Life... the journey that takes you beyond the sun, the sand and the sea to the soul of the beach.
And to experience this in a better way is the journey through Yoga.
A Voyage through a series of experiences that opens up a whole new way of life. A detour that makes you one with the elements. That's Swaswara. Sanskrit for inner vibrations, tucked away in thirty acres of peace by the secluded Om beach in the temple town of Gokarna, Karnataka, India. A new holiday environment that offers you not just the sun, sea and the sand, but a string of experiences that are unbelievably pure, unexpected and inspiring.
A specially built chamber for meditation. Coconut groves. Farms. Paddy fields... every detail here pays tribute to nature, to the community and the environment. You'll find this special focus on nature, even in the resort's cuisine that comprises fresh tropical fruits, vegetables and fish. Together, they help you enjoy the simple joys of life, to reconnect with nature, with life. Making Swaswara not just another beach getaway, but a sanctuary for the soul.
Your Space: There are just 27 villa style accommodations at SwaSwara. Each Villa, (and for that matter, the rest of the resort as well) is inspired by the traditional family estates that dot the Konkan coast, and if we've added aircon and modern fittings, they do little to disturb the authenticity of your experiences here. Natural materials are used throughout, most of them sourced locally from the artisans of the area.
The centerpiece of SwaSwara is the blue meditation dome, at the head of the swimming pool. Its circular form and blue tiles form a mandala ( or cosmic sphere ) of harmony, echoing the temple architecture of nearby Gokarna.
Swaswara - Yoga: At Swaswara, you can expect personalized attention from Yoga experts belonging to several major schools.
If you're new to Yoga, you can just sample a bit of it all, practising as the mood takes you. In spaces marked by timeless aesthetics and contemporary harmony, here is a new vision, designed to give the practices of yoga and meditation their fullest expression.
For more serious Yoga lovers, as also for people with specific ailments, SwaSwara offers a whole range of options. If you like, we'll create a therapy program just for you, complete with Yoga postures and Pranayama (breath excercises), meditations, diet and Ayurvedic massage.
Cuisine: The food at Swaswara is in keeping with the natural spirit that inspires everything else here. The accent is on the fruits of the land and the sea. And the focus is on freshness, pure and simple.
We avoid meats, concentrating on the fresh catch of local shellfish and seafish.
