, my husband and I have already had a conversation about making it a point to return every year.

Vajra is truly a bubble of therapy, relaxation, nature, and healing. If you live a fast-paced, stressful life and simply want to step away from the noise and be immersed in nature while being genuinely cared for, this is the place.

Nestled amidst a beautiful mahogany forest, you are surrounded by greenery in every direction. The sound of birds chirping, the fresh air, and the sheer quietness of the place make you slow down almost instantly. During the rains, the property becomes even more magical - lush, misty, and incredibly peaceful.

The staff are incredibly friendly, accommodating, and exceptionally well-trained. Every interaction felt warm and thoughtful. We experienced several Ayurvedic therapies, including massages and Nasya treatments, and we left feeling deeply relaxed and rejuvenated.

The food deserves a special mention. It is exceptionally healthy, clean, nourishing, and yet absolutely delicious. Every meal feels thoughtfully prepared, and the entire experience contributes to a true sense of detox and well-being.

What truly sets Vajra apart, however, is the kindness of the people. On the day of our checkout, the rental car we had driven to the resort suddenly refused to start and needed a battery jump. Before we could even figure out what to do, the staff immediately stepped in to help. Several members of the team came together, offered assistance, and made sure we were taken care of.

Thank you Vajra staff 🙏🏼
Pros:

I loved that it is surrounded by nature and trees and you can walk to a beautiful forest called Mahagony Totham and wade in the river. It was very clean and everything was there that you could need.

Cons:

If there were screens on the windows to keep out flies and mosquitoes it would be nice. If you keep the windows closed and run A/C then no problem.

Stayed for 3 days with my adult daughters. We loved the natural beauty of the place. The Ayurvedic food and massages are
Pros:

Beautiful - surrounded by forests- very quiet so you could hear the birds and wildlife.

Cons:

Fly screens would be good to keep mozzies out whilst keeping windows open for the beautiful morning & evening breeze.

Jedenfalls gesundheitsorientiert
Pros:

Sehr persönlicher Service.
Die Organisation von Taxis hat super geklappt, sogar um 1:30 nachts für die Fahrt zum Flughafen.

Cons:

Der Pool hätte sauberer sein können.
Das Essensbuffet war sehr "gesund" - man muss wissen, worauf man sich einlässt.
Wifi hat zu Beginn nicht funktioniert, wurde aber ohne großes Aufhebens sofort repariert.
Unser Zimmer wurde 2 Tage nicht gereinigt, weil Housekeeping keine Schlüssel hat und wir auf Ausflügen außer Haus waren.
