Thonse, Karnataka, India
Thonse is a small and quiet village, located on the west coast of India in the state of Karnataka, about 300 km south of Goa. It is rare to find such a beautiful and peaceful place, without air pollution, in India. In the winter months, the temperature is around 30-35º and the sea water is great for swimming, with 8-10 hours of sunshine per day. You can take endless walks on the beach and you won’t meet many people. An ideal place to relax and unwind, especially in combination with the Advaita Vedanta Retreat and a stay in the Ayurvedic center.
Thonse Health Centre
Thonse Ayurvedic Health Centre is located directly on a beautiful lagoon and a short distance from the ocean. The center is simple, is not commercial and therefore it is not expensive to stay there. The cost is about €150 per week, including everything the center has to offer: a private room with toilet, vegetarian meals, herbal teas, vegetable and fruit juices, etc. Also included is medical supervision by an Ayurvedic and a naturopathic doctor.
