    What guests say

    Aavya is the kind of place guests find too late on their trip
    — and wish they'd stayed longer.

    "It's impossible to capture in words the beauty and restoration found in the Aavya experience. This is my second stay — a week this time — and it couldn't have been more ideal."

    — Guest review

    "We stayed for two days and had an amazing experience. The food in the café was extremely fresh and homemade. Activities, spa — all wonderful."

    — Guest review

    "Aavya is a peaceful and artistic retreat, offering a perfect blend of creativity and relaxation. Beautifully designed, very clean and comfy."

    Questions

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Simple: start any day, stay 3 or more nights, and build your own rhythm from our menu of movement and breathwork mornings, pottery or spa afternoons, sound healing or music evenings. Use the calculator on this page to pick your room, meal plan, and sessions and see a live estimate, or just message us on WhatsApp and we'll design it together in ten minutes. No fixed programme, no pressure to fill every hour.

    Three nights minimum, and yes. Unlike fixed-date retreats, there's no batch to join. You arrive when it suits you and your schedule is built around your dates. Longer stays earn bigger discounts: 10% off room and meals at 3 nights, rising to 20% at 7 nights.

    Three building blocks: your room (from ₹1,200/night for a Jungle View Sleep Pod up to ₹9,500/night for the Family Room), your meal plan (2 meals + tea & coffee at ₹800/day, or 3 meals + beverages at ₹1,200/day), and your sessions: movement ₹500, sound healing ₹800, guided pottery ₹1,500, spa from ₹2,800. Long-stay discounts apply automatically, adding more sessions unlocks activity rewards, and paying in full saves an extra 5%. The calculator shows everything live; final pricing is confirmed on WhatsApp.

    One of the best times for it. Monsoon (July to September) is Tapovan at its greenest and quietest, and everything on the menu (pottery, spa, sound healing, movement, the sauna) runs under cover, so rain shapes the atmosphere, not your schedule. It's also when flexible-date travel matters most: you can plan around the weather week by week rather than being locked to fixed retreat dates.

    Genuinely, yes. Choose zero sessions in a slot if you like. Some guests book a room and meals and spend their days with coffee, rain, and the forest. Aavya is not an ashram with a schedule and not a hotel with nothing to offer; the whole point of designing your own retreat is that "nothing" is a valid choice.

    Four types: the Jungle View Sleep Pod (shared 6-bed pod with AC/heating, ₹1,200/night, ideal for solo travellers on a budget), Terrace Studios with forest or mountain views (₹4,000/night), Premium Rooms including Temple View and Jungle Hideaway (₹6,000/night), and the Mountain View Family Room, a private floor with two bedrooms for up to four guests (₹9,500/night).

    Your calculator selections are indicative; actual session timings are confirmed closer to arrival based on our weekly schedule, which updates every Monday. Popular sessions like sound healing and spa run on set evenings, so tell us your priorities and we'll build your days around them.

    Yes. The calculator prices meals and activities per guest, the Family Room hosts up to four, and for bigger groups (friends, teams, private retreats) message us directly and we'll design something across multiple rooms. Monsoon weekdays are the easiest time to take over a quiet corner of the property.

    Send your calculator plan to us on WhatsApp (there's a button for it), we confirm availability and final pricing, and a 50% advance confirms your booking. GST applies as per rules. Pay in full upfront and you save an extra 5%. Just mention it in the chat.

    Upper Tapovan, the forested hillside above Rishikesh, about 45 minutes from Dehradun's Jolly Grant Airport. In monsoon, fly to Dehradun or take the train rather than driving from Delhi on heavy-rain days. Roads to Tapovan stay open through the season; send us your dates for an honest read.

    Yes. The Tapas circuit (sauna, ice bath, warm soak) is Rishikesh's first dedicated contrast therapy facility and monsoon is its best season, when rain-cooled air sharpens the hot-cold contrast. Add sessions at ₹2,000 each in the calculator, or if contrast therapy is your main draw, look at our dedicated Fire & Ice Tapas Retreat.
