Frequently asked questions
Manaltheeram is ideal for you if: Being close to the beach is a priority. You are new to Ayurveda and prefer a gentle introduction. Weight loss is not your primary goal. You’re looking for a relaxing experience rather than a rigorous Panchakarma detox. You prefer a gentle detox over an intense one. You value having a wide variety of food options. You must have coffee or chai every morning. If you can’t give up caffeine, Manaltheeram is a great option, as the buffet includes tea and coffee. Masala chai is also available on request. The main draw of Manaltheeram is its proximity to the beach and its focus on non-demanding, flexible Ayurveda. It’s perfect for those seeking a gentle, enjoyable retreat without the pressure of a strict detox.
Manaltheeram may not be for you if: Your main goal is weight loss. The extensive buffet may not be suitable. You’ve experienced Panchakarma before and seek a more intense detox, including treatments like Snehapana (ghee drinking) or Vamana (therapeutic vomiting). You have a complex health condition or chronic illness that requires specialized care. You’re on a tight budget; Manaltheeram may be out of your price range. You are highly introverted, prefer solitude, or are shy. A smaller boutique retreat might be a better fit. You strongly prefer a private beach; Manaltheeram is near a public beach. If any of the above apply, consult Aly Alidina at Ayurooms to find a more suitable retreat.
Manaltheeram is just a 1 to 2-minute walk from the beach, making it very accessible. However, it is a public beach, not a private one.
The daily schedule at Manaltheeram Ayurveda Beach Village begins early with herbal tea, followed by a morning yoga session. After yoga, guests enjoy a nutritious Ayurvedic breakfast tailored to their dosha. Mid-morning is reserved for personalized Ayurvedic treatments, while afternoons may include leisure time or wellness workshops. Lunch features seasonal, locally sourced dishes, and evenings often include guided meditation or cultural programs. Dinner rounds out the day with healthful Ayurvedic cuisine, ensuring a balanced and enriching experience.
If being near the beach is important to you, consider these alternatives: Somatheeram Ayurveda Village,Travancore Heritage, Rockholm at the Lighthouse Beach, Malika Ayurveda Beach Resort, Veda5 Ayurveda Living Village.

Both Somatheeram and Manaltheeram are owned by the Somatheeram Ayurveda Group, led by Mr. Baby Mathew. In terms of Ayurveda quality, treatments, doctors, food, accommodation, and pricing, there is no significant difference between the two. The key differences are: Proximity to the sea: Manaltheeram is closer to the beach. Ambiance: While Manaltheeram offers a relaxed atmosphere, Somatheeram boasts an infinity pool with stunning views. Manaltheeram is generally considered the superior property and tends to sell out faster.
Yes, Manaltheeram Ayurveda Beach Village is an excellent choice for Panchakarma.
